AD5735
On-chip dynamic power control minimizes package power dissipation in current mode. This reduced power dissipation is achieved by regulating the voltage on the output driver from
7.4 V to 29.5 V using a dc-to-dc boost converter optimized for minimum on-chip power dissipation.
The AD5735 uses a versatile 3-wire serial interface that operates at clock rates of up to 30 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI, QSPI™, MICROWIRE®, DSP, and microcontroller interface standards. The serial interface also features optional CRC-8 packet error checking, as well as a watchdog timer that monitors activity on the interface.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

1. Dynamic power control for thermal management.
2. 12-bit performance.
3. Quad channel.

TERMINOLOGY

Relative Accuracy or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Relative accuracy, or integral nonlinearity (INL), is a measure of the maximum deviation from the best fit line through the DAC transfer function. INL is expressed in percent of full-scale range (% FSR). Typical INL vs. code plots are shown in Figure 8 and Figure 31.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is the difference between the measured change and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes. A specified DNL of ±1 LSB maximum ensures monotonicity. The AD5735 is guaranteed monotonic by design. Typical DNL vs. code plots are shown in Figure 9 and Figure 32.
Monotonicity
A DAC is monotonic if the output either increases or remains constant for increasing digital input code. The AD5735 is monotonic over its full operating temperature range.
Negative Full-Scale Error or Zero-Scale Error
Negative full-scale error is the error in the DAC output voltage when 0x0000 (straight binary coding) is loaded to the DAC register.
Zero-Scale Temperature Coefficient (TC)
Zero-scale TC is a measure of the change in zero-scale error with a change in temperature. Zero-scale TC is expressed in ppm FSR/°C.
Bipolar Zero Error
Bipolar zero error is the deviation of the analog output from the ideal half-scale output of 0 V when the DAC register is loaded with 0x8000 (straight binary coding).
Bipolar Zero Temperature Coefficient (TC)
Bipolar zero TC is a measure of the change in the bipolar zero error with a change in temperature. It is expressed in ppm FSR/°C.
Offset Error
In voltage output mode, offset error is the deviation of the analog output from the ideal quarter-scale output when the DAC is configured for a bipolar output range and the DAC register is loaded with 0x4000 (straight binary coding).
In current output mode, offset error is the deviation of the analog output from the ideal zero-scale output when all DAC registers are loaded with 0x0000.
Offset Error Drift or Offset TC
Offset error drift, or offset TC, is a measure of the change in offset error with changes in temperature and is expressed in ppm FSR/°C.
Gain Error
Gain error is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the deviation in slope of the DAC transfer function from the ideal, expressed in % FSR.
Gain Temperature Coefficient (TC)
Gain TC is a measure of the change in gain error with changes in temperature and is expressed in ppm FSR/°C.
Full-Scale Error
Full-scale error is a measure of the output error when full-scale code is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the output should be full-scale − 1 LSB. Full-scale error is expressed in % FSR.
Full-Scale Temperature Coefficient (TC)
Full-scale TC is a measure of the change in full-scale error with changes in temperature and is expressed in ppm FSR/°C.
Tot a l U n ad ju s te d E rr o r ( TU E)
Total unadjusted error (TUE) is a measure of the output error that includes all the error measurements: INL error, offset error, gain error, temperature, and time. TUE is expressed in % FSR.
DC Crosstalk
DC crosstalk is the dc change in the output level of one DAC in response to a change in the output of another DAC. It is measured with a full-scale output change on one DAC while monitoring another DAC, which is at midscale.
Current Loop Compliance Voltage
The current loop compliance voltage is the maximum voltage at the I programmed value.
Voltage Reference Thermal Hysteresis
Voltage reference thermal hysteresis is the difference in output voltage measured at +25°C compared to the output voltage measured at +25°C after cycling the temperature from +25°C to
−40°C to +105°C and back to +25°C. The hysteresis is specified for the first and second temperature cycles and is expressed in ppm.
Output Voltage Settling Time
Output voltage settling time is the amount of time it takes for the output to settle to a specified level for a full-scale input change. Plots of settling time are shown in Figure 23, Figure 48, and Figure 49.
Slew Rate
The slew rate of a device is a limitation in the rate of change of the output voltage. The output slewing speed of a voltage output DAC is usually limited by the slew rate of the amplifier used at its output. Slew rate is measured from 10% to 90% of the output signal and is given in V/µs.
Power-On Glitch Energy

