denseDACs®


Analog Devices denseDAC® products represent a unique portfolio of highly integrated multi-channel precision DACs in small footprints with the following features:
  • 8-/16-/32-/40- channels
  • 12- to 16-bits resolution
  • Bipolar (±15V ) or single supply (3V or 5V)
  • Voltage output
The AD536x/7x denseDACs® also feature:
  • Programmable output span of 4 x VREF
  • Offset DAC for programmable output range
  • On-chip offset and gain registers for system calibration
  • Channel grouping and addressing
  • Clear function to user-defined SIGGNDx
  • On-chip monitor mux (AD536x)
denseDACs® are used in a broad range of applications, particularly where many precision DAC channels are required in a small footprint e.g. base-station power amplifiers, optical switches, Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) and instrumentation.
