HARDWARE FUNCTIONS
RESET FUNCTION
Bringing the RESET line low resets the contents of all internal
registers to their power-on reset state. Reset is a negative edge-
sensitive input. The default corresponds to m at full-scale and
to c at zero scale. The contents of the DAC registers are cleared,
setting VOUT0 to VOUT39 to 0 V. This sequence takes 270 μs.
The falling edge of RESET initiates the reset process; BUSY goes
low for the duration, returning high when RESET is complete.
While BUSY is low, all interfaces are disabled and all LDAC
pulses are ignored. When BUSY returns high, the part resumes
normal operation and the status of the RESET pin is ignored
until the next falling edge is detected.
ASYNCHRONOUS CLEAR FUNCTION
Bringing the CLR line low clears the contents of the DAC
registers to the data contained in the user configurable CLR
register and sets VOUT0 to VOUT39 accordingly. This func-
tion can be used in system calibration to load zero-scale and
full-scale to all channels. The execution time for a CLR is 35 μs.
BUSY AND LDAC FUNCTIONS
BUSY is a digital CMOS output that indicates the status of the
AD5381. The value of x2, the internal data loaded to the DAC
data register, is calculated each time the user writes new data to
the corresponding x1, c, or m registers. During the calculation
of x2, the BUSY output goes low. While BUSY is low, the user
can continue writing new data to the x1, m, or c registers, but
no DAC output updates can take place. The DAC outputs are
updated by taking the LDAC input low. If LDAC goes low while
BUSY is active, the LDAC event is stored and the DAC outputs
update immediately after BUSY goes high. The user may hold
the LDAC input permanently low, in which case the DAC
outputs update immediately after BUSY goes high. BUSY
also goes low during power-on reset and when a falling edge is
detected on the RESET pin. During this time, all interfaces are
disabled and any events on LDAC are ignored.
The AD5381 contains an extra feature whereby a DAC register
is not updated unless its x2 register has been written to since
the last time LDAC was brought low. Normally, when LDAC
is brought low, the DAC registers are filled with the contents
of the x2 registers. However, the AD5381 will only update the
DAC register if the x2 data has changed, thereby removing
unnecessary digital crosstalk.

FIFO OPERATION IN PARALLEL MODE
The AD5381 contains a FIFO to optimize operation when
operating in parallel interface mode. The FIFO Enable (level
sensitive, active high) is used to enable the internal FIFO. When
connected to DVDD, the internal FIFO is enabled, allowing the
user to write to the device at full speed. FIFO is only available in
parallel interface mode. The status of the FIFO EN pin is sam-
pled on power-up, and after a CLR or RESET , to determine if
the FIFO is enabled. In either serial or I
FIFO EN should be tied low. Up to 128 successive instructions
can be written to the FIFO at maximum speed in parallel mode.
When the FIFO is full, any further writes to the device are
ignored. Figure 29 shows a comparison between FIFO mode
and non-FIFO mode in terms of channel update time. Figure 29
also outlines digital loading time.
POWER-ON RESET
The AD5381 contains a power-on reset generator and state
machine. The power-on reset resets all registers to a predefined
state and configures the analog outputs as high impedance. The
BUSY pin goes low during the power-on reset sequencing, pre-
venting data writes to the device.
POWER-DOWN
The AD5381 contains a global power-down feature that puts all
channels into a low power mode and reduces the analog power
consumption to 2 μA max and digital power consumption to
20 μA max. In power-down mode, the output amplifier can be
configured as a high impedance output or can provide a 100 kΩ
load to ground. The contents of all internal registers are retained
in power-down mode. When exiting power-down, the settling
time of the amplifier will elapse before the outputs settle to their
correct values.