Digital-to-Analog Glitch Energy
Digital-to-analog glitch energy is the impulse injected into the analog output when the input code in the DAC register changes state but the output voltage remains constant. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in nV-sec and is measured when the digital input code is changed by 1 LSB at the major carry transition (~0x7FFF to 0x8000). See Figure 25.
Glitch Impulse Peak Amplitude
Glitch impulse peak amplitude is the peak amplitude of the impulse injected into the analog output when the input code in the DAC register changes state. It is specified as the amplitude of the glitch in mV and is measured when the digital input code is changed by 1 LSB at the major carry transition (~0x7FFF to 0x8000). See Figure 25.
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into the analog output of the DAC from the digital inputs of the DAC but is measured when the DAC output is not updated. It is specified in nV-sec and measured with a full-scale code change on the data bus.
DAC-to-DAC C rosst a l k
DAC-to-DAC crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC due to a digital code change and a subsequent output change of another DAC. DAC-to-DAC crosstalk includes both digital and analog crosstalk. It is measured by loading one DAC with a full-scale code change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa)

THEORY OF OPERATION

The AD5735 is a quad, precision digital-to-current loop and voltage output converter designed to meet the requirements of industrial process control applications. It provides a high precision, fully integrated, low cost, single-chip solution for generating current loop and unipolar/bipolar voltage outputs.
The current ranges available are 0 mA to 20 mA, 4 mA to 20 mA, and 0 mA to 24 mA. The voltage ranges available are 0 V to 5 V, ±5 V, 0 V to 10 V, and ±10 V. The current and voltage outputs are available on separate pins, and only one output is active at any one time. The output configuration is user-selectable via the DAC control register.
On-chip dynamic power control minimizes package power dissipation in current mode (see the Dynamic Power Control section).

DAC ARCHITECTURE

The DAC core architecture of the AD5735 consists of two matched DAC sections. A simplified circuit diagram is shown in Figure 69. The four MSBs of the 12-bit data-word are decoded to drive 15 switches, E1 to E15. Each switch connects one of 15 matched resistors either to ground or to the reference buffer output. The remaining eight bits of the data-word drive Switch S0 to Switch S7 of an 8-bit voltage mode R-2R ladder network.

Voltage Output Amplifier

The voltage output amplifier is capable of generating both unipolar and bipolar output voltages. It is capable of driving a load of 1 kΩ in parallel with 1 µF (with an external compen­sation capacitor) to AGND. The source and sink capabilities of the output amplifier are shown in Figure 22. The slew rate is
1.9 V/µs with a full-scale settling time of 18 µs max (10 V step). If remote sensing of the load is not required, connect +V directly to V

tion. The difference in voltage between +V should be added directly to the headroom requirement.

Driving Large Capacitive Loads

The voltage output amplifier is capable of driving capacitive loads of up to 2 µF with the addition of a 220 pF, nonpolarized compensation capacitor on each channel. The 220 pF capacitor is connected between the COMP
LV_ x
Care should be taken to choose an appropriate value of com­pensation capacitor. This capacitor, while allowing the AD5735 to drive higher capacitive loads and reduce overshoot, increases the settling time of the part and, therefore, affects the bandwidth of the system. Without the compensation capacitor, capacitive loads of up to 10 nF can be driven.

Reference Buffers

The AD5735 can operate with either an external or internal reference. The reference input requires a 5 V reference for specified performance. This input voltage is then buffered before it is applied to the DAC.

POWER-ON STATE OF THE AD5735

On initial power-up of the AD5735, the state of the power-on reset circuit is dependent on the power-on condition (POC) pin.
If POC = 0, both the voltage output and current output
channels power up in tristate mode.
If POC = 1, the voltage output channel powers up with
a 30 kΩ pull-down resistor to ground, and the current output channel powers up in tristate mode.
The output ranges are not enabled, but the default output range is 0 V to 5 V, and the clear code register is loaded with all 0s. Therefore, if the user clears the part after power-up, the output is actively driven to 0 V if the channel has been enabled for clear.
After device power on, or a device reset, it is recommended to wait 100 s or more before writing to the device to allow time for internal calibrations to take place.
Simultaneous Updating of All DACs
To update all DACs simultaneously, data is clocked into the DAC data register. After
LDAC
is held high while
LDAC
is taken high, only the first write to the DAC data register of each channel is valid; subsequent writes to the DAC data register are ignored, although these subsequent writes are returned if a readback is initiated. All DAC outputs are updated by taking

SERIAL INTERFACE

The AD5735 is controlled by a versatile 3-wire serial interface that operates at clock rates of up to 30 MHz and is compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP standards. Data coding is always straight binary.

