GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The MP7226 contains four 8-bit voltage-output Digital-to-Analog Converters, with BiCMOS output buffer amplifiers and interface logic on a monolithic chip. Separate on-chip latches are provided for each of the four D/A converters. The control logic is speed compatible with most 8-bit microprocessors. All digital inputs are TTL/CMOS(5V) compatible.
