DAC8560IADGKT – TEXAS INSTRUMENTS

The Texas Instruments DAC8560IADGKT is a 16-bit, voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) housed in a 10-lead, 3×3 mm WSON package. Operating from a ±15V supply, it offers a rail-to-rail output swing, achieving a typical output voltage range of -14.5V to +14.5V. This device features a versatile SPI serial interface, allowing for flexible digital control and integration into various microcontroller systems. Its key specifications include a 100kSPS maximum update rate and a typical integral non-linearity (INL) of ±0.5LSB, ensuring high-precision analog signal generation. The DAC8560IADGKT incorporates internal output buffers, eliminating the need for external op-amps in many applications. Common use cases include precision waveform generation, industrial process control systems requiring high accuracy, and high-resolution audio applications where low distortion is critical. Its advantages lie in its high resolution, wide output voltage range, compact size, and ease of integration, making it a cost-effective solution for demanding applications where space and power consumption are critical factors. The device’s inherent low power consumption further enhances its suitability for battery-powered systems.
