Hi
I am FAE in Japanese distributor.
Our customer evaluates LTC2654 with DC1678A-A connecting micro computer.
LTC2654 was wrote by following command step.
1.0x0001FF (write 0x01FF to DAC A input register)
2.0x0101FF (write 0x01FF to DAC B input register)
3.0x0201FF (write 0x01FF to DAC C input register)
4.0x2301FF (write 0x01FF to DAC D input register and update all DAC registers)
A few us after step4, DAC A changes from 0V to 20mV.
65 us after step4, DAC B changes from 0V to 20mV.
85 us after step4, DAC C changes from 0V to 20mV.
60 us after step4, DAC D changes from 0V to 20mV.
Please see left side picture A,B,C and D.
I think settling time is OK but Latency is different between DCA A, B C and D.
Latency means following timing( ADI application note AN-1444).
5.0x000000 (write 0x0000 to DAC A input register)
6.0x010000 (write 0x0000 to DAC B input register)
7.0x020000 (write 0x0000 to DAC C input register)
8.0x230000 (write 0x0000 to DAC D input register and update all DAC registers)
After step8, All DACs change from 20mV to 0V soon .
Please see right side picture A,B,C and D.
I think the Latency difference is abnormal.
LDAC of LTC265C is fixed High level.
Should LDAC be fixed Low level?
