2 µs settling on an 8-bit dual DAC — what it buys the control loop
The AD7302BRUZ from Analog Devices is an 8-bit, dual-channel voltage-output DAC with a parallel interface and a 2 µs settling time. Each of the two converters settles to ±1 LSB INL/DNL within that window, making it a fit for closed-loop control and waveform generation where the update rate matters more than the resolution. The current-source architecture drives a buffered output, so the load sees a low-impedance voltage rail without an external op-amp.
Supply and temperature — where the part lives on the board
The external reference input sets the output span — with a 2.5 V reference the full-scale output is 2.5 V; with a 5 V reference it's 5 V. No internal reference means the designer picks the voltage and drift performance independently.
Package and footprint — 20-TSSOP
Surface-mount only; the tube shipping medium is typical for prototype and low-volume builds, but the part is also available in tape-and-reel for production.
