DESCRIPTION
The DAC5687 is a dual-channel 16-bit high-speed
digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with integrated 2×,
4×, and 8× interpolation filters, a complex numerically
controlled oscillator (NCO), onboard clock multiplier,
IQ compensation, and on-chip voltage reference. The
DAC5687 is pin-compatible to the DAC5686,
requiring only changes in register settings for most
applications, and offers additional features and
superior linearity, noise, crosstalk, and PLL phase
noise performance.
The DAC5687 has six signal processing blocks: two
interpolate-by-two digital filters, a fine frequency
mixer with 32-bit NCO, a quadrature modulation
compensation block, another interpolate-by-two digital
filter, and a coarse frequency mixer with fS/2 or fS/4.
The different modes of operation enable or bypass
the signal processing blocks.
The coarse and fine mixers can be combined to span
a wider range of frequencies with fine resolution. The
DAC5687 allows both complex or real output.
Combining the frequency upconversion and complex
output produces a Hilbert transform pair that is output
from the two DACs. An external RF quadrature
modulator then performs the final single-sideband
upconversion.
The IQ compensation feature allows optimization of
phase, gain, and offset to maximize sideband
rejection and minimize LO feedthrough for an analog
quadrature modulator.
The DAC5687 includes several input options:
single-port interleaved data, even and odd
multiplexing at half-rate, and an input FIFO with either
external or internal clock to ease the input timing
ambiguity when the DAC5687 is clocked at the DAC
output sample rate.

DESCRIPTION
I
Asynchronous hardware power-down input. Active-High. Internal pulldown.
TXENABLE
33
I
TXENABLE has two purposes. In all modes, TXENABLE must be high for the DATA to the DAC to
be enabled. When TXENABLE is low, the digital logic section is forced to all 0, and any input data
presented to DA[15:0] and DB[15:0] is ignored. In interleaved data mode, when the qflag register
bit is cleared, TXENABLE is used to synchronizes the data to channels A and B. The first data
after the rising edge of TXENABLE is treated as A data, while the next data is treated as B data,
and so on.

Measured differential across IOUTA1 and IOUTA2 or IOUTB1 and IOUTB2 with 25 Ω each to AVDD.
Nominal full-scale current, IOUTFS , equals 32× the IBIAS current.
The upper limit of the output compliance is determined by the CMOS process. Exceeding this limit may result in transistor breakdown,
resulting in reduced reliability of the DAC5687 device. The lower limit of the output compliance is determined by the load resistors and
full-scale output current. Exceeding the limits adversely affects distortion performance and integral nonlinearity.
Use an external buffer amplifier with high impedance input to drive any external load.

Test Methodology
Typical ac specifications in external clock mode were characterized with the DAC5687EVM using the test
configuration shown in Figure 26. The DAC sample-rate clock fDAC is generated by an HP8665B signal
generator. An Agilent 8133A pulse generator is used to divide fDAC for the data-rate clock fDATA for the Agilent
16702A pattern-generator clock and provide adjustable skew to the DAC input clock. The 8133A fDAC output is
set to 1 VPP, equivalent to 2-VPP differential at CLK2/CLK2C pins. Alternatively, the DAC5687 PLLLOCK output
can be used for the pattern generator clock.
The DAC5687 output is characterized with a Rohde & Schwarz FSQ8 spectrum analyzer. For WCDMA signal
characterization, it is important to use a spectrum analyzer with high IP3 and noise subtraction capability so that
the spectrum analyzer does not limit the ACPR measurement. For all specifications, both DACA and DACB are
measured and the lowest value used as the specification.

Figure 27. DAC5687 Test Configuration for PLL Clock Mode
WCDMA test-model-1 test vectors for the DAC5687 characterization were generated in accordance with the
3GPP Technical Specification. Chip-rate data was generated using the test-model-1 block in the Agilent ADS.
For multicarrier signals, different random seeds and PN offsets were used for each carrier. A Matlab™ script
performed pulse shaping, interpolation to the DAC input data rate, frequency offsets, rounding, and scaling. Each
test vector is 10 ms long, representing one frame. Special care is taken to assure that the end of the file wraps
smoothly to the beginning of the file.
The cumulative complementary distribution function (CCDF) for the 1-, 2-, and 4-carrier test vectors is shown in
Figure 28. The test vectors are scaled such that the absolute maximum data point is 0.95 (–0.45 dB) of full scale.
No peak reduction is used.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Modes of Operation
The DAC5687 has six digital signal processing blocks: FIR1 and FIR2 (interpolate-by-two digital filters), FMIX
(fine frequency mixer), QMC (quadrature modulation phase correction), FIR3 (interpolate-by-two digital filter) and
CMIX (coarse frequency mixer). The modes of operation, listed in Table 1, enable or bypass the blocks to
produce different results. The modes are selected by registers CONFIG1, CONFIG2, and CONFIG3 (0x02, 0x03,
and 0x04). Block diagrams for each mode (X2, X4, X4L, and X8) are shown in Figure 29 through Figure 32.

The QMC phase correction is eliminated by the CMIX, so the QMC phase should be set to zero. The
QMC gain settings can still be used to adjust the signal path gain as needed.
fDAC limited to maximum clock rate for the NCO and QMC (see Electrical Characteristics (AC
Specifications)).

Serial Interface
The serial port of the DAC5687 is a flexible serial interface which communicates with industry standard
microprocessors and microcontrollers. The interface provides read/write access to all registers used to define the
operating modes of the DAC5687. It is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats and can be configured
as a three- or four-pin interface by sif_4pin in register CONFIG3. In both configurations, SCLK is the serial
interface input clock and SDENB is serial interface enable. For three-pin configuration, SDIO is a bidirectional pin
for both data in and data out. For four-pin configuration, SDIO is data in only and SDO is data out only.
Each read/write operation is framed by signal SDENB (serial data enable bar) asserted low for 2 to 5 bytes,
depending on the data length to be transferred (1–4 bytes). The first frame byte is the instruction cycle, which
identifies the following data transfer cycle as read or write, how many bytes to transfer, and what address to
transfer the data. Table 6 indicates the function of each bit in the instruction cycle and is followed by a detailed
description of each bit. Frame bytes 2 to 5 comprise the data transfer cycle.

