GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DACl132 is a 12 bit, high performance digital-to-analog
converter packaged in a very compact 2" x 2" x 0.4" module.
It comes complete with an input storage register and a fast
settling output amplifier which can be jumper programmed to
produce either of five output voltage ranges. Performance
specifications include 2Jl.S
settling time to 0.01 %, 8ppm/C
gain temperatUre coefficient, :!:~LSB linearity error, and
monotonicity from 0 to +70°C.
The DACl132 combines the ADS 62 integrated circuit
DIA
with a TTL input register, an output amplifier, and a precision
reference source to form a complete converter package. The
laser trimmed ADS62 which consists of precision current
switches, and a very stable thin film resistor network provides
the DACl132 with excellent performance over temperatUre
and makes possible its small module size.
DIGITAL INPUT CHARACTERISTICS
The TTLlDTL compatible storage register contained within
the DAC1132 accepts either Binary or Offset Binary coded
inputs. Digital data appearing at the converter's 12 input ter-
minals will be strobed into the register whenever a positive
going transition is applied to the STROBE input (pin 6).
With the STROBE input held at either logic "0" or logic "1",
the input data may be changed without affecting either the
contents of the register or the output of the converter. The
transfer characteristics of the DACl132 are such that a full
scale digital input (111111111111) results in a positive full
scale voltage output.

OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS
The 12 binary-weighted current sources which form the basis
of the digital-to-analog conversion process are directly con-
trolled by the digital data stored in the input register. The
combined output of these sources is applied to the internal op
amp summing junction to produce a voltage output signal. By
connecting jumpers between the proper module pins, various
values of op amp feedback resistance and thus, output voltage
ranges can be selected.
In order to produce bipolar outputs, the current input to the
internal op amp is offset by ~ Full Scale. This offset current is
generated bv the precision internal reference source and is ap-
plied to the op amp summing junction by means of a jumper
connected betWeen appropriate module terminals.

DIGITAL INPUT DATA
All digital inputs to the DAC1132 are fully DTL/TTL com-
patible, The 12 data inputs (pins 7-18) each represent one
standard TTL load and the STROBE (pin 6) represents two
TTL loads, The converter uses Binary input code to produce
unipolar outputs and Offset Binary code to produce bipolar
outputs,
Provided that certain timing requirements are met, data ap-
pearing at the converter's input terminals is loaded into the
register by the positive-going edge of the strobe pulse, Figure
1 illustrates the required strobe timing,
DATA MUST BE STABLE~
-.<5ns
The two 5krl. feedback resistors associated with the op amp of
Figure 2 are used to determine the output voltage range. Serial
and parallel combinations of these resistors yield three different
resistance values. Table 1 shows the feedback connections used.

Note that the input data must be stable for at least 20ns before
and 5ns after the pulse's leading edge. Note also that the strobe
pulse must be a minimum of 20ns wide. In order to allow ade-
quate time for the converter's analog output to settle between
conversions, the strobe frequency should be limited to 500kHz.

GAIN, AND OFFSET ADJUSTMENTS
The gain and offset adjustments are made with two ex-
ternal potentiometers which the user supplies. With certain
digital inputs applied, these potentiometers are adjusted until
the desired output voltage is obtained. The voltmeter used to
measure the output must be capable of clear and stable resolu-
tion of 1/10LSB in the region of zero and full scale. The
adjustment procedure, described below, should be carefully
followed to assure optimum converter performance.
The proper connection for the offset potentiometer was shown
in Figures 3a and 3b. The gain potentiometer should be connec-
ted as shown below in Figure 4.

For unipolar units apply a digital input of 000000000000 and
adjust the offset potentiometer until an output of OV :tl/l0LSB
is obtained.
For bipolar units apply a digital input of 000000000000 and
adjust the offset potentiometer until the negative full scale out-
put shown in Table 3 is obtained within :tl/l0LSB.
Once the appropriate offset adjustment has been made,
apply a digital input of 111111111111. Adjust the gain
potentiometer until the positive full scale output shown in
Table 2 or Table 3 is obtained within :tl/l0LSB.

Power Supply and Grounding Connections
Capacitors have been added within the DAC1132 to bypass
the :t15V and +5V power inputs. Under normal circum-
stances, no external bypass capacitors are needed.
REFERENCE OUTPUT
The +10V reference output (pin 25) is used to set the con-
verter's gain as shown in Figure 4 and to provide the offset for
bipolar devices as shown in Figure 3. It may also be used to
provide a reference voltage for otner circuits in the user's sys-
tem provided that the output current is limited. No more
than 1.5 mA should be drawn from bipolar devices and no
more than 2.5mA should be drawn from unipolar devices. Ex-
cessive current drain will degrade the converter's analog output
and could damage the internal reference source.
