This datasheet introduces the features and characteristics of the DAC8718 from TI. The DAC8718 is a low-power, octal, 16-bit digital-to-analog converter.
The DAC8718 is an octal, 16‑bit DAC that can operate from dual‑supply or single‑supply voltages, providing bipolar output ranges of ±2 V to ±16.5 V and unipolar ranges of 0 V to +33 V. It features a high‑speed SPI interface up to 50 MHz, low power consumption (14.4 mW per channel), and programmable gain and offset.
The device is supplied in QFN‑48 and TQFP‑64 packages and is rated for operation from –40 °C to +105 °C. Detailed electrical characteristics, absolute maximum ratings, and mechanical drawings are included for design engineers.
