GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This broad family
of
digital-to-analog converters represents the
"state
of
the art" in modular, high speed, voltage and current
output devices. The family consists
of
a total
of
11 devices in
4 series (MDS, MDSE, MDSL and MDH) that allow the user to
make engineering trade-offs between resolution, speed, output
and logic type. The first 3 are high compliance current output
unitS which make possible linear output swings greater than
:t1.5V. The voltage output MDH series contain a fast settling
hybrid operational amplifier which provides:t 10V output at
:t5OmA. To simplify selection these major specifications are
summarized in Table 1.

achieve ultra-high speed operation. In fact, it is the fastest 12-
bit D/A available, settling to 0.025% in 40ns. Hybrid construc-
tion eliminates the thermal lag problem inherent in 12-bit
D/A's constructed with discrete componentS. This in turn
means that the accuracy is maintained over the total frequency
range of operation, yielding superior results for frequency do-
main applications.

Table
The MDS-1240 is particularly well suited for CRT display ap-
plications because
of
its unsurpassed speed and drive capa-
bilities. The high output current (ISmA) allows the use of low
impedance loads so that settling times remain short - even
with higher output voltage levels. The ability to drive load ca-
pacitance is at least 3 times that of other 12-bit D/A's thus
providing capability to drive a terminated transmission line
directly. The MDS-815 and MDS-I020 provide similar per-
formance at 8 and 10 bits, while the MDS-E units provide it
with ECL logic. MDSL-082S, MDSL-I035 and MDSL-12S0
also utilize this reliable hybrid construction. The use
of
laser
trimmed resistor networks within the D/A's not only elimi-
nates thermal time lag errors but provide the linearity temp-
co of 2ppmtC; guaranteeing monotonic operation over the
extended temperature range of -30°C to +8SoC. The power
dissipation of the MDSL series is one-half that of competi-
tive D/A's, but a full SmA output current is maintained. This
allows driving transmission lines or other low impedance loads
directly.
