CONVERTER
• Micropower Operation: 160 µA @ 5 V
The DAC8571 is a small low-power, 16-bit voltage
• Power-On Reset to Zero
output DAC with an I
2
C compatible two-wire serial
interface. Its on-chip precision output amplifier allows
• Single Supply: +2.7 V to +5.5 V
rail-to-rail output swing and settles within 10
• 16-Bit Monotonic
microseconds. The DAC8571 architecture is 16-bit
• Settling Time: 10 µs to ±0.003% FSR
monotonic, and factory trimming typically achieves ±4

requires an external reference voltage to set its
output voltage range.
• On-Chip Rail-to-Rail Output Buffer
• Double-Buffered Input Register
The low power consumption and small size of this
part make it ideally suited to portable battery
