FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
2345
•
Bipolar Output: ±2V to ±16.5V
Unipolar Output: 0V to +33V
12-Bit Resolution
The DAC7718 is
digital-to-analog converter (DAC). With
a
low-power, octal, 12-bit
5V
a
•
reference, the output can either be a bipolar ±15V
voltage when operating from dual ±15.5V (or higher)
power supplies, or a unipolar 0V to +30V voltage
when operating from a +30.5V (or higher) power
supply. With a 5.5V reference, the output can either
be a bipolar ±16.5V voltage when operating from dual
±17V (or higher) power supplies, or a unipolar 0V to
+33V voltage when operating from a +33.5V (or
higher) power supply. This DAC provides low-power
operation, good linearity, and low glitch over the
specified temperature range of –40°C to +105°C. This
device is trimmed in manufacturing and has very low
zero-code and gain error. In addition, system level
calibration can be performed over the entire signal
chain. The output range can be offset by using the
DAC offset register.

SPI™: Up to 50MHz, 1.8V/3V/5V Logic
Schmitt Trigger Inputs
Daisy-Chain with Sleep Mode Enhancement
The DAC7718 features a standard, high-speed serial
peripheral interface (SPI) that operates at up to
50MHz and is 1.8V, 3V, and 5V logic compatible, to
communicate with a DSP or microprocessor. The
input data of the device are double-buffered. An
asynchronous load input (LDAC) transfers data from
the DAC data register to the DAC latch. The
asynchronous CLR input sets the output of all eight
DACs to AGND. The VMON pin is a monitor output
that connects to the individual analog outputs, the
offset DAC, the reference buffer outputs, and two
external inputs through a multiplexer (mux).
Packages: QFN-48 (7x7mm), TQFP-64