Figure 33 shows the serial interface timing diagram for a DAC5687 write operation. SCLK is the serial interface
clock input to the DAC5687. Serial data enable SDENB is an active-low input to the DAC5687. SDIO is serial
data in. Input data to the DAC5687 is clocked on the rising edges of SCLK.

FIR Filters
Figure 35 shows the magnitude spectrum response for the identical 51-tap FIR1 and FIR3 filters. The transition
band is from 0.4 to 0.6 × fIN (the input data rate for the FIR filter) with < 0.002-dB pass-band ripple and > 80-dB
stop-band attenuation. Figure 36 shows the region from 0.35 to 0.45 × fIN. Up to 0.44 × fIN, there is less than
0.5 dB of attenuation.
Figure 37 shows the magnitude spectrum response for the 19-tap FIR2 filter. The transition band is from 0.25 to
0.75 × fIN (the input data rate for the FIR filter) with < 0.002-dB pass-band ripple and > 80-dB stop-band
attenuation.
The DAC5687 also has an inverse sinc filter (FIR4) that runs at the DAC update rate (fDAC) that can be used to
flatten the frequency response of the sample-and-hold output. The DAC sample-and-hold output sets the output
current and holds it constant for one DAC clock cycle until the next sample, resulting in the well-known sin(x)/x or
sinc(x) frequency response shown in Figure 38 (red dash-dotted line). The inverse sinc filter response (Figure 38,
blue solid line) has the opposite frequency response between 0 to 0.4 × fDAC, resulting in the combined response
(Figure 38, green dotted line). Between 0 to 0.4 × fDAC, the inverse sinc filter compensates the sample-and-hold
rolloff with less than 0.03-dB error.
The inverse sinc filter has a gain > 1 at all frequencies. Therefore, the signal input to FIR4 must be reduced from
full scale to prevent saturation in the filter. The amount of backoff required depends on the signal frequency, and
is set such that at the signal frequencies, the combination of the input signal and filter response is less than 1 (0
dB). For example, if the signal input to FIR4 is at 0.25 × fDAC, the response of FIR4 is 0.9 dB, and the signal must
be backed off from full scale by 0.9 dB. The gain function in the QMC block can be used to set reduce amplitude
of the input signal. The advantage of FIR4 having a positive gain at all frequencies is that the user is then able to
optimize backoff of the signal based on the signal frequency.
The filter taps for all digital filters are listed in Table 8.
Note that the loss of signal amplitude may result in lower SNR due to decrease in signal amplitude.

SLWS164E – FEBRUARY 2005 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2006
Dual-Channel Real Upconversion
The DAC5687 can be used in a dual-channel mode with real upconversion by mixing with a 1, –1, … sequence
in the signal chain to invert the spectrum. This mixing mode maintains isolation of the A and B channels. There
are two points of mixing: in X4L mode, the FIR1 output is inverted (high-pass mode) by setting registers hpla and
hplb to 1, and the FIR3 output is inverted by setting CMIX to fDAC/2. In X8 mode, the output of FIR1 is inverted
by setting hpla and hplb to 1, and the FIR3 output is inverted by setting CMIX to fDAC/2. In X2 and X4 modes,
the output of FIR3 is inverted by setting CMIX to fDAC/2.
The wide bandwidth of FIR3 (40% passband) in X4L mode provides options for setting four different frequency
ranges, listed in Table 9. For example, with fDATA = 125 MSPS (fDAC = 500 MSPS), setting FIR1/FIR3 to High
Pass/High Pass, respectively, upconverts a signal between 25 MHz and 50 MHz to a signal between 150 MHz
and 175 MHz. With the High Pass/Low Pass and Low Pass/High Pass settings, the upconvertered signal is
spectrally inverted.

Limitations on Signal BW and Final Output Frequency in X4L and X8 Modes
For very wide-bandwidth signals, the FIR3 pass band (0–0.4 × fDAC/2) can limit the range of the final output
frequency. For example, in X4L FMIX CMIX mode (4× interpolation with FMIX after FIR1), at the maximum input
data rate of fIN = 125 MSPS, the input signal can be ±50 MHz before running into the transition band of FIR1.
After 2× interpolation, FIR3 limits the signal to ±100 MHz (0.4 × 250 MHz). Therefore, at the maximum signal
bandwidth, FMIX can mix up to 50 MHz and still fall within the pass band of FIR3. This results in gaps in the final
output frequency between FMIX alone (0 MHz to 50 MHz) and FMIX + CMIX with fDAC/4 (75 MHz to 175 MHz)
and FMIX + CMIX with fDAC/2 (200 MHz to 250 MHz).
In practice, it may be possible to extend the signal into the FIR3 transition band. Referring to Figure 36 in the
preceding FIR Filters section, if 0.5 dB of attenuation at the edge of the signal can be tolerated, then the signal
can be extended up to 0.44 × fIN. This would extend the range of FMIX in the example to 60 MHz.
Fine Mixer (FMIX)
The fine mixer block FMIX uses a numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) with a 32-bit frequency register
freq(31:0) and a 16-bit phase register phase(15:0) to provide sin and cos for mixing. The NCO tuning frequency
is programmed in registers 0x09 through 0x0C. Phase offset is programmed in registers 0x0D and 0x0E. A block
diagram of the NCO is shown in Figure 39.

Synchronization of the NCO occurs by resetting the NCO accumulator to zero with assertion of PHSTR. See the
following NCO Synchronization section. Frequency word freq in the frequency register is added to the
accumulator every clock cycle. The output frequency of the NCO is

