Note: 

The extended temperature grade version of the DAC714 is no longer 
available from the manufacturer.  Acromag has performed operational 
tests of sampled commercial grade components over the extended 
temperature range without failure.  All DAC714s’ used on the -E 
version of the PMC230 have been functionally tested by an 
independent third party laboratory for use in extended temperature 
applications, except for verification of analog output specifications.

 ............…………Bipolar -5 to +5 Volts 

(Jumper selected):                        Bipolar -10 to +10 Volts 
                                                      Unipolar 0 to +10 Volts 

Note (Analog Outputs): 

1.  The actual outputs may fall short of the range endpoints due to 

hardware offset and gain errors.  The software calibration 

corrects for these across the output range, but cannot extend the 
output beyond that achievable with the hardware. 

 
Output Current…………………...-5mA to +5mA (Maximum); this 
                                                     corresponds to a minimum load

DAC Data Format………………..Positive-true binary two’s  
                                                     complement (BTC) input codes. 
DAC Programming...................…Simultaneous; Input registers of  
                                                     multiple DAC's are directly loaded 
                                                     with new data before

Notes (Calibrated Error): 

2.  Offset and gain calibration coefficients stored in the coefficient 

memory must be used to perform software calibration in order to 
achieve the specified accuracy.  Specified accuracy does not 
include quantization error and are with outputs unloaded.  Follow 
the output connection recommendations of Chapter 2, to keep a 
non-ideal grounds from degrading overall system accuracy.   

3.  The maximum uncalibrated error combining the linearity, offset 

and gain errors is 

±

 0.453%.  

     DAC714HL @ 25oC: 

Linearity Error is

Bipolar Offset Error is 

±

 0.2% FSR (i.e. 20V SPAN) max.   

Gain Error is 

±

 0.25% maximum. 

 

Settling Time................................10uS to within 0.003% of FSR for  
                                                     a 20V step change (load of 5K

                                                     100KHz recommended for  
                                                     specified accuracy.

                                                     Unipolar 5 Volts  (See Note 4) 
Board Warm-up Time...................8 minutes minimum 

Note (Analog Output): 

4.  The reset function resets the DAC analog output and the FPGA’s 

internal DAC registers.  Therefore, the DAC output will remain in 
their reset state after simultaneous DAC output updates until the 
DAC registers are overwritten with new data.
