Features
The HI5760 is a 10-bit, 125 MSPS, high speed, low power,
D/A converter which is implemented in an advanced CMOS
process. Operating from a single +3V to +5V supply, the
converter provides 20mA of full scale output current and
includes edge-triggered CMOS input data latches. Low glitch
energy and excellent frequency domain performance are
achieved using a segmented current source architecture. For
an equivalent performance dual version, see the HI5728. For
lower speed applications, a 60 MSPS version is available.

NOTES:
2. Gain Error measured as the error in the ratio between the full scale output current and the current through RSET (typically 625µA). Ideally the
ratio should be 31.969.
3. Parameter guaranteed by design or characterization and not production tested.
4. Spectral measurements made with differential coupled transformer.
5. Measured with the clock at 50 MSPS and the output frequency at 1MHz.
6. Measured with the clock at 100 MSPS and the output frequency at 40MHz.
7. See ‘Definition of Specifications’.
8. It is recommended that the output current be reduced to 12mA or less to maintain optimum performance for operation below 3V. Also, the intended operating voltage is AVDD = DVDD .

Definition of Specifications
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
step size output deviation from code to code. Ideally the step
size should be 1 LSB. A DNL specification of 1 LSB or less
guarantees monotonicity.
3-83
Output Settling Time, is the time required for the output
voltage to settle to within a specified error band measured
from the beginning of the output transition. In the case of the
HI5760, the measurement was done by switching from code
0 to 256, or quarter scale. Termination impedance was 25Ω
due to the parallel resistance of the output 50Ω and the
oscilloscope’s 50Ω input. This also aids the ability to resolve
the specified error band without overdriving the oscilloscope.
HI5760
Singlet Glitch Area, is the switching transient appearing on
the output during a code transition. It is measured as the
area under the overshoot portion of the curve and is
expressed as a Volt-Time specification. This is tested under
the same conditions as ‘Output Settling Time.’
Full Scale Gain Error, is the error from an ideal ratio of 32
between the output current and the full scale adjust current
(through RSET).
Full Scale Gain Drift, is measured by setting the data inputs
to all ones and measuring the output voltage through a
known resistance as the temperature is varied from Tmin to
Tmax. It is defined as the maximum deviation from the value
measured at room temperature to the value measured at
either Tmin or Tmax. The units are ppm of FSR (full scale
range) per degree C.
Total Harmonic Distortion, THD, is the ratio of the DAC
output fundamental to the RMS sum of the first five
harmonics.
Spurious Free Dynamic Range, SFDR, is the amplitude
difference from the fundamental to the largest harmonically or
non-harmonically related spur within the specified window.
Output Voltage Compliance Range, is the voltage limit
imposed on the output. The output impedance load should
be chosen such that the voltage developed does not violate
the compliance range.
Offset Error, is measured by setting the data inputs to all
zeros and measuring the output voltage through a known
resistance. Offset error is defined as the maximum deviation
of the output current from a value of 0mA.
Offset Drift, is measured by setting the data inputs to all
zeros and measuring the output voltage through a known
resistance as the temperature is varied from Tmin to Tmax.
It is defined as the maximum deviation from the value
measured at room temperature to the value measured at
either Tmin or Tmax. The units are ppm of FSR (full scale
range) per degree C.
Power Supply Rejection, is measured using a single power
supply. Its nominal +5V is varied ±10% and the change in the
DAC full scale output is noted.
Reference Input Multiplying Bandwidth, is defined as the
3dB bandwidth of the voltage reference input. It is measured
by using a sinusoidal waveform as the external reference
with the digital inputs set to all 1s. The frequency is
increased until the amplitude of the output waveform is 0.707
of its original value.
Internal Reference Voltage Drift, is defined as the
maximum deviation from the value measured at room
temperature to the value measured at either Tmin or Tmax.
The units are ppm per degree C.

