FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®1821 is a parallel input 16-bit multiplying voltage
output DAC that operates from analog supply voltages of
±5V up to ±15V. INL and DNL are accurate to 1LSB over the
industrial temperature range in both unipolar 0V to 10V and
bipolar±10Vmodes.Precise16-bitbipolar±10Voutputsare
achieved with on-chip 4-quadrant multiplication resistors.
The LTC1821 is available in a 36-lead SSOP package and is
specified over the industrial temperature range.

2µs Settling to 0.0015% for 10V Step
■
1LSB Max DNL and INL Over Industrial
Temperature Range
■
On-Chip 4-Quadrant Resistors Allow Precise 0V to
10V, 0V to –10V or ±10V Outputs
■
Low Glitch Impulse: 2nV•s
■
Low Noise: 13nV/√Hz

Power-On Reset
Thedeviceincludesaninternaldeglitchercircuitthatreduces
the glitch impulse to less than 2nV•s (typ). The LTC1821
settles to 1LBS in 2µs with a full-scale 10V step. The
combinationoffast,precisesettlingandultralowglitchmake
the LTC1821 ideal for precision industrial control applica-
tions.
