which specifies operation over the –55°C to +125°C tempera-
ture range.
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONThe DAC8420 is a quad, 12-bit voltage-output DAC with serial
digital interface, in a 16-pin package. Utilizing BiCMOS tech-
nology, this monolithic device features unusually high circuit
density and low power consumption. The simple, easy-to-use
serial digital input and fully buffered analog voltage outputs
require no external components to achieve specified performance.
The three-wire serial digital input is easily interfaced to micro-
processors running at 10 MHz rates, with minimal additional
circuitry. Each DAC is addressed individually by a 16-bit serial
word consisting of a 12-bit data word and an address header.
The user-programmable reset control CLR forces all four DAC
outputs to either zero or midscale, asynchronously overriding
the current DAC register values. The output voltage range, de-
termined by the inputs VREFHI and VREFLO, is set by the
user for positive or negative unipolar or bipolar signal swings
within the supplies allowing considerable design flexibility.

PIN CONFIGURATIONS
PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONPower SuppliesVDD:Positive Supply, +5 V to +15 V.
VSS:Negative Supply, 0 V to –15 V.
GND:Digital Ground.
ClockCLK: System Serial Data Clock Input, TTL/CMOS levels. Data presented to the input SDI is shifted into
the internal serial-parallel input register on the rising edge of clock. This input is logically ORed with CS.
Control Inputs(All are CMOS/TTL compatible.)
CLR: Asynchronous Clear, active low. Sets internal data registers A-D to zero or midscale, depending on cur-
rent state of CLSEL. The data in the serial input shift register is unaffected by this control.
CLSEL: Determines action of CLR. If HIGH, a Clear command will set the internal DAC registers A-D to
midscale (800H). If LOW, the registers are set to zero (000H).
CS: Device Chip Select, active low. This input is logically ORed with the clock and disables the serial data
register input when HIGH. When LOW, data input clocking is enabled, see the Control Function Table.
LD: Asynchronous DAC Register Load Control, active low. The data currently contained in the serial input
shift register is shifted out to the DAC data registers on the falling edge of LD, independent of CS. Input data
must remain stable while LD is LOW.
Data Input(All are CMOS/TTL compatible.)
SDI: Serial Data Input. Data presented to this pin is loaded into the internal serial-parallel shift register, which
shifts data in beginning with DAC address Bit A1. This input is ignored when CS is HIGH.
The format of the 16-bit serial word is:
(FIRST) (LAST)
—Address Word— (MSB) —DAC Data Word— (LSB)
NC = Don’t Care.
Reference InputsVREFHI:Upper DAC ladder reference voltage input. Allowable range is (VDD – 2.5 V) to (VVREFLO +2.5 V).
VREFLO:Lower DAC ladder reference voltage input, equal to zero scale output. Allowable range is VSS to
(VVREFHI – 2.5 V).

OPERATION
IntroductionThe DAC8420 is a quad, voltage-output 12-bit DAC with serial
digital input, capable of operating from a single +5 V supply.
The straightforward serial interface can be connected directly to
most popular microprocessors and microcontrollers, and can ac-
cept data at a 10 MHz clock rate when operating from ±15 V
supplies. A unique voltage reference structure assures maximum
utilization of DAC output resolution by allowing the user to set
the zero- and full-scale output levels within the supply rails. The
analog voltage outputs are fully buffered, and are capable of
driving a 2 kΩ load. Output glitch impulse during major code
transitions is a very low 64 nV-s (typ).
Digital Interface OperationThe serial input of the DAC-8420, consisting of CS, SDI, and
LD, is easily interfaced to a wide variety of microprocessor serial
ports. As shown in Table I and the Timing Diagram, while CS
is LOW the data presented to the input SDI is shifted into the
internal serial/parallel shift register on the rising edge of the
clock, with the address MSB first, data LSB last. The data for-
mat, shown above, is two bits of DAC address and two “don’t
care” fill bits, followed by the 12-bit DAC data word. Once all
16 bits of the serial data word have been input, the load control
LD is strobed and the word is parallel-shifted out onto the inter-
nal data bus. The two address bits are decoded and used to
route the 12-bit data word to the appropriate DAC data regis-
ter, see the Applications Information.
Correct Operation of CS and CLKAs mentioned in Table I, the control pins CLK and CS require
some attention during a data load cycle. Since these two inputs
are fed to the same logical “OR” gate, their operation is in fact
identical. The user must take care to operate them accordingly
in order to avoid clocking in false data bits. As shown in the
Timing Diagram, CLK must be either halted HIGH, or CS
brought HIGH during the last HIGH portion of the CLK fol-
lowing the rising edge which latched in the last data bit. Other-
wise, an additional rising edge is generated by CS rising while
CLK is LOW, causing CS to act as the clock and allowing a
false data bit into the serial input register. The same issue must
be considered in the beginning of the data load sequence also.
(000H) or midscale (800H), depending on the state of CLSEL as
shown in the Digital Function Table. The CLEAR function is
asynchronous and is totally independent of CS. When CLR
returns HIGH, the DAC outputs remain latched at the reset
value until LD is strobed, reloading the individual DAC data word
registers with either the data held in the serial input register prior
to the reset, or new data loaded through the serial interface.
Table II.DAC Address Word Decode Table
Programming the Analog OutputsThe unique differential reference structure of the DAC8420
allows the user to tailor the output voltage range precisely to the
needs of the application. Instead of spending DAC resolution
on an unused region near the positive or negative rail, the
DAC8420 allows the user to determine both the upper and
lower limits of the analog output voltage range. Thus, as shown
in Table III and Figure 1, the outputs of DACs A through D
range between VREFHI and VREFLO, within the limits speci-
fied in the Electrical Characteristics tables. Note also that
VREFHI must be greater than VREFLO.