where fNCO_CLK is the clock frequency of the NCO circuit. In X4 mode, the NCO clock frequency is the same as
the DAC sample rate, fDAC. The maximum clock frequency the NCO can operate at is 320 MHz – in X4 FMIX
mode, where FMIX operates at the DAC update rate, the DAC updated rate is limited to 320 MSPS. In X2, X4L
and X8 modes, the NCO circuit is followed by a further 2× interpolation and so fNCO_CLK = fDAC/2 and operates at
fDAC = 500 MHz.
Treating channels A and B as a complex vector I + I × Q where I(t) = A(t) and Q(t) = B(t), the output of FMIX
IOUT(t) and QOUT(t) is
IOUT(t) = (IIN(t)cos(2πfNCOt + δ) – QIN(t)sin(2πfNCOt + δ)) × 2(NCO_GAIN – 1)
QOUT(t) = (IIN(t)sin(2πfNCOt + δ) + QIN(t)cos(2πfNCOt + δ)) × 2(NCO_GAIN – 1)
where t is the time since the last resetting of the NCO accumulator, δ is the initial accumulator value, and
NCO_GAIN, bit 6 in register CONFIG2, is either 0 or 1. δ is given by
δ = 2π × phase(15:0)/216.
The maximum output amplitude of FMIX occurs if IIN(t) and QIN(t) are simultaneously full-scale amplitude and the
sine and cosine arguments 2πfNCOt + δ = (2N – 1) × π/4 (N = 1, 2, ...). With NCO_GAIN = 0, the gain through
FMIX is sqrt(2)/2 or –3 dB. This loss in signal power is in most cases undesirable, and it is recommended that
the gain function of the QMC block be used to increase the signal by 3 dB to 0 dBFS by setting qmca_gain and
qmcb_gain each to 1446 (decimal).
With NCO_GAIN = 1, the gain through FMIX is sqrt(2) or 3 dB, which can cause clipping of the signal if IIN(t) and
QIN(t) are simultaneously near full-scale amplitude, and should therefore be used with caution.
Coarse Mixer (CMIX)
The coarse mixer block provides mixing capability at the DAC output rate with fixed frequencies of fS/2 or fS/4.
The coarse mixer output phase sequence is selected by the cm_mode(3:0) bits in register CONFIG2 and is
shown in Table 10.

The output of CMIX is complex. For a real output, either DACA or DACB can be used and the other DAC slept,
the difference being the phase sequence.
Quadrature Modulator Correction (QMC)
The quadrature modulator correction (QMC) block provides a means for changing the phase balance of the
complex signal to compensate for I and Q imbalance present in an analog quadrature modulator. The QMC block
is limited in operation to a clock rate of 320 MSPS.
The block diagram for the QMC block is shown in Figure 40. The QMC block contains three programmable
parameters. Registers qmc_gain_a and qmc_gain_b control the I and Q path gains and are 11-bit values with a
range of 0 to approximately 2. Note that the I and Q gain can also be controlled by setting the DAC full-scale
output current (see following). Register qmc_phase controls the phase imbalance between I and Q and is a
10-bit value with a range of –1/2 to approximately 1/2.
LO feedthrough can be minimized by adjusting the DAC offset feature described as follows.
An example of sideband optimization using the QMC block and gain adjustment is shown in Figure 41. The QMC
phase adjustment in combination with the DAC gain adjustment can reduce the unwanted sideband signal from
~40 dBc to > 65 dBc.
Note that mixing in the CMIX block after the QMC correction destroys the I and Q phase compensation
information from the QMC block.

DAC Offset Control
Registers daca_offset and dacb_offset control the I and Q path offsets and are 13-bit values with a range of
–4096 to 4095. The DAC offset value adds a digital offset to the digital data before digital-to-analog conversion.
The qmc_gain_a and qmc_gain_b registers can be used to back off the signal before the offset to prevent
saturation when the offset value is added to the digital signal. The offset values are in 2s-complement format.
It takes four DAC clock cycles to update the 14-bit DAC5687 offset registers. During the first clock cycle, the two
MSBs, daca_offset(13:12) and dacb_offset(13:12), are updated, followed by daca_offset(11:8) and
dacb_offset(11:8) on the second clock cycle, daca_offset(7:4) and dacb_offset(7:4) on the third clock cycle, and
daca_offset(3:0) and dacb_offset(3:0) on the fourth clock cycle.

During the four DAC clock cycles, the partially updated offset register values are summed to the DAC signal.
This can result in offset values during the first three DAC clock cycles that are significantly different from the
starting and ending offset values. For example, Table 11 shows the transition from offset value 1023 to 1025.
The bit changes in each clock cycle are in bold. As can be seen, the transition between 1023 and 1025 results in
offset values of 1023, 1279, and 1039 during the transition.

Clock Modes
In the DAC5687, the internal clocks (1×, 2×, 4×, and 8× as needed) for the logic, FIR interpolation filters, and
DAC are derived from a clock at either the input data rate using an internal PLL (PLL clock mode) or DAC output
sample rate (external clock mode). Power for the internal PLL blocks (PLLVDD and PLLGND) are separate from
the other clock generation blocks power (CLKVDD and CLKGND), thus minimizing phase noise within the PLL.
The DAC5687 has three clock modes for generating the internal clocks (1×, 2×, 4×, and 8× as needed) for the
logic, FIR interpolation filters, and DACs. The clock mode is set using the PLLVDD pin and dual_clk in register
CONFIG1.

1. PLLVDD = 0 V and dual_clk = 0: EXTERNAL CLOCK MODE
In EXTERNAL CLOCK MODE, the user provides a clock signal at the DAC output sample rate through
CLK2/CLK2C. CLK1/CLK1C and the internal PLL are not used. The LPF and CLK1/CLK1C pins can be left
unconnected. The input data-rate clock and interpolation rate are selected by the bits interp(1:0) in register
CONFIG0 and is output through the PLLLOCK pin. The PLLLOCK clock can be used to drive the input data
source (such as digital upconverter) that sends the data to the DAC. Note that the PLLLOCK delay relative to the
input CLK2 rising edge (td(PLLLOCK) in Figure 43 and Figure 44) increases with increasing loads. The PLLLOCK
output driver is not capable of reaching full speed at lower IOVDD voltages. For example, at IOVDD = 1.8 V,
PLLLOCK output frequencies > 100 MHz are not recommended. The input data is latched on either the rising
(inv_plllock = 0) or falling edge (inv_plllock = 1) of PLLLOCK, which is sensed internally at the output pin.

SLWS164E – FEBRUARY 2005 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2006
A type-four phase-frequency detector (PFD) in the internal PLL compares this reference clock to a feedback
clock and drives the PLL to maintain synchronization between the two clocks. The feedback clock is generated
by dividing the VCO output by 1×, 2×, 4×, or 8× as selected by the prescaler div(1:0). The output of the prescaler
is the DAC sample rate clock and is divided down to generate clocks at ÷2, ÷4, and ÷8. The feedback clock is
selected by the registers sel(1:0), which is fed back to the PFD for synchronization to the input clock. The
feedback clock is also used for the data input rate, so the ratio of DAC output clock to feedback clock sets the
interpolation rate of the DAC5687. The PLLLOCK pin is an output indicating when the PLL has achieved lock. An
external RC low-pass PLL filter is provided by the user at pin LPF. See the Low-Pass Filter section for
filter-setting calculations. This is the only mode where the LPF filter applies.

