GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 are low power, quad
12-/14-/16-bit buffered voltage output nanoDAC® converters
that offer relative accuracy specifications of 1 LSB INL and 1 LSB
DNL with the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064 individual reference
pin and the AD5064-1 common reference pin options. The
AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 can operate from a single
4.5 V to 5.5 V supply. The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1
also offer a differential accuracy specification of ±1 LSB. The
parts use a versatile 3-wire, low power Schmitt trigger serial
interface that operates at clock rates up to 50 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and DSP interface
standards. Integrated reference buffers and output amplifiers are
also provided on-chip. The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1
incorporate a power-on reset circuit that ensures the DAC
output powers up to zero scale or midscale and remains there
until a valid write takes place to the device. The AD5024/AD5044/
AD5064/AD5064-1 contain a power-down feature that reduces
the current consumption of the device to typically 400 nA at 5 V
and provides software selectable output loads while in powerdown mode. Total unadjusted error for the parts is <2 mV.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Quad channel available in 14-/16-lead TSSOP packages.
2. 16-bit accurate, 1 LSB INL.
3. High speed serial interface with clock speeds up to 50 MHz.
4. Reset to known output voltage (zero scale or midscale).

this pin low allows any or all DAC registers to be updated if the input registers have new data. This allows
all DAC outputs to simultaneously update. This pin can also be tied permanently low in standalone mode.
When daisy-chain mode is enabled, this pin cannot be tied permanently low; the

low, it powers on the SCLK and DIN buffers and enables the shift register. Data is transferred in on the
falling edges of the next 32 clocks. If SYNC is taken high before the 32nd falling edge, the rising edge of
SYNC
acts as an interrupt and the write sequence is ignored by the device.
3 VDD

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy (INL)
For the DAC, relative accuracy, or integral nonlinearity (INL),
is a measure of the maximum deviation in LSBs from a straight
line passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function.
Figure 8, Figure 9, and Figure 10 show plots of typical INL vs.
code.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
DNL is the difference between the measured change and the
ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes. A specified
differential nonlinearity of ±1 LSB maximum ensures monotonicity. This DAC is guaranteed monotonic by design. Figure 11,
Figure 12, and Figure 13 show plots of typical DNL vs. code.
Offset Error
Offset error is a measure of the difference between the actual
V
and the ideal V
OUT
, expressed in millivolts in the linear
OUT
region of the transfer function. Offset error is calculated using
a reduced code range—AD5064/AD5604-1: Code 512 to Code
65,024; AD5044: Code 128 to Code 16,256; AD5024: Code 32 to
Code 4064, with output unloaded. Offset error can be negative or
positive and is expressed in millivolts.
Gain Error
Gain error is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the
deviation in slope of the DAC transfer characteristic from the
ideal, expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Offset Error Temperature Coefficient
Offset error temperature coefficient is a measure of the change
in offset error with a change in temperature. It is expressed in
microvolts per degree Celsius.
Gain Temperature Coefficient
Gain error drift is a measure of the change in gain error with
changes in temperature. It is expressed in parts per million of
full-scale range per degree Celsius.
Full-Scale Error
Full-scale error is a measure of the output error when full-scale
code (0xFFFF) is loaded into the DAC register. Ideally, the
output should be V
percentage of the full-scale range. Measured with V
− 1 LSB. Full-scale error is expressed as a
REF

REF
Digital-to-Analog Glitch Impulse
Digital-to-analog glitch impulse is the impulse injected into the
analog output when the input code in the DAC register changes
state. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in nanovoltseconds and is measured when the digital input code is changed
by 1 LSB at the major carry transition (0x7FFF to 0x8000). See
Figure 31.

PSRR indicates how the output of the DAC is affected by changes
in the supply voltage. PSRR is the ratio of the change in V

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 (or soft power-down
and power-up) while monitoring another DAC kept at midscale.
It is expressed in microvolts.
DC crosstalk due to load current change is a measure of the
impact that a change in load current on one DAC has to another
DAC kept at midscale. It is expressed in microvolts per milliamp.
Reference Feedthrough
Reference feedthrough is the ratio of the amplitude of the signal
at the DAC output to the reference input when the DAC output
is not being updated (that is,
LDAC
is high). It is expressed in
decibels.
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into
the analog output of a DAC from the digital input pins of the
device, but it is measured when the DAC is not being written
SYNC
to (
held high). It is specified in nanovolt-seconds and
measured with one simultaneous data and clock pulse loaded
to the DAC.
Digital Crosstalk
Digital crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC at midscale in response to a full-scale code change
(all 0s to all 1s or vice versa) in the input register of another
DAC. It is measured in standalone mode and is expressed in
nanovolt-seconds.
Analog Crosstalk
Analog crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC due to a change in the output of another DAC. It is
measured by loading one of the input registers with a full-scale
code change (all 0s to all 1s or vice versa) while keeping
high, and then pulsing
LDAC
low and monitoring the output of
LDAC
the DAC whose digital code has not changed. The area of the
glitch is expressed in nanovolt-seconds.

