DAC530A2W
10-bit 300-mA current-source DAC with supervisor comparator or VDAC channel, NVM and GPIO
DAC530A2W
- Current-source DAC:
- 1LSB DNL
- Two ranges: 300mA and 220mA
- 770mV headroom
- Dual (DAC532A3W only) voltage-output DACs:
- 1LSB DNL
- Gains of 1 ×, 1.5 ×, 2 ×, 3 ×, and 4 ×
- Programmable comparator mode on channel 1
- High-impedance output when VDD is off
- High-impedance and resistive pull-down power-down modes
- 50MHz SPI-compatible interface
- Automatically detects I2C or SPI
- 1.62V VIH with VDD = 5.5V
- General-purpose input/output (GPIO) configurable as multiple functions
- Predefined waveform generation: sine, cosine, triangular, sawtooth
- User-programmable nonvolatile memory (NVM)
- Internal or power-supply as reference
- Wide operating range:
- Power supply: 3V to 5.5V
- Temperature: –40˚C to +125˚C
The three-channel DAC532A3W and the dual-channel DAC530A2W (DAC53xAxW) are 10-bit, buffered voltage-output and current-output smart digital-to-analog-converters (DAC). The DAC53xAxW devices support a current source that is used for linear control of laser diodes and miniature motors. These devices support Hi-Z power-down mode and Hi-Z output during power-off conditions for voltage output. Channel 1 is configurable as a voltage-output DAC or a comparator. The voltage-output DACs provide a force-sense option for use as a programmable comparator and current sink. The multifunction GPIO, function generation, and programmable nonvolatile memory (NVM) enable these smart DACs for processor-less applications and design reuse. These devices automatically detect SPI or I2C interfaces, and contain an internal reference.
The DAC53xAxW feature set combined with the tiny package and low power make these smart DACs an excellent choice for laser diode power control and voice-coil motor (VCM) control in camera lens auto focus and zoom applications.
