DAC8550IDGKR

The Texas Instruments DAC8550IDGKR is a high-performance, 16-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed for precision voltage output applications. This device offers a resolution of 16 bits, enabling fine control over analog output signals. It utilizes a buffered voltage output type and supports an output voltage range from 0 to 5.5V.

The DAC8550IDGKR features a versatile 3-wire serial interface compatible with SPI and DSP protocols, operating at clock rates up to 30 MHz. It boasts a settling time of 10µs to ±0.003% FSR and an Integral Non-Linearity (INL) of ±3 LSB (max). The device operates from a power supply range of 2.7V to 5.5V and consumes minimal power, typically 1mW.

Designed for reliability and performance, this DAC is monotonic and minimizes undesired code-to-code transient voltages, offering low glitch energy of 0.1 nV-s. It includes an on-chip output buffer amplifier with rail-to-rail output capabilities. The operating temperature range is from -40°C to 105°C, making it suitable for various environmental conditions.

Packaged in an 8-VSSOP or 8-MSOP package, the DAC8550IDGKR is designed for surface mount applications. Its compact size and low power consumption make it an ideal choice for space-constrained designs requiring accurate analog signal generation.
