GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MP7228 contains eight 8-bit voltage-output Digital-to-
Analog Converters, with BiCMOS output buffer amplifiers and
interface logic on a monolithic chip. Separate on-chip latches
are provided for each of the eight D/A converters. The control
logic is speed compatible with most 8-bit microprocessors. All
digital inputs are TTL/CMOS(5V) compatible.
The MP7228 is manufactured using EXAR’s advanced thin
film resistors on a double metal BiCMOS process. The MP7228
incorporates a unique bit decoding technique yielding lower
glitch, higher speed and excellent accuracy over temperature
and time. The MP7228 maintains 8-Bit accuracy over the full op-
erating temperature range without laser trim or external adjust-
ments.

NOTES:
1
V
OUT
must be less than V
DD
by 3.5 V to ensure correct operation.
2
Total Unadjusted Error includes zero code error, relative accuracy and full-scale error.
3
Calculated after zero code error has been adjusted out.
4
Sample tested at 25°C to ensure compliance.
5
The glitch impulse transferred to the output of one converter (not adjusted) due to a change in the digital input code to another
addressed converter.
6
All input rise and fall times are measured from 10% to 90% of +5 V, t
R
= t
F
= 5 ns.
7
Timing measurement reference level is (V