AD5024/AD5044/AD5064
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
DAC-to-DAC crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the
output of one DAC due to a digital code change and subsequent
output change of another DAC. This includes both digital and
analog crosstalk. It is measured by loading one of the DACs
with a full-scale code change (all 0s to all 1s or vice versa) with
LDAC
low and monitoring the output of another DAC. The
energy of the glitch is expressed in nanovolt-seconds.
Multiplying Bandwidth
The multiplying bandwidth is a measure of the finite bandwidth
of the amplifiers within the DAC. A sine wave on the reference
(with full-scale code loaded to the DAC) appears on the output.
The multiplying bandwidth, expressed in kilohertz, is the
frequency at which the output amplitude falls to 3 dB below
the input.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
Total harmonic distortion is the difference between an ideal
sine wave and its attenuated version using the DAC. The sine
wave is used as the reference for the DAC, and the THD is a
measure of the harmonics present on the DAC output. It is
measured in decibels.

THEORY OF OPERATION
DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTER
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 are single 12-/14-/
16-bit, serial input, voltage output DACs with an individual
reference pin. The AD5064-1 model (see the Ordering Guide)
is a 16-bit, serial input, voltage output DAC that is identical to
other AD5064 models but with a single reference pin for all
DACs. The parts operate from supply voltages of 4.5 V to 5.5 V.
Data is written to the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 in a
32-bit word format via a 3-wire serial interface. The AD5024/
AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 incorporate a power-on reset circuit
that ensures that the DAC output powers up to a known output
state. The devices also have a software power-down mode that
reduces the typical current consumption to typically 400 nA.
Because the input coding to the DAC is straight binary, the ideal
output voltage when using an external reference is given by

DAC ARCHITECTURE
The DAC architecture of the AD5064 consists of two matched
DAC sections. A simplified circuit diagram is shown in Figure 46.
The four MSBs of the 16-bit data word are decoded to drive
15 switches, E1 to E15. Each of these switches connects one of
15 matched resistors to either GND or the V
buffer output.

REFERENCE BUFFER
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 operate with an external reference. For most models, each DAC has a dedicated voltage

pin for all DACs. The reference input pin has an input range of

amplifier is capable of driving a load of 5 kΩ in parallel with
200 pF to GND. The slew rate is 1.5 V/µs with a ¼ to ¾ scale
settling time of 5.8 µs.
SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 have a 3-wire serial
interface (
SYNC
, SCLK, and DIN) that is compatible with SPI,
QSPI, and MICROWIRE interface standards as well as most
DSPs. See for a timing diagram of a typical write

sequence. The AD5064-1 model contains an SDO pin to allow
the user to daisy-chain multiple devices together (see the
Chaining
section).
Daisy-
SHIFT REGISTER
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 shift register is 32 bits
wide. The first four bits are don’t cares. The next four bits are the
command bits, C3 to C0 (see Tabl e 8), followed by the 4-bit
DAC address bits, A3 to A0 (see Tab l e 9 ), and finally the bit
data-word. The data-word comprises 12-bit, 14-bit, or 16-bit input
code, followed by eight, six, or four don’t care bits for the AD5024,
AD5044, and AD5064/AD5064-1, respectively (see Figure 47,
Figure 48, and Figure 49). These data bits are transferred to the
DAC register on the 32
executed on individually selected DAC channels or on all DACs.

There are three main modes of operation: standalone mode
where a single device is used, daisy-chain mode for a system
that contains several DACs, and power-down mode when the
supply current falls to 0.4 µA at 5 V.
Standalone Mode
The write sequence begins by bringing the
from the DIN line is clocked into the 32-bit shift register on the
falling edge of SCLK. The serial clock frequency can be as high
as 50 MHz, making the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1
compatible with high speed DSPs. On the 32
the last data bit is clocked in and the programmed function is
executed, that is, an
LDAC
-dependent change in DAC register
contents and/or a change in the mode of operation. At this
SYNC
stage, the
line can be kept low or be brought high. In
either case, it must be brought high for a minimum of 2 µs

