HI5741
DATASHEET
14-Bit, 100MSPS, High Speed D/A Converter
The HI5741 is a 14-bit, 100MSPS, D/A converter which is
implemented in the Intersil BiCMOS 10V (HBC-10) process.
Operating from +5V and -5.2V, the converter provides
20.48mA of full scale output current and includes an input
data register and bandgap voltage reference. Low glitch
energy and excellent frequency domain performance are
achieved using a segmented architecture. The digital inputs
are TTL/CMOS compatible and translated internally to ECL.
All internal logic is implemented in ECL to achieve high
switching speed with low noise. The addition of laser
trimming assures 14-bit linearity is maintained along the
entire transfer curve.

NOTES:
2. Dissipation rating assumes device is mounted with all leads soldered to printed circuit board.
3. Gain Error measured as the error in the ratio between the full scale output current and the current through RSET (typically 1.28mA). Ideally the
ratio should be 16.
4. Parameter guaranteed by design or characterization and not production tested.
5. All devices are 100% tested at +25°C.
6. Dynamic Range must be limited to a 1V swing within the compliance range.
7. In testing MTPR, tone frequencies ranged from 1.95MHz to 3.05MHz. The ratio is measured as the range from peak power to peak distortion in
the region of removed tones.

HI5741
Detailed Description
The HI5741 is a 14-bit, current out D/A converter. The DAC
can convert at 100 MSPS and runs on +5V and -5.2V supplies.
The architecture is an R/2R and segmented switching current
cell arrangement to reduce glitch. Laser trimming is employed
to tune linearity to true 14-bit levels. The HI5741 achieves its
low power and high speed performance from an advanced
BiCMOS process. The HI5741 consumes 650mW (typical) and
has an improved hold time of only 0.25ns (typical). The HI5741
is an excellent converter for use in communications
applications and high performance video systems.
Digital Inputs
The HI5741 is a TTL/CMOS compatible D/A. Data is latched by
a Master register. Once latched, data inputs D0 (LSB) through
D13 (MSB) are internally translated from TTL to ECL. The
internal latch and switching current source controls are
implemented in ECL technology to maintain high switching
speeds and low noise characteristics.
Decoder/Driver
The architecture employs a split R/2R ladder and segmented
current source arrangement. Bits D0 (LSB) through D9 directly
drive a typical R/2R network to create the binary weighted current
sources. Bits D10 through D13 (MSB) pass through a
“thermometer” decoder that converts the incoming data into 15
individual segmented current source enables. This split
architecture helps to improve glitch, thus resulting in a
more constant glitch characteristic across the entire output
transfer function.
Clocks and Termination
The internal 14-bit register is updated on the rising edge of the
clock. Since the HI5741 clock rate can run to 100 MSPS, to
minimize reflections and clock noise into the part, proper
termination should be used. In PCB layout clock runs should be
kept short and have a minimum of loads. To guarantee
consistent results from board to board, controlled impedance
PCBs should be used with a characteristic line impedance ZO of
50.
To terminate the clock line, a shunt terminator to ground is the
most effective type at a 100 MSPS clock rate. A typical value
for termination can be determined by the equation:
RT = ZO

with a ZO of 50, the RT = 50. Shunt termination is best used
at the receiving end of the transmission line or as close to the
HI5741 CLK pin as possible.

Rise and Fall times and propagation delay of the line will be
affected by the shunt terminator. The terminator should be
connected to DGND.
Noise Reduction
To reduce power supply noise, separate analog and digital
power supplies should be used with 0.1F and 0.01F ceramic
capacitors placed as close to the body of the HI5741 as
possible on the analog (AVEE) and digital (DVEE) supplies.
The analog and digital ground returns should be connected
together back at the device to ensure proper operation on
power up. The VCC power pin should also be decoupled with a
0.1F capacitor.
Reduction of digital noise (caused by high slew rates on the bit
inputs to the HI5741) can be accomplished through the use of
series termination resistors. The use of serial resistors, which
combine with the input capacitance of the HI5741 to induce a low
pass filter characteristic, keeps the noise generated by high slew
rate digital signals from corrupting the high accuracy analog data.
Refer to Application Note AN9619 “Optimizing setup conditions
for high accuracy measurements of the HI5741” for further details
on selecting the proper value of series termination to meet
application specific needs.
Reference
The internal reference of the HI5741 is a -1.23V (typical)
bandgap voltage reference with 50V/°C of temperature drift
(typical). The internal reference is connected to the Control
Amplifier which in turn drives the segmented current cells.
Reference Out (REF OUT) is internally connected to the Control
Amplifier. The Control Amplifier Output (CTRL OUT) should be
used to drive the Control Amplifier Input (CTRL IN) and a 0.1F
capacitor to analog VEE . This improves settling time by
providing an AC ground at the current source base node. The
Full Scale Output Current is controlled by the REF OUT pin and
the set resistor (RSET). The ratio is:
IOUT (Full Scale) = (VREF OUT /RSET) x 16.
The internal reference (REF OUT) can be overdriven with a
more precise external reference to provide better performance
over temperature. Figure 21 illustrates a typical external
reference configuration.

Multiplying Capability
The HI5741 can operate in two different multiplying
configurations. For frequencies from DC to 100kHz, a signal of
up to 0.6VP-P can be applied directly to the REF OUT pin as
shown in Figure 22.

Also, the input signal must be limited to 1VP-P to avoid
distortion in the DAC output current caused by excessive
modulation of the internal current sources.

