dac902 pdf datasheet

The DAC902 is a high-speed, Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC)
offering a 12-bit resolution option within the SpeedPlus Family of
high-performance converters. Featuring pin compatibility among
family members, the DAC908, DAC900, and DAC904 provide a
component selection option to an 8-, 10-, and 14-bit resolution,
respectively. All models within this family of DACs support update
rates in excess of 165MSPS with excellent dynamic performance,
and are especially suited to fulfill the demands of a variety of
applications.
The advanced segmentation architecture of the DAC902 is optimized
to provide a high Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) for
single-tone, as well as for multi-tone signals—essential when used
for the transmit signal path of communication systems.
The DAC902 has a high impedance (200kΩ) current output with a
nominal range of 20mA and an output compliance of up to 1.25V.
The differential outputs allow for both a differential or singleended
analog signal interface. The close matching of the current
outputs ensures superior dynamic performance in the differential
configuration, which can be implemented with a transformer.
Utilizing a small geometry CMOS process, the monolithic DAC902
can be operated on a wide, single-supply range of +2.7V to +5.5V.
Its low power consumption allows for use in portable and batteryoperated
systems. Further optimization can be realized by lowering
the output current with the adjustable full-scale option.
