Op Amp Selection
Because of the extremely high accuracy of the 16-bit
LTC2753-16, careful thought should be given to op amp
selection in order to achieve the exceptional performance
of which the part is capable. Fortunately, the sensitivity of
INL and DNL to op amp offset has been greatly reduced
compared to previous generations of multiplying DACs.
Tables 4 and 5 contain equations for evaluating the effects
of op amp parameters on the LTC2753’s accuracy when
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
programmed in a unipolar or bipolar output range. These
are the changes the op amp can cause to the INL, DNL,
unipolar offset, unipolar gain error, bipolar zero and bipolar
gain error. Tables 4 and 5 can also be used to determine
the effects of op amp parameters on the LTC2753-14
and the LTC2753-12. However, the results obtained from
Tables 4 and 5 are in 16-bit LSBs. Divide these results
by 4 (LTC2753-14) and 16 (LTC2753-12) to obtain the
correct LSB sizing.
Table 6 contains a partial list of LTC precision op amps
recommended for use with the LTC2753. The easy-to-use
design equations simplify the selection of op amps to meet
the system’s specifi ed error budget. Select the amplifi er
from Table 6 and insert the specifi ed op amp parameters
in Table 5. Add up all the errors for each category to de-
termine the effect the op amp has on the accuracy of the
part. Arithmetic summation gives an (unlikely) worst-case
effect. A root-sum-square (RMS) summation produces a
more realistic estimate.
