GENERAL DESCRIPTION The AD7846 is a 16-bit DAC constructed with the Analog Devices, to 00…000 or 10…000 depending on the state of R/W. This 2 Inc., LC MOS process. It has VREF+ and VREF− reference inputs means that the DAC output can be reset to 0 V in both the and an on-chip output amplifier. These can be configured to unipolar and bipolar configurations. give a unipolar output range (0 V to +5 V, 0 V to +10 V) or The AD7846 is available in 28-lead plastic, ceramic, and PLCC bipolar output ranges (±5 V, ±10 V). packages.

The CLR pin resets the There are three DACs, each of which has its own buffer DAC latch contents to 000…000 or 100…000, depending on the amplifiers. DAC1 and DAC2 are 4-bit DACs. They share a state of R/W. Writing a CLR loads 000…000 and reading a CLR 16-resistor string but have their own analog multiplexers. The loads 100…000. To reset a DAC to 0 V in a unipolar system, the voltage reference is applied to the resistor string. DAC3 is a CLR W user should assert while R/ is low; to reset to 0 V in a 12-bit voltage mode DAC with its own output stage. CLR W bipolar system, assert the while R/ is high. The four MSBs of the 16-bit digital code drive DAC1 and DAC2, R/W and the 12 LSBs control DAC3. Using DAC1 and DAC2, the CLR MSBs select a pair of adjacent nodes on the resistor string and present that voltage to the positive and negative inputs of DAC DAC3. This DAC interpolates between these two voltages to produce the analog output voltage. 16 To prevent nonmonotonicity in the DAC due to amplifier offset DB15 RST LDAC DB15 TO DB0 voltages, DAC1 and DAC2 leap along the resistor string. For DB15 SET LATCHES example, when switching from Segment 1 to Segment 2, DAC1 DB14 TO DB0 RST switches from the bottom of Segment 1 to the top of Segment 2 16 while DAC2 stays connected to the top of Segment 1. The code 3-STATE I/O driving DAC3 is automatically complemented to compensate LATCH CS for the inversion of its inputs. This means that any linearity 16 effects due to amplifier offset voltages remain unchanged when switching from one segment to the next and 16-bit monotonicity is DB15 DB0 ensured if DAC3 is monotonic. Thus, 12-bit resistor matching Figure 20. Input Control Logic in DAC3 guarantees overall 16-bit monotonicity. This is much more achievable than 16-bit matching, which a conventional R-2R structure needs. Rev.

This short state keeps the DAC ONE output at its previous voltage while the AD7846 is internally SHOT changing to its new value. Thus, any glitches that occur in the transition are not seen at the output. In systems where the LDAC LDAC is tied permanently low, the deglitching is not in Figure 22. Output Stage Rev.

Frequently asked questions

What makes Elite.Parts unique?

chervon down
At GID Industrial (Elite.Parts' parent company), we specialize in procuring industrial parts. We know where to find the rare and obsolete equipment that our customers need in order to get back to business. There are other companies who claim to do what we do, but we're confident that our commitment to quality and value is unparalleled in our field.

What kind of warranty will the AD7846 have?

chervon down
Warranties differ by part and by which suppliers we use to procure it for you. Sometimes, a part will be sold as-is and without a warranty. Our specialty, single board computers, tend to receive a one-year warranty.

Which carriers does Elite.Parts work with?

chervon down
Elite.Parts can ship via FedEx, UPS, DHL, and USPS. We have accounts with each of them and generally ship using one of those, but we can also ship using your account if you would prefer. However, we can use other carriers if it will be more convenient for you.

Will Elite.Parts sell to me even though I live outside the USA?

chervon down
Absolutely! We are happy to serve customers regardless of location. We work with international clients all the time, and we are familiar with shipping to destinations all across the globe.

I have a preferred payment method. Will Elite.Parts accept it?

chervon down
All major credit cards are accepted: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. We will also accept payment made with wire transfer or PayPal. Checks will only be accepted from customers in the USA. Terms may available for larger orders, upon approval.

HARD TO FIND A BETTER PROVIDER

star star star star star

Our company provides services to aid in the manufacture of technological products, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays, and often searching for distributors of obsolete product we require can waste time and money. Finding GID Industrial proved to be a great asset to our company, with cost effective solutions and superior knowledge on all of their materials, it’d be hard to find a better provider of obsolete or hard to find products.

CONSISTENTLY DELIVERS QUALITY SOLUTIONS

star star star star star

Over the years, the equipment used in our company becomes discontinued, but they’re still of great use to us and our customers. Once these products are no longer available through the manufacturer, finding a reliable, quick supplier is a necessity, and luckily for us, GID Industrial has provided the most trustworthy, quality solutions to our obsolete component needs.
