APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Application Hints
To ensure system performance consistent with AD7628 specifi-
cations, careful attention must be given to the following points:
1. GENERAL GROUND MANAGEMENT: AC or transient
2. OUTPUT AMPLIFIER OFFSET: CMOS DACs exhibit a
3. HIGH FREQUENCY CONSIDERATIONS: The output
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
The dynamic performance of the two DACs in the AD7628 will
depend on the gain and phase characteristics of the output am-
plifiers, together with the optimum choice of the PC board lay-
out and decoupling components. Figure 6 shows the relationship
between input frequency and channel-to-channel isolation.

voltages between the AD7628 AGND and DGND can cause
noise injection into the analog output. The simplest method
of ensuring that voltages at AGND and DGND are equal is
to tie AGND and DGND together at the AD7628. In more
omplex systems where the AGND–DGND intertie is on the
backplane, it is recommended that diodes be connected in
inverse parallel between the AD7628 AGND and DGND
pins (1N914 or equivalent).
code-dependent output resistance which, in turn, causes a
code-dependent amplifier noise gain. The effect is a code-
dependent differential nonlinearity term at the amplifier
output that depends on V
voltage). This differential nonlinearity term adds to the R/2R
differential nonlinearity. To maintain monotonic operation, it
is recommended that amplifier V

capacitance of a CMOS DAC works in conjunction with the
amplifier feedback resistance to add a pole to the open loop
response. This can cause ringing or oscillation. Stability can
be restored by adding a phase compensation capacitor in
parallel with the feedback resistor.

SINGLE SUPPLY APPLICATIONS
The AD7628 DAC R-2R ladder termination resistors are con-
nected to AGND within the device. This arrangement is par-
ticularly convenient for single supply operation because AGND
may be biased at any voltage between DGND and V
8 shows a circuit that provides two +5 V to +8 V analog outputs
by biasing AGND +5 V up from DGND. The two DAC refer-
ence inputs are tied together and a reference input voltage is ob-
tained without a buffer amplifier by making use of the constant
and matched impedances of the DAC A and DAC B reference
inputs. Current flows through the two DAC R-2R ladders into
R1, and R1 is adjusted until the V

+8 V for DAC codes 00000000 to l l l l l l l l .
