AS1505 D/A Converter IC
Octal, 8-bit, High Accuracy, Low Power, DAC with Shutdown and Zero-Scale Voltage Setting
Description
The AS1504/AS1505 are low-power (5μA @ 5V) individually programmable 8-channel, 8-bit resolution digital-to-analog converters. All eight DACs share a common reference-voltage input making them ideal for applications where adjustments start at a nominal voltage.
| Model | Functionality |
| AS1504 | Mid-Scale Reset Pin |
| AS1505 | Seperate VREFL Range Settings |
The devices feature a low-power shutdown reference input current (5μA) that enables the devices to maintain individual DAC latch settings during shutdown until normal operation is resumed.
The devices are controlled via a standard 3-wire serial interface. Data is shifted into the DACs via the internal serial-to-parallel shift register.
The AS1504/AS1505 are available in a 16-pin SOIC-150 package.
