MCP4821T-E/MS Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MCP4821T-E/MS from Microchip Technology is a 12-bit, single-channel, buffered voltage output Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC). It is designed for applications requiring precise voltage output, such as set point or offset trimming, sensor calibration, and portable instrumentation.

 

This DAC operates from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply and utilizes an SPI-compatible serial peripheral interface with support for up to 20 MHz clock speeds. It features a fast settling time of 4.5 µs (typical) and includes a high-precision 2.048V internal voltage reference. The full-scale output range can be configured to either 2.048V or 4.096V through a gain selection bit.

 

The device is available in an 8-MSOP package, suitable for surface mounting. It operates within an extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for various industrial environments. The MCP4821T-E/MS also incorporates features like simultaneous latching of the DAC output with the LDAC pin and a power-on reset circuit for reliable operation.
