Careful PC board ground layout techniques should be
used to minimize crosstalk between DAC outputs, the
reference input(s), and the digital inputs. This is partic-
ularly important if the reference is driven from an AC
source. Figure 7 shows suggested PC board layouts for
minimizing crosstalk.
In unipolar operation, the output voltages and the refer-
ence input(s) are the same polarity. The unipolar circuit
configuration is shown in Figure 8 for the MAX500. The
device can be operated from a single supply with a
slight increase in zero error (see Output Buffer
Amplifiers section). To avoid parasitic device turn-on,
the voltage at V
respect to AGND. The unipolar code table is given in
Table 3.
Each DAC output may be configured for bipolar opera-
tion using the circuit in Figure 9. One op amp and two
resistors are required per channel. With R1 = R2:

Table 4 shows the digital code versus output voltage
for the circuit in Figure 9.

AGND can be biased above DGND to provide an arbi-
trary nonzero output voltage for a “zero” input code. This
is shown in Figure 10. The output voltage at V

all outputs will be offset by V
Since AGND current is a function of the four DAC
codes, it should be driven by a low-impedance source.