The signal must have a DC value such that the peak negative
voltage equals -1.25V. Alternately, a capacitor can be placed
in series with REF OUT if a DC multiplying is not required. The
lower input bandwidth can be calculated using the following
formula:

The outputs IOUT and IOUT are complementary current outputs.
Current is steered to either IOUT or IOUT in proportion to the
digital input code. The sum of the two currents is always equal to
the full scale current minus one LSB. The current output can be
converted to a voltage by using a load resistor. Both current
outputs should have the same load resistor (64 typically). By
using a 64 load on the output, a 50 effective output resistance
(ROUT) is achieved due to the 227 (15%) parallel resistance
seen looking back into the output. This is the nominal value of the
R2R ladder of the DAC. The 50 output is needed for matching
the output with a 50 line. The load resistor should be chosen so
that the effective output resistance (ROUT) matches the line
resistance. The output voltage is:
VOUT = IOUT x ROUT .
IOUT is defined in the reference section. IOUT is not trimmed to 14
bits, so it is not recommended that it be used in conjunction with
IOUT in a differential-to-single-ended application. The compliance
range of the output is from -1.25V to 0V, with a 1VP-P voltage
swing allowed within this range.

Settling Time
The settling time of the HI5741 is measured as the time it takes
for the output of the DAC to settle to within a ±defined error
band of its final value during a 1/16th (code 0000... to 0001
0000.... or 1111... to 1110 1111...) scale transition. In defining
settling time specifications for the HI5741, two levels of accuracy
are considered. The accuracy levels defined for the HI5741 are
12 (or 0.024%) and 13 (0.012%) bits.
Glitch
The circuit in Figure 23 can be tuned to adjust the lower cutoff
frequency by adjusting capacitor values. Table 1 illustrates the
relationship.

Outputs
The output glitch of the HI5741 is measured by summing the
area under the switching transients after an update of the DAC.
Glitch is caused by the time skew between bits of the incoming
digital data. Typically, the switching time of digital inputs are
asymmetrical meaning that the turn off time is faster than the
turn on time (TTL designs). Unequal delay paths through the
device can also cause one current source to change before
another. In order to minimize this, the Intersil HI5741 employs
an internal register, just prior to the current sources, which is
updated on the clock edge. Lastly, the worst case glitch on
traditional D/A converters usually occurs at the major transition
(i.e., code 8191 to 8192). However, due to the split architecture
of the HI5741, the glitch is moved to the 1023 to 1024
Page 10 of 13
HI5741
transition (and every subsequent 1024 code transitions
thereafter). This split R/2R segmented current source
architecture, which decreases the amount of current switching
at any one time, makes the glitch practically constant over the
entire output range. By making the glitch a constant size over
the entire output range this effectively integrates this error out
of the end application.
In measuring the output glitch of the HI5741 the output is
terminated into a 64 load. The glitch is measured at any one
of the current cell carry (code 1023 to 1024 transition or any
multiple thereof) throughout the DACs output range.
The glitch energy is calculated by measuring the area under
the voltage-time curve. Figure 25 shows the area considered
as glitch when changing the DAC output. Units are typically
specified in picoVolt/seconds (pV/s).

Integral Linearity Error (INL) is the measure of the worst
case point that deviates from a best fit straight line of data
values along the transfer curve.
Differential Linearity Error (DNL) is the measure of the error in
step size between adjacent codes along the converter’s transfer
curve. Ideally, the step size is 1 LSB from one code to the next,
and the deviation from 1 LSB is known as DNL. A DNL
specification of greater than -1 LSB guarantees monotonicity.

Applications
Bipolar Applications
To convert the output of the HI5741 to a bipolar 4V swing, the
following applications circuit is recommended. The reference
can only provide 125A of drive, so it must be buffered to
create the bipolar offset current needed to generate the -2V
output with all bits ‘off’. The output current must be converted
to a voltage and then gained up and offset to produce the
proper swing. Care must be taken to compensate for the
voltage swing and error.
Feedthru is the measure of the undesirable switching noise
coupled to the output.
Output Voltage Full Scale Settling Time is the time required
from the 50% point on the clock input for a full scale step to
settle within an 1/2 LSB error band.
Output Voltage Small Scale Settling Time is the time
required from the 50% point on the clock input for a 100mV
step to settle within an 1/2 LSB error band. This is used by
applications reconstructing highly correlated signals such as
sine waves with more than 5 points per cycle.
Glitch Area (GE) is the switching transient appearing on the
output during a code transition. It is measured as the area
under the curve and expressed as a volt • time specification
(typically pV-s).
Differential Gain (AV) is the gain error from an ideal sine
wave with a normalized amplitude.
Differential Phase () is the phase error from an ideal sine
wave.

Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is the ratio of a fundamental to
the noise floor of the analog output. The first 5 harmonics are
ignored, and an output filter of 1/2 the clock frequency is used
to eliminate alias products.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the ratio of the DAC
output fundamental to the RMS sum of the harmonics. The first
5 harmonics are included, and an output filter of 1/2 the clock
frequency is used to eliminate alias products.
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) is the amplitude
difference from a fundamental to the largest harmonically or
non-harmonically related spur. A sine wave is loaded into the
D/A and the output filtered at 1/2 the clock frequency to
eliminate noise from clocking alias terms.
Multi-Tone Power Ratio (MTPR) is the amplitude difference
from peak amplitude to peak distortion (either harmonic or nonharmonic). An 8 tone pattern is loaded into the D/A. The tone
spacing of this pattern (f) is created such that tones 1 through 4
and 5 through 8 are spaced equally, with tones 4 and 5 spaced
at 2f. MTPR is measured as the dynamic range from peak
power to peak distortion in the 2f gap.
Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) is the measure of the sum
and difference products produced when a two tone input is
driven into the D/A. The distortion products created will arise at
sum and difference frequencies of the two tones. IMD can be
calculated using the following equation:
20Log (RMS of Sum and Difference Distortion Products)
