PIN FUNCTIONS
BLOCK DIAGRAM
CLK (Pin 1): Serial Interface Clock. Internal Schmitt trigger
on this input allows direct optocoupler interface.
DIN (Pin 2): Serial Interface Data. Data on the DIN pin is
latched into the shift register on the rising edge of the
serial clock.
CS/LD (Pin 3): Serial Interface Enable and Load Control.
When
CS/LD is low the CLK signal is enabled, so the data
can be clocked in. When
CS/LDispulledhigh,dataisloaded
from the shift register into the DAC register, updating the
DAC output and the CLK is disabled internally.
DOUT (Pin 4): Output of the Shift Register which Becomes
Valid on the Rising Edge of the Serial Clock.
GND (Pin 5): Ground.
REF (Pin 6): Reference Input. This pin can be tied to VCC.
The output will swing from 0V to REF. The typical input
resistance is 28k.
VOUT (Pin 7): Buffered DAC Output.
VCC (Pin 8): Positive Supply Input. 2.7V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.5V.
Requires a bypass capacitor to ground.
