# DAC8164IAPW

**Texas Instruments** · Digital To Analog Converters (DAC) · TSSOP-16

DAC8164IAPW from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-16. 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 | VOUTA | output | Analog output voltage from DAC A. |
| 2 | VOUTB | output | Analog output voltage from DAC B. |
| 3 | VREFH/VREFOUT | bidirectional | Positive reference input / reference output, 2.5V if internal reference is used. |
| 4 | AVDD | power_in | Power-supply input, 2.7V to 5.5V. |
| 5 | VREFL | input | Negative reference input. |
| 6 | GND | power_in | Ground reference point for all circuitry on the part. |
| 7 | VOUTC | output | Analog output voltage from DAC C. |
| 8 | VOUTD | output | Analog output voltage from DAC D. |
| 9 | SYNC | input | Level-triggered active-low frame synchronization input; the DAC output updates following the 24th clock, and a SYNC rising edge before the 24th clock edge aborts the write sequence. Schmitt-Trigger logic input. |
| 10 | SCLK | input | Serial clock input with data transfer rates up to 50MHz. Schmitt-Trigger logic input. |
| 11 | DIN | input | Serial data input clocked into the 24-bit input shift register on each falling edge of SCLK. Schmitt-Trigger logic input. |
| 12 | IOVDD | power_in | Digital input-output power supply, 1.8V to 5.5V. |
| 13 | A0 | input | Address 0 input that sets the device address, see Table 5. |
| 14 | A1 | input | Address 1 input that sets the device address, see Table 5. |
| 15 | ENABLE | input | Active-low enable pin that connects the SPI interface to the serial port. |
| 16 | LDAC | input | Load DACs input; rising edge triggered, loads all DAC registers. |
