The TLC5620C and TLC5620I are quadruple 8-bit voltage output digital-to-analog converters (DACs) with
buffered reference inputs (high impedance). The DACs produce an output voltage that ranges between either
one or two times the reference voltages and GND, and the DACs are monotonic. The device is simple to use,
running from a single supply of 5 V. A power-on reset function is incorporated to ensure repeatable start-up
conditions.
Digital control of the TLC5620C and TLC5620I are over a simple three-wire serial bus that is CMOS compatible
and easily interfaced to all popular microprocessor and microcontroller devices. The 11-bit command word
comprises eight bits of data, two DAC-select bits, and a range bit, the latter allowing selection between the times
1 or times 2 output range. The DAC registers are double buffered, allowing a complete set of new values to be
written to the device, then all DAC outputs are updated simultaneously through control of LDAC. The digital
inputs feature Schmitt triggers for high noise immunity.
The 14-terminal small-outline (D) package allows digital control of analog functions in space-critical
applications. The TLC5620C is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The TLC5620I is characterized
for operation from –40°C to 85°C. The TLC5620C and TLC5620I do not require external trimming.

detailed description
The TLC5620 is implemented using four resistor-string DACs. The core of each DAC is a single resistor with
256 taps, corresponding to the 256 possible codes listed in T able 1. One end of each resistor string is connected
to the GND terminal and the other end is fed from the output of the reference input buffer. Monotonicity is
maintained by use of the resistor strings. Linearity depends upon the matching of the resistor elements and upon
the performance of the output buffer . Since the inputs are buffered, the DACs always present a high-impedance
load to the reference source.
Each DAC output is buffered by a configurable-gain output amplifier that can be programmed to times 1 or times
2 gain.
On power up, the DACs are reset to CODE 0.
Each output voltage is given by:
VO(DACA|B|C|D)+REF
where CODE is in the range 0 to 255 and the range (RNG) bit is 0 or 1 within the serial control word.
With LOAD high, data is clocked into the DATA terminal on each falling edge of CLK. Once all data bits have
been clocked in, LOAD is pulsed low to transfer the data from the serial input register to the selected DAC as
shown in Figure 1. When LDAC is low, the selected DAC output voltage is updated when LOAD goes low . When
LDAC is high during serial programming, the new value is stored within the device and can be transferred to
the DAC output at a later time by pulsing LDAC low as shown in Figure 2. Data is entered most significant bit
(MSB) first. Data transfers using two 8-clock cycle periods are shown in Figures 3 and 4.

Table 2 lists the A1 and A0 bits and the selection of the updated DACs. The RNG bit controls the DAC output
range. When RNG = low, the output range is between the applied reference voltage and GND, and when
RNG = high, the range is between twice the applied reference voltage and GND.

linearity, offset, and gain error using single-end supplies
When an amplifier is operated from a single supply , the voltage offset can still be either positive or negative. With
a positive offset voltage, the output voltage changes on the first code change. With a negative offset the output
voltage may not change with the first code depending on the magnitude of the offset voltage.
The output amplifier attempts to drive the output to a negative voltage. However, because the most negative
supply rail is ground, the output cannot drive below ground and clamps the output at 0 V.
The output voltage then remains at zero until the input code value produces a sufficient positive output voltage
to overcome the negative offset voltage, resulting in the transfer function shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5. Effect of Negative Offset (Single Supply)
This offset error , not the linearity error, produces this breakpoint. The transfer function would have followed the
dotted line if the output buffer could drive below ground.
For a DAC, linearity is measured between zero-input code (all inputs 0) and full-scale code (all inputs 1) after
offset and full scale are adjusted out or accounted for in some way . However , single-supply operation does not
allow for adjustment when the offset is negative due to the breakpoint in the transfer function. So the linearity
is measured between full-scale code and the lowest code that produces a positive output voltage. The code is
calculated from the maximum specification for the negative offset voltage.
