1
29
IODVDD
Digital Interface Supply Pin. Digital thresholds are referenced to the voltage applied to this pin. A
voltage from 1.71 V to 5.5 V can be applied to this pin.
2
30
SDO
Serial Data Output. Used to clock data from the input shift register. Data is clocked out on the
rising edge of SCLK and is valid on the falling edge of SCLK.
3
31
SCLK
Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of SCLK. This
input operates at clock speeds up to 30 MHz.
4
32
SYNC
Frame Synchronization Input, Active Low. This is the frame synchronization signal for the serial
interface. When SYNC is low, data is transferred on the falling edge of SCLK. The input shift
register data is latched on the rising edge of SYNC.
5
1
SDIN
Serial Data Input. Data must be valid on the falling edge of SCLK.
6
2
LDAC
Load DAC Input, Active Low. This pin is used to update the DAC register and, consequently, the
output current. If LDAC is tied permanently low, the DAC register is updated on the rising edge
of SYNC. If LDAC is held high during the write cycle, the input register is updated, but the output
update is delayed until the falling edge of LDAC. The LDAC pin should not be left unconnected.
7
3
FAULT
Fault Alert Output Pin, Active High. This pin is asserted high when a fault is detected. Detectable
faults are loss of SPI interface control, communication error (PEC), loop current out of range,
insufficient loop voltage, and overtemperature. For more information, see t
he Fault Alertssection.
8
5
DVDD
3.3 V Digital Power Supply Output. This pin should be decoupled to COM with 100 nF and 4.7 F
capacitors.
9
6
ALARM_
CURRENT_
DIRECTION
Alarm Current Direction Select. This pin is used to select whether the alarm current is upscale
(22.8 mA/24 mA) or downscale (3.2 mA). Connecting this pin to DVDD selects an upscale alarm
current (22.8 mA/24 mA); connecting this pin to COM selects a downscale alarm current (3.2 mA).
10
7
RINT/REXT
Current Setting Resistor Select. When this pin is connected to DVDD, the internal current setting
resistor is selected. When this pin is connected to COM, the external current setting resistor is
selected. An external resistor can be connected between the REXT1 and REXT2 pins.
