DESCRIPTION

The WM2604 is a quadruple 10-bit voltage output, resistor string,

digital-to-analogue converter. Each DAC can be individually

powered down under software control. A hardware controlled mode

is provided that powers down all DACs. Power down reduces

current consumption to 10nA.

The device has been designed to interface efficiently to industry

standard microprocessors and DSPs, including the TMS320

family. The WM2604 is programmed with a 16-bit serial word

comprising of a DAC address, individual DAC control bits and a

10-bit value.

The WM2604 has provision for two supplies: one supply for the

serial interface (DVDD, DGND), and one for the DACs, reference

buffers and output buffers (AVDD, AGND). This enables a typical

application

where

the

device

can

be

controlled

via

a

microprocessor operating on a 3V supply, with the DACs operating

on a 5V supply. Alternatively, the supplies can be tied together in a

single supply application.

Excellent performance is delivered with a typical DNL of

±0.1 LSB.

The settling time of the DAC is programmable to allow the designer

to optimize speed versus power dissipation. The output stage is

buffered by a x2 gain near rail-to-rail amplifier, which features a

Class AB output stage. DACs A and B can have a different

reference voltage to DACs C and D.

The device is available in a 16-pin TSSOP package. Commercial

temperature (0

° to 70°C) and Industrial temperature (-40° to 85°C)

variants are supported.
