8.3.1 DAC Section

The DACx311 are fabricated using Texas Instruments' proprietary HPA07 process technology. The architecture consists of a string DAC followed by an output buffer amplifier. Because there is no reference input pin, the power supply (AVDD) acts as the reference. Figure 8-1 shows a block diagram of the DAC architecture.

The input coding to the DACx311 is straight binary, so the ideal output voltage is given by:

Equation 1. GUID-984707A3-ABBD-4AC7-940E-DB3280C42742-low.gif

where

  • n = resolution in bits; either 8 (DAC5311), 10 (DAC6311), or 12 (DAC7311).
  • D = decimal equivalent of the binary code that is loaded to the DAC register. D ranges from 0 to 255 for 8-bit DAC5311, 0 to 1023 for the 10-bit DAC6311, and 0 to 4095 for the 12-bit DAC7311.
