LTC1456 12-Bit Rail-to-Rail Micropower DAC with Clear Input DESCRIPTION FEATURES n SO-8 Package The LTC 1456 is a complete single supply, rail-to-rail n 12-Bit Resolution voltage output, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) in n Buffered True Rail-to-Rail Voltage Output an SO-8 package. It includes a rail-to-rail output buffer n Asynchronous Clear Input amplifier and an easy-to-use 3-wire cascadable serial n Built-In Reference interface. The LTC1456 includes a CLR pin that asynchro- n Schmitt Trigger On Clock Input Allows Direct nously clears the DAC to zero scale. Optocoupler Interface The LTC1456 has an internal 2.048V reference and a full- n Power-On Reset Clears DAC to 0V scale output of 4.095V. It operates on a 4.5V to 5.5V n 3-Wire Cascadable Serial Interface supply, dissipating 2.2mW. n Maximum DNL Error: 0.5LSB n The low power supply current and the space saving SO-8 Low Cost package make the LTC1456 ideal for battery-powered U applications.
