DAC8043U

Texas Instruments · Digital To Analog Converters (DACs) · SOIC-8

DAC8043U from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VREF power_in Reference voltage input to the R-2R ladder (input resistance 7 kΩ to 15 kΩ), which may be driven by AC or DC, positive or negative voltage within ±25V absolute maximum.
2 RFB passive Internal feedback resistor terminal for the external output op amp, rated ±25V to GND absolute maximum.
3 IOUT output DAC current output, with output voltage limited to -0.3V to VDD and output capacitance of 80pF to 110pF depending on code.
4 GND power_in Ground; the output op amp analog common should be connected as near to this pin as possible.
5 LD input Load input; taking it low loads the input register data into the DAC register (minimum pulse width 120 ns).
6 SRI input Serial data input, MSB first, clocked into the input shift register on the rising edge of CLK (40 ns setup, 80 ns hold).
7 CLK input Clock input; serial data is clocked into the input register on the rising edge (minimum high 90 ns, low 120 ns).
8 VDD power_in Positive supply, +5V nominal (4.75V to 5.25V), 7V absolute maximum, decoupled with a 1µF tantalum capacitor close to the device.