Input Shift Register

The input shift register is 24 bits wide. Data is loaded into the device MSB first as a 24-bit word under the control of the serial clock input, SCLK. Data is clocked in on the falling edge of SCLK.
If packet error checking (PEC) is enabled, an additional eight bits must be written to the AD5735, creating a 32-bit serial interface (see the Packet Error Checking section).
The DAC outputs can be updated in one of two ways: individual DAC updating or simultaneous updating of all DACs.
Individual DAC Updating

DC-to-DC Control Register
Slew Rate Control Registers
The four DAC data registers (one register per DAC channel) are used to write a DAC code to each DAC channel. The DAC data bits are D15 to D4.
The four gain registers (one register per DAC channel) are used to program the gain trim on a per-channel basis. The gain data bits are D15 to D4.
The four offset registers (one register per DAC channel) are used to program the offset trim on a per-channel basis. The offset data bits are D15 to D4.
The four clear code registers (one register per DAC channel) are used to program the clear code on a per­channel basis. The clear code data bits are D15 to D4.
The main control register is used to configure functions for the entire part. These functions include the following: enabling status readback during a write; enabling the output on all four DAC channels simulta­neously; power-on of the dc-to-dc converter on all four DAC channels simultaneously; and enabling and configuring the watchdog timer. For more information, see the Main Control Register section.
The four DAC control registers (one register per DAC channel) are used to configure the following functions on a per-channel basis: output range (for example, 4 mA to 20 mA or 0 V to 10 V); selection of the internal current sense resistor or an external current sense resistor; enabling/disabling the use of a clear code; enabling/disabling overrange on a voltage channel; enabling/disabling the internal circuitry (dc-to-dc converter, DAC, and internal amplifiers); power-on/power-off of the dc-to-dc converter; and enabling/ disabling the output channel.
The software register is used to perform a reset, to toggle the user bit in the status register, and, as part of the watchdog timer feature, to verify correct data communication operation.
The dc-to-dc control register is used to set the control parameters for the dc-to-dc converter: maximum output voltage, phase, and switching frequency. This register is also used to select the internal compensa­tion resistor or an external compensation resistor for the dc-to-dc converter.
The four slew rate control registers (one register per DAC channel) are used to program the slew rate of the DAC output.

ENABLING THE OUTPUT

To correctly write to and set up the part from a power-on condition, use the following sequence:
1. Perform a hardware or software reset after initial power-on.
2. Configure the dc-to-dc converter supply block. Set the
dc-to-dc switching frequency, the maximum output voltage allowed, and the dc-to-dc converter phase between channels.
3. Configure the DAC control register on a per-channel basis.
Select the output range, and enable the dc-to-dc converter block (DC_DC bit). Other control bits can also be config­ured. Set the INT_ENABLE bit, but do not set the OUTEN (output enable) bit.
4. Write the required code to the DAC data register. This step
implements a full internal DAC calibration. For reduced output glitch, allow at least 200 µs before performing Step 5.
5. Write to the DAC control register again to enable the
output (set the OUTEN bit).

REPROGRAMMING THE OUTPUT RANGE

When changing the range of an output, the same sequence described in the Enabling the Output section should be used. It is recommended that the range be set to 0 V (zero scale or midscale) before the output is disabled. Because the dc-to-dc switching frequency, maximum output voltage, and phase have already been selected, there is no need to reprogram these values. Figure 74 provides a flowchart of this sequence.

Gain Register

The 12-bit gain register allows the user to adjust the gain of each channel in steps of 1 LSB. To write to the gain register of one DAC channel, set the DREG[2:0] bits to 010 (see Tabl e 14 ). To write the same gain code to all four DAC channels at the same time, set the DREG[2:0] bits to 011. The gain register coding is straight binary, as shown in Tab l e 1 5 . The default code in the gain register is 0xFFFF. The maximum recommended gain trim is approximately 50% of the programmed range to maintain accuracy (for more information, see the Digital Offset and Gain Control section).

Offset Register

The 12-bit offset register allows the user to adjust the offset of each channel by −2048 LSB to +2047 LSB in steps of 1 LSB. To write to the offset register of one DAC channel, set the

DREG[2:0] bits to 100 (see Tab le 1 6). To write the same offset code to all four DAC channels at the same time, set the DREG[2:0] bits to 101. The offset register coding is straight binary, as shown in Tabl e 1 7 . The default code in the offset register is 0x8000, which results in zero offset programmed to the output (for more infor­mation, see the Digital Offset and Gain Control section).

