Power-Down Mode
For power-constrained applications, the power-down mode
can be used to reduce the supply current whenever one or
both of the DAC outputs are not needed. When in power-
down, the buffer amplifiers, bias circuits and reference input
are disabled and draw essentially zero current. The DAC
outputs are put into a high impedance state, and the output
pins are passively pulled to V_REFLO through 90k resistors.
Input-register and DAC-register contents are not disturbed
during power-down.
Either or both DAC channels can be put into power-down
mode by using command 0100b in combination with the
appropriate DAC address. The 16-bit data word is ignored.
The supply and reference currents are reduced by approxi-
mately 50% for each DAC powered down; the effective
resistance at REF (Pin 9) rises accordingly, becoming a
high-impedance input (typically > 1GΩ) when both DACs
are powered down.
Normal operation can be resumed by executing any
command which includes a DAC update, as shown in
Table 2 or performing an asychronous update (LDAC) as
described in the next section. The selected DAC is powered
up as its voltage output is updated. When a DAC in powered-
down state is powered up and updated, normal settling
is delayed. If one of the two DACs is in a powered- down
state prior to the update command, the power up delay is
5µs. If on the other hand, both DACs are powered down,
the main bias generation circuit has been automatically
shut down in addition to the DAC amplifiers and reference
input and so the power up delay time is
12µs (for V_CC = 5V) or 30µs (for V_CC = 3V)
Asynchronous DAC Update Using LDAC
In addition to the update commands shown in Table 2, the
LDAC pin asynchronously updates the DAC registers with
the contents of the input registers. Asynchronous update
is disabled when the input word is being clocked into
the part.
