Quad 12-/10-/8-Bit PWM to VOUT DACs with 10ppm/°C Reference

Linear Technology 

LTC2645

Operation

The LTC2645 is a family of quad PWM input, voltage output

DACs in a 16-lead MSOP package. The part measures the

pulse width and period of the PWM inputs and updates

each DAC output after the corresponding PWM input

rising edge. Each DAC can operate rail-to-rail using an

external reference, or with a 2.5V full-scale voltage using

an integrated reference. Three resolutions (12-, 10-, and

8-bit) are available.

PWM-to-Voltage Conversion

The LTC2645 converts a PWM input to an accurate, stable,

buffered voltage without the latency, slow settling, and high-

value passive components required for discrete solutions.

The PWM input pins (INX) accept frequencies from 30Hz

up to 6.25kHz (12-bit), 25kHz (10-bit), or 100kHz (8-bit).

The duty cycle is calculated after each PWM input rising

edge based upon the previous high and low pulse width.

The resulting digital DAC code k is calculated as:

k = 2N • tPWHX / tPERX

where tPWHX is the pulse width of the preceding INX period

and tPERX is the time between the two most recent INX

rising edges. The digital-to-analog transfer function is:

where N is the resolution, VREF is 2.5V for internal reference

mode or the REF pin voltage for external reference mode.

DAC Update Timing

The update for DAC output VOUTX occurs following each

rising edge input on INX (Figure 1a). Delay tS is the delay

from an INX rising edge to the VOUTX settled output voltage

corresponding to the previous period’s duty cycle. Delay

tS is composed of the computational cycle delay (t4) and

the actual settling of the output DAC. The PWM-to-binary,

internal computational cycle begins immediately following

the INX rising edge. The computational cycle is completed

after delay t4 and the DAC output VOUTX is updated. The

DAC output typically settles to 12-bit accuracy within 8µs

from the INX rising edge.

PWM Input Idle Mode Selection

When no PWM input rising edge is received for more than

the idle mode timeout delay t3 (nominal delay is 60ms),

the DAC output enters an idle mode state which can be

configured by connecting IDLSEL to GND or VCC accord-

ing to Table 1 below. Note that these pins also control the

initial state of the DACs after power-on reset.

Transparent Operation

For applications in which the PWM input duty cycle may

be 0% or 100%, connect IDLSEL to GND to select trans-

parent operation, in which case an idle low input sets the

DAC to zero-scale or an idle high input sets the DAC to

full-scale. Figure 1c illustrates the timing for transparent

operation. Any pair of PWM input rising edges separated

by less than the idle mode timeout delay t3 (50ms mini-

mum) will cause the DAC code to be updated following

the second rising edge. Note that an idle high input state

may be followed by an idle low input state.

Sample/Hold Operation

The LTC2645 has the capability to sample the pulse-

width/period and hold the corresponding voltage level

indefinitely. Unlike analog filter implementations which

require the PWM input to run continuously, the LTC2645

may operate with a discontinuous PWM input. Connect

IDLSEL to VCC to select sample/hold operation, in which a

single pair of rising edges is sufficient to update the DAC,

and the DAC code retains its previous value when the PWM

input idles high. Figure 1b illustrates correct timing for
