OPERATION
Power-On Reset
The LTC2601/LTC2611/LTC2621 clear the outputs to zero
scale when power is fi rst applied, making system initializa-
tion consistent and repeatable. The LTC2601-1/LTC2611-
1/LTC2621-1 set the voltage outputs to midscale when
power is fi rst applied.
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 LTC2601/
LTC2611/LTC2621 contain circuitry to reduce the power-
on glitch; furthermore, the glitch amplitude can be made
arbitrarily small 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 6) should be kept within the range
–0.3V ≤ V
ings). Particular care should be taken to observe these
limits during power supply turn-on and turn-off sequences,
when the voltage at V
Transfer Function
The digital-to-analog transfer function is:
where k is the decimal equivalent of the binary DAC input
code, N is the resolution and V
(Pin 6).
Serial Interface
The CS/LD input is level triggered. When this input is
taken low, it acts as a chip-select signal, powering-on 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 fi rst; then
4 don’t care bits; and fi nally 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
(LTC2601, LTC2611 and LTC2621 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 execute the command specifi ed in
the 24-bit input word. The complete sequence is shown
in Figure 2a.
The command (C3-C0) assignments are shown in Table
1. The fi rst 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 DAC. In an update operation, the data word
is copied from the input register to the DAC register and
converted to an analog voltage at the DAC output. The
update operation also powers up the 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 option-
ally be extended to 32 bits. To use the 32-bit word width,
8 don’t-care bits are transferred to the device fi rst, followed
by the 24-bit word as just described. Figure 2b shows the
32-bit sequence. The 32-bit word is required for daisy-
chain operation, and is also available to accommodate
microprocessors which have a minimum word width of
16 bits (2 bytes).
Daisy-Chain Operation
The serial output of the shift register appears at the SDO
pin. Data transferred to the device from the SDI input is
delayed 32 SCK rising edges before being output at the
next SCK falling edge.
The SDO output can be used to facilitate control of multiple
serial devices from a single 3-wire serial port (i.e., SCK,
SDI and CS/LD). Such a “daisy chain” series is confi gured
by connecting SDO of each upstream device to SDI of the