3. PLLVDD = 0 V and dual_clk = 1: DUAL CLOCK MODE
In DUAL CLOCK MODE, the DAC is driven at the DAC sample rate through CLK2/CLK2C and the input data
rate through CLK1/CLK1C. There are two options in dual clock mode: with FIFO (inv_plllock set) and without
FIFO (inv_plllock clear). If the FIFO is not used, the CLK1/CLK1C input is used to set the phase of the internal
clock divider. In this case, the edges of CLK1 and CLK2 must be aligned to within ±talign (Figure 47), defined as
t align + 1 * 0.5 ns
2f CLK2
where fCLK2 is the clock frequency at CLK2. For example, talign = 0.5 ns at fCLK2 = 500 MHz and 1.5 ns at fCLK2 =
250 MHz.
If the FIFO is enabled (inv_plllock set) in dual clock mode, then CLK1 is only used as an input latch (Figure 48),
is independent from the internal divided clock generated from CLK2/CLK2C, and there is no alignment
specification. However, the FIFO must be synchronized by one of the methods listed in the SYNC_CNTL
register, and the latency of the DAC can be up to one clock cycle different, depending on the phase relationship
between CLK1 and the internally divided clock.

Interleave Bus Mode
In interleave bus mode, one parallel data stream with interleaved data (I and Q) is input to the DAC5687 on data
bus DA. Interleave bus mode is selected by setting INTERL to 1 in the config_msb register. Figure 49 shows
the DAC5687 data path in interleave bus mode. The interleave bus mode timing diagram is shown in Figure 50.

A and B can be synchronized using either the QFLAG pin or the TXENABLE pin. When qflag in register
config_usb is 0, transitions on TXENABLE identify the interleaved data sequence. The first data after the rising
edge of TXENABLE is latched with the rising edge of CLK as channel-A data. Data is then alternately distributed
to B and A channels with successive rising edges of CLK. When qflag is 1, the QFLAG pin is used as an output

SLWS164E – FEBRUARY 2005 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2006
When using interleaved input mode with the PLL enabled, input clock CLK1 is at 2× the frequency of the input to
FIR1. If the dividers for multiple DAC5687s are not synchronized, there can be a one-CLK1-period output time
difference between devices that have synchronized input data. However, the divider that generates the clock for
the FIR1 input is not connected to the DAC5687 synchronization circuitry. In general, dual-clock mode is
recommended in applications where multiple DAC5687s must be synchronized in interleaved input mode. If PLL
mode is required, the following workaround using the asynchronous RESET pin synchronizes the clock dividers.
With the CLK1 input off and the chip powered, set RESET low for >50 ns and then high for all devices,
simultaneously restarting CLK1. Note that the devices must be reprogrammed after the reset sequence. If CLK1
is kept active during the reset sequence, then multiple devices are typically reset to the same clock phase, but
because the RESET pin is asynchronous, the clock divider on two devices can come out of reset at slightly
different times.
Input FIFO
In external clock mode, where the DAC5687 is clocked at the DAC update rate, the DAC5687 has an optional
input FIFO that allows latching of DA[15:0], DB[15:0] and PHSTR based on a user-provided CLK1/CLK1C input
or the input data rate clock provided to the PLLLOCK pin. The FIFO can be bypassed by setting register
fifo_bypass in CONFIG0 to 1.
The input interface FIFO incorporates a four-sample register file, an input pointer, and an output pointer.
Initialization of the FIFO pointers can be programmed to one of seven different sources.

Initialization of the FIFO block involves selecting and asserting a synchronization source. Initialization causes the
input and output pointers to be forced to an offset of 2; the input pointer is forced to the in_sel_a state, while the
output pointer is forced to the sel_q_c state. This initialization of the input and output pointers can cause
discontinuities in a data stream and should therefore be handled at startup.

Once initialized, the FIFO input pointer advances using clk_in and the output pointer advances using clk_out,
providing an elastic buffering effect. The phase relationship between clk_in and clk_out can wander or drift until
the output pointer overruns the input pointer or vice versa.
Even/Odd Input Mode
The DAC5687 has a double data rate input mode that allows both input ports to be used to multiplex data onto
one DAC channel (A). In the even/odd mode, the FIR3 filter can be used to interpolate the data by 2×. The
even/odd input mode is enabled by setting half_rate in CONFIG3. The maximum input rate for each port is 250
MSPS, for a combined rate of 500 MSPS.
Synchronization
The DAC5687 has several digital circuits that can be synchronized to a known state. The circuits that can be
synchronized are the fine mixer (NCO), coarse mixer (fixed fS/2 or fS/4 mixer), the FIFO input and output
pointers, and the internal clock divider.

Description
Signal at the PLLLOCK output pin is used to clock the
PHSTR signal into the chip. The PLLLOCK output
clock is generated by dividing the CLK2/CLK2C input
signal by the programmed interpolation and interface
settings.
Signal at the PLLLOCK output pin is used to clock the
PHSTR signal into the chip. The PLLLOCK output
clock is generated by dividing the CLK2/CLK2C input
signal by the programmed interpolation and interface
settings. Enabling the FIFO allows the chip to function
with large loads on the PLLLOCK output pin at high
input rates. The FIFO must be initialized first in this
mode.
NCO Synchronization
The phase accumulator in the NCO block (see the Fine Mixer (FMIX) section and Figure 39 for a description of
the NCO) can be synchronously reset when PHSTR is asserted. The PHSTR signal passes through the input
FIFO block, using the input clock associated with the clocking mode. If the FIFO is enabled, there can be some
uncertainty in the exact instant the PHSTR synchronization signal arrives at the NCO accumulator due to the
elastic capabilities of the FIFO. For example, in dual-clock mode with the FIFO enabled, the internal clock
generator divides down the CLK2/CLK2C input signal to generate the FIFO output clock. The phase of this
generated clock is unknown externally, resulting in an uncertainty of the exact PHSTR instant of as much as a
few input clock cycles.

