12-bit DAC with a buffered voltage output and an SPI interface
It uses an R-2R ladder architecture and requires an external voltage reference. The part communicates over a standard SPI data interface, making it straightforward to hook into most microcontrollers or DSPs. Typical applications include industrial process control, instrumentation, and automated test equipment where a precise, fast-settling analog output is needed from a digital bus.
Single 5 V supply, industrial temperature range
Both the analog and digital supplies are tied to a single 5 V rail.