Detailed Description
The HI5760 is a 10-bit, current out, CMOS, digital to analog
converter. Its maximum update rate is 125MSPS and can be
powered by either single or dual power supplies in the
recommended range of +3V to +5V. It consumes less than
165mW of power when using a +5V supply with the data
switching at 100MSPS. The architecture is based on a
segmented current source arrangement that reduces glitch
by reducing the amount of current switching at any one time.
The five MSBs are represented by 31 major current sources
of equivalent current. The five LSBs are comprised of binary
weighted current sources. Consider an input waveform to the
converter which is ramped through all the codes from 0 to
1023. The five LSB current sources would begin to count up.
When they reached the all high state (decimal value of 31)
and needed to count to the next code, they would all turn off
and the first major current source would turn on. To continue
counting upward, the 5 LSBs would count up another 31
codes, and then the next major current source would turn on
and the five LSBs would all turn off. The process of the
single, equivalent, major current source turning on and the
five LSBs turning off each time the converter reaches
another 31 codes greatly reduces the glitch at any one
switching point. In previous architectures that contained all
binary weighted current sources or a binary weighted
resistor ladder, the converter might have a substantially
larger amount of current turning on and off at certain, worstcase transition points such as mid-scale and quarter scale
transitions. By greatly reducing the amount of current
switching at certain ‘major’ transitions, the overall glitch of
the converter is dramatically reduced, improving settling
times and transient problems.
Digital Inputs and Termination
The HI5760 digital inputs are guaranteed to CMOS levels.
However, TTL compatibility can be achieved by lowering the
supply voltage to 3V due to the digital threshold of the input
buffer being approximately half of the supply voltage. The
internal register is updated on the rising edge of the clock. To
minimize reflections, proper termination should be
implemented. If the lines driving the clock and the digital
inputs are 50Ω lines, then 50Ω termination resistors should
be placed as close to the converter inputs as possible to the
digital ground plane (if separate grounds are used).
Ground Plane(s)
If separate digital and analog ground planes are used, then
all of the digital functions of the device and their
corresponding components should be over the digital ground
plane and terminated to the digital ground plane. The same
is true for the analog components and the analog ground
plane. The converter will function properly with a single
ground plane, as the Evaluation Board is configured in this
matter. Refer to the AppNote on the HI5760 Evaluation
Board for further discussion of the ground plane(s) upon
availability.
Noise Reduction
To minimize power supply noise, 0.1µF capacitors should be
placed as close as possible to the converter’s power supply
pins, AVDD and DVDD. Also, should the layout be designed
HI5760
using separate digital and analog ground planes, these
capacitors should be terminated to the digital ground for
DVDD and to the analog ground for AVDD. Additional filtering
of the power supplies on the board is recommended. See
the AppNote on the HI5760 Evaluation Board for more
information upon availability.
Voltage Reference
The internal voltage reference of the device has a nominal
value of +1.2V with a ± 60 ppm / oC drift coefficient over the
full temperature range of the converter. It is recommended
that a 0.1µF capacitor be placed as close as possible to the
REFIO pin, connected to the analog ground. The REFLO
pin (16) selects the reference. The internal reference can
be selected if pin 16 is tied low (ground). If an external
reference is desired, then pin 16 should be tied high (to the
analog supply voltage) and the external reference driven
into REFIO, pin 17. The full scale output current of the
converter is a function of the voltage reference used and
the value of RSET. IOUT should be within the 2mA to 20mA
range, through operation below 2mA is possible, with
performance degradation.
These outputs can be used in a differential-to-single-ended
arrangement to achieve better harmonic rejection. The
SFDR measurements in this data sheet were performed with
a 1:1 transformer on the output of the DAC (see Figure 1).
With the center tap grounded, the output swing of pins 21
and 22 will be biased at zero volts. It is important to note
here that the negative voltage output compliance range limit
is -300mV, imposing a maximum of 600mVP-P amplitude
with this configuration. The loading as shown in Figure 1 will
result in a 500mV signal at the output of the transformer if
the full scale output current of the DAC is set to 20mA.

FIGURE 42.
The calculation for IOUT(Full Scale) is:
VOUT = 2 x IOUT x REQ, where REQ is ~12.5Ω.
IOUT (Full Scale) = (VREF/RSET)x 32.
Allowing the center tap to float will result in identical
transformer output, however the output pins of the DAC will
have positive DC offset. The 50Ω load on the output of the
transformer represents the spectrum analyzer’s input
impedance.
If the full scale output current is set to 20mA by using the
internal voltage reference (1.16V) and a 1.86kΩ RSET
resistor, then the input coding to output current will resemble
the following:

Outputs
IOUTA and IOUTB are complementary current outputs. The
sum of the two currents is always equal to the full scale
output current minus one LSB. If single ended use is
desired, a load resistor can be used to convert the output
current to a voltage. It is recommended that the unused
output be either grounded or equally terminated. The voltage
developed at the output must not violate the output voltage
compliance range of -0.3V to 1.25V. RLOAD should be
chosen so that the desired output voltage is produced in
conjunction with the output full scale current, which is
described above in the ‘Reference’ section. If a known line
impedance is to be driven, then the output load resistor
should be chosen to match this impedance. The output
voltage equation is:
VOUT = IOUT X RLOAD.