Figure 54. Logic Path for PHSTR Synchronization Signal to NCO
The serial interface includes a sync_nco bit in register SYNC_CNTL, which must be set for the PHSTR input
signal to initialize the phase accumulator.
The NCO uses a rising edge detector to perform the synchronous reset of the phase accumulator. Due to the
pipelined nature of the NCO, the latency from the phstr sync signal at the FIFO output to the instant the phase
accumulator is cleared is 13 fNCO clock cycles (fNCO = fDAC in X4 mode, fNCO = fDAC/2 in X2, X4L, and X8 modes).
In 2× interpolation mode with the inverse sinc filter disabled, overall latency from PHSTR input to DAC output is
~100 input clock cycles.

Coarse Mixer (CMIX) Synchronization
The coarse mixer implements the fDAC/2 and fDAC/4 (and –fDAC/4) fixed complex mixing operation using simple
complements of the data-path signals to create the proper sequences. The sequences are controlled using a
simple counter, and this counter can be synchronously reset using the PHSTR signal.
Similar to the NCO, the PHSTR signal used by the coarse mixer is from the FIFO output. This introduces the
same uncertainty effect due to the FIFO input-to-output pointer relationship. Bypassing the FIFO and using the
dual external clock mode without FIFO eliminates this uncertainty for systems using multiple DAC5687 devices
when this cannot be tolerated. Using the internal PLL, as with the NCO, allows the complete control and
synchronization of the coarse mixer.

Input Clock Synchronization of Multiple DAC5687s
For applications where multiple DAC5687 chips are used, clock synchronization is best achieved by using
dual-clock mode with the FIFO disabled or the PLL-clock mode. In the dual-clock mode with FIFO disabled, an
appropriate clock PLL such as the CDC7005 is required to provide the DAC and input rate clocks that meet the
skew requirement talign (see Figure 47). An example for synchronizing multiple DAC5687 devices in dual clock
mode with two CDC7005s is shown in Figure 58. When using the internal PLL-clock mode, synchronization of
multiple using PHSTR is completely deterministic due to the phase/frequency detector in the PLL feedback loop.
All chips using the same CLK1/CLK1C input clock have identical internal clocking phases.

Figure 58. Block Diagram for Clock Synchronization of Multiple DAC5687 Devices in Dual-Clock Mode
Reference Operation
The DAC5687 comprises a band-gap reference and control amplifier for biasing the full-scale output current. The
full-scale output current is set by applying an external resistor RBIAS to pin BIASJ. The bias current IBIAS through
resistor RBIAS is defined by the on-chip band-gap reference voltage and control amplifier. The full-scale output
current equals 16 times this bias current. The full-scale output current IOUTFS can thus be expressed as:
IOUTFS = 16 × IBIAS = 16 × VEXTIO / RBIAS
where VEXTIO is the voltage at terminal EXTIO. The band-gap reference voltage delivers an accurate voltage of
1.2 V. This reference is active when terminal EXTLO is connected to AGND. An external decoupling capacitor
CEXT of 0.1 µF should be connected externally to terminal EXTIO for compensation. The band-gap reference can
additionally be used for external reference operation. In that case, an external buffer with high-impedance input
should be applied in order to limit the band-gap load current to a maximum of 100 nA. The internal reference can
be disabled and overridden by an external reference by connecting EXTLO to AVDD. Capacitor CEXT may hence
be omitted. Terminal EXTIO thus serves as either input or output node.
The full-scale output current can be adjusted from 20 mA down to 2 mA by varying resistor RBIAS or changing the
externally applied reference voltage. The internal control amplifier has a wide input range, supporting the
full-scale output current range of 20 mA.
DAC Transfer Function
The CMOS DACs consist of a segmented array of NMOS current sinks, capable of sinking a full-scale output
current up to 20 mA. Differential current switches direct the current of each current source through either one of
the complementary output nodes IOUT1 or IOUT2. Complementary output currents enable differential operation,
thus canceling out common-mode noise sources (digital feedthrough, on-chip and PCB noise), dc offsets,
even-order distortion components, and increasing signal output power by a factor of two.

SLWS164E – FEBRUARY 2005 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2006
The full-scale output current is set using external resistor RBIAS in combination with an on-chip band-gap voltage
reference source (1.2 V) and control amplifier. Current IBIAS through resistor RBIAS is mirrored internally to provide
a full-scale output current equal to 16 times IBIAS. The full-scale current IOUTFS can be adjusted from 20 mA
down to 2 mA.
The relation between IOUT1 and IOUT2 can be expressed as:
IOUT1 = –IOUTFS – IOUT2
Current flowing into a node is denoted as – current, and current flowing out of a node as + current. Because the
output stage is a current sink, the current can only flow from AVDD into the IOUT1 and IOUT2 pins. If IOUT2 =
–5 mA and IOUTFS = 20 mA then:
IOUT1 = –20 – (–5) = –15 mA
The output current flow in each pin driving a resistive load can be expressed as:
IOUT1 = IOUTFS × CODE / 65,536
IOUT2 = IOUTFS × (65,535 – CODE) / 65,536
where CODE is the decimal representation of the DAC data input word.
For the case where IOUT1 and IOUT2 drive resistor loads RL directly, this translates into single-ended voltages
at IOUT1 and IOUT2:
VOUT1 = AVDD – | IOUT1 | × RL
VOUT2 = AVDD – | IOUT2 | × RL
Assuming that the data is full scale (65,535 in offset binary notation) and RL is 25 Ω, the differential voltage
between pins IOUT1 and IOUT2 can be expressed as:
VOUT1 = AVDD – | –20 mA | × 25 Ω = 2.8 V
VOUT2 = AVDD – | –0 mA | × 25 Ω = 3.3 V
VDIFF = VOUT1 – VOUT2 – 0.5 V
Note that care should be taken not to exceed the compliance voltages at node IOUT1 and IOUT2, which would
lead to increased signal distortion.
Analog Current Outputs
Figure 59 shows a simplified schematic of the current source array output with corresponding switches.
Differential switches direct the current of each individual NMOS current source to either the positive output node
IOUT1 or its complementary negative output node IOUT2. The output impedance is determined by the stack of
the current sources and differential switches, and is typically >300 kΩ in parallel with an output capacitance of
5 pF.
The external output resistors are referred to AVDD. The minimum output compliance at nodes IOUT1 and IOUT2
is limited to AVDD – 0.5 V. The maximum output compliance voltage at nodes IOUT1 and IOUT2 equals AVDD +
0.5 V. Beyond this value, transistor breakdown may occur, resulting in reduced reliability of the DAC5687 device.
Exceeding the minimum output compliance voltage adversely affects distortion performance and integral
nonlinearity. The optimum distortion performance for a single-ended or differential output is achieved when the
maximum full-scale signal at IOUT1 and IOUT2 is in the range of AVDD ±0.5 V.

