GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The DAC10 series of 10-bit monolithic multiplying digital-to-

analog converters provide high speed performance and full-scale

accuracy.

Advanced circuit design achieves 85 ns settling times with very

low “glitch” energy and low power consumption. Direct inter-

face to all popular logic families with full noise immunity is

provided by the high swing, adjustable threshold logic inputs.

All DAC10 series models guarantee full 10-bit monotonicity,

and nonlinearities as tight as +0.05% over the entire operating

temperature range are available. Device performance is essen-

tially unchanged over the

± 18 V power supply range, with

85 mW power consumption attainable at lower supplies.

A highly stable, unique trim method is used, which selectively

shorts Zener diodes, to provide 1/2 LSB full-scale accuracy

without the need for laser trimming.

Single-chip reliability, coupled with low cost and outstanding

flexibility, make the DAC10 device an ideal building block for

A/D converters, Data Acquisition systems, CRT displays, pro-

grammable test equipment and other applications where low

power consumption, input/output versatility and long-term

stability are required.
