SBAS439A –AUGUST 2008–REVISED AUGUST 2011
1.8V to 5.5V, 80μA, 14- and 16-Bit, Low-Power, Single-Channel,
DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTERS in SC70 Package
Check for Samples: DAC8311,DAC8411
1FEATURES DESCRIPTION
The DAC8311 (14-bit) and DAC8411 (16-bit) are
234•Relative Accuracy: low-power, single-channel, voltage output
–1 LSB INL (DAC8311: 14-bit) digital-to-analog converters (DAC). They provide
–4 LSB INL (DAC8411: 16-bit) excellent linearity and minimize undesired
code-to-code transient voltages while offering an
•microPower Operation: 80μA at 1.8V easy upgrade path within a pin-compatible family. All
•Power-Down: 0.5μA at 5V, 0.1μA at 1.8V devices use a versatile, 3-wire serial interface that
•Wide Power Supply: +1.8V to +5.5V operates at clock rates of up to 50MHz and is
compatible with standard SPI™, QSPI™,
•Power-On Reset to Zero Scale MICROWIRE™, and digital signal processor (DSP)
•Straight Binary Data Format interfaces.
•Low Power Serial Interface with All devices use an external power supply as a
Schmitt-Triggered Inputs: Up to 50MHz reference voltage to set the output range. The
•On-Chip Output Buffer Amplifier, Rail-to-Rail devices incorporate a power-on reset (POR) circuit
Operation that ensures the DAC output powers up at 0V and
•SYNC Interrupt Facility remains there until a valid write to the device occurs.
The DAC8311 and DAC8411 contain a power-down
•Extended Temperature Range –40°C to +125°Cfeature, accessed over the serial interface, that
•Pin-Compatible Family in a Tiny, 6-Pin SC70 reduces current consumption of the device to 0.1μA
Package at 1.8V in power down mode. The low power
consumption of this part in normal operation makes it
APPLICATIONS ideally suited for portable, battery-operated
equipment. The power consumption is 0.55mW at 5V,
•Portable, Battery-Powered instruments reducing to 2.5μW in power-down mode.
•Process Control These devices are pin-compatible with the DAC5311,
•Digital Gain and Offset Adjustment DAC6311, and DAC7311, offering an easy upgrade
•Programmable Voltage and Current Sources path from 8-, 10-, and 12-bit resolution to 14- and
16-bit. All devices are available in a small, 6-pin,
SC70 package. This package offers a flexible,
pin-compatible, and functionally-compatible drop-in
