DESCRIPTION
TLV5638
SLAS225C – JUNE 1999 – REVISED JANUARY 2004
2.7-V TO 5.5-V LOW-POWER DUAL 12-BIT DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTER WITH
INTERNAL REFERENCE AND POWER DOWN
• Dual 12-Bit Voltage Output DAC
• Programmable Internal Reference
• Programmable Settling Time:
– 1 µs in Fast Mode,
– 3.5 µs in Slow Mode
• Compatible With TMS320 and SPI™ Serial
Ports
• Differential Nonlinearity <0.5 LSB Typ
• Monotonic Over Temperature
• Digital Servo Control Loops
• Digital Offset and Gain Adjustment
• Industrial Process Control
• Machine and Motion Control Devices
• Mass Storage Devices
The TLV5638 is a dual 12-bit voltage output DAC with a flexible 3-wire serial interface. The serial interface allows
glueless interface to TMS320, SPI™, QSPI™, and Microwire™ serial ports. It is programmed with a 16-bit serial
string containing 4 control and 12 data bits.
The resistor string output voltage is buffered by a x2 gain rail-to-rail output buffer. The buffer features a Class AB
output stage to improve stability and reduce settling time. The programmable settling time of the DAC allows the
designer to optimize speed vs power dissipation. With its on-chip programmable precision voltage reference, the
TLV5638 simplifies overall system design.
Because of its ability to source up to 1 mA, the reference can also be used as a system reference. Implemented
with a CMOS process, the device is designed for single supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. It is available in an
8-pin SOIC package to reduce board space in standard commercial, industrial, and automotive temperature
ranges. It is also available in JG and FK packages in the military temperature range.
