SINGLE-SUPPLY APPLICATIONS
Current Mode Operation
In the current mode circuit of Figure 32, I
is biased positive by an amount applied to V
configuration, the output voltage is given by
As D varies from 0 to 255, the output voltage varies from
V
sourcing all possible variations in current at the I
without any problems.
It is important to note that V
the switches in the DAC ladder no longer have the same source-
drain drive voltage. As a result, their on resistance differs and
this degrades the linearity of the DAC.
Voltage Switching Mode of Operation
Figure 33 shows this DAC operating in the voltage switching
mode. The reference voltage V
I
at the V
voltage results in a positive output voltage, making single-
supply operation possible. The output from the DAC is voltage
at a constant impedance (the DAC ladder resistance), thus an
op amp is necessary to buffer the output voltage. The reference
input no longer sees constant input impedance, but one that
varies with code. So, the voltage input should be driven from a
low impedance source.

It is important to note that V
the switches in the DAC ladder no longer have the same source
drain drive voltage. As a result, their on resistance differs, which
degrades the linearity of the DAC.

internal diode turns on, exceeding the maximum ratings of the
device. In this type of application, the full range of the DAC
multiplying capability is lost.
POSITIVE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Note that the output voltage polarity is opposite to the V
polarity for dc reference voltages. To achieve a positive voltage
output, an applied negative reference to the input of the DAC is
preferred over the output inversion through an inverting
amplifier because of the resistor tolerance errors. To generate a
negative reference, the reference can be level shifted by an
op amp such that the V
become the virtual ground and −2.5 V respectively, as shown
in Figure 34.
