These parts establish advanced performance standards
for output drive, crosstalk and load regulation in singlesupply, voltage output multiples.
The parts use a simple SPI/MICROWIRE™ compatible
3-wire serial interface which can be operated at clock
rates up to 50MHz.
The LTC2602/LTC2612/LTC2622 incorporate a poweron reset circuit. During power-up, the voltage outputs
rise less than 10mV above zero scale, and after powerup, they stay at zero scale until a valid write and update
take place.

Note 1: Absolute maximum ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: Linearity and monotonicity are defined from code kL to code
2N – 1, where N is the resolution and kL is given by kL = 0.016(2N/VREF),
rounded to the nearest whole code. For VREF = 4.096V and N = 16, kL =
256 and linearity is defined from code 256 to code 65,535.
Note 3: Digital inputs at 0V or VCC.
Note 4: DC crosstalk is measured with VCC = 5V and VREF = 4.096V, with
the measured DAC at midscale, unless otherwise noted.
50
MHz
Note 5: RL = 2kΩ to GND or VCC at the output of the DAC not being tested.
Note 6: Guaranteed by design and not production tested.
Note 7: Inferred from measurement at code 256 (LTC2602), code 64
(LTC2612) or code 16 (LTC2622), and at fullscale.
Note 8: VCC = 5V, VREF = 4.096V. DAC is stepped 1/4 scale to 3/4 scale
and 3/4 scate to 1/4 scale. Load is 2k in parallel with 200pF to GND.
Note 9: VCC = 5V, VREF = 4.096V. DAC is stepped ±LBS between half scale
and half scale –1. Load is 2k in parallel with 200pF to GND.

PIN FUNCTIONS
CS/LD (Pin 1): Serial Interface Chip Select/Load Input.
When CS/LD is low, SCK is enabled for shifting data on SDI
into the register. When CS/LD is taken high, SCK is disabled and the specified command (see Table 1) is executed.
SCK (Pin 2): Serial Interface Clock Input. CMOS and TTL
compatible.
SDI (Pin 3): Serial Interface Data Input. Data is applied to
SDI for transfer to the device at the rising edge of SCK. The
LTC2602/LTC2612/LTC2622 accept input word lengths
of either 24 or 32 bits.
REF (Pin 4): Reference Voltage Input. 0V ≤ VREF ≤ VCC.

OPERATIO
Power-On Reset
The LTC2602/LTC2612/LTC2622 clear the outputs to zero
scale when power is first applied, making system initialization consistent and repeatable.
For some applications, downstream circuits are active
during DAC power-up, and may be sensitive to nonzero
outputs from the DAC during this time. The LTC2602/
LTC2612/LTC2622 contain circuitry to reduce the poweron glitch; furthermore, the glitch amplitude can be made
smaller by reducing the ramp rate of the power supply. For
example, if the power supply is ramped to 5V in 1ms, the
analog outputs rise less than 10mV above ground (typ)
during power-on. See Power-On Reset Glitch in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
Power Supply Sequencing
The voltage at REF (Pin 4) should be kept within the range
– 0.3V ≤ VREF ≤ VCC + 0.3V (see Absolute Maximum
Ratings). Particular care should be taken to observe these
limits during power supply turn-on and turn-off sequences,
when the voltage at VCC (Pin 6) is in transition.
Transfer Function
The digital-to-analog transfer function is
⎛ k⎞
VOUT(IDEAL) = ⎜ N ⎟ VREF
⎝2 ⎠
where k is the decimal equivalent of the binary DAC input
code, N is the resolution and VREF is the voltage at REF
(Pin 4).

Serial Interface
The CS/LD input is level triggered. When this input is taken
low, it acts as a chip-select signal, activating the SDI and
SCK buffers and enabling the input shift register. Data
(SDI input) is transferred at the next 24 rising SCK edges.
The 4-bit command, C3-C0, is loaded first; then the 4-bit
DAC address, A3-A0; and finally the 16-bit data word. The
data word comprises the 16-, 14- or 12-bit input code,
ordered MSB-to-LSB, followed by 0, 2 or 4 don’t-care bits
(LTC2602, LTC2612 and LTC2622 respectively). Data can
only be transferred to the device when the CS/LD signal is
low.The rising edge of CS/LD ends the data transfer and
causes the device to carry out the action specified in the
24-bit input word. The complete sequence is shown in
Figure 2a.
The command (C3-C0) and address (A3-A0) assignments
are shown in Table 1. The first four commands in the table
consist of write and update operations. A write operation
loads a 16-bit data word from the 32-bit shift register into
the input register of the selected DAC, n. An update
operation copies the data word from the input register to
the DAC register. Once copied into the DAC register, the
data word becomes the active 16-, 14- or 12-bit input
code, and is converted to an analog voltage at the DAC
output. The update operation also powers up the selected
DAC if it had been in power-down mode. The data path and
registers are shown in the block diagram.
While the minimum input word is 24 bits, it may optionally
be extended to 32 bits to accommodate microprocessors
which have a minimum word width of 16 bits (2 bytes). To
use the 32-bit word width, 8 don’t-care bits are transferred
to the device first, followed by the 24-bit word as just
described. Figure 2b shows the 32-bit sequence.
Power-Down Mode
For power-constrained applications, power-down mode
can be used to reduce the supply current whenever less
than two outputs are needed. When in power-down, the
buffer amplifiers, bias circuits and reference inputs are
disabled, and draw essentially zero current. The DAC
outputs are put into a high-impedance state, and the

