3 Description
The DAC161P997 is a 16-bit ∑Δ digital-to-analog
converter (DAC) for transmitting an analog output
current over an industry standard 4-20 mA current
loop. It offers 16-bit accuracy with a low output
current temperature coefficient (29 ppm/°C) and
excellent long-term output current drift (90 ppmFS)
while consuming less than 190 µA.
The data link to the DAC161P997 is a Single Wire
Interface (SWIF) which allows sensor data to be
transferred in digital format over an isolation
boundary using a single isolation component. The
DAC161P997’s digital input is compatible with
standard isolation transformers and opto-couplers.
Error detection and handshaking features within the
SWIF protocol ensure error free communication
across the isolation boundary. For applications where
isolation is not required, the DAC161P997 interfaces
directly to a microcontroller.
The loop drive of the DAC161P997 interfaces to a
HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer)
modulator, allowing injection of FSK modulated digital
data into the 4-20 mA current loop. This combination
of specifications and features makes the
DAC161P997 ideal for 2- and 4-wire industrial
transmitters.
The DAC161P997 is available in a 16–lead WQFN
package and is specified over the extended industrial
temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
