Texas Instruments · Digital-to-analog converter · MSOP-8
Single 16-bit voltage-output DAC driven over SPI, with a built-in 2.5 V reference and output buffer, so it makes a defined full-scale output with no external reference. It holds true 16-bit resolution (monotonic, low error), and a VFB pin brings the output buffer's feedback out for force-sense or gain setting. It runs from a single 2.7 to 5.5 V supply and powers up to a known state. A compact precision source for setpoints, bias, and calibration.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD | power_in | Power supply input, 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Bypass locally to GND. |
| 2 | VREF | bidirectional | Reference voltage input/output. Internal 2.5 V reference is enabled by default and appears on this pin; it may alternatively be driven by an external reference. |
| 3 | VFB | input | Feedback connection for the on-chip output amplifier. For standard voltage-output operation, tie externally to VOUT. |
| 4 | VOUT | output | Analog output voltage from the DAC. Rail-to-rail output amplifier capable of ±20 mA sink/source; output range 0 V to VREF. |
| 5 | SYNC | input | Active-LOW, level-triggered frame synchronization input for the serial interface. Taking SYNC LOW enables the input shift register; the DAC output updates following the 24th SCLK edge. Schmitt-trigger input. |
| 6 | SCLK | input | Serial clock input, Schmitt-trigger logic input. Supports clock rates up to 30 MHz for SPI/QSPI/Microwire/DSP interfaces. |
| 7 | DIN | input | Serial data input. Data is clocked into the 24-bit input shift register on each falling edge of SCLK. Schmitt-trigger logic input. |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground reference point for all circuitry on the device. |
