GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MDD Series is a subsystem module which contains an
input digital register, ultra-high speed current output D/A
converter, deglitcher, output buffer amplifier~ precision refer-
ences, and timing circuitry within a 3"X4"XO.S" case, The out-
put of the device is an ultra-linear analog representation of
the digital input. Requiring only external gain and offset
potentiometers for final calibration, the MDD D/A solves the
.
glitch problem associated with high-speed DI A converters. The
incorporation of an internal register virtually eliminates the
need for input bit time deskewing. While not totally eliminat-
ing the glitch per se, the remnant glitch is very smaIl, and more
importantly, constant (and therefore filterable) over the out-
put range,
The MDD Series is available with 8- or lO-bit resolution and in
two versions. The basic versions contain a unity gain output
buffer and can deliver ZV POpopen circuit (or 1V Pop into a
load) when the MDD output is both source and load termin-
ated. The "A" versions contain a very high speed output gain
amplifier to allow the MDD to deliver 4V pop open circuit (or
ZV POpinto a load) when the device is source and load termin-
ated. Higher output voltages may be obtained-up
to :tlOV by
external feedback resistor selection. However, settling time
degradation must be expected.
TV APPLICATION
The "A" version of the MDD Series deglitched DI A is ideally
suited for color television video reconstruction. Its output can
directly drive the low impedances normaIly associated with
video baseband transmission. Since the output impedance of

the internal operational amplifier is less than H2, the transmis-
sion-line match obtained with the internal source terminating
resistor is almost perfect. Other applications include waveform
generation, automatic test equipment, and fast process con-
trol systems.
Designed primarily for PC board mounting, these D/A's may
also be plugged into pin sockets. The pins are 0,04" diameter,
gold plated, and are on O.Z" centers. For increased reliability,
each module is burned in for 96 hours at +ZSoC befo~e final
test and shipment,

NOTES ON "DEGLITCHING"
An MDD Series D/A converter operating with a full-scale p-p
analog output of 1V will typically have a glitch, or transient,
in its output which is 15mV in amplitude and is 25ns wide,
at the 50% points. These typical values are independent of
whether the D/A converter is an 8-bit unit or a 10-bit unit.
This glitch remains constant, regardless of the transition
points. In other words, it is the same for the transition from
0000000001 to 1000000000 as it is for the transition from
1000000000 to 1000000001 or any other two input words.
A constant glitch is the purpose of the deglitcher circuits.
They are intended to hold the area under the curve at a con-
stant value; they are not intended to get rid of all glitches
per se.
When the area under the transient curve is held constant, the
frequency spectrum of the glitch is a fine line; i.e., a single-
line spectrum at the sample rate frequency, and harmonics of
the sample frequency.
If the glitch is a function of signal dynamics, as it is in the
case of a D/A converter output which is not deglitched, a
multitude of intermodulation products art! formed. Some of
these 1M products appear in the video pass-band as spurious
signals and increased noise level. The deglitcher circuits effec-
tively eliminate these products. When they do, the SIN ratio
approaches that of an ideally-quantized signal, where the rms
noise is
QI.Jli,
when frequencies above Nyquist are filtered
out.
In summary then:
8 The residual glitch for an MDD Series D/A converter is
typically 15m V for a full-scale IV p-p output; this is 1.5%
ofF.S.
8 The glitch width is typically 25ns at the 50% points.
8 The amplitude and width of the glitch are constant, and
independent of:
-the magnitude of change in successive transitions
-number of bits of digital output
-input (update) data rates
D/A converters without deglitching circuits have smaller,
shorter glitches, on the average; but this type of converter has
larger glitches at the major crossings, especially at the mid-
scale transition.

Typical A/D-D/A Back-to-Back
for Video Applications or Testing
The typical video differential phase and gain errors (disre-
garding quantization effects) for the configuration shown are
3° and 3%, respectively, using an encode command frequency
of three times the NTSC color subcarrier (l0.74MHz). For
applications requiring digitization at frequencies of four times
NTSC (14.32MHz) or three times PAL (13.29MHz) the
MATV-0816.A/D
Converter should be substituted. For ap-
at four times PAL (17. 74MHz),
plications requiringdigitization
the MATV-0820 AID Converter should be substituted. Results
are applicable for either NTSC or PAL test signals using the
20 IRE modulated ramp.
Due to the inherently stable characteristics of the output oper-
ational amplifier, the "A" versions are recommended for
driving properly terminated video terminated lines.
