AD7533CQ

The AD7533CQ is a low-cost, 10-bit, 4-quadrant multiplying digital-to-analog converter (DAC) manufactured by Analog Devices. It utilizes an advanced thin-film-on-monolithic CMOS wafer fabrication process and is pin and function equivalent to the industry-standard AD7520. This DAC is recommended as a cost-effective alternative for existing AD7520 sockets or new 10-bit DAC designs.

Key electrical specifications include a 10-bit resolution, R-2R architecture, and an external reference type. It offers a wide operating voltage range of 5V to 15V and a fast settling time of 800ns to the least significant bit (LSB). The integral and differential non-linearity are both specified at a maximum of ±1 LSB. The output type is current, unbuffered, and it supports differential output.

The AD7533CQ is designed for applications such as digitally controlled attenuators, programmable gain amplifiers, and function generation. It can interface directly with TTL or CMOS logic. The device operates within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. It is available in a 16-CERDIP package and supports through-hole mounting.

This DAC is manufactured using a CMOS process, offering low power dissipation. It is latch-free, eliminating the need for protection Schottky diodes. The AD7533CQ provides flexibility in application due to its ability to interface with TTL or CMOS and operate on various power supply voltages, while providing proper binary scaling for both positive and negative reference inputs.