The write sequence is seen as invalid. Neither an update of the

Daisy-Chaining
For systems that contain several DACs the SDO pin can be
used to daisy-chain several devices together and provide serial
readback.
The daisy-chain mode is enabled through a software executable
daisy-chain enable (DCEN) command. Command 1000 is

mode is enabled by setting Bit DB1 in the DCEN register. The
default setting is standalone mode, where DB1 = 0.
Tabl e 10 shows how the state of the bit corresponds to the mode
of operation of the device.
Table 10. DCEN (Daisy-Chain Enable) Register

The SCLK is continuously applied to the shift register when
SYNC
is low. If more than 32 clock pulses are applied, the data
ripples out of the shift register and appears on the SDO line.
This data is clocked out on the rising edge of SCLK and is valid
on the falling edge. By connecting this line to the DIN input on
the next DAC in the chain, a daisy-chain interface is constructed.
Each DAC in the system requires 32 clock pulses; therefore, the
total number of clock cycles must equal 32N, where N is the
total number of devices that are updated. If
SYNC
is taken high
at a clock that is not a multiple of 32, it is considered an invalid
frame and the data is discarded.
When the serial transfer to all devices is complete,
SYNC
is
taken high. This prevents any further data from being clocked
into the shift register.

The serial clock can be continuous or a gated clock. A continuous

clock containing the exact number of clock cycles must be used,

POWER-ON RESET
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 contain a power-on
reset circuit that initializes the registers to their default values
and controls the output voltage during power-up. By connecting
the POR pin low, the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1
output powers up to zero scale. Note that this is outside the
linear region of the DAC; by connecting the POR pin high, the
AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 output powers up to
midscale. The output remains powered up at this level until a
valid write sequence is made to the DAC. This is useful in
applications where it is important to know the state of the
output of the DAC while it is in the process of powering up.
There is also a software executable reset function that resets the
DAC to the power-on reset code. Command 0111 is designated
for this reset function (see Tab l e 8 ). Any events on
CLR
during power-on reset are ignored. The power-on reset
circuit is triggered when V
passes 2.6 V approximately and
DD
LDAC
or
takes 50 µs to complete. No writes to the AD5024/AD5044/
AD5064/AD5064-1 should take place during this time. For
applications which have a slow V
ramp time (for example,
DD
more than 2 ms to 3ms), it is recommended that a software
reset command is written when the power supplies have
reached their final value.
POWER-DOWN MODES
The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 contain three
separate power-down modes. Command 0100 is designated for
the power-down function (see Ta b le 8 ). These power-down
modes are software-programmable by setting two bits, Bit DB9
and Bit DB8, in the shift register. Tabl e 12 shows how the state of
the bits corresponds to the mode of operation of the device.
Table 12. Modes of Operation
DB9 DB8 Operating Mode
0 0 Normal operation
Power-down modes:
0 1 1 kΩ to GND
1 0 100 kΩ to GND
1 1 Three-state
Any or all DACs (DAC D to DAC A) can be powered down to
the selected mode by setting the corresponding four bits (DB3,
DB2, DB1, DB0) to 1. See Table 1 3 for the contents of the shift
register during power-down/power-up operation.
When both Bit DB9 and Bit D8 in the shift register are set to 0,
the part works normally with its normal power consumption of
4 mA at 5 V. However, for the three power-down modes, the
supply current falls to 0.4 A at 5 V. Not only does the supply
current fall, but the output stage is also internally switched from
the output of the amplifier to a resistor network of known values.
This has the advantage that the output impedance of the part is
known while the part is in power-down mode. There are three
different power-down options. The output is connected internally to GND through either a 1 kΩ or a 100 kΩ resistor, or it is
left open-circuited (three-state). The output stage is illustrated in
Figure 51.

The bias generator, output amplifier, resistor string, and other
associated linear circuitry are shut down when the power-down
mode is activated. However, the contents of the DAC register
are unaffected when in power-down. The DAC register can be
updated while the device is in power-down mode. The time to
exit power-down is typically 4.5 µs for V
= 5 V (see Figure 30).

POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING AND GROUNDING
When accuracy is important in a circuit, it is helpful to carefully
consider the power supply and ground return layout on the board.
The printed circuit board (PCB) containing the AD5024/AD5044/
AD5064/AD5064-1 should have separate analog and digital
sections. If the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 are in a
system where other devices require an AGND-to-DGND
connection, the connection should be made at one point only.
This ground point should be as close as possible to the
AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1.
The power supply to the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1
should be bypassed with 10 µF and 0.1 µF capacitors. The capacitors should be as physically close as possible to the device, with
the 0.1 µF capacitor ideally right up against the device. The 10 µF
capacitors are the tantalum bead type. It is important that the
0.1 µF capacitor have low effective series resistance (ESR) and
low effective series inductance (ESI), such as is typical of common
ceramic types of capacitors. This 0.1 µF capacitor provides a low
impedance path to ground for high frequencies caused by
transient currents due to internal logic switching.
The power supply line should have as large a trace as possible to
provide a low impedance path and reduce glitch effects on the
supply line. Clocks and other fast switching digital signals should
be shielded from other parts of the board by digital ground. Avoid
crossover of digital and analog signals, if possible. When traces
cross on opposite sides of the board, ensure that they run at right
angles to each other to reduce feedthrough effects through the
board. The best board layout technique is the microstrip technique, where the component side of the board is dedicated to the
ground plane only and the signal traces are placed on the solder
side. However, this is not always possible with a 2-layer board.

serial and multiprocessor communications. Using SPORT0 to
connect to the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1, the setup
for the interface is as follows: DT0PRI drives the DIN pin of the
AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1, and TSCLK0 drives the

conditions for correct operation of this interface are as follows:
The 68HC11/68L11 is configured with its CPOL bit as 0, and its
CPHA bit as 1. When data is being transmitted to the DAC, the
SYNC
line is taken low (PC7). When the 68HC11/68L11 is
configured as described previously, data appearing on the MOSI
output is valid on the falling edge of SCK. Serial data from the
68HC11/68L11 is transmitted in 8-bit bytes with only eight
falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. Data is
transmitted MSB first. To load data to the AD5024/AD5044/
AD5064, PC7 is left low after the first eight bits are transferred,
and a second serial write operation is performed to the DAC.
PC7 is taken high at the end of this procedure.

Figure 54 shows a serial interface between the AD5024/AD5044/
AD5064/AD5064-1 and the 80C51/80L51 microcontroller. The
setup for the interface is as follows: TxD of the 80C51/80L51
drives SCLK of the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1, and
RxD drives the serial data line of the part. The
SYNC
signal is
again derived from a bit-programmable pin on the port. In this
case, Port Line P3.3 is used. When data is to be transmitted to the
AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1, P3.3 is taken low. The
80C51/80L51 transmit data in 8-bit bytes only; thus, only eight
falling clock edges occur in the transmit cycle. To load data to
the DAC, P3.3 is left low after the first eight bits are transmitted,
and a second write cycle is initiated to transmit the second byte of
data. P3.3 is taken high following the completion of this cycle.
The 80C51/80L51 output the serial data in a format that has the
LSB first. The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 must
receive data with the MSB first. The 80C51/80L51 transmit
routine should take this into account.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
USING A REFERENCE AS A POWER SUPPLY
Because the supply current required by the AD5024/AD5044/
AD5064/AD5064-1 is extremely low, an alternative option is to
use a voltage reference to supply the required voltage to the parts
(see Figure 56). This is especially useful if the power supply is
quite noisy or if the system supply voltages are at some value
other than 5 V (for example, 15 V). The voltage reference outputs
a steady supply voltage for the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/
AD5064-1. If the low dropout REF195 is used, it must supply
3 mA of current to the AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1,
with no load on the output of the DAC. When the DAC output is
loaded, the REF195 also needs to supply the current to the load.
The total current required (with a 5 kΩ load on the DAC output) is
3 mA + (5 V/5 kΩ) = 4 mA
The load regulation of the REF195 is typically 2 ppm/mA,
which results in a 3 ppm (15 µV) error for the 4 mA current
drawn from it. This corresponds to a 0.196 LSB error.

The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 have been designed
for single-supply operation, but a bipolar output range is also
possible using the circuit shown in Figure 57. The circuit gives an
output voltage range of ±5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the

USING THE AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1
WITH A GALVANICALLY ISOLATED INTERFACE
In process control applications in industrial environments, it
is often necessary to use a galvanically isolated interface to
protect and isolate the controlling circuitry from any hazardous
common-mode voltages that can occur in the area where the
DAC is functioning. iCoupler® provides isolation in excess of
2.5 kV. The AD5024/AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1 use a 3-wire
serial logic interface, so the ADuM1300 three-channel digital
isolator provides the required isolation (see Figure 58). The
power supply to the part also needs to be isolated, which is done
by using a transformer. On the DAC side of the transformer, a
5 V regulator provides the 5 V supply required for the AD5024/
AD5044/AD5064/AD5064-1.
