AD5761R/AD5721R
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TYPICAL OPERATING CIRCUIT
Figure 76 shows the typical operating circuit for the AD5761R/
AD5721R. The only external components needed for this
precision 16-/12-bit DAC are decoupling capacitors on the
supply pins and supply voltage. Because the AD5761R/AD5721R
incorporate a voltage reference and reference buffers, they
eliminate the need for an external bipolar reference and
associated buffers, resulting in overall savings in both cost and
board space.
In Figure 76, VDD is connected to 15 V and VSS is connected to
−15 V, but VDD and VSS can operate with supplies from 4.75 V to
30 V and from −16.5 V to 0 V, respectively.

POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS
The AD5761R/AD5721R must be powered by the following
three supplies to provide any of the eight output voltage ranges
available on the DAC: VDD = 21 V, VSS = −11 V, and DVCC = 5 V.
For applications requiring optimal high power efficiency and
low noise performance, it is recommended to use the ADP5070
switching regulator to convert the 5 V input rail into two
intermediate rails (+23 V and −13 V). These intermediate rails
are then postregulated by very low noise, low dropout (LDO)
regulators (ADP7142 and ADP7182). Figure 77 shows the
recommended method.

EVALUATION BOARD
An evaluation board is available for the AD5761R to aid
designers in evaluating the high performance of the device
with minimum effort. The AD5761R evaluation kit includes a
populated and tested AD5761R printed circuit board (PCB).
The evaluation board interfaces to the USB port of a PC. Software
is available with the evaluation board to allow the user to easily
program the AD5761R. The EVAL-AD5761RSDZ user guide
provides full details on the operation of the evaluation board.
