converter (DAC) that can operate from a single 2.7-V
to 5.5-V supply and consumes 1.95 mW at 3 V and
4.85 mW at 5 V. The DAC128S085 is packaged in a
16-lead WQFN package and a 16-lead TSSOP
package. The WQFN package makes the
DAC128S085 the smallest OCTAL DAC in its class.
The on-chip output amplifiers allow rail-to-rail output
swing, and the 3-wire serial interface operates at
clock rates up to 40 MHz over the entire supply
voltage range. Competitive devices are limited to 25-
MHz clock rates at supply voltages in the 2.7-V to
3.6-V range. The serial interface is compatible with
standard SPI™, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP
interfaces. The DAC128S085 also offers daisy-chain
operation, where an unlimited number of
DAC128S085s can be updated simultaneously using
a single serial interface.

Supply Power
There are two references for the DAC128S085. One
reference input serves channels A through D, while
the other reference serves channels E through H.
Each reference can be set independently between
0.5 V and VA, providing the widest possible output
dynamic range. The DAC128S085 has a 16-bit input
shift register that controls the mode of operation, the
power-down condition, and the register/output value
of the DAC channels. All eight DAC outputs can be
updated simultaneously or individually.