Clear Code Register

The 12-bit clear code register allows the user to set the clear value of each channel. To configure a channel to be cleared when the CLEAR pin is activated, set the CLR_EN bit in the DAC control register for that channel (see Tabl e 24 ). To write to the clear code register, set the DREG[2:0] bits to 110 (see Tabl e 1 8 ). The default clear code is 0x0000 (for more informa­tion, see the Asynchronous Clear section).

CONTROL REGISTERS

When writing to a control register, the format shown in Tabl e 1 9 must be used. See Tab l e 12 for information about the configura­tion of Bit D23 to Bit D16. The control registers are addressed by setting the DREG[2:0] bits (Bits[D20:D18] in the input shift register) to 111 and then setting the CREG[2:0] bits to select the specific control register (see Tab l e 2 0 ).

When this bit is set to 0, Bit D11 of the status register is also set to 0. This feature can be used to ensure that the SPI pins are working correctly by writing a known bit value to this register and then reading back Bit D11 from the status register.
Reset Code/SPI Code
Option Description
Reset code Writing 0x555 to Bits[D11:D0] performs a software reset of the AD5735. SPI code
If the watchdog timer feature is enabled, 0x195 must be written to the software register (Bits[D11:D0]) within the programmed timeout period (see Table 22).
When the watchdog timer feature is enabled, the user must write 0x195 to Bits[D11:D0] of the software register within the timeout period. If this command is not received within the timeout period, the ALERT pin signals a fault condition. This command is only required when the watchdog timer feature is enabled.

DC-to-DC Control Register

The dc-to-dc control register allows the user to configure the dc-to-dc switching frequency and phase, as well as the maxi­mum allowable dc-to-dc output voltage. The dc-to-dc control register options are shown in Ta bl e 27 and Ta bl e 28 .

Slew Rate Control Register

This register is used to program the slew rate control for the selected DAC channel. This feature is available on both the current and voltage outputs. The slew rate control is enabled/ disabled and programmed on a per-channel basis. See Tab l e 2 9 and the Digital Slew Rate Control section for more information.

READBACK OPERATION

Readback mode is invoked by setting the R/W bit = 1 in the serial input register write. See for the bits associated with a read­back operation. The DUT_AD1 and DUT_AD0 bits, in association with Bits[RD4:RD0], select the register to be read (see ). The remaining data bits in the write sequence are don’t care bits.

Readback Example

To read back the gain register of AD5735 Device 1, Channel A, implement the following sequence:
1. Write 0xA80000 to the input register to configure Device
Address 1 for read mode with the gain register of Channel A selected. The data bits, D15 to D0, are don’t care bits.
2. Execute another read command or a no operation com-
mand (0x3CE000). During this command, the data from the Channel A gain register is clocked out on the SDO line.

FAULT OUTPUT

The AD5735 is equipped with a open-drain output that allows several devices to be connected together to one pull-up resistor for global fault detection. The
FAU LT
pin is forced active by any one of the
following fault conditions:
The voltage at I
OUT_x
range due to an open-loop circuit or insufficient power supply voltage. The internal circuitry that develops the fault output avoids using a comparator with windowed limits because this requires an actual output error before
FAU LT
the
output becomes active. Instead, the signal is generated when the internal amplifier in the output stage has less than approximately 1 V of remaining drive capability. Thus, the before the compliance limit is reached.
A short circuit is detected on a voltage output pin. The
short-circuit current is limited to 16 mA or 8 mA, which is programmable by the user. If the AD5735 is used in uni- polar supply mode, a short-circuit fault may be generated if the output voltage is below 50 mV.
An interface error is detected due to a PEC failure (see the
Packet Error Checking section).
The core temperature of the AD5735 exceeds approxi-
mately 150°C.
The V

DIGITAL OFFSET AND GAIN CONTROL

Each DAC channel has a gain (M) register and an offset (C) register, which allow trimming out of the gain and offset errors of the entire signal chain. Data from the DAC data register is operated on by a digital multiplier and adder controlled by the contents of the gain and offset registers; the calibrated DAC data is then stored in the DAC input register (see Figure 75).
DAC DATA REGISTER
GAIN (M)
REGISTER
OFFSET (C)
REGISTER
Figure 75. Digital Offset and Gain Control
Although Figure 75 indicates a multiplier and adder for each channel, the device has only one multiplier and one adder, which are shared by all four channels. This design has impli­cations for the update speed when several channels are updated at once (see Ta b le 3 ).
When data is written to the gain (M) or offset (C) register, the output is not automatically updated. Instead, the next write to the DAC channel uses the new gain and offset values to perform a new calibration and automatically updates the channel.
The output data from the calibration is routed to the DAC input register. This data is then loaded to the DAC, as described in the Serial Interface section. Both the gain register and the offset register have 12 bits of resolution. The correct order to calibrate the gain and offset is to first calibrate the gain and then calibrate the offset.
The value (in decimal) that is written to the DAC input register can be calculated as follows:

