DAC8408
SINGLE SUPPLY, VOLTAGE OUTPUT OPERATION
The DAC8408 can be connected with a single +5 V supply to
produce DAC output voltages from 0 V to +1.5 V. In Figure 8,
the DAC8408 R-2R ladder is inverted from its normal connec-
tion. A +1.500 V reference is connected to the current output pin
4 (I
output. Instead of a normal current output, the R-2R ladder out-
puts a voltage. The OP-490, consisting of four precision low
power op amps that can operate its inputs and outputs to zero
volts, buffers the DAC to produce a low impedance output volt-
age from 0 V to +1.5 V full-scale. Table III shows the code table.
With the supply and reference voltages as shown, better than 1/2
LSB differential and integral nonlinearity can be expected. To
maintain this performance level, the +5 V supply must not drop
below 4.75 V. Similarly, the reference voltage must be no higher
than 1.5 V. This is because the CMOS switches require a mini-
mum level of bias in order to maintain the linearity performance.
