from the ideal analog output (a straight line drawn from 0 to
F.S. – 1 LSB) for any bit combination. This is also referred to as
relative accuracy. The AD767 is laser trimmed to typically
maintain linearity errors at less than ± 1/8 LSB for the K and B
versions and ± 1/2 LSB for the J, A and S versions. Linearity
over temperature is also held to ± 1/2 LSB (K/B) or ± 1 LSB
(J/A/S).
MONOTONICITY: A DAC is said to be monotonic if the

GAIN ERROR: DAC gain error is a measure of the difference
between an ideal DAC and the actual device’s output span. All
grades of the AD767 have a maximum gain error of 0.2% FS.
However, if this is not sufficient, the error can easily be adjusted
to zero (see Figures 2 and 3).
UNIPOLAR OFFSET ERROR: Unipolar offset error is a
combination of the offset errors of the voltage-mode DAC and
the output amplifier and is measured when the AD767 is
configured for unipolar outputs. It is present for all codes and is
measured with all “0s” in the DAC latches. This is easily
adjustable to zero when required.
BIPOLAR ZERO ERROR: Bipolar zero errors result from
errors produced by the DAC and output amplifier when the
AD767 is configured for bipolar output. Again, as with unipolar
offset and gain errors, this is easily adjusted to zero when
required.

The recommended range of reference voltage is from +8 to

be used. The AD767 is optimized for fixed-reference applications.
If the reference voltage is expected to vary over a wide range in

choice.

USING THE AD767 WITH THE AD588 HIGH PRECISION
VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The AD767 is specified for gain drift from 15 ppm/°C to
30 ppm/°C (depending on grade) using its internal 10 volt
reference. Since the internal reference contributes the majority
of this drift, an external high-precision voltage reference will
greatly improve performance over temperature. As shown in
Figure 4, the 10 volt output from the AD588 is used as the
reference. With a 1.5 ppm/°C output voltage drift the AD588
contributes less than 1/2 LSB gain drift when used with the
AD767 over the industrial temperature range. Using this
combination may result in apparent increases in full-scale error

specified AD767 gain error. The 500 Ω potentiometer in series
with the reference input allows adequate trim range to null this
error.

GROUNDING RULES
The AD767 brings out separate analog and power grounds to
allow optimum connections for low noise and high-speed
performance. These grounds should be tied together at one
point, usually the device power ground. The separate ground
returns are provided to minimize current flow in low-level signal
paths.
The analog ground at Pin 5 is the ground point for the output Figure 5b. Fine-Scale Settling, CF = 0 pF
amplifier and is thus the “high quality” ground for the AD767;
it should be connected directly to the analog reference point of
the system. The power ground at Pin 12 can be connected to
the most convenient ground point; analog power return is
preferred. If power ground contains high frequency noise
beyond 200 mV, this noise may feed through the converter, thus
some caution will be required in applying these grounds.
It is also important to apply decoupling capacitors properly on
the power supplies for the AD767. The correct method for
decoupling is to connect a capacitor from each power supply pin
of the AD767 to the analog ground pin of the AD767. Any load
driven by the output amplifier should also be referred to the
analog ground pin. Figure 5c. Fine-Scale Settling, CF = 20 pF

The low digital input current of the AD767 eliminates the need
for buffer/drivers required by many monolithic converters using
bipolar technology. A single low-power Schottky gate, for
example, will drive several AD767s when connected to a
common bus.

INPUT CODING
The AD767 uses positive-true binary input coding. Logic “1” is
represented by an input voltage greater than 2.0 V, and logic
“0” is defined as an input voltage less than 0.8 V.
Unipolar coding is straight binary, where all zeroes (000H) on Figure 7. 8086 – AD767 Interface

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACE
The AD767, with its 40 ns minimum CS pulse width, may be
easily interfaced to any of today’s high-speed microprocessors.
The 12-bit single buffered input register will accept 12-bit
parallel data from processors such as the 68000, 8086, TMS320

examples follow.
