Pin No. Mnemonic Description
1 I
OUT
1A
DAC A Current Output.
2 I
OUT
2A
DAC A Analog Ground. This pin should typically be tied to the analog ground of the system, but it can be
biased to achieve single-supply operation.
3
R
FB
A
DAC Feedback Resistor Pin. This pin establishes voltage output for the DAC by connecting to an external
amplifier output.
4 V
REF
A DAC A Reference Voltage Input Pin.
5 GND Ground Pin.
6
LDAC
Load DAC Input. This pin allows asynchronous or synchronous updates to the DAC output. The DAC is
asynchronously updated when this signal goes low. Alternatively, if this line is held permanently low, an
automatic or synchronous update mode is selected, whereby the DAC is updated on the 16th clock falling
edge when the device is in standalone mode, or on the rising edge of
SYNC
when in daisy-chain mode.
7 SCLK Serial Clock Input. By default, data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock
input. Alternatively, by means of the serial control bits, the device can be configured such that data is clocked
into the shift register on the rising edge of SCLK.
8 SDIN Serial Data Input. Data is clocked into the 16-bit input register on the active edge of the serial clock input. By
default, data is clocked at power-on into the shift register on the falling edge of SCLK. The control bits allow
the user to change the active edge to a rising edge.
9 SDO Serial Data Output. This pin allows a number of parts to be daisy-chained. By default, data is clocked into the
shift register on the falling edge and clocked out via SDO on the rising edge of SCLK. Data is always clocked
out on the alternate edge to loading data to the shift register. Writing the readback control word to the shift
register makes the DAC register contents available for readback on the SDO pin, and they are clocked out on the
next 16 opposite clock edges to the active clock edge.
10
SYNC
Active Low Control Input. This pin provides the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When
SYNC
goes low, it powers on the SCLK and DIN buffers, and the input shift register is enabled. Data is loaded into the
shift register on the active edge of the subsequent clocks. In standalone mode, the serial interface counts the
clocks, and data is latched into the shift register on the 16th active clock edge.
11
CLR
Act
ive Low Control Input. This pin clears the DAC output, input, and DAC registers. Configuration mode allows the
user to enable the hardware
CLR
pin as a clear-to-zero scale or midscale, as required.
12 V
DD
Positive Power Supply Input. These parts can be operated from a supply of 2.5 V to 5.5 V.
