DACs for industrial applications

10 June 2009 Analogue, Mixed Signal, LSI

Extending its family of digital-to-analog converters (DACs), Texas Instruments has introduced the DAC8568 (16-bit), DAC8168 (14-bit) and DAC7568 (12-bit) for data acquisition systems, industrial process control and portable instrumentation. The new devices integrate eight channels of precision DACs, while the family’s 2 ppm/°C internal reference saves space and cost over external references.

Low output glitch energy of 0,1 nV-s reduces undesired transients and noise and leads to low total harmonic distortion when generating waveforms. The devices operate over the temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and consume 0,56 mW per channel, including internal reference current. They are available in small TSSOP-14 or TSSOP-16 packages.