STATUS READBACK DURING A WRITE

The AD5735 can be configured to read back the contents of the status register during every write sequence. This feature is enabled using the STATREAD bit in the main control register. When this feature is enabled, the user can continuously monitor the status register and act quickly in the case of a fault.
When status readback during a write is enabled, the contents of the 16-bit status register (see Tabl e 3 3 ) are output on the SDO pin, as shown in Figure 5.
When the AD5735 is powered up, the status readback during a write feature is disabled. When this feature is enabled, readback of registers other than the status register is not available. To read back any other register, clear the STATREAD bit before following the readback sequence (see the Readback Operation section). The STATREAD bit can be set high again after the register read.
Rev. A | Page 39 of 48
AD5735 Data Sheet

ASYNCHRONOUS CLEAR

CLEAR is an active high, edge sensitive input that allows the output to be cleared to a preprogrammed 12-bit code. This code is user-programmable via a per-channel 12-bit clear code register.
For a channel to be cleared, set the CLR_EN bit in the DAC control register for that channel. If the clear function on a channel is not enabled, the output remains in its current state, independent of the level of the CLEAR pin.
When the CLEAR signal returns low, the relevant outputs remain cleared until a new value is programmed to them.

PACKET ERROR CHECKING

To verify that data has been received correctly in noisy environ­ments, the AD5735 offers the option of packet error checking based on an 8-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC-8). The device controlling the AD5735 should generate an 8-bit frame check sequence using the following polynomial:
C(x) = x
This value is added to the end of the data-word, and 32 bits are sent to the AD5735 before 32-bit frame, it performs the error check when If the error check is valid, the data is written to the selected register. If the error check fails, the bit in the status register is set. After the status register is read, FAU LT and the PEC error bit is cleared automatically.

ignored. If status readback during a write is disabled, the user can still use the normal readback operation to monitor status register activity with PEC.

WATCHDOG TIMER

When enabled, an on-chip watchdog timer generates an alert signal if 0x195 is not written to the software register within the programmed timeout period. This feature is useful to ensure that communication has not been lost between the MCU and the AD5735 and that the datapath lines are working properly (that is, SDIN, SCLK, and
SYNC
). If 0x195 is not received by the software register within the timeout period, the ALERT pin signals a fault condition. The ALERT pin is active high and can be connected directly to the CLEAR pin to enable a clear in the event that communication from the MCU is lost.
To enable the watchdog timer and set the timeout period (5 ms, 10 ms, 100 ms, or 200 ms), program the main control register (see Tabl e 21 and Ta bl e 22 ).

ALERT OUTPUT

The AD5735 is equipped with an ALERT pin. This pin is an active high CMOS output. The AD5735 also has an internal watchdog timer. When enabled, the watchdog timer monitors SPI communications. If 0x195 is not received by the software register within the timeout period, the ALERT pin is activated.

INTERNAL REFERENCE

The AD5735 contains an integrated 5 V voltage reference with initial accuracy of ±5 mV maximum and a temperature coefficient of ±10 ppm/°C maximum. The reference voltage is buffered and is externally available for use elsewhere within the system.

Tabl e 1 provides the performance specifications for the AD5735 with both the internal R resistor. The use of an external R performance over the internal R R

DIGITAL SLEW RATE CONTROL

The digital slew rate control feature of the AD5735 allows the user to control the rate at which the output value changes. This feature is available on both the current and voltage outputs. With the slew rate control feature disabled, the output value changes at a rate limited by the output drive circuitry and the attached load. To reduce the slew rate, the user can enable the digital slew rate control feature using the SREN bit of the slew rate control register (see Ta b le 2 9).
When slew rate control is enabled, the output, instead of slewing directly between two values, steps digitally at a rate defined by the SR_CLOCK and SR_STEP parameters. These parameters are accessible via the slew rate control register (see Ta bl e 29 ).
SR_CLOCK defines the rate at which the digital slew is
updated; for example, if the selected update rate is 8 kHz, the output is updated every 125 µs.
SR_STEP defines by how much the output value changes
at each update.
Together, these parameters define the rate of change of the output value. Ta bl e 34 and Ta ble 35 list the range of values for the SR_CLOCK and SR_STEP parameters, respectively.

