8.4 Power Supply Recommendations

The AFEx81H1 can operate within a single-supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V applied to the PVDD pin. When 2.7 V to 5.5 V is provided to PVDD, an internal LDO is enabled that drives VDD internally. VDD pin must have 1 μF to 10 μF of capacitance for operation.

The AFEx81H1 can also be operated with a lower supply voltage of 1.71 V to 1.89 V applied to the PVDD pin. When the voltage is within this lower range, the internal LDO is not operational, and the lower external supply on the PVDD pin must be tied to the VDD pin.

The digital interface supply, IOVDD, can operate with a supply range of 1.71 V to 5.5 V.

Switching power supplies and DC/DC converters often have high-frequency glitches or spikes riding on the output voltage. In addition, digital components can create similar high-frequency spikes. This noise can easily couple into the DAC output voltage or current through various paths between the power connections and analog output. To further reduce noise, include bulk and local decoupling capacitors. The current consumption on the PVDD and IOVDD pins, the short-circuit current limit for the voltage output, and the current ranges for the current output are listed in the Electrical Characteristics. The power supply must meet the requirements listed in the Recommended Operating Conditions.
