3 Description

The DAC7750 and DAC8750 (DACx750) are lowcost,

precision, fully-integrated, 12-bit and 16-bit

digital-to-analog converters (DACs) designed to

meet the requirements of industrial process-control

applications. These devices can be programmed as

a current output with ranges of 4 mA to 20 mA, 0 mA

to 20 mA, or 0 mA to 24 mA. The DACx750 include

reliability features such as CRC error checking on

the SPI frame, a watchdog timer, an open circuit,

compliance voltage, and thermal alarm. In addition,

the output current can be monitored by accessing an

internal precision resistor.

These devices include a power-on-reset function

designed to power up the device in a known state

(IOUT is disabled and in a Hi-Z state). The CLR pin

sets the current output to the low end of the range

if the output is enabled. Program the zero and gain

registers to digitally calibrate the device in the end

system. The output slew rate is also programmable by

register. These devices can superimpose an external

HART® signal on the current output, and operate with

a 10-V to 36-V supply.
