GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
AD9744
1
is a 14-bit resolution, wideband, third generation
member of the TxDAC series of high performance, low power
CMOS digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The TxDAC family,
consisting of pin-compatible 8-, 10-, 12-, and 14-bit DACs, is
specifically optimized for the transmit signal path of communi-
cation systems. All of the devices share the same interface options,
small outline package, and pinout, providing an upward or
downward component selection path based on performance,
resolution, and cost. The
AD9744
offers exceptional ac and dc
performance while supporting update rates up to 210 MSPS.
The
AD9744’s
low power dissipation makes it well suited for
portable and low power applications. Its power dissipation can
be further reduced to a mere 60 mW with a slight degradation
in performance by lowering the full-scale current output. Also,
a power-down mode reduces the standby power dissipation to
approximately 15 mW. A segmented current source architecture
is combined with a proprietary switching technique to reduce
spurious components and enhance dynamic performance.
Edge-triggered input latches and a 1.2 V temperature compensated
band gap reference have been integrated to provide a complete
monolithic DAC solution. The digital inputs support 3 V
CMOS logic families.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The
AD9744
is the 14-bit member of the pin compatible TxDAC
family, which offers excellent INL and DNL performance.
2. Data input supports twos complement or straight binary data
coding.
3. High speed, single-ended CMOS clock input supports
210 MSPS conversion rate.
4. Low power: Complete CMOS DAC function operates on
135 mW from a 2.7 V to 3.6 V single supply. The DAC full-
scale current can be reduced for lower power operation, and a
sleep mode is provided for low power idle periods.
5. On-chip voltage reference: The
AD9744
includes a 1.2 V
temperature compensated band gap voltage reference.
6. Industry-standard 28-lead SOIC, 28-lead TSSOP, and 32-lead
LFCSP packages.
