DAC8740HRGER

Texas Instruments · Interface - Specialized · VQFN-24-EP(4x4)

DAC8740HRGER from Texas Instruments, in a VQFN-24-EP(4x4). 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 XEN input Crystal oscillator enable; logic low enables external crystal oscillator circuit, logic high disables it requiring external CMOS clock or internal oscillator. No digital input pin should be left floating.
2 CLKO output Clock output; can be configured as clock output when using internal oscillator or external crystal oscillator.
3 CLK_CFG0 input Clock configuration input; used to configure input/output clocking scheme. No digital input pin should be left floating.
4 CLK_CFG1 input Clock configuration input; used to configure input/output clocking scheme. No digital input pin should be left floating.
5 RST input Reset input; logic low places device into power-down mode and resets the device, logic high returns device to normal operation. No digital input pin should be left floating.
6 CD output Carrier detect output; logic high indicates valid carrier is present in HART mode, or indicates jabber inhibitor has triggered in FF/PA mode.
7 UART_IN input UART data input; serial data input for UART interface. No digital input pin should be left floating.
8 UART_RTS bidirectional UART request to send; in HART mode, logic high enables demodulator and disables modulator, logic low enables modulator and disables demodulator; in FF/PA mode, reports transmit FIFO threshold information. No digital input pin should be left floating.
9 DUPLEX input Full-duplex mode enable input; logic high enables full-duplex or internal loop-back test mode. No digital input pin should be left floating.
10 UART_OUT output UART data output; serial data output from UART interface.
11 IOVDD power_in Interface supply voltage; 1.71V to 5.5V supply for digital input and output circuitry, sets logical thresholds for digital interface.
12 GND power_in Digital ground; ground reference voltage for all digital circuitry of the device.
13 REG_CAP passive Internal regulator capacitor pad; connect capacitor for internal regulator.
14 MOD_OUT output Modem output; FSK output sinusoid in HART mode or Manchester coded data stream in FOUNDATION Fieldbus and PROFIBUS PA modes; requires parallel capacitance of 5-22nF in HART mode or 0-100pF in FF/PA mode for stability.
15 REF bidirectional Voltage reference; when internal reference enabled, outputs internal 1.5V reference voltage; when internal reference disabled, accepts external 2.5V reference input.
16 MOD_IN input Modem input; HART FSK input or FOUNDATION Fieldbus and PROFIBUS PA Manchester coded data stream input. Do not connect if external filter is used.
17 MOD_INF input Filtered modem input; when using internal band-pass filter, connect 680pF to pin in HART mode or 120pF in FF/PA modes; when using external filter, connect output of external filter to this pin.
18 AVDD power_in Analog power supply; 2.7V to 5.5V supply voltage for analog circuitry of the device.
19 GND power_in Analog ground; ground reference voltage for power supply input.
20 X2 input Crystal oscillator stimulus input; second terminal of external crystal oscillator.
21 X1 input Crystal or clock input; first terminal of external crystal oscillator or external CMOS clock input.
22 GND power_in Digital ground; ground reference voltage for all digital circuitry of the device.
23 REF_EN input Reference enable input; logic high enables internal 1.5V reference. No digital input pin should be left floating.
24 BPF_EN input Band-pass filter enable input; logic high enables internal band-pass filter. No digital input pin should be left floating.
25 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
