GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The SPT9713 is a 12-bit, 100 MWPS digital-to-analog
converter designed for direct digital synthesis, high reso­lution imaging, and arbitrary wavef orm generation applica­tions.

This device is pin-for-pin compatib le with the AD9713 with
significantly improved performance. The only difference
between the SPT9713 and the AD9713 is that the Latch
Enable (LE, pin 26) for the SPT9713 is rising-edge trig-

APPLICATIONS

• Fast frequency hopping spread spectrum radios

• Direct sequence spread spectrum radios

• Microwave and satellite modems

• Test & measurement instr umentation

gered (see figure 1), whereas the Latch Enable (LE, pin

26) for the AD9713 functions in the transparent mode.
The SPT9713 is a TTL-compatible device. It features a

fast settling time of 13 ns and low glitch impulse energy of
15 pV-s, which results in excellent spurious-free dynamic
range characteristics.

The SPT9713 is available in a 28-lead PLCC package in
the industrial temperature range (–40 to +85 °C).

THEORY OF OPERATION

VOLT AGE REFERENCE

The SPT9713 uses a segmented architecture incorporat­ing most significant bit (MSB) decoding. The four MSBs
(D1–D4) are decoded to thermometer code lines to drive
15 discrete current sinks. For the eight least significant
bits (LSBs), D5 and D6 are binary weighted and D7–D12
are applied to the R-2R network. The 12-bit decoded data
is input to internal master/slave latches. The latched data
is input to the switching network and is presented on the
output pins as complementary current outputs.

TYPICAL INTERFACE CIRCUIT

The SPT9713 requires few external components to
achieve the stated operation and performance. Figure 2
shows the typical interface requirements when using the
SPT9713 in normal circuit operation. The following sec­tions provide descriptions of the pin functions and outline
critical performance criteria to consider for achieving opti­mal device performance.

POWER SUPPLIES AND GR OUNDING

The SPT9713 requires the use of +5 V and –5.2 V sup­plies. All supplies should be treated as analog supply
sources. This means the ground returns of the device
should be connected to the analog ground plane. All sup­ply pins should be bypassed with .01 µF and 10 µF
decoupling capacitors as close to the device as possible .

The two grounds available on the SPT9713 are DGND
and AGND . These grounds are not tied together internal to
the device. The use of ground planes is recommended to
achieve the best perf ormance of the SPT9713. All g round,
reference and analog output pins should be tied directly to
the DAC ground plane. The DAC and system ground
planes should be separate from each other and only con­nected at a single point through a ferrite bead to reduce
ground noise pickup.

DIGITAL INPUTS AND TIMING

The SPT9713 uses TTL logic drivers for each data input
D1–D12 and Latch Enable. It also employs master/slave
latches to simplify digital interface timing requirements
and reduce glitch energy by synchronizing the current
switches. This is an improv ement over the AD9713, which
typically requires external latches for digital input synchro­nization.

When using the internal reference, Ref Out should be con­nected to Control Amp In and decoupled with a 0.1 µF
capacitor. Control Amp Out should be connected to Ref In
and decoupled to the analog supply. (See figure 2.)

Full-scale output current is determined by Control Amp In
and R

using the following formula:

Set

I

(FS) = (Control Amp In / R

Out

) x 128

Set

(Current Out is a constant 128 factor of the
reference current)

The internal reference is typically –1.20 V with a tolerance
of ±0.05 V and a typical drift of 50 ppm/°C. If greater accu­racy or temperature stability is required, an external refer­ence can be utilized.

OUTPUTS

The output of the SPT9713 is comprised of complemen­tary current sinks, I
at either I

Out

or I
The sum of the two is always equal to the full-scale output
current minus one LSB.

By terminating the output current through a resistive load
to ground, an associated voltage develops. The effective
resistive load (R

) in parallel with the resistive load (RL). The voltage

formulas:

Control Amp Out = –1.2 V, and R

Referring to figure 1, data is latched into the DAC on the
rising edge of the latch enable clock with the associated
setup and hold times. The output transition occurs after a
typical 2 ns propagation delay and settles to within ±1 LSB
in typically 13 ns. Because of the SPT9713’s rising-edge
triggering, no timing changes are required when replacing
an AD9713 operating in the transparent mode.
