PRODUCTION DATA
The voltage output stage, as conceptualized in Figure 6-2, provides the voltage output according to the DAC code and the output range setting.
The DAC output range can be programmed. Table 6-1 shows the range and corresponding gain.
MODE | VOLTAGE OUTPUT RANGE | GAIN |
---|---|---|
Unipolar | 5 V | 2.0 |
6 V (20% overrange) | 2.4 | |
10 V | 4.0 | |
12 V (20% overrange) | 4.8 | |
20 V | 8.0 | |
24 V (20% overrange) | 9.6 | |
40 V | 16.0 | |
Bipolar | ±5 V | 4.0 |
±6 V (20% overrange) | 4.8 | |
±10 V | 8.0 | |
±12 V (20% overrange) | 9.6 | |
±20 V | 16.0 |
The output voltage (VOUT) can be expressed as Equation 1 and Equation 2.

Where:
The output amplifiers can drive up to ±15 mA with 1.5‑V supply headroom while maintaining the specified total unadjusted error (TUE) specification for the device. The output stage has short-circuit current protection that limits the output current to 40 mA. The device is designed to drive capacitive loads up to 2 nF with the CCOMP pin unconnected. For capacitive loads greater than 2 nF, an external compensation capacitor (470 pF typical) must be connected between the CCOMP and VOUT pins to keep the output voltage stable, but at the expense of reduced bandwidth and increased settling time. With the external compensation capacitor, the device is able to drive capacitive loads up to 1 µF (Section 5.5).
