PRODUCTION DATA
The AFEx8101 feature a 16‑bit (AFE88101) or 14-bit (AFE78101) string DAC followed by an output voltage buffer. The DAC can be configured to support two low PVDD (0.15 V to 1.25 V and 0.2 V to 1 V), or high PVDD (0.3 V to 2.5 V and 0.4 V to 2 V) output ranges of operation depending on the PVDD supply voltage and the DAC_CFG.RANGE bit in the device configuration register. Using a voltage-to-current converter stage, these output voltages can be used to control a 4 mA to 20 mA loop. The narrow range corresponds to a 4-mA to 20-mA range. The full range allows for currents under and over the 4-mA to 20-mA range.
The devices continuously monitor the PVDD supply to provide proper operation based on the DAC range setting. Table 7-1 shows the valid supply ranges and corresponding VOUT DAC voltage ranges for the AFEx8101.
DAC CONFIGURATION | SUPPLY | DAC_CFG.RANGE | NAME | VOUT DAC VOLTAGE RANGE | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
PVDD | VDD | ||||
Invalid configuration | 0 V ≤ PVDD < 1.71 V | 0 V ≤ VDD < 1.71 V | NA | Alarm condition(1) | 0.15 V or 1.25 V(2) |
Low PVDD DAC range | 1.71 V ≤ PVDD ≤ 1.89 V | 1.71 V ≤ VDD ≤ 1.89 V | 0 | Full range | 0.15 V to 1.25 V |
1 | Narrow range | 0.2 V to 1 V | |||
Invalid configuration | 1.89 V < PVDD < 2.7 V | VDD > 1.89 V | NA | Alarm condition(1) | 0.15 V or 1.25 V(2) |
High PVDD DAC range | 2.7 V ≤ PVDD ≤ 5.5 V | VDD is internally generated | 0 | Full range | 0.3 V to 2.5 V |
1 | Narrow range | 0.4 V to 2 V | |||
Invalid configuration | PVDD > 5.5 V | VDD > 1.89 V | NA | Alarm condition(1) | 0.3 V or 2.5 V(2) |
If PVDD or VDD fall outside the specified threshold values associated with the supply configuration during operation, an alarm is generated and the DAC output is set according to the ALARM_ACTION setting.
