8.3 Power Supply Recommendations

The DAC82002 operates within the specified VDD supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The DAC82002 does not

require specific supply sequencing, but VREF must be less than VDD, as noted in the Absolute Maximum Ratings.

The VDD supply must be well-regulated and low-noise. Switching power supplies and DC/DC converters often

have high-frequency glitches or spikes riding on the output voltage. Digital components also create similar

high-frequency spikes. This noise can easily couple into the DAC output voltage through various paths between

the power connections and analog output. To further minimize noise from the power supply, include a 1-μF to

10-μF capacitor and 0.1-μF bypass capacitor.

8.4 Layout

8.4.1 Layout Guidelines

A precision analog component requires careful layout. The following list provides some insight into good layout

practices.

• Bypass the VDD to ground with a low ESR ceramic bypass capacitor. The typical recommended bypass

capacitance is 0.1-µF to 0.22-µF ceramic capacitor, with a X7R or NP0 dielectric.

• Bypass VREF to ground with low ESR ceramic bypass capacitors.

• Place power supplies and REF bypass capacitors close to the pins to minimize inductance and optimize

performance.

• The output pins, VOUTA and VOUTB (VOUTx), have relatively high impedance and are susceptible to high

parasitic capacitance. Use short and direct traces when routing VOUTx.
