DAC80/80P
Existing applications that are converting to the monolithic
DAC80 must change the gain trim resistor on pin 23 from
33M
to 10M
to insure sufficient adjustment range. Pin
23 is a high impedance point and a 0.001

1F to 0.01
μ
F
ceramic capacitor should be connected from this pin to
Common (pin 21) to prevent noise pickup. Refer to Figure
5 for relationship of Offset and Gain adjustments to unipolar
and bipolar D/A operation.
Unipolar
Offset Adjustment
For unipolar (CSB) configurations, apply the digital input
code that should produce zero potential output and adjust the
Offset potentiometer for zero output.
For bipolar (COB, CTC) configurations, apply the digital
input code that should produce the maximum negative
output. Example: If the Full Scale Range is connected for
20V, the maximum negative output voltage is –10V. See
Table II for corresponding codes.
Gain Adjustment
For either unipolar or bipolar configurations, apply the
digital input that should give the maximum positive output.
Adjust the Gain potentiometer for this positive full scale
output. See Table II for positive full scale voltages and
currents.

NOTE: (1) To obtain values for other binary ranges:
0 to +5V range divide 0 to +10V range values by 2.
±

±

±
2.5V range: divide
±

VOLTAGE OUTPUT MODELS
Output Range Connections
Internal scaling resistors provided in the DAC80 may be
connected to produce bipolar output voltage ranges of
±
10V,
±
5V, or
±
2.5V; or unipolar output voltage ranges of 0 to
+5V or 0 to +10V. See Figure 6.
Gain and offset drift are minimized because of the thermal
tracking of the scaling resistors with other internal device
components. Connections for various output voltage ranges
are shown in Table III. Settling time for a full-scale range
change is specified as 4
μ
s for the 20V range and 3
μ
s for the
10V range.
