Example Devices

Examples of our device catalog and specific DAC parts can be found below.

DAC43701 – Cost Optimized, Low Power

Even the low-cost devices can support extra features to add flexibility for the user.

  • 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit versions
  • Includes EEPROM and Smart DAC features.
  • String DAC architecture provides low glitch and stable VREF input impedance

DAC80516 – High Channel Count, Small Package

DAC devices can support many channels while maintaining a small package size.

  • 12-bit and 16-bit versions
  • R-2R architecture supports higher resolutions and multiple channels with significantly lower resistor count.
  • Fast settling time of 6us which enables quicker code-to-code transitions.

DAC8775 – Expanded Feature Set, Industrial Control

Some DACs have an increased feature set to facilitate more complex factory automation applications.

  • Adaptive Power Management which minimizes power dissipation of the chip.
  • Extended monitoring functions such as CRC/Frame Error Check, Watchdog Timer, Thermal Alarm, and Open/Short Circuit protection.
  • Integrated Buck-Boost converter for each channel to minimize power dissipation and provide significant system integration.
  • Auto Learn Mode to sense the load current and optimize the settling time.