The update clock frequency for any given value is the same for all output ranges. The step size, however, varies across output ranges for a given value of step size because the LSB size is different for each output range.
When the slew rate control feature is enabled, all output changes occur at the programmed slew rate (see the DC-to-DC Converter Settling Time section for more information). For example, if the CLEAR pin is asserted, the output slews to the clear value at the programmed slew rate (assuming that the channel is enabled to be cleared).
If more than one channel is enabled for digital slew rate control, care must be taken when asserting the CLEAR pin. If a channel under slew rate control is slewing when the CLEAR pin is asserted, other channels under slew rate control may change directly to their clear code not under slew rate control.

DYNAMIC POWER CONTROL

When configured in current output mode, the AD5735 provides integrated dynamic power control using a dc-to-dc boost converter circuit. This circuit reduces power consumption compared with standard designs.
In standard current input module designs, the load resistor values can range from typically 50 Ω to 750 Ω. Output module systems must source enough voltage to meet the compliance voltage requirement across the full range of load resistor values. For example, in a 4 mA to 20 mA loop when driving 20 mA, a compliance voltage of >15 V is required. When driving 20 mA into a 50 Ω load, a compliance voltage of only 1 V is required.
The AD5735 circuitry senses the output voltage and regulates this voltage to meet the compliance requirements plus a small headroom voltage. The AD5735 is capable of driving up to 24 mA through a 1 kΩ load.

DC-to-DC Converter Operation

The on-board dc-to-dc converters use a constant frequency, peak current mode control scheme to step up an AV
CC
to 5.5 V to drive the AD5735 output channel. These converters are designed to operate in discontinuous conduction mode with a duty cycle of <90% typical. Discontinuous conduction mode refers to a mode of operation where the inductor current goes to zero for an appreciable percentage of the switching cycle. The dc-to-dc converters are nonsynchronous; that is, they require an external Schottky diode.

DC-to-DC Converter Output Voltage

When a channel current output is enabled, the converter regulates the V
supply to 7.4 V (±5%) or (I

The AD5735 contains a 0.425 Ω internal switch. The switch current is monitored on a pulse-by-pulse basis and is limited to 0.8 A peak current.

DC-to-DC Converter Switching Frequency and Phase

The AD5735 dc-to-dc converter switching frequency can be selected from the dc-to-dc control register (see Tab l e 2 8 ). The phasing of the channels can also be adjusted so that the dc-to-dc converters can clock on different edges. For typical applications, a 410 kHz frequency is recommended. At light loads (low output current and small load resistor), the dc-to-dc converter enters a pulse-skipping mode to minimize switching power dissipation.

DC-to-DC Converter Inductor Selection

For typical 4 mA to 20 mA applications, a 10 µH inductor (such as the XAL4040-103 from Coilcraft), combined with a switching frequency of 410 kHz, allows up to 24 mA to be driven into a load resistance of up to 1 kΩ with an AV
5.5 V. It is important to ensure that the inductor can handle the peak current without saturating, especially at the maximum ambient temperature. If the inductor enters saturation mode, efficiency decreases. The inductance value also drops during saturation and may result in the dc-to-dc converter circuit not being able to supply the required output power.

DC-to-DC Converter External Schottky Diode Selection

The AD5735 requires an external Schottky diode for correct operation. Ensure that the Schottky diode is rated to handle the maximum reverse breakdown voltage expected in operation and that the maximum junction temperature of the diode is not exceeded. The average current of the diode is approximately equal to the I
current. Diodes with larger forward voltage
LOAD
drops result in a decrease in efficiency.

DC-to-DC Converter Compensation Capacitors

Because the dc-to-dc converter operates in discontinuous conduc­tion mode, the uncompensated transfer function is essentially a single-pole transfer function. The pole frequency of the transfer function is determined by the output capacitance, input and output voltage, and output load of the dc-to-dc converter. The AD5735 uses an external capacitor in conjunction with an internal 150 kΩ resistor to compensate the regulator loop.
Alternatively, an external compensation resistor can be used in series with the compensation capacitor by setting the DC-DC comp bit in the dc-to-dc control register (see Tab l e 2 8 ). In this case, a resistor of ~50 kΩ is recommended. The advantages of this configuration are described in the AI
Supply Requirements—
CC
Slewing section. For typical applications, a 10 nF dc-to-dc com­pensation capacitor is recommended.

