General Description
The MAX5878 is an advanced 16-bit, 250Msps, dual
digital-to-analog converter (DAC). This DAC meets the
demanding performance requirements of signal synthesis
applications found in wireless base stations and other
communications applications. Operating from +3.3V and
+1.8V supplies, this dual DAC offers exceptional dynamic
performance such as 76dBc spurious-free dynamic range
(SFDR) at fOUT = 16MHz and supports update rates of
250Msps, with a power dissipation of only 296mW.
The MAX5878 utilizes a current-steering architecture
that supports a 2mA to 20mA full-scale output current
range, and allows a 0.1VP-P to 1VP-P differential output
voltage swing. The device features an integrated +1.2V
bandgap reference and control amplifier to ensure
high-accuracy and low-noise performance. A separate
reference input (REFIO) allows for the use of an exter-
nal reference source for optimum flexibility and
improved gain accuracy.
The clock inputs of the MAX5878 accept both LVDS
and LVPECL-compatible voltage levels. The device fea-
tures an interleaved data input that allows a single
LVDS bus to support both DACs. The MAX5878 is avail-
able in a 68-pin QFN package with an exposed paddle
(EP) and is specified for the extended temperature
range (-40°C to +85°C).
Refer to the MAX5876 and MAX5877 data sheets for
pin-compatible 12-bit and 14-bit versions of the
MAX5878, respectively. Refer to the MAX5875 data
sheet for a CMOS-compatible version of the MAX5878.

Figure 1. MAX5878 High-Performance, 16-Bit, Dual Current-Steering DAC
Detailed Description
Architecture
The MAX5878 high-performance, 16-bit, dual current-
steering DAC (Figure 1) operates with DAC update rates
up to 250Msps. The converter consists of input registers
and a demultiplexer for single-port operation, followed by
a current-steering array. During operation, the input data
registers demultiplex the single-port data bus. The cur-
rent-steering array generates differential full-scale cur-
rents in the 2mA to 20mA range. An internal
current-switching network, in combination with external
50Ωtermination resistors, converts the differential output
currents into dual differential output voltages with a 0.1V
to 1V peak-to-peak output voltage range. An integrated
+1.2V bandgap reference, control amplifier, and user-
selectable external resistor determine the data convert-
er’s full-scale output range.
Reference Architecture and Operation
The MAX5878 supports operation with the internal
+1.2V bandgap reference or an external reference volt-
age source. REFIO serves as the input for an external,
low-impedance reference source. REFIO also serves as
a reference output when the DAC operates in internal
reference mode. For stable operation with the internal
reference, decouple REFIO to GND with a 1µF capaci-
tor. Due to its limited output drive capability, buffer
REFIO with an external amplifier when driving large
external loads.

Dual DAC with LVDS Inputs
12 ______________________________________________________________________________________
The MAX5878’s reference circuit (Figure 2) employs a
control amplifier to regulate the full-scale current
IOUTFS for the differential current outputs of the DAC.
Calculate the full-scale output current as follows:
where IOUTFS is the full-scale output current of the
DAC. RSET (located between FSADJ and DACREF)
determines the amplifier’s full-scale output current for
the DAC. See Table 1 for a matrix of different IOUTFS
and RSET selections.
Analog Outputs (OUTIP, OUTIN, OUTQP,
OUTQN)
Each MAX5878 DAC outputs two complementary cur-
rents (OUTIP/N, OUTQP/N) that operate in a single-
ended or differential configuration. A load resistor
converts these two output currents into complementary
single-ended output voltages. A transformer or a differ-
ential amplifier configuration converts the differential
voltage existing between OUTIP (OUTQP) and OUTIN
(OUTQN) to a single-ended voltage. If not using a
transformer, the recommended termination from the
output is a 25Ωtermination resistor to ground and a
50Ωresistor between the outputs.
To generate a single-ended output, select OUTIP (or
OUTQP) as the output and connect OUTIN (or OUTQN)
to GND. SFDR degrades with single-ended operation
or increased output swing. Figure 3 displays a simpli-
fied diagram of the internal output structure of the
MAX5878.
Clock Inputs (CLKP, CLKN)
The MAX5878 features flexible differential clock inputs
(CLKP, CLKN) operating from a separate supply
(AVCLK) to achieve optimum jitter performance. Drive
the differential clock inputs from a single-ended or a
differential clock source. For single-ended operation,
drive CLKP with a logic source and bypass CLKN to
GND with a 0.1µF capacitor.
CLKP and CLKN are internally biased to AVCLK / 2. This
facilitates the AC-coupling of clock sources directly to
the device without external resistors to define the DC
level. The dynamic input resistance from CLKP and
CLKN to ground is 5kΩ.

