APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUITS
The AD5330/AD5331/AD5340/AD5341 can be used with
a wide range of reference voltages, especially if the reference
inputs are configured to be unbuffered, in which case the
devices offer full, one-quadrant multiplying capability over a
reference range of 0.25 V to VDD. More typically, these devices
can be used with a fixed, precision reference voltage.
Figure 43shows a typical setup for the devices when using an external
reference connected to the unbuffered reference inputs. If the
reference inputs are unbuffered, the reference input range is
from 0.25 V to VDD, but if the on-chip reference buffers are
used, the reference range is reduced. Suitable references for 5 V
suitable external reference is the
AD589, a 1.23 V band gap
reference.

DRIVING VDD FROM THE REFERENCE VOLTAGE
If an output range of 0 V to VDD is required, the simplest
solution is to connect the reference inputs to VDD. Because this
supply may not be very accurate and may be noisy, the devices
can be powered from the reference voltage, for example using
a 5 V reference such as the ADP667, as shown in
Figure 44.

BIPOLAR OPERATION USING THE AD5330/AD5331/
AD5340/AD5341
The AD5330/AD5331/AD5340/AD5341 are designed for
single-supply operation, but bipolar operation is achievable
using the circuit shown in
Figure 45. The circuit shown has
been configured to achieve an output voltage range of –5 V <
VO < +5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the amplifier output is
achievable using an
AD820 or
OP295 as the output amplifier.
The output voltage for any input code can be calculated as follows:
VO
= [(1 + R4/R3) × (R2/(R1 + R2) × (2 × VREF × D/2N)] –
R4
× VREF/R3
where:
D
is the decimal equivalent of the code loaded to the DAC.
N
is the DAC resolution.
VREF
is the reference voltage input.

VREF = 2.5 V.

DECODING MULTIPLE AD5330/AD5331/
AD5340/AD5341
The CS pin on these devices can be used in applications to
decode a number of DACs. In this application, all DACs in the
system receive the same data and WR pulses, but only CS to one
of the DACs is active at any one time, so data is only written to
the DAC whose CS is low. If multiple AD5341s are being used, a
common HBEN line is also required to determine if the data is
written to the high byte or low byte register of the selected DAC.
The 74HC139 is used as a 2-line to 4-line decoder to address
any of the DACs in the system. To prevent timing errors, the
enable input should be brought to its inactive state while the
coded address inputs are changing state.
Figure 46 shows a
diagram of a typical setup for decoding multiple devices in a
system. Once data has been written sequentially to all DACs in
