Figure 29. Data Format for AD5341
POWER-ON RESET
The AD5330/AD5331/AD5340/AD5341 are provided with a
power-on reset function, so that they power up in a defined state.
The power-on state is:
Normal Operation
Reference Input Unbuffered
0 – V
REF
Output Range
Output Voltage Set to 0 V
Both input and DAC registers are filled with zeros and remain so
until a valid write sequence is made to the device. This is
particularly useful in applications where it is important to know
the state of the DAC outputs while the device is powering up.
POWER-DOWN MODE
The AD5330/AD5331/AD5340/AD5341 have low power con-
sumption, dissipating only 0.35 mW with a 3 V supply and
0.7 mW with a 5 V supply. Power consumption can be further
reduced when the DAC is not in use by putting it into power-
down mode, which is selected by taking pin
PD
low.
When the
PD
pin is high, the DAC works normally with a
typical power consumption of 140
μ
A at 5 V (115
μ
A at 3 V).
In power-down mode, however, the supply current falls to
200 nA at 5 V (80 nA at 3 V) when the DAC is powered-down.
Not only does the supply current drop, but the output stage is
also internally switched from the output of the amplifier mak-
ing it open-circuit. This has the advantage that the output is
three-state while the part is in power-down mode and pro-
vides a defined input condition for whatever is connected to
the output of the DAC amplifier. The output stage is illus-
trated in Figure 30.

Figure 30. Output Stage During Power-Down
The bias generator, the output amplifier, the resistor string,
and all other associated linear circuitry are shut down when
the power-down mode is activated. However, the contents
of the registers are unaffected when in power-down. The time
to exit power-down is typically 2.5
μ

= 3 V. This is the time from a rising edge on the
PD
pin to when the output voltage deviates from its power-
down voltage. See Figure 22.