Figure 59. Equivalent Analog Current Output
The DAC5687 can be easily configured to drive a doubly terminated 50-Ω cable using a properly selected RF
transformer. Figure 60 and Figure 61 show the 50-Ω doubly terminated transformer configuration with 1:1 and
4:1 impedance ratio, respectively. Note that the center tap of the primary input of the transformer must be
connected to AVDD to enable a dc current flow. Applying a 20-mA full-scale output current would lead to a
0.5-VPP output for a 1:1 transformer and a 1-VPP output for a 4:1 transformer. The low dc impedance between the
IOUT1 or IOUT2 and the transformer center tap sets the center of the ac signal at AVDD, so the 1-VPP output for
the 4:1 transformer results in an output between AVDD + 0.5 V and AVDD – 0.5 V.

Figure 62. Combined Output Termination Using a 1:1 Impedance Ratio Transformer Into 50-Ω Load
For the case where the digital codes for the two DACs are identical, the termination results in a full-scale swing
of 2 VPP into the 50-Ω load, or 10 dBm. This is 6 dB higher than the 4:1 output termination recommended for a
single DAC output.
There are two methods to produce identical DAC codes. In modes where there is mixing between digital
channels A and B, i.e., when channels A and B are isolated, the identical data can be sent to both input ports to
produce identical DAC codes. Channels A and B are isolated when FMIX is disabled, the QMC is disabled or
enabled with QMC phase register set to 0, and CMIX is disabled or set to fDAC/2. Note that frequency
upconversion is still possible using the high-pass filter setting and CMIX fDAC/2.
Alternatively, by applying the input data on one input port only and setting the other input port to midscale (zero),
the NCO can be used to duplicate the output of the active input channel in the other channel by setting the
frequency to zero, phase to 8192 and NCO_GAIN = 1 and QMC gain = 1446. Assuming I(t) is the wanted signal
and Q(t) = 0, this is demonstrated by the simplification of the NCO equations in the Fine Mixer (FMIX) section:
IOUT(t) = (IIN(t)cos(2π × 0 × t + π/4) – 0 × sin(2π × 0 × t + π/4) × 2(1 – 1) = IIN(t)cos(π/4) = IIN(t)/2½

QOUT(t) = (IIN(t)sin(2π × 0 × t + π/4) + 0 × cos(2π × 0 × t + π/4)) × 2(1 – 1) = IIN(t)sin(π/4) = IIN(t)/2½
Applying the QMC gain of 1446, equivalent to 2½, increases the signal back to unity gain through the FMIX and
the QMC blocks.
Note that with this termination, the DAC side of the transformer is not 50-Ω terminated and therefore may result
in reflections when used with a cable output.

Power-Up Sequence
In all conditions, bring up DVDD first. If PLLVDD is powered (PLL on), CLKVDD should be powered before or
simultaneously with PLLVDD. AVDD, CLKVDD, and IOVDD can be powered simultaneously or in any order.
Within AVDD, the multiple AVDD pins should be powered simultaneously.
There are no specific requirements on the ramp rate for the supplies.
Sleep Mode
The DAC5687 features a power-down mode that turns off the output current and reduces the supply current to
less than 5 mA over the supply range of 3 V to 3.6 V and temperature range. The power-down mode is activated
by applying a logic level 1 to the SLEEP pin (e.g., by connecting pin SLEEP to AVDD). An internal pulldown
circuit at node SLEEP ensures that the DAC5687 is enabled if the input is left disconnected. Power-up and
power-down activation times depend on the value of external capacitor at node EXTIO. For a nominal capacitor
value of 0.1 µF, power down takes less than 5 µs and approximately 3 ms to power back up.

The optimized DAC5687 PLL settings based on the VCO frequency MIN and MAX values (see the digital
specifications) as a function of fDAC are listed in Table 15. To minimize phase noise at a given fDAC, pll_freq,
pll_kv, and pll_div have been chosen so GVCO is minimized and within the MIN and MAX frequency for a given
setting.
For example, if fDAC = 245.76 MHz, pll_freq is set to 1, pll_kv is set to 0 and pll_div(1:0) is set to 01 (divide
by 2) to lock the VCO at 491.52 MHz.
The external loop filter components C1, C2, and R1 are set by the GVCO, N = fVCO/fDATA = fVCO ×
Interpolation/fDAC, the loop phase margin φd and the loop bandwidth ωd. Except for applications where abrupt
clock frequency changes require a fast PLL lock time, it is suggested that φd be set to at least 80 degrees for
stable locking and suppression of the phase-noise side lobes. Phase margins of 60 degrees or less can be
sensitive to board layout and decoupling details.
C1, C2, and R1 are then calculated by the following equations

DAC5687 Passive Interface to Analog Quadrature Modulators
The DAC5687 has a maximum 20-mA full-scale output and a compliance range of AVDD ±0.5 V. The TRF3701
or TRF3702 analog quadrature modulators (AQM) require a common mode of approximately 3.7 V and 1.5 V to
2-VPP differential swing. A resistive network as shown in Figure 68 can be used to translate the common-mode
voltage between the DAC5687 and TRF3701 or TRF3702. The voltage at the DAC output pins for a full-scale
sine wave is centered at approximately AVDD with a 1-VPP single-ended (2-VPP differential) swing. The voltage at
the TRF3701/2 input pins is centered at 3.7 V and swings 0.76-VPP single-ended (1.52-VPP differential), or 2.4 dB
of insertion loss.

Nonharmonic Clock-Related Spurious Signals
In interpolating DACs, imperfect isolation between the digital and DAC clock circuits generates spurious signals
at frequencies related to the DAC clock rate. The digital interpolation filters in these DACs run at subharmonic
frequencies of the output rate clock, where these frequencies are fDAC/2N, N = 1 – 3. For example, for X2 mode
there is only one interpolation filter running at fDAC/2; for X4 and X4L modes, on the other hand, there are two
interpolation filters running at fDAC/2 and fDAC/4. In X8 mode, there are three interpolation filters running at fDAC/2,
fDAC/4, and fDAC/8. These lower-speed clocks for the interpolation filter mix with the DAC clock circuit and create
spurious images of the wanted signal and second Nyquist-zone image at offsets of fDAC/2N.

