APPLICATIONS
LTC1590
Unipolar 2-Quadrant Multiplying Mode
(V
The LTC1590 can be used with a dual op amp to provide
a dual 2-quadrant multiplying DAC as shown in Figure 2.
The unipolar DAC transfer function is shown in Table 1.
The 33pF feedback capacitor is recommended to compen-
sate for the pole caused by the internal feedback resistor
and the OUT1 output capacitance. For high speed op amps
this feedback capacitor is required for stability, and a
smaller value, 8pF to 15pF, may be desired to get the
fastest transient response and shortest settling time. A
larger feedback capacitor can be used to reduce wideband
noise, glitch impulse and distortion for lower frequency
signals. A pole is introduced in the DAC transfer function
at approximately (C
back capacitor will typically give a pole at:

Bipolar 4-Quadrant Multiplying Mode
(V
The circuit of Figure 3 can be used to provide a dual
4-quadrant multiplying DAC. This circuit starts with the
unipolar application circuit and adds three resistors and an
op amp. These extra devices provide a gain of – 2 from the
unipolar output to the bipolar output, plus an offset of
(–1)(V
2. A pack of matched 20k resistors, with two resistors in
parallel forming the 10k resistor, is recommended.