Data Timing Relationship
Figure 4 displays the timing relationship between digital
LVDS data, clock, and output signals. The MAX5878
features a 2.0ns hold, a -1.2ns setup, and a 1.1ns prop-
agation delay time. A nine (eight)-clock-cycle latency
exists between CLKP/CLKN and OUTIP/OUTIN
(OUTQP/OUTQN).
LVDS-Compatible Digital Inputs
(B15P/B15N–B0P/B0N, XORP, XORN,
SELIQP, SELIQN)
The MAX5878 latches B15P/N–B0P/N, XORP/N, and
SELIQP/N data on the rising edge of the clock. A logic-
high signal on SELIQP and a logic-low signal on
SELIQN directs data onto the I-DAC inputs. A logic-low
signal on SELIQP and a logic-high signal on SELIQN
directs data onto the Q-DAC inputs.
The MAX5878 features LVDS receivers on the bus input
interface with internal 110Ωtermination resistors. See
Figure 5. XORP and XORN are not internally terminated.
These LVDS inputs (B15P/N–B0P/N) allow for a low differ-
ential voltage swing with low constant power consump-
tion. A 1.25V common-mode level and 250mV differential
input swing can be applied to the B15P/N–B0P/N,
XORP/N, and SELIQP/N inputs.
The MAX5878 includes LVDS-compatible exclusive-OR
inputs (XORP, XORN). Input data (all bits) is compared
with the bits applied to XORP and XORN through exclu-
sive-OR gates. Setting XORP high and XORN low inverts
the input data. Setting XORP low and XORN high leaves
the input data noninverted. By applying a previously
encoded pseudo-random bit stream to the data input
and applying decoding to XORP/XORN, the digital input
data can be decorrelated from the DAC output, allowing
for the troubleshooting of possible spurious or harmonic
distortion degradation due to digital feedthrough on the
printed circuit board (PCB). If XOR functionality is not
required, connect XORP to GND and XORN to DVDD1.8.

CMOS-Compatible Digital Inputs
Input Data Format Select (TORB)
The TORB input selects between two’s-complement or
offset binary digital input data. Set TORB to a CMOS-
logic-high level to indicate a two’s-complement input for-
mat. Set TORB to a CMOS-logic-low level to indicate a
binary input format.
Power-Down Operation (PD)
The MAX5878 also features an active-high power-down
mode that reduces the DAC’s digital current consump-
tion from 36.2mA to less than 5µA and the analog cur-
rent consumption from 84mA to less than 2µA. Set PD
high to power down the MAX5878. Set PD low for nor-
mal operation.
When powered down, the MAX5878 reduces the overall
power consumption to less than 16µW. The MAX5878
requires 10ms to wake up from power-down and enter
a fully operational state. The PD integrated pulldown
resistor activates the MAX5878 if PD is left floating.
Applications Information
CLK Interface
The MAX5878 features a flexible differential clock input
(CLKP, CLKN) with a separate supply (AVCLK) to
achieve optimum jitter performance. Use an ultra-low
jitter clock to achieve the required noise density. Clock
jitter must be less than 0.5psRMS for meeting the speci-
fied noise density. For that reason, the CLKP/CLKN
input source must be designed carefully. The differen-
tial clock (CLKN and CLKP) input can be driven from a
single-ended or a differential clock source. Differential
clock drive is required to achieve the best dynamic
performance from the DAC. For single-ended opera-
tion, drive CLKP with a low noise source and bypass
CLKN to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor.
Figure 6 shows a convenient and quick way to apply a
differential signal created from a single-ended source
(e.g., HP 8662A signal generator) and a wideband trans-
former. Alternatively, these inputs can be driven from a
CMOS-compatible clock source; however, it is recom-
mended to use sinewave or AC-coupled differential
ECL/PECL or LVDS drive for best dynamic performance.

