APPLICATIONS Automatic Test Equipment Programmable Filters Audio Applications Synchro Applications Process Control

GENERAL DESCRIPTION The AD7937 contains two 12-bit current output DACs on one monolithic chip. A separate reference input is provided for each DAC. The dual DAC saves valuable board space, and the monolithic construction ensures excellent thermal tracking. Both DACs are guaranteed 12-bit monotonic over the full temperature range.

The AD7937 has a 2-byte eight LSBs, four MSBs loading structure. It is designed for right-justified data format. The control signals for register loading are A0, A1, CS, WR, and UPD. Data is loaded to the input registers when CS and WR are low. To transfer this data to the DAC registers, UPD must be taken low with WR.

Added features on the AD7937 include an asynchronous CLR line which is very useful in calibration routines. When this is taken low, all registers are cleared. The double buffering of the data inputs allows simultaneous update of both DACs. Also, each DAC has a separate AGND line. This increases the device versatility for instance, one DAC may be operated with AGND biased while the other is connected in the standard configuration.

The AD7937 is manufactured using the Linear Compatible CMOS LC2MOS process. It is speed compatible with most microprocessors and accepts TTL, 74HC, and 5 V CMOS logic level inputs.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS DAC-to-DAC Matching

Since both DACs are fabricated on the same chip, precise matching and tracking is inherent. Many applications that are not practical using two discrete DACs are now possible. Typical matching:

Small Package Size The AD7937 is packaged in a small 24-lead SOIC.

Wide Power Supply Tolerance The device operates on a 5 V VDD, with ± 10% tolerance on this nominal figure. All specifications are guaranteed over this range.

CAUTION ESD electrostatic discharge sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the AD7937 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