output pins are passively pulled to ground through individual 90kΩ resistors. Input- and DAC-register contents
are not disturbed during power-down.
Either channel or both channels can be put into powerdown mode by using command 0100b in combination with
the appropriate DAC address, (n). The 16-bit data word is
ignored. The supply and reference currents are reduced by
approximately 50% for each DAC powered down; the
effective resistance at REF (pin 4) rises accordingly,
becoming a high-impedance input (typically > 1GΩ) when
both DACs are powered down.
Normal operation can be resumed by executing any command which includes a DAC update, as shown in Table 1.
The selected DAC is powered up as its voltage output is
updated. When a DAC which is in a powered-down state is
powered up and updated, normal settling is delayed. If one
of the two DACs is in a powered-down state prior to the
update command, the power-up delay is 5µs. If, on the
other hand, both DACs are powered down, then the main
bias generation circuit block has been automatically shut
down in addition to the individual DAC amplifiers and
reference inputs. In this case, the power up delay time is
12µs (for VCC = 5V) or 30µs (for VCC = 3V).
Voltage Outputs
Each of the two rail-to-rail amplifiers contained in these
parts has guaranteed load regulation when sourcing or
sinking up to 15mA at 5V (7.5mA at 3V).
Load regulation is a measure of the amplifier’s ability to
maintain the rated voltage accuracy over a wide range of
load conditions. The measured change in output voltage
per milliampere of forced load current change is expressed in LSB/mA.
DC output impedance is equivalent to load regulation, and
may be derived from it by simply calculating a change in
units from LSB/mA to Ohms. The amplifiers’ DC output
impedance is 0.050Ω when driving a load well away from
the rails.
When drawing a load current from either rail, the output
voltage headroom with respect to that rail is limited by the
25Ω typical channel resistance of the output devices; e.g.,
when sinking 1mA, the minimum output voltage = 25Ω •
1mA = 25mV. See the graph Headroom at Rails vs Output
Current in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
The amplifiers are stable driving capacitive loads of up to
1000pF.

OPERATIO
Board Layout
The excellent load regulation and DC crosstalk performance of these devices is achieved in part by keeping
“signal” and “power” grounds separated internally and by
reducing shared internal resistance.
The GND pin functions both as the node to which the
reference and output voltages are referred and as a return
path for power currents in the device. Because of this,
careful thought should be given to the grounding scheme
and board layout in order to ensure rated performance.
The PC board should have separate areas for the analog
and digital sections of the circuit. This keeps digital signals
away from sensitive analog signals and facilitates the use
of separate digital and analog ground planes which have
minimal capacitive and resistive interaction with each
other.
Digital and analog ground planes should be joined at only
one point, establishing a system star ground as close to
the device’s ground pin as possible. Ideally, the analog
ground plane should be located on the component side of
the board, and should be allowed to run under the part to
shield it from noise. Analog ground should be a continuous and uninterrupted plane, except for necessary lead
pads and vias, with signal traces on another layer.
The GND pin of the part should be connected to analog
ground. Resistance from the GND pin to system star
ground should be as low as possible. Resistance here will
add directly to the effective DC output impedance of the
device (typically 0.050Ω), and will degrade DC crosstalk.
Note that the LTC2602/LTC2612/LTC2622 are no more
susceptible to these effects than other parts of their type;
on the contrary, they allow layout-based performance
improvements to shine rather than limiting attainable
performance with excessive internal resistance.
Rail-to-Rail Output Considerations
In any rail-to-rail voltage output device, the output is
limited to voltages within the supply range.
Since the analog outputs of the device cannot go below
ground, they may limit for the lowest codes as shown in
Figure 3b. Similarly, limiting can occur near full scale
when the REF pin is tied to VCC. If VREF = VCC and the DAC
full-scale error (FSE) is positive, the output for the highest
codes limits at VCC as shown in Figure 3c. No full-scale
limiting can occur if VREF is less than VCC – FSE.
Offset and linearity are defined and tested over the region
of the DAC transfer function where no output limiting can
occur.
