DESCRIPTION
The DAC8830 and DAC8831 are single, 16-bit,
serial-input,
voltage-output
digital-to-analog
converters (DACs) operating from a single 3 V to 5 V
power supply. These converters provide excellent
linearity (1 LSB INL), low glitch, low noise, and fast
settling (1.0
µS
to 1/2 LSB of full-scale output) over
the specified temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
The output is unbuffered, which reduces the power
consumption and the error introduced by the buffer.
These parts feature a standard high-speed (clock up
to 50 MHz), 3 V or 5 V SPI serial interface to
communicate with the DSP or microprocessors.
The DAC8830 output is 0 V to V
REF
. However, the
DAC8831 provides bipolar output (±V
REF
) when
working with an external buffer. The DAC8830 and
DAC8831 are both reset to zero-code after power
up. For optimum performance, a set of Kelvin
connections to external reference and analog ground
input are provided on the DAC8831.
The DAC8830 is available in an SO-8 package, and
the DAC8831 in an SO-14 package. Both have
industry standard pinouts (see
Table 3,
the
cross-reference table in the
Application Information
section for details). The DAC8831 is also available in
a QFN-14 package.

SLAS449C – FEBRUARY 2005 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2006
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be
more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.

The DAC8830 output is unipolar (0 V to +V
REF
). The DAC8831 output is bipolar (±V
REF
) when it connects to an external buffer (see the
Bipolar Output Operation
section for details).
Slew Rate is measure from 10% to 90% of transition when the output changes from 0 to full scale.
Digital feedthrough is defined as the impulse injected into the analog output from the digital input. It is measured when the DAC output
does not change; CS is held high, while SCLK and DIN signals are toggled.
