Very Low Power
High Accuracy INL: 1LSB

16-Pin TSSOP Package
Selectable Reset to Zero or Midscale
The DAC8871 is a 16-bit, single-channel, serial input,
voltage output digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The
output range is determined by the reference voltage,
VREFH and VREFL. By properly selecting the reference,
the output can be unipolar or bipolar, and up to ±18V.
The DAC8871 provides excellent linearity (1LSB INL),
low noise, and fast settling (1µs to 1LSB of full scale
output) over the specified temperature range of
–40°C to +105°C. The output is unbuffered, which
reduces the power consumption and the error
introduced by the buffer. This device features a
standard high-speed clock (up to 50MHz), and a 3V
or 5V SPI serial interface to communicate with the
DSP or microprocessors. For optimum performance,
a set of Kelvin connections to external reference are
provided.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

Slew Rate is measured from 10% to 90% of transition when the output changes from 0 to full scale.
Digital feedthrough is defined as the impulse injected into the analog output from the digital input. It is measured when the DAC output
does not change; CS is held high, while SCLK and DIN signals are toggled. It is specified with a full-scale code change on the SDI bus
(that is, from all 0s to all 1s and vice versa).
Reference input resistance is code-dependent, with a minimum at 8555h

THEORY OF OPERATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DAC8871 is a 16-bit, single-channel, serial-input, voltage-output DAC. It operates from a dual power supply
ranging from ±13.5V to ±19.8V, and typically consumes 10µA. The output range is from VREFL to VREFH. Data are
written to this device in a 16-bit word format, via an SPI serial interface. To ensure a known power-up state, the
DAC8871 is designed with a power-on reset function. After power on, the state of the RSTSEL pin sets the value
of the input register and DAC latch, which sets the output state of the VOUT pin. Refer to the Power-On Reset and
Hardware Reset section for more details.
Kelvin sense connections for the reference and analog ground are also included.
DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG SECTIONS
The DAC architecture consists of two matched DAC sections and is segmented. A simplified circuit diagram is
shown in Figure 38. The four MSBs of the 16-bit data word are decoded to drive 15 switches, E1 to E15. Each of
these switches connects one of 15 matched resistors to either VREFH or VREFL. The remaining 12 bits of the data
word drive switches S0 to S11 of a 12-bit voltage mode R-2R ladder network.

OUTPUT RANGE
The output of the DAC is:
* VREFL

Code ) V REFL

Where Code is the decimal data word loaded to the DAC latch.
For example, if VREFH is +10V, and VREFL is –10V, the range of VOUT is from –10V (Code = 0000h) to +10V (Code
= FFFFh).
The range of VREFL is from –18V to (VREFH – 1.25V), and the range of VREFH is 0V to +18V. The output from the
DAC8871 can be unipolar (from 0V to +18V) or bipolar by setting the proper VREFL and VREFH values.

POWER-ON RESET AND HARDWARE RESET
The DAC8871 has a power-on reset function. When the RSTSEL pin is low (tied to DGND), and after power-on
or a hardware reset signal is applied to the RST pin, the DAC latch is cleared ('0') and the VOUT pin is set to
negative full-scale. When RSTSEL is high, the DAC latch and VOUT are set to mid-scale.
SERIAL INTERFACE
The DAC8871 digital interface is a standard 3-wire connection compatible with SPI, QSPI™, Microwire™ and TI
DSP™ interfaces, which can operate at speeds up to 50 Mbits/second. The data transfer is framed by the chip
select (CS) signal. The DAC works as a bus slave. The bus master generates the synchronize clock (SCLK) and
initiates the transmission. When CS is high, the DAC is not accessed, and SCLK and SDI are ignored. The bus
master accesses the DAC by driving CS low. Immediately following the high-to-low transition of CS, the serial
input data on the SDI pin are shifted out from the bus master synchronously on the falling edge of SCLK and
latched on the rising edge of SCLK into the input shift register, MSB first. The low-to-high transition of CS
transfers the content of the input shift register to the input register.
All data registers are 16 bits. It takes 16 SCLK cycles to transfer one data word to the device. To complete a
whole data word, CS must be taken high immediately after the 16th SCLK is clocked in. If more than 16 SCLK
cycles are applied while CS is low, the last 16 bits are transferred into the input register on the rising edge of CS.
However, if CS is not kept low during the entire 16 SCLK cycles, the data are corrupted. In this case, reload the
DAC latch with a new 16-bit word.
The DAC8871 has an LDAC pin that allows the DAC latch to be updated asynchronously by bringing LDAC low
after CS goes high. In this case, LDAC must be kept high while CS is low. If LDAC is permanently tied low, the
DAC latch will be updated immediately after the input register is loaded (caused by the low-to-high transition of
CS).
EXTERNAL AMPLIFIER SELECTION
The output of the DAC8871 is unbuffered. The output impedance is approximately 6.2kΩ. If the applications
require an external buffer amplifier, the selected amplifier must have a low-offset voltage (1LSB = 305µV for
±10V output range), eliminating the need for output offset trims. Input bias current should also be low because
the bias current multiplied by the DAC output impedance (approximately 6.25kΩ) adds to the zero-code error.
Rail-to-rail input and output performance is required. For fast settling, the slew rate of the operational amplifier
should not impede the settling time of the DAC. The output impedance of the DAC is constant and
code-independent, but in order to minimize gain errors, the input impedance of the output amplifier should be as
high as possible. The amplifier should also have a 3dB bandwidth of 1MHz or greater. The amplifier adds
another time constant to the system, thus increasing the settling time of the output. A higher 3dB amplifier
bandwidth results in a shorter effective settling time of the DAC and amplifier combination.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
REFERENCE INPUT
The DAC full-scale output voltage is determined by the reference voltage, as shown in the Output Range section.
Reference input VREFH can be any voltage from 0V to +18V. Reference input VREFL can be any voltage from
–18V to (VREFH – 1.25V). The current into the VREFH input and out of VREFL depends on the DAC output voltages.
Refer to Figure 27 and Figure 28 for details. The reference input appears as a varying load to the reference. If
the reference can sink or source the required current, a reference buffer is not required. The DAC8871 features a
reference drive (force) and sense connection that minimizes the internal errors caused by the changing reference
current and the circuit impedances. Figure 40 shows a typical reference configuration.

POWER-SUPPLY BYPASSING
For accurate, high-resolution performance, bypassing the supply pins with a 10µF tantalum capacitor in parallel
with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor is recommended.
POWER-SUPPLY SEQUENCING
The analog supplies (VCC and VSS) must power up before the digital supply (VDD). All three supplies must power
up before the reference voltages (VREFH and VREFL) are applied. Additionally, because the DAC input shift
register is not reset during a power-on reset (or a hardware reset through the RST pin), the CS pin must not be
unintentionally asserted during power-up of the device. It is recommended that the CS pin be connected to VDD
through a pull-up resistor to avoid improper power-up.
Likewise, the state of the LDAC pin must not be accidentally changed during power-up. It is recommended that
the LDAC pin be connected to VDD through a pull-up resistor, unless it is permanently tied to ground.
To ensure that the ESD protection circuitry of this device is not activated, all other digital pins must be kept at
ground potential until VDD is applied.