SLWS164E – FEBRUARY 2005 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2006
To calculate the nonharmonic clock-related spurious signals for a particular condition, we first determine the
location of the spurious signals and then the amplitude.
Location of the Spurious Signals
The location of the spurious signals is determined by the DAC5687 output frequency (fSIG) and whether the
output is used as a dual-output complex signal to be fed to an analog quadrature modulator (AQM) or as a real
IF signal from a single DAC output.
Figure 70 shows the location of spurious signals for X2 mode as a function of fSIG/fDAC. For complex outputs, the
spurious frequencies cover a range of –0.5 × fDAC to 0.5 × fDAC, with the negative complex frequency indicating
that the spurious signal falls in the opposite sideband from the wanted signal at the output of the AQM. For the
real output, the phase information for the spurious signal is lost, and therefore what was a negative frequency for
the complex output is a positive frequency for a real output.
For the X2 mode, there is one spurious frequency with an absolute frequency less than 0.5 × fDAC. For a complex
output in X2 mode, the spurious signal always is offset fDAC/2 from the wanted signal at fSIG – fDAC/2. For a real
output, as fSIG approaches fDAC/4, the spurious signal frequency falls at fDAC/2 – fSIG, which also approaches
fDAC/4.

Figure 70. Frequency of Clock Mixing Spurious Images in X2 Mode
Figure 71 shows the location of spurious signals for X4 and X4L mode as a function of fSIG/fDAC. The addition of
the fDAC/4 clock frequency for the first interpolation filter creates three new spurious signals. For a complex
output, the nearest spurious signals are fDAC/4 offset from fSIG. For a real output, the signal due to fSIG – fDAC/4
and fSIG – fDAC × 3/4 falls in band as fSIG approaches fDAC/8 and fDAC × 3/8. This creates optimum real output
frequencies fSIG = fDAC × N/16 (N = 1, 3, 5, and 7), where the minimum spurious product offset from fSIG is fDAC/8.

Figure 73 and Figure 74 show the typical worst-case spurious signal amplitudes vs fDAC for a signal frequency
fSIG = 11 × fDAC/32 in each mode for PLL on (PLL clock mode) and PLL off (external and dual-clock modes).
Each spurious signal (fDAC/2, fDAC/4 and fDAC/8) has its own curve. The spurious signal amplitudes can then be
adjusted for the exact signal frequency fSIG by applying the amplitude adjustment factor shown in Figure 75. The
amplitude adjustment factor is the same for each spurious signal (fDAC/2, fDAC/4, and fDAC/8) and is normalized for
fSIG = 11 × fDAC/32.

Figure 75. Amplitude Adjustment Factor for fSIG
The steps for calculating the nonharmonic spurious signals are:
1. Find the spurious signal frequencies for the appropriate mode from Figure 70, Figure 71, or Figure 72.
2. Find the amplitude for each spurious frequency for the appropriate mode from Figure 73 or Figure 74.
3. Adjust the amplitude of the spurious signals for fSIG using the adjustment factor in Figure 75.
Consider Example 1 with the following conditions:
1. X4 Mode
2. PLL off
3. Complex output
4. fDAC = 500 MHz
5. fSIG = 160 MHz = 0.32 × fDAC
First, the location of the spurious signals is found for the X4 complex output in Figure 71(a). Three spurious
signals are present in the range –0.5 × fDAC to 0.5 × fDAC: two from fDAC/4 (35 MHz and –215 MHz) and one from
fDAC/2 (–90 MHz). Consulting Figure 73(c), the raw amplitudes for fDAC/2 and fDAC/4 are 60 and 58 dBc,
respectively. From Figure 75, the amplitude adjustment factor for fSIG = 0.32 × fDAC is estimated at ~1 dB, and so
the fDAC/2 and fDAC/4 are adjusted to 61 and 59 dBc.

Schematic and Layout Recommendations
The DAC5687 clock is sensitive to fast transitions of input data on pins DA0, DA1, and DA2 (55, 54, and 53) due
to coupling to DVDD pin 56. The noise-like spectral energy of the DA[2:0] couples into the DAC clock resulting in
increased jitter. This significantly improves by using a 10-Ω resistor between DVDD and pin 56 in addition to
10-pF capacitor to DGND, as implemented on the DAC5687EVM (see the DAC5687 EVM user's guide,
SLWU017). Pin 56 draws only approximately 2 mA of current and the 0.02-V voltage drop across the resistor is
acceptable for DVDD voltages within the MINIMUM and MAXIMUM specifications. It is also recommended that
the transition rate of the input lines be slowed by inserting series resistors near the data source. The optimized
value of the series resistor depends on the capacitance of the trace between the series resistor and DAC5687
input pin. For a 2–3-inch trace, a 22-Ω to 47-Ω resistor is recommended.
The effect of DAC clock jitter on the DAC output signal is worse for signals at higher signal frequencies. For low
IF (< 75 MHz) or baseband signals, there is little degradation of the output signal. However, for high IF (> 75
MHz) the DAC clock jitter may result in an elevated noise floor, which often appears as broad humps in the DAC
output spectrum. It is recommended for signals above 75 MHz that the inputs to DA0 and DA1, which are the two
LSBs if input DA[15:0] is not reversed, not be connected to input data to prevent coupling to the DAC rate clock.
The decrease in resolution to 14 bits and increase in quantization noise does not significantly affect the
DAC5687 SNR for signals > 75 MHz.
Application Examples
Application Example: Real IF Radio
An system example of the DAC5687 used for a flexible real IF radio is shown in Figure 76. A complex baseband
input to the DAC would be generated by a digital upconverter such as Texas Instruments GC4116, GC5016, or
GC5316. The DAC5687 would be used to increase the data rate through interpolation and flexibly place the
output signal using the FMIX and/or CMIX blocks. Although the DAC5687 X4 mode is shown, any of the modes
(X2, X4L, or X8) would be appropriate.

