LTC2609

The LTC^®2609/LTC2619/LTC2629 are quad 16-, 14- and 12-bit, 2.7V-to-5.5V rail-to-rail voltage output DACs in a 16-lead SSOP package. They have built-in high performance output buffers and are guaranteed monotonic.

These parts establish new board-density benchmarks for 16- and 14-bit DACs and advance performance standards for output drive and load regulation in single-supply, voltage-output DACs.

The parts use a 2-wire, I²C compatible serial interface. The LTC2609/LTC2619/LTC2629 operate in both the standard mode (clock rate of 100kHz) and the fast mode (clock rate of 400kHz).

The LTC2609/LTC2619/LTC2629 incorporate a power-on reset circuit. During power-up, the voltage outputs rise less than 10mV above zero scale; after power-up, they stay at zero scale until a valid write and update take place. The  power-on reset circuit resets the LTC2609-1/LTC2619-1/ LTC2629-1 to midscale. The voltage outputs stay at midscale until a valid write and update take place.
