DESCRIPTION The CAT511 is an 8-Bit Memory DAC designed as an electronic replacement for mechanical potentiometers and trim pots. Intended for final calibration of products such as camcorders, fax machines and cellular telephones on automated high volume production lines and systems capable of self calibration, it is also well suited for applications were equipment requiring periodic adjustment is either difficult to access or located in a hazardous environment. The CAT511 consists of a programmable DAC with independent high and low reference inputs and is capable of a rail to rail output swing. Output settings, stored non-volatile EEPROM memory, are not lost when the device is powered down and are automatically reinstated when power is returned. The output can be dithered to test new output values without effecting the stored setting and can be read back without disturbing the DAC’s output. FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM VDD Control of the CAT511 is accomplished with a simple 3 wire serial interface. A Chip Select pin allows several CAT511's to share a common serial interface and communications back to the host controller is via a single serial data line thanks to the CAT511’s Tri-Stated Data Output pin. A RDY/BSYoutput working in concert with an internal low voltage detector signals proper operation of EEPROM Erase/Write cycle. The CAT511 operates from a single 3–5 volt power supply. The high voltage required for EEPROM Erase/ Write operations is generated on-chip. The CAT511 is available in the 0°C to 70°C Commercial and –40°C to +85°C Industrial operating temperature ranges and offered in 14-pin plastic DIP and Surface mount packages.

Once programmed, the output setting is retained in non-volatile EEPROM memory and will not be lost when power is removed from the chip. Upon power up the DACs return to the setting stored in EEPROM memory. The DAC can be written to and read from without effecting the output voltage during the read or write cycle. The output can also be adjusted without altering the stored output setting, which is useful for testing a new output setting before storing in memory. DIGITAL INTERFACE The CAT511 employs a standard 3 wire serial control interface consisting of Clock (CLK), Chip Select (CS) and Data In (DI) inputs. For all operations, address and data are shifted in LSB first. In addition, all digital data must be preceded by a logic “1” as a start bit. The DAC address and data are clocked into the DI pin on the clock’s rising edge. When sending multiple blocks of information a minimum of two clock cycles is required between the last block sent and the next start bit. Multiple devices may share a common input data line by selectively activating the CS control of the desired IC. Data Outputs (DO) can also share a common line because the DO pin is Tri-Stated and returns to a high impedance when not in use. 5 CHIP SELECT Chip Select (CS) enables and disables the CAT511’s read and write operations. When CS is high data may be read to or from the chip, and the Data Output (DO) pin is active. Data loaded into the DAC control register will remain in effect until CS goes low. Bringing CS to a logic low returns all DAC outputs to the settings stored in EEPROM memory and switches DO to its high impedance Tri-State mode. Because CS functions like a reset the CS pin has been desensitized with a 30 ns to 90 ns filter circuit to prevent noise spikes from causing unwanted resets and the loss of volatile data. CLOCK The CAT511’s clock controls both data flow in and out of the device and EEPROM memory cell programming. Serial data is shifted into the DI pin and out of the DO pin on the clock’s rising edge. While it is not necessary for the clock to be running between data transfers, the clock must be operating in order to write to EEPROM memory, even though the data being saved may already be resident in the DAC control register. No clock is necessary upon system power-up. The CAT511’s internal power-on reset circuitry loads data from EEPROM to the DAC without using the external clock. CAT511 As data transfers are edge triggered clean clock transitions are necessary to avoid falsely clocking data into the control register. Standard CMOS and TTL logic families work well in this regard and it is recommended that any mechanical switches used for breadboarding or device evaluation purposes be debounced by a flip-flop or other suitable debouncing circuit. VREF VREF, the voltage applied between pins VREFH &VREFL, sets the DAC’s Zero to Full Scale output range where VREFL = Zero and VREFH = Full Scale. VREF can span the full power supply range or just a fraction of it. In typical applications VREFH &VREFL are connected across the power supply rails. When using less than the full supply voltage be mindfull of the limits placed on VREFH and VREFL as specified in the "References" section of DC "Electrical Characteristics". READY/BUSY When saving data to non-volatile EEPROM memory, the Ready/Busy ouput (RDY/BSY) signals the start and duration of the EEPROM erase/write cycle. Upon receiving a command to store data (PROG goes high) RDY/ BSY goes low and remains low until the programming cycle is complete. During this time the CAT511 will ignore any data appearing at DI and no data will be output on DO. RDY/BSY is internally ANDed with a low voltage detector circuit monitoring VDD. If VDD is below the minimum value required for EEPROM programming, RDY/BSY will remain high following the program command indicating a failure to record the desired data in non-volatile memory. DATA OUTPUT Data is output serially by the CAT511, LSB first, via the Data Out (DO) pin following the reception of a start bit and two address bits by the Data Input (DI). DO becomes active whenever CS goes high and resumes Figure 1. Writing to Memory to 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 N N+1 N+2 Advanced Information its high impedance Tri-State mode when CS returns low. Tri-Stating the DO pin allows several 511s to share a single serial data line and simplifies interfacing multiple 511s to a microprocessor. WRITING TO MEMORY Programming the CAT511’s EEPROM memory is accomplished through the control signals: Chip Select (CS) and Program (PROG). With CS high, a start bit followed by a two bit DAC address and eight data bits are clocked into the DAC control register via the DI pin. Data enters on the clock’s rising edge. The DAC output changes to its new setting on the clock cycle following D7, the last data bit. Programming is accomplished by bringing PROG high sometime after the start bit and at least 150 ns prior to the rising edge of the clock cycle immediately following the D7 bit. Two clock cycles after the D7 bit the DAC control register will be ready to receive the next set of address and data bits. The clock must be kept running throughout the programming cycle. Internal control circuitry takes care of generating and ramping up the programming voltage for data transfer to the EEPROM cells. The CAT511’s EEPROM memory cells will endure over 1,000,000 write cycles and will retain data for a minimum of 100 years without being refreshed. READING DATA Each time data is transferred into the DAC control register currently held data is shifted out via the D0 pin, thus in every data transaction a read cycle occurs. Note, however, that the reading process is destructive. Data must be removed from the register in order to be read. Figure 2 depicts a Read Only cycle in which no change occurs in the DAC’s output. This feature allows µPs to poll DACs for their current setting without disturbing the output voltage but it assumes that the setting being read is also stored in EEPROM so that it can be restored at the end of the read cycle. In Figure 2 CS returns low before the 13th clock cycle completes. In doing so the EEPROM’s Figure 2.

Since this value is the same as that which had been there previously no change in the DAC’s output is noticed. Had the value held in the control register been different from that stored in EEPROM then a change would occur at the read cycle’s conclusion. TEMPORARILY CHANGE OUTPUT The CAT511 allows temporary changes in the DAC’s output to be made without disturbing the setting retained in EEPROM memory. This feature is particularly useful when testing for a new output setting and allows for user adjustment of preset or default values without losing the original factory settings. Figure 3 shows the control and data signals needed to effect a temporary output change. DAC settings may be changed as many times as required. The temporary setting remain in effect long as CS remains high. When CS returns low the DAC will return to the output value stored in EEPROM memory. When it is desired to save a new setting acquired using this feature, the new value must be reloaded into the DAC control register prior to programming. This is because the CAT511’s internal control circuitry discards from the programming register the new data two clock cycles after receiving it if no PROG signal is received.
