Overview

The 8-bit DAC43508, 10-bit DAC53508, and 12-bit DAC63508 (DACx3508) are a pin-compatible family of eight-channel, buffered voltage-output digital-to-analog converters (DACs). With an external reference ranging from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, a full-scale output voltage of 1.8 V to 5.5 V is achievable. These devices are specified monotonic across the power-supply range.

Communication to the devices is established through a three-wire SPI-compatible interface. These devices do not support readback operation. These devices include a load DAC (LDAC) pin for simultaneous DAC updates and a clear (CLR) pin for setting the outputs to zero scale.

The DACx3508 devices are characterized for operation over the temperature range of –40°C to +125°C and are available in tiny QFN packages.
