Four 16-bit channels on one SPI bus
The Texas Instruments DAC7634EB packs four independent 16-bit voltage-output DACs into a single 48-SSOP package, each channel addressed over a shared SPI interface.
Supply rails and temperature range
Analog section runs on ±5 V, the digital core on a separate 5 V supply. That split-rail requirement is the main PSU constraint — the analog rail needs a bipolar supply, so a single +5 V rail won't cut it.
Linearity and interface
INL is ±2 LSB, DNL ±1 LSB — typical for a 16-bit R-2R DAC and sufficient for most closed-loop analog outputs without external calibration. The SPI interface uses an external reference, so the reference voltage directly sets the output span; pick a low-drift reference if the application demands better than 16-bit accuracy over temperature.
Active and available
Lifecycle status is Active and ROHS3 compliant.
