# DAC8168IAPWR

**Texas Instruments** · Digital To Analog Converters (DAC) · TSSOP-14

DAC8168IAPWR from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-14. 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 | SYNC | input | Level-triggered control input (active low) for frame synchronization; Schmitt-trigger logic input. |
| 2 | AVDD | power_in | Power-supply input, 2.7V to 5.5V. |
| 3 | VOUTA | output | Analog output voltage from DAC A with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 4 | VOUTC | output | Analog output voltage from DAC C with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 5 | VOUTE | output | Analog output voltage from DAC E with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 6 | VOUTG | output | Analog output voltage from DAC G with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 7 | VREFIN/VREFOUT | passive | Positive reference input or reference output, 2.5V if internal reference used; minimum 100nF capacitor recommended to GND for noise filtering. |
| 8 | VOUTH | output | Analog output voltage from DAC H with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 9 | VOUTF | output | Analog output voltage from DAC F with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 10 | VOUTD | output | Analog output voltage from DAC D with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 11 | VOUTB | output | Analog output voltage from DAC B with 0V to AVDD rail-to-rail range. |
| 12 | GND | power_in | Ground reference point for all circuitry on the device. |
| 13 | DIN | input | Serial data input clocked into 32-bit shift register on each falling edge of serial clock input; Schmitt-trigger logic input. |
| 14 | SCLK | input | Serial clock input with data transfer rates up to 50MHz; Schmitt-trigger logic input. |
