Four 10-bit channels in a 16-TSSOP — what it is and where it fits
The Texas Instruments TLV5604CPW is a 10-bit, quad-channel voltage-output digital-to-analog converter built around a String DAC architecture. It packs four independent DACs into a 16-TSSOP package, each channel delivering a buffered voltage output settable via a common SPI bus. The 18 µs settling time supports per-channel update rates suitable for closed-loop trim, set-point control, or waveform generation in systems that do not require sub-microsecond throughput. Supply range spans 2.7 V to 5 V on both analog and digital rails, so it runs from a single 3.3 V or 5 V supply without a separate analog regulator. The commercial temperature grade (0°C to 70°C) targets indoor equipment — bench instrumentation, office peripherals, test gear, and industrial control panels that stay climate-controlled.
18 µs settling — what it means for the loop
Settling time is 18 µs. The SPI interface latches data on the rising edge of chip-select.
Linearity and monotonicity
INL is ±1 LSB maximum, DNL is ±0.1 LSB typical.
Package and sourcing reality
The TLV5604CPW is supplied in a 16-TSSOP package and ships in Tube form.
