SLAS464C December 2006 – January 2018 DAC8560
PRODUCTION DATA.
The output buffer amplifier is capable of generating rail-to-rail voltages on its output, giving an output range of 0 V to VDD. It is capable of driving a load of 2 kΩ in parallel with 1000 pF to GND. The source and sink capabilities of the output amplifier can be seen in the Typical Characteristics: DAC at VDD = 5 V. The slew rate is 1.8 V/μs with a full-scale settling time of 8 μs with the output unloaded.
The inverting input of the output amplifier is available at the VFB pin. This feature allows better accuracy in critical applications by tying the VFB point and the amplifier output together directly at the load. Other signal conditioning circuitry may also be connected between these points for specific applications.
