The DAC-HP Series are high-resolution hybrid digital-to-analog converters with voltage outputs. The Series has 16-bit binary resolution with ±0.003% integral nonlinearity . These units are self-contained, including a low-tempco Zener reference circuit and an output amplifier, in a miniature 24-pin DDIP package.The DAC-HP Series offers both unipolar and bipolar modes with outputs of 0 to +10V and ±5V respectively . Devices with a bipolar output range of ±10V are also available and are
designated with a "-1" suffix after the model designation. Input coding is complementary binary and complementary offset binary.
The DAC-HP design incorporates thin and thick-film hybrid technology . The design also includes an on-board amplifier and a precision Zener reference circuit. This eliminates code dependent ground currents by routing currents from the
positive supply to the internal ground node as determined by the R-2R ladder network. The internal feedback resistors for the on-board amplifier track the ladder network resistors,enhancing temperature stability and performance. The excellent tracking of the resistors results in tempcos for differential nonlinearity , gain and zero of ±2, ±15 and ±5ppm/°C max., respectively.
The DAC-HP Series operates off of ±15V supplies and offers models with temperature performance covering the 0 to +70°C commercial or –55 to +125°C military temperature ranges.High reliability MIL-STD-883 versions are also available.

TECHNICAL NOTES
1.It is recommended that these converters be operated with local supply bypass capacitors of 1μF (tantalum type) at the +15V and –15V supply pins. The capacitors should be connected as close to the pins as possible. In high-frequency noise environments, an additional 0.01μF ceramic capacitor should be used in parallel with each tantalum bypass.
2.When laying out the circuit board for this device, isolate the analog, digital and power grounds as much as possible from each other before joining them at pin 20.
3.If the reference output (pin 24) is used, it must be buffered by an operational amplifier in the noninverting mode. See Figure 2. Current drawn from pin 24 should be limited to ±10μA in order that the temperature coefficient of the reference circuit not be affected. This is sufficient current for the bias current requirements of most popular operational amplifier types.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
For bipolar operation, connect Bipolar Offset (pin 18) to
Summing Junction (pin 21). For unipolar operation, connect Bipolar Offset (pin 18) to Ground (pin 20). In making the following adjustments, refer to the Coding Tables and Connection Diagrams.
1.Zero Adjustment. Set the input digital code to 1111 11111111 1111 and adjust the ZERO ADJ. potentiometer to give 0.00000V output for unipolar operation or –FS output for bipolar operation.
2.Gain Adjustment. Set the input digital code to 0000 00000000 0000 and adjust the GAIN ADJ. potentiometer to give +FS – 1LSB output for either unipolar or bipolar operation.
