10-Bit, 12-Bit, Multiplying D/A Converters
Description
The AD7520/AD7530 and AD7521/AD7531 are monolithic,
high accuracy, low cost 10-bit and 12-bit resolution,
multiplying digital-to-analog converters (DAC). Intersil’
thin-film on CMOS processing gives up to 10-bit accuracy
with TTL/CMOS compatible operation. Digital inputs are fully
protected against static discharge by diodes to ground and
positive supply.
Typical applications include digital/analog interfacing,
multiplication and division, programmable power supplies,
CRT character generation, digitally controlled gain circuits,
integrators and attenuators, etc.
• TTL/CMOS Compatible
The AD7530 and AD7531 are identical to the AD7520 and
• Full Input Static Protection
• /883B Processed Versions Available
AD7521, respectively, with the exception of output leakage
current and feedthrough specifications.

Definition of Terms
Nonlinearity: Error contributed by deviation of the DAC
transfer function from a “best straight line” through the actual
plot of transfer function. Normally expressed as a percentage of full scale range or in (sub)multiples of 1 LSB.
Resolution: It is addressing the smallest distinct analog
output change that a D/A converter can produce. It is
commonly expressed as the number of converter bits. A
converter with resolution of n bits can resolve output changes
-N
of 2
of the full-scale range, e.g., 2-N V
for a unipolar
REF
conversion. Resolution by no means implies linearity.
Settling Time: Time required for the output of a D AC to set-
tle to within specified error band around its final value (e.g.,
1
/2 LSB) for a given digital input change, i.e., all digital inputs
LOW to HIGH and HIGH to LOW.
Gain Error: The difference between actual and ideal analog
output values at full scale range, i.e., all digital inputs at
HIGH state. It is expressed as a percentage of full scale
range or in (sub)multiples of 1 LSB.
Feedthrough Error: Error caused by capacitive coupling
from V
Output Capacitance: Capacitance from I
REF
to I
with all digital inputs LOW.

Output Leakage Current: Current which appears on I

terminal when all digital inputs are HIGH.
Detailed Description
The AD7520, AD7530, AD7521 and AD7531 are monolithic,
multiplying D/A converters. A highly stable thin film R-2R
resistor ladder network and NMOS SPDT switches form the
basis of the converter circuit, CMOS level shifters permit low
power TTL/CMOS compatible operation. An external voltage
or current reference and an operational amplifier are all that
is required for most voltage output applications.
A simplified equivalent circuit of the DAC is shown in the
Functional Diagram. The NMOS SPDT switches steer the ladder leg currents between I
OUT1
and I
buses which must
OUT2
be held either at ground potential. This configuration maintains a constant current in each ladder leg independent of the
input code.
Converter errors are further reduced by using separate
metal interconnections between the major bits and the
outputs. Use of high threshold switches reduce offset (leakage) errors to a negligible level.
The level shifter circuits are comprised of three inverters with
positive feedbac k from the output of the second to the first, see
Figure 1. This configuration results in TTL/CMOS compatible
operation over the full military temperature range. With the ladder SPDT switches driven by the level shifter, each switch is
binarily weighted for an ON resistance proportional to the
respective ladder leg current. This assures a constant voltage
drop across each switch, creating equipotential terminations for
the 2R ladder resistors and highly accurate leg currents.
