DESCRIPTION

The DAC8802 is a dual, 14-bit, current-output

digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed to

operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply.

The applied external reference input voltage VREF

determines the full-scale output current. An internal

feedback resistor (RFB) provides temperature

tracking for the full-scale output when combined with

an external I-to-V precision amplifier.

A doubled-buffered, serial data interface offers

high-speed, 3-wire, SPI and microcontroller

compatible inputs using serial data in (SDI), clock

(CLK), and a chip-select (CS). A common

level-sensitive load DAC strobe (LDAC) input allows

simultaneous update of all DAC outputs from

previously loaded input registers. Additionally, an

internal power-on reset forces the output voltage to

zero at system turn-on. An MSB pin allows system

reset assertion (RS) to force all registers to zero

code when MSB = 0, or to half-scale code when

MSB = 1.

The DAC8802 is available in an TSSOP-16 package.