Differential-to-Single-Ended Conversion
Using a Wideband RF Transformer
Use a pair of transformers (Figure 7) or a differential
amplifier configuration to convert the differential voltage
existing between OUTIP/OUTQP and OUTIN/OUTQN to
a single-ended voltage. Optimize the dynamic perfor-
mance by using a differential transformer-coupled out-
put and limit the output power to < 0dBm full scale. Pay
close attention to the transformer core saturation char-
acteristics when selecting a transformer for the
MAX5878. Transformer core saturation can introduce
strong 2nd-order harmonic distortion especially at low
output frequencies and high signal amplitudes. For best
results, center tap the transformer to ground. When not
using a transformer, terminate each DAC output to
ground with a 25Ωresistor. Additionally, place a 50Ω
resistor between the outputs (Figure 8).
For a single-ended unipolar output, select OUTIP
(OUTQP) as the output and ground OUTIN (OUTQN) to
GND. Driving the MAX5878 single-ended is not recom-
mended since additional noise and distortion will
be added.
The distortion performance of the DAC depends on the
load impedance. The MAX5878 is optimized for 50Ω
differential double termination. It can be used with a
transformer output as shown in Figure 7 or just one 25Ω
resistor from each output to ground and one 50Ωresis-
tor between the outputs (Figure 8). This produces a full-
scale output power of up to -2dBm, depending on the
output current setting. Higher termination impedance
can be used at the cost of degraded distortion perfor-
mance and increased output noise voltage.
Grounding, Bypassing, and Power-
Supply Considerations
Grounding and power-supply decoupling can strongly
influence the MAX5878 performance. Unwanted digital
crosstalk couples through the input, reference, power
supply, and ground connections, and affects dynamic
performance. High-speed, high-frequency applications
require closely followed proper grounding and power-
supply decoupling. These techniques reduce EMI and
internal crosstalk that can significantly affect the
MAX5878 dynamic performance.
Use a multilayer PCB with separate ground and power-
supply planes. Run high-speed signals on lines directly
above the ground plane. Keep digital signals as far
away from sensitive analog inputs and outputs, refer-
ence input sense lines, common-mode input, and clock
inputs as practical. Use a symmetric design of clock
input and the analog output lines to minimize 2nd-order
harmonic distortion components, thus optimizing the
DAC’s dynamic performance. Keep digital signal paths
short and run lengths matched to avoid propagation
delay and data skew mismatches.
The MAX5878 requires five separate power-supply
inputs for analog (AVDD1.8 and AVDD3.3), digital
(DVDD1.8 and DVDD3.3), and clock (AVCLK) circuitry. All
power-supply pins must be connected to their proper
supply. Decouple each AVDD, DVDD,and AVCLK input
pin with a separate 0.1µF capacitor as close to the
device as possible with the shortest possible connec-
tion to the ground plane (Figure 9). Minimize the analog
and digital load capacitances for optimized operation.
Decouple all three power-supply voltages at the point
they enter the PCB with tantalum or electrolytic capaci-
tors. Ferrite beads with additional decoupling capacitors
forming a pi-network could also improve performance.

