GENERAL DESCRIPTION
buffered voltage output DACs in 10-lead MSOP and 10-lead
LFCSP packages that operate from a single 2.5 V to 5.5 V supply,
consuming 500 μA at 3 V. Their on-chip output amplifiers allow
rail-to-rail output swing to be achieved with a slew rate of 0.7 V/μs.
A 3-wire serial interface is used; it operates at clock rates up to
30 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE,
and DSP interface standards.
The references for the four DACs are derived from one reference
pin. The outputs of all DACs can be updated simultaneously using
the software LDAC function. The parts incorporate a power-on
reset circuit, and ensure that the DAC outputs power up to 0 V
and remains there until a valid write takes place to the device.
The parts contain a power-down feature that reduces the current
consumption of the device to 200 nA @ 5 V (80 nA @ 3 V).
The low power consumption of these parts in normal operation
makes them ideally suited to portable battery-operated equipment.
The power consumption is 3 mW at 5 V, 1.5 mW at 3 V, reducing
to 1 μW in power-down mode.