DC-to-DC Converter Input and Output Capacitor Selection

The output capacitor affects the ripple voltage of the dc-to-dc converter and indirectly limits the maximum slew rate at which the channel output current can rise. The ripple voltage is caused by a combination of the capacitance and the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the capacitor. For typical applications, a ceramic capacitor of 4.7 µF is recommended. Larger capacitors or parallel capacitors improve the ripple at the expense of reduced slew rate. Larger capacitors also affect the current requirements of the AV
supply while slewing (see the AICC
CC
Supply Requirements—Slewing section). The capacitance at the output of the dc-to-dc converter should be >3 µF under all operating conditions.
The input capacitor provides much of the dynamic current required for the dc-to-dc converter and should be a low ESR component. For the AD5735, a low ESR tantalum or ceramic capacitor of 10 µF is recommended for typical applications. Ceramic capacitors must be chosen carefully because they can exhibit a large sensitivity to dc bias voltages and temperature. X5R or X7R dielectrics are preferred because these capacitors remain stable over wider operating voltage and temperature ranges. Care must be taken if selecting a tantalum capacitor to ensure a low ESR value.

AICC SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS—SLEWING

The AICC current requirement while slewing is greater than in static operation because the output power increases to charge the output capacitance of the dc-to-dc converter.

Reducing AICC Current Requirements

Two main methods can be used to reduce the AICC current requirements. One method is to add an external compensation resistor, and the other is to use slew rate control. These methods can be used together.
Adding an External Compensation Resistor
A compensation resistor can be placed at the COMP

When using slew rate control, it is important to remember that the output cannot slew faster than the dc-to-dc converter. The dc-to-dc converter slews slowest at higher currents through large loads (for example, 1 kΩ). The slew rate is also dependent on the configuration of the dc-to-dc converter. Two examples of the dc-to-dc converter output slew are shown in Figure 80 and Figure 81. (V

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

VOLTAGE AND CURRENT OUTPUT PINS ON THE SAME TERMINAL

When using a channel of the AD5735, the current and voltage output pins can be connected to two separate terminals or tied together and connected to a single terminal. The two output pins can be tied together because only the voltage output or the current output can be enabled at any one time. When the current output is enabled, the voltage output is in tristate mode, and when the voltage output is enabled, the current output is in tristate mode. When the two output pins are tied together, the POC pin must be tied low and the POC bit in the main control register set to 0, or, if the POC pin is tied high, the POC bit in the main control register must be set to 1 before the current output is enabled.
As shown in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section, the output tolerances are the same for both the voltage and current output pins. The +V that current leakage into these pins is negligible when the part is operated in current output mode.
CURRENT OUTPUT MODE WITH INTERNAL R
When using the internal R the output is significantly affected by how many other channels using the internal R these channels. The internal R for all four channels enabled with the internal R outputting the same code.
For every channel enabled with the internal R decreases. For example, with one current output enabled using the internal R proportionally as more current channels are enabled; the offset error is 0.056% FSR on each of two channels, 0.029% FSR on each of three channels, and 0.01% FSR on each of four channels.
Similarly, the dc crosstalk when using the internal R tional to the number of current output channels enabled with the internal R and another channel going from zero to full scale, the dc crosstalk is −0.011% FSR. With two other channels going from zero to full scale, the dc crosstalk is −0.019% FSR, and with all three other channels going from zero to full scale, it is −0.025% FSR.
For the full-scale error measurement in Tab l e 1 , all channels are at 0xFFFF. This means that as any channel goes to zero scale, the full-scale error increases due to the dc crosstalk. For example,

PRECISION VOLTAGE REFERENCE SELECTION

To achieve the optimum performance from the AD5735 over its full operating temperature range, a precision voltage reference must be used. Care should be taken with the selection of the precision voltage reference. The voltage applied to the reference inputs is used to provide a buffered reference for the DAC cores. Therefore, any error in the voltage reference is reflected in the outputs of the AD5735.
Four possible sources of error must be considered when choosing a voltage reference for high accuracy applications: initial accuracy, long-term drift, temperature coefficient of the output voltage, and output voltage noise.
Initial accuracy error on the output voltage of an external ref­erence can lead to a full-scale error in the DAC. Therefore, to minimize these errors, a reference with a low initial accuracy error specification is preferred. Choosing a reference with an output trim adjustment, such as the ADR435, allows a system designer to trim out system errors by setting the reference voltage to a voltage other than the nominal. The trim adjust­ment can be used at any temperature to trim out any error.
Long-term drift is a measure of how much the reference output voltage drifts over time. A reference with a tight long-term drift specification ensures that the overall solution remains relatively stable over its entire lifetime.
The temperature coefficient of the reference output voltage affects INL, DNL, and TUE. A reference with a tight temperature coef­ficient specification should be chosen to reduce the dependence of the DAC output voltage on ambient temperature.
In high accuracy applications, which have a relatively low noise budget, reference output voltage noise must be considered. Choos­ing a reference with as low an output noise voltage as practical for the system resolution required is important. Precision voltage references such as the ADR435 (XFET® design) produce low output noise in the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz bandwidth. However, as the circuit bandwidth increases, filtering the output of the reference may be required to minimize the output noise.

