GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5780
1
is a true 18-bit, unbuffered voltage output DAC
that operates from a bipolar supply of up to 33 V. The AD5780
accepts a positive reference input range of 5 V to V
DD
− 2.5 V
and a negative reference input range of V
SS
+ 2.5 V to 0 V. Both
reference inputs are buffered on chip and external buffers are
not required. The AD5780 offers a relative accuracy specifica-
tion of ±1 LSB maximum range, and operation is guaranteed
monotonic with a ±1 LSB DNL maximum range specification.
The part uses a versatile 3-wire serial interface that operates at
clock rates of up to 35 MHz and is compatible with standard
SPI, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and DSP interface standards. The
part incorporates a power-on reset circuit that ensures that the
DAC output powers up to 0 V in a known output impedance
state and remains in this state until a valid write to the device
takes place. The part provides an output clamp feature that
places the output in a defined load state.