The analog and digital power-supply inputs AVDD3.3,
AVCLK, and DVDD3.3 allow a +3.135V to +3.465V sup-
ply voltage range. The analog and digital power-supply
inputs AVDD1.8 and DVDD1.8 allow a +1.71V to +1.89V
supply voltage range.
The MAX5878 is packaged in a 68-pin QFN-EP pack-
age, providing greater design flexibility, increased ther-
mal efficiency, and optimized DAC AC performance.
The EP enables the use of necessary grounding tech-
niques to ensure highest performance operation.
Thermal efficiency is not the key factor, since the
MAX5878 features low-power operation. The exposed
pad ensures a solid ground connection between the
DAC and the PCB’s ground layer.
The data converter die attaches to an EP lead frame with
the back of this frame exposed at the package bottom
surface, facing the PCB side of the package. This allows
for a solid attachment of the package to the PCB with
standard infrared reflow (IR) soldering techniques. A spe-
cially created land pattern on the PCB, matching the size
of the EP (6mm x 6mm), ensures the proper attachment
and grounding of the DAC. Designing vias into the land
area and implementing large ground planes in the PCB
design allow for the highest performance operation of the
DAC. Use an array of at least 4 x 4 vias (≤0.3mm diame-
ter per via hole and 1.2mm pitch between via holes) for
this 68-pin QFN-EP package. Connect the MAX5878
exposed paddle to GND. Vias connect the land pattern
to internal or external copper planes. Use as many vias
as possible to the ground plane to minimize inductance.
Static Performance Parameter Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Integral nonlinearity is the deviation of the values on an
actual transfer function from either a best straight-line fit
(closest approximation to the actual transfer curve) or a
line drawn between the end points of the transfer func-
tion, once offset and gain errors have been nullified.
For a DAC, the deviations are measured at every indi-
vidual step.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between an
actual step height and the ideal value of 1 LSB. A DNL
error specification of less than 1 LSB guarantees a
monotonic transfer function.
Offset Error
The offset error is the difference between the ideal and
the actual offset current. For a DAC, the offset point is
the average value at the output for the two midscale
digital input codes with respect to the full scale of the
DAC. This error affects all codes by the same amount.
Gain Error
A gain error is the difference between the ideal and the
actual full-scale output voltage on the transfer curve,
after nullifying the offset error. This error alters the slope
of the transfer function and corresponds to the same
percentage error in each step.

Dynamic Performance Parameter Definitions
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
For a waveform perfectly reconstructed from digital sam-
ples, the theoretical maximum SNR is the ratio of the full-
scale analog output (RMS value) to the RMS quantization
error (residual error). The ideal, theoretical minimum can
be derived from the DAC’s resolution (N bits):
SNRdB = 6.02dB x N + 1.76dB
However, noise sources such as thermal noise, reference
noise, clock jitter, etc., affect the ideal reading; therefore,
SNR is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS signal to
the RMS noise, which includes all spectral components
minus the fundamental, the first four harmonics, and the
DC offset.
Noise Spectral Density
The DAC output noise floor is the sum of the quantiza-
tion noise and the output amplifier noise (thermal and
shot noise). Noise spectral density is the noise power in
1Hz bandwidth, specified in dBFS/Hz.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the ratio of RMS amplitude of the carrier fre-
quency (maximum signal components) to the RMS
value of their next-largest distortion component. SFDR
is usually measured in dBc and with respect to the car-
rier frequency amplitude or in dBFS with respect to the
DAC’s full-scale range. Depending on its test condition,
SFDR is observed within a predefined window or to
Nyquist.
Two-/Four-Tone Intermodulation Distortion (IMD)
The two-tone IMD is the ratio expressed in dBc (or dBFS)
of the worst 3rd-order (or higher) IMD product(s) to either
output tone.
Adjacent Channel Leakage Power Ratio (ACLR)
Commonly used in combination with wideband code-
division multiple-access (W-CDMA), ACLR reflects the
leakage power ratio in dB between the measured
power within a channel relative to its adjacent channel.
ACLR provides a quantifiable method of determining
out-of-band spectral energy and its influence on an
adjacent channel when a bandwidth-limited RF signal
passes through a nonlinear device.
Settling Time
The settling time is the amount of time required from the
start of a transition until the DAC output settles its new
output value to within the converter’s specified accuracy.
Glitch Impulse
A glitch is generated when a DAC switches between
two codes. The largest glitch is usually generated
around the midscale transition, when the input pattern
transitions from 011...111 to 100...000. The glitch
impulse is found by integrating the voltage of the glitch
at the midscale transition over time. The glitch impulse
is usually specified in pV•s.
