GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7538 is a 14-bit monolithic CMOS digital-to-analog
converter (DAC) that uses laser trimmed thin-film resistors to
achieve excellent linearity.
The DAC is loaded by a single 14-bit wide word using standard
chip select and memory write logic. Double buffering, which is
optional using LDAC, allows simultaneous updates in a system
containing multiple AD7538s.
A novel low leakage configuration enables the AD7538 to
exhibit excellent output leakage current characteristics over
the specified temperature range.
The AD7538 is manufactured using the linear-compatible
CMOS (LC²MOS) process. It is speed compatible with most
microprocessors and accepts TTL or CMOS logic level inputs.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Guaranteed Monotonicity.
The AD7538 is guaranteed monotonic to 14-bits over the
full temperature range for all grades.
2. Low Cost.
The AD7538, with its 14-bit dynamic range, affords a low
cost solution for 12-bit system upgrades.
3. Small Package Size.
The AD7538 is packaged in a small 24-pin, 0.3" DIP and a
24-pin SOIC.
4. Low Output Leakage.
By tying VSS (Pin 24) to a negative voltage, it is possible to
achieve a low output leakage current at high temperatures.
5. Wide Power Supply Tolerance.
The device operates on a +12 V to +15 V VDD, with a ±5%
tolerance on this nominal figure. All specifications are
guaranteed over this range.
