LOGIC INPUT COMPATIBILITY
GAIN AND OFFSET ADJUSTMENTS
The DAC712 digital inputs are TTL-compatible (1.4V
switching level) with low-leakage, high-impedance
inputs. Thus, the inputs are suitable for being driven
by any type of 5V logic such as 5V CMOS logic. An
equivalent circuit of a digital input is shown in
Figure 9.
Figure 10 illustrates the relationship of offset and gain
adjustments for a bipolar connected D/A converter.
Offset should be adjusted first to avoid interaction of
adjustments. Table 1 shows calibration values and
codes. These adjustments have a minimum range of
±0.3%.
Data inputs float to logic '0' and control inputs float to
logic '0' if left unconnected. It is recommended that
any unused inputs be connected to DCOM to improve
noise immunity.

Calibration Values
The DAC712 is designed to accept positive-true
binary twos complement (BTC) input codes that are
compatible with bipolar analog output operation. For
bipolar analog output configuration, a digital input of
7FFFh gives a positive full-scale output, 8000h gives
a negative full-scale output, and 0000h gives bipolar
zero output.

The DAC712 contains a +10V reference.
The reference output may be used to drive external
loads, sourcing up to 2mA. The load current should
be constant, otherwise the gain and bipolar offset of
the converter will vary.

OUTPUT VOLTAGE SWING
The output amplifier of the DAC712 is committed to a
±10V output range. The DAC712 provides a ±10V
output swing while operating on ±11.4V or higher
voltage supplies.
Offset Adjustment
Apply the digital input code that produces the
maximum negative output voltage and adjust the
offset potentiometer or the offset adjust D/A converter
for –10V.
