Low-Leakage Configuration
Leakage current in the DAC flowing into the I
OUT
line
can cause gain, linearity, and offset errors. Leakage is
worse at high temperatures.
Negatively bias V
SS
for a high-temperature, low-leakage
configuration.
Dynamic Considerations
In static or DC applications, the output amplifier’s AC
characteristics are not critical. In higher-speed applica-
tions, where either the reference input is an AC signal
or the DAC output must quickly settle to a new pro-
grammed value, the output op amp’s AC parameters
must be considered.
Another error source in dynamic applications is the par-
asitic signal coupling from the REF terminal to I
OUT
.
This is normally a function of board layout and lead-to-
lead package capacitance. Signals can also be inject-
ed into the DAC outputs when the digital inputs are
switched. This digital feedthrough depends on circuit-
board layout and on-chip capacitive coupling. Minimize
layout-induced feedthrough with guard traces between
digital inputs, REF, and DAC outputs.
