•
Micropower Operation: 600 µA at 5 V VDD
Power-On Reset to Zero
+2.7 V to +5.5 V Analog Power Supply
12-Bit Monotonic
I2C™ Interface Up to 3.4 Mbps
The DAC7574 is a low-power, quad channel, 12-bit
buffered voltage output DAC. Its on-chip precision out-
put amplifier allows rail-to-rail output swing to be
achieved. The DAC7574 utilizes an I2C compatible two
wire serial interface supporting high-speed interface
mode with address support of up to four DAC7574s for
a total of 16 channels on the bus.

On-Chip Output Buffer Amplifier, Rail-to-Rail
Operation
Double-Buffered Input Register
Address Support for up to Four DAC7574s
The DAC7574 uses VDD and GND to set the output
range of the DAC. The DAC7574 incorporates a
power-on-reset circuit that ensures that the DAC output
powers up at zero volts and remains there until a valid
write takes place to the device. The DAC7574 contains
a power-down feature, accessed via the internal control
register, that reduces the current consumption of the
device to 200 nA at 5 V.

Synchronous Update Support for up to 16
Channels
Operation From -40°C to 105°C
Small 10 Lead MSOP Package

The low power consumption of this part in normal
operation makes it ideally suited to portable battery
operated equipment. The power consumption is less
than 3mW at VDD = 5 V reducing to 1 µW in power-down
mode.
