Typical Applications
AD5372BSTZ is suitable for 6 applications: Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), Optical Network Control, Instrumentation, Industrial Process Control, Medical Equipment, Communication Systems.
Automatic Test Equipment (ATE)
The AD5372BSTZ provides 32 independent 16-bit voltage outputs, ideal for ATE systems requiring multiple precise stimulus signals. Its fast settling time of 16 Β΅s enables high-throughput testing, while the serial interface simplifies connection to FPGA-based controllers. The independent gain and offset trim per channel allows calibration of each output to meet tight system accuracy requirements.
Recommended
Optical Network Control
In optical networking, the AD5372BSTZ can control variable optical attenuators (VOAs) and tunable lasers. Its 32 channels allow monitoring and control of multiple optical channels simultaneously. The low glitch energy and monotonic output ensure stable analog control signals, while the wide output span (4ΓVREF) provides sufficient voltage range for various actuator interfaces.
Recommended
Instrumentation
The AD5372BSTZ is well-suited for precision instrumentation such as programmable power supplies and waveform generators. Its 16-bit resolution and 32 channels enable generation of multiple accurate analog signals. The serial interface supports daisy-chaining, allowing expansion to more channels without additional microcontroller pins. The device's power-on reset ensures known output states at startup.
Recommended
Industrial Process Control
In industrial process control, the AD5372BSTZ can drive actuators, valves, and setpoints across 32 channels. Its wide supply voltage range (2.5V to 5.5V) and buffered outputs simplify interface to external drivers. The independent gain and offset trim allows calibration of each channel to match sensor characteristics, improving overall system accuracy.
Recommended
Medical Equipment
The AD5372BSTZ is used in medical equipment such as patient monitoring systems and diagnostic devices, where multiple precise analog outputs are required. Its 16-bit resolution ensures fine control of parameters like gain and offset in signal chains. The small LQFP package and serial interface help reduce board space in compact medical devices.
Recommended
Communication Systems
In communication systems, the AD5372BSTZ can be used for bias control of RF amplifiers and tunable filters. Its 32 channels allow independent control of multiple bias points. The low noise and monotonic output ensure stable operation, while the serial interface is compatible with common DSP and FPGA controllers.

Key Differentiators
- 32 independent 16-bit DAC channels in a single package (vs AD5370BSTZ)
- Pin-compatible with AD5373BSTZ (14-bit) (vs AD5373BSTZ)
- LQFP package with exposed pad for better thermal performance (vs AD5372BCPZ)
Design Notes
Decouple AVDD and DVDD with 10 Β΅F and 0.1 Β΅F capacitors placed close to the pins. Use separate analog and digital ground planes to minimize noise coupling. The reference input should be decoupled with a 1 Β΅F capacitor to REFIN and GND.
For optimal performance, place the AD5372BSTZ on a PCB with a solid ground plane. Keep the serial interface traces short and avoid routing them near high-speed digital lines. The LQFP package has exposed pads; ensure proper soldering for thermal and mechanical reliability.
Ensure the SYNC pin is held low during data transfer and that SCLK frequency does not exceed 50 MHz. The CLR pin can be used to reset outputs to zero-scale or midscale; tie it high if not used. Avoid floating the RESET pin; connect it to DVDD through a pull-up resistor.
Compliance Information
RoHS compliant per Analog Devices product page. Not AEC-Q100 qualified.
