PD has priority over LDAC and CLR. The
output remains at 0 V through an internal
20 kΩ resistor. It is still possible to address
both the input register and DAC register
when the AD55±0 is in power-down.
Data is written to the input register and
DAC register. CLR has higher priority over
LDACꢂ therefore, the output is at 0 V.

Data is written to the input register only.
The output is at 0 V and remains at 0 V,

the DAC level.
Data is written to the input register only.
The output of the DAC register is

The power-down pin allows the user to place the AD5570 into a
power-down mode. When in this mode, power consumption is
at a minimum; the device consumes only 16 µA typically.
POWER-ON RESET
The AD5570 contains a power-on reset circuit that controls the
output during power-up and power-down. This is useful in
applications where the known state of the output of the DAC
during power-up is important. On power-up and power-down,
the output of the DAC, VOUT, is held at AGND.
The output voltage expression is given by
VOUT = −ꢀVREFIN + ꢁ × VREFIN [D / 65536]
where:
D is the decimal equivalent of the code loaded to the DAC.
V
REFIN is the reference voltage available at the REFIN pin.