Figure 76. System Diagram of a Real IF System Using the DAC5687
With the DAC5687 in external clock mode, a low-phase-noise clock for the DAC5687 at the DAC sample rate
would be generated by a VCXO and PLL such as Texas Instruments CDC7005, which can also provide other
system clocks at the VCXO frequency divided by 2–n (n = 0 to 4). In this mode, the DAC5687 PLLLOCK pin
output would typically be used to clock the digital upconverter. With the DAC in PLL clock mode, the same input
rate clock would be used for the DAC clock and digital upconverter and the DAC internal PLL/VCO would
generate the DAC sample rate clock. Note that the internal PLL/VCO phase noise may degrade the quality of the
DAC output signal, and also has higher nonharmonic clock-related spurious signals (see the Nonharmonic
Clock-Related Spurious Signals section).
Either DACA or DACB outputs can be used (with the other DAC put into sleep mode) and would typically be
terminated with a transformer (see the Analog Current Outputs section). An IF filter, either LC or SAW, is used to
suppress the DAC Nyquist zone images and other spurious signals before being mixed to RF with a mixer.
An alternative architecture uses the DAC5687 in a dual-channel mode to create a dual-channel system with real
IF input and output. This would be used for narrower signal bandwidth and at the expense of less output
frequency placement flexibility (see Figure 77). Frequency upconversion can be accomplished by using the
high-pass filter and CMIX fDAC/2 mixing features.

An alternative to a real IF system is to use a complex IF DAC output with analog quadrature modulator, as
shown in Figure 78. The same complex baseband input as the real IF system in Figure 76 is used. The
DAC5687 would be used to increase the data rate through interpolation and flexibly place the output signal using

A(t) = I(t)cos(ωct) – Q(t)sin(ωct) = m(t)
B(t) = I(t)sin(ωct) + Q(t)cos(ωct) = mh(t)
where m(t) and mh(t) connote a Hilbert transform pair and ωc is the sum of the NCO and CMIX frequencies.
The complex DAC5687 output is input to an analog quadrature modulator (AQM) such as the TRF3701 or
TRF3702. A passive (resistor-only) interface is recommended between the DAC5687 and TRF3701/2 (See the
Passive Interface to TRF3701/2 section). Upper single-sideband upconversion is achieved at the output of the
analog quadrature modulator, whose output is expressed as:
RF(t) = I(t)cos(ωc + ωLO)t – Q(t)sin(ωc + ωLO)t
Flexibility is provided to the user by allowing for the selection of –B(t) out, which results in lower-sideband
upconversion. This option is selected by usb in the CONFIG3 register.
Note that the process of complex mixing in FMIX and CMIX to translate the signal frequency from 0 Hz means
that the analog quadrature modulator IQ imbalance produces a sideband and LO feedthrough that falls outside
the signal.
This is shown in Figure 79, which is the RF analog quadrature modulator (AQM) output of an asymmetric
three-carrier WCDMA signal with the properties in Table 18. The wanted signal is offset from the LO frequency
by the DAC5687 complex IF, in this case 122.88 MHz. The nearest spurious signals are ~100 MHz away from
the wanted signal (due to nonharmonic clock-related spurious signals generated by the fDAC/4 digital clock),
providing 200 MHz of spurious-free bandwidth. The AQM phase and gain imbalance produce a lower-sideband
product, which does not affect the quality of the wanted signal. Unlike the real IF architecture, the nonharmonic
clock-related spurious signals generated by the fDAC/2 digital clock fall ±245.76-MHz offset from the wanted,
rather than falling in-band.
As a consequence, in the complex IF system it may be possible that no AQM phase, gain and offset correction is
needed, instead relying on RF filtering to remove the LO feedthrough, sideband, and other spurious products.

The complex IF has several advantages over the real IF architecture such as:
• Uncalibrated sideband suppression, ~35 dBc compared to 0 dBc for real IF architecture.
• Direct DAC–complex-mixer connection—no amplifiers
• Nonharmonic clock-related spurious signals fall out-of-band
• DAC second Nyquist zone image is offset fDAC compared with fDAC – 2 × IF for a real IF architecture, reducing
the need for filtering at the DAC output.
• Uncalibrated LO feedthrough for AQM is ~35 dBc and calibration can reduce or completely remove the LO
feedthrough.
Application Example: Wide-Bandwidth Direct Baseband-to-RF Conversion
A system example of the DAC5687 used in a wide-bandwidth direct baseband-to-RF conversion is shown in
Figure 80. The DAC input would typically be generated by a crest factor reduction processor such as Texas
Instruments GC1115 and digital predistortion processor. With a complex baseband input, the DAC5687 would be
used to increase the data rate through interpolation. In addition, phase, gain, and offset correction of the IQ
imbalance is possible using the QMC block, DAC gain, and DAC offset features. The correction could be done
one time during manufacturing (see the TRF3701 data sheet (SLWS145) and the TRF3702 data sheet
(SLWS149) for the variation with temperature, supply, LO frequency, etc., after calibration at nominal conditions)
or during operation with a separate feedback loop measuring imbalance in the RF signal.

Operating at baseband has the advantage that the DAC5687 output is insensitive to DAC sample clock phase
noise, so using the DAC PLL clock mode has similar spectral performance to the external clock mode. In
addition, the nonharmonic clock-related spurious signals are small due to the low DAC output frequency.
With a complex input rate specified up to 250 MSPS, the DAC5687 is capable of producing signals with up to
200-MHz bandwidth for systems such as digital predistortion (DPD).

Application Example: CMTS/VOD Transmitter
The exceptional SNR of the DAC5687 enables a dual-cable modem termination system (CMTS) or video on
demand (VOD) QAM transmitter in excess of the stringent DOCSIS specification, with > 74 dBc and 75 dBc in
the adjacent and alternate channels.
A typical system using the DAC5687 for a cost-optimized dual-channel two-QAM transmitter is shown in
Figure 81. A GC5016 would take four separate symbol rate inputs and provide pulse shaping and interpolation to
~128 MSPS. The four QAM carriers would be combined into two groups of two QAM carriers with intermediate
frequencies of approximately 30 MHz to 40 MHz. The GC5016 would output two real data streams to one
DAC5687. The DAC5687 would function as a dual-channel device and provide 2× interpolation to increase the
frequency of the second Nyquist zone image. The two signals are then output through the two DAC outputs,
through a transformer and to an RF upconverter.

The DAC5687 output for a two-QAM256 carrier signal at 33-MHz and 39-MHz IF with the signal and system
properties listed in Table 19 is shown in Figure 82. The low DAC5687 noise floor provides better than 75 dBc
(equal bandwidth normalized to one QAM256 power) at > 6-MHz offset.
