DAC5573
SLAS401 – NOVEMBER 2003
QUAD, 8-BIT, LOW-POWER, VOLTAGE OUTPUT,
I2C INTERFACE DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTER
• Micropower Operation: 500 µA at 3 V V
DD
The DAC5573 is a low-power, quad channel, 8-bit
• Fast Update Rate: 188 kSPS
buffered voltage output DAC. Its on-chip precision
output amplifier allows rail-to-rail output swing. The
• Power-On Reset to Zero
DAC5573 utilizes an I2C-compatible two-wire serial
• 2.7-V to 5.5-V Analog Power Supply
interface supporting high-speed interface mode with
• 8-Bit Monotonic
address support of up to sixteen DAC5573s for a total
• I2C™ Interface up to 3.4 Mbps
of 64 channels on the bus.
• Data Transmit Capability
The DAC5573 requires an external reference voltage
• Rail-to-Rail Output Buffer Amplifier
to set the output range of the DAC. The DAC5573
incorporates a power-on-reset circuit that ensures
• Double-Buffered Input Register
that the DAC output powers up at zero volts and
• Address Support for up to Sixteen DAC5573s
remains there until a valid write takes place in the
• Synchronous Update for up to 64 Channels
device. The DAC5573 contains a power-down fea-

ture, accessed via the internal control register, that
reduces the current consumption of the device to 200

• Small 16 Lead TSSOP Package
The low power consumption of this part in normal
operation makes it ideally suited to portable battery
operated equipment. The power consumption is less
