DAC8555,pdf(16-Bit, Quad Chann

The DAC8555 is a 16-bit, quad channel, voltage output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) offering low-power operation and a flexible serial host interface. It offers monotonicity, good linearity, and exceptionally low glitch. Each on-chip precision output amplifier allows rail-to-rail output swing to be achieved over the supply range of 2.7V to 5.5V. The device supports a standard 3-wire serial interface capable of operating with input data clock frequencies up to 50MHz for IOV_DD = 5V.

The DAC8555 requires an external reference voltage to set the output range of each DAC channel. Also incorporated into the device is a power-on reset circuit, which can be programmed to ensure that the DAC outputs power up at zero-scale or midscale and remain there until a valid write takes place.
