APPLICATIONS
Description
The LTC1590 is a dual 12-bit multiplying DAC that has
serial inputs and current outputs. It uses precision R/2R
resistor ladder technology to provide exceptional linearity
and stability. The device operates from a single 5V supply
and provides a 10V reference input and voltage output
range when used with an external op amp.
Serial I/O
The LTC1590 has a 3-wire SPI/MICROWIRE
serial port that accepts 24-bit serial words. Data is loaded
MSB first with the first 12 bits controlling DAC A and the
second 12 bits controlling DAC B. Data is shifted into the
D
be taken low before transferring data to enable the CLK
input. After transferring data, CS/LD is pulled high to load
data from the shift register to the DAC registers which
updates both DACs.
The buffered output of the 24-bit shift register is available
on the D
one 3-wire interface by connecting the D
pin of the next DAC (see the Timing Diagrams section).
