PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The AD5545/AD5555 are 16-bit/14-bit, current-output, digital-
to-analog converters designed to operate from a 4.5 V to 5.5 V
supply range.
An external reference is needed to establish the full-scale
output-current. An internal feedback resistor (R
FB
) enhances
the resistance and temperature tracking when combined
with an external op amp to complete the I-to-V conversion.
A serial data interface offers high speed, 3-wire microcontroller
compatible inputs using serial data in (SDI), clock (CLK), and
chip select (
CS
). Additional
LDAC
function allows
simultaneous update operation. The internal reset logic allows
power-on preset and dynamic reset at either zero or midscale,
depending on the state of the MSB pin.
The AD5545/AD5555 are packaged in the compact TSSOP-16
package and can be operated from −40°C to +85°C.
