DESCRIPTION

The DAC904 is a high-speed, digital-to-analog converter (DAC)
offering a 14-bit resolution option within the SpeedPlus family
of high-performance converters. Featuring pin compatibility
among family members, the DAC908, DAC900, and DAC902
provide a component selection option to an 8-, 10-, and 12-bit
resolution, respectively. All models within this family of D/A
converters support update rates in excess of 165MSPS with
excellent dynamic performance, and are especially suited to
fulfill the demands of a variety of applications.

The advanced segmentation architecture of the DAC904 is
optimized to provide a high Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
(SFDR) for single-tone, as well as for multi-tone signals—
essential when used for the transmit signal path of communica­tion systems.

The DAC904 has a high impedance (200kΩ) current output with
a nominal range of 20mA and an output compliance of up to

1.25V. The differential outputs allow for both a differential, or
single-ended analog signal interface. The close matching of the
current outputs ensures superior dynamic performance in the
differential configuration, which can be implemented with a
transformer.

Utilizing a small geometry CMOS process, the monolithic
DAC904 can be operated on a wide, single-supply range of
+2.7V to +5.5V. Its low power consumption allows for use in
portable and battery operated systems. Further optimization can
be realized by lowering the output current with the adjustable
full-scale option.

APPLICATIONS

● COMMUNICATION TRANSMIT CHANNELS

WLL, Cellular Base Station
Digital Microwave Links
Cable Modems

● WAVEFORM GENERATION

Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS)
Arbitrary Waveform Generation (ARB)

● MEDICAL/ULTRASOUND

● HIGH-SPEED INSTRUMENTATION AND

CONTROL

● VIDEO, DIGITAL TV

For noncontinuous operation of the DAC904, a power-down
mode results in only 45mW of standby power.

The DAC904 comes with an integrated 1.24V bandgap refer­ence and edge-triggered input latches, offering a complete
converter solution. Both +3V and +5V CMOS logic families
can be interfaced to the DAC904.

The reference structure of the DAC904 allows for additional
flexibility by utilizing the on-chip reference, or applying an
external reference. The full-scale output current can be adjusted
over a span of 2mA to 20mA, with one external resistor, while
maintaining the specified dynamic performance.

The DAC904 is available in SO-28 and TSSOP-28 packages.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Burr-Brown
recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling
and installation procedures can cause damage.

ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation
to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric
changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.