When driving inductive or poorly defined loads, a capacitor may be required between the I ensure stability. A 0.01 µF capacitor between I
pin and the AGND pin to

and AGND

ensures stability of a load of 50 mH. The capacitive component of the load may cause slower settling, although this may be masked by the settling time of the AD5735. There is no maxi­mum capacitance limit for the current output of the AD5735.

TRANSIENT VOLTAGE PROTECTION

The AD5735 contains ESD protection diodes that prevent dam­age from normal handling. The industrial control environment can, however, subject I/O circuits to much higher transients. To protect the AD5735 from excessively high voltage transients, external power diodes and a surge current limiting resistor (R are required, as shown in Figure 83.

Further protection can be provided using transient voltage suppressors (TVSs), also referred to as transorbs. These compo­nents are available as unidirectional suppressors, which protect against positive high voltage transients, and as bidirectional suppressors, which protect against both positive and negative high voltage transients. Transient voltage suppressors are avail­able in a wide range of standoff and breakdown voltage ratings. The TVS should be sized with the lowest breakdown voltage possible while not conducting in the functional range of the current output.
It is recommended that all field connected nodes be protected. The voltage output node can be protected with a similar circuit, where D2 and the transorb are connected to AV age output node, the +V

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING

Microprocessor interfacing to the AD5735 is via a serial bus that uses a protocol compatible with microcontrollers and DSP processors. The communication channel is a 3-wire minimum interface consisting of a clock signal, a data signal, and a latch signal. The AD5735 requires a 24-bit data-word with data valid on the falling edge of SCLK.
The DAC output update is initiated either on the rising edge of LDAC
or, if
LDAC
is held low, on the rising edge of
SYNC
. The
contents of the registers can be read using the readback function.

AD5735-to-ADSP-BF527 Interface

The AD5735 can be connected directly to the SPORT interface of the ADSP-BF527, an Analog Devices, Inc., Blackfin® DSP. Figure 84 shows how the SPORT interface can be connected to control the AD5735.

LAYOUT GUIDELINES

Grounding

In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful consider­ation of the power supply and ground return layout helps to ensure the rated performance. The printed circuit board on which the AD5735 is mounted should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. If the AD5735 is in a system where multiple devices require an AGND-to-DGND connection, the connection should be made at one point only. The star ground point should be established as close as possible to the device.
The GNDSW supply are referred to as PGND. PGND should be confined to certain areas of the board, and the PGND-to-AGND connection should be made at one point only.

Supply Decoupling

The AD5735 should have ample supply bypassing of 10 µF in parallel with 0.1 µF on each supply, located as close to the package as possible, ideally right up against the device. The 10 µF capac­itors are the tantalum bead type. The 0.1 µF capacitors should have low effective series resistance (ESR) and low effective series inductance (ESL), such as the common ceramic types, which provide a low impedance path to ground at high frequencies to handle transient currents due to internal logic switching.

Traces

The power supply lines of the AD5735 should use as large a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching signals su
ch as clocks should be shielded with digital ground to prevent radi­ating noise to other parts of the board and should never be run near the reference inputs. A ground line routed between the SDIN and SCLK traces helps reduce crosstalk between them (not required on a multilayer board that has a separate ground plan but separating the lines helps). It is essential to minimize noise on the REFIN line because it couples through to the DAC output.
Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on oppo­site sides of the board should run at right angles to each other to reduce the effects of feedthrough on the board.

GALVANICALLY ISOLATED INTERFACE

In many process control applications, it is necessary to provide an isolation barrier between the controller and the unit being controlled to protect and isolate the controlling circuitry from any hazardous common-mode voltages that may occur. The Analog Devices iCoupler® products can provide voltage isolation in excess of 2.5 kV. The serial loading structure of the AD5735 makes it ideal for isolated interfaces because the number of inter­face lines is kept to a minimum.
