GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453
1
are CMOS 8-/10-/
12-/14-bit current output digital-to-analog converters, respectively.
These devices operate from a 2.5 V to 5.5 V power supply, making
them suited to several applications, including battery-powered
applications.
As a result of manufacture on a CMOS submicron process,
these DACs offer excellent 4-quadrant multiplication
characteristics of up to 12 MHz.
These DACs utilize a double-buffered, 3-wire serial interface
that is compatible with SPI®, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and most
DSP interface standards. Upon power-up, the internal shift
register and latches are filled with 0s, and the DAC output is at
zero scale.
The applied external reference input voltage (V
REF
) determines
the full-scale output current. These parts can handle ±10 V
inputs on the reference, despite operating from a single-supply
power supply of 2.5 V to 5.5 V. An integrated feedback resistor
(R
FB
) provides temperature tracking and full-scale voltage
output when combined with an external current-to-voltage
precision amplifier.
The AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453 DACs are available in
small 8-lead TSOT, and the AD5452/AD5453 are also available
in MSOP packages.
