The NE5410/SE5410 is a 10-bit high-speed multiplying digital-to-analog converter that is pin- and function-compatible with the industry-standard MC3410, but with improved performance. These converters have high-speed performance and are used as general-purpose building blocks in cost-effective D/A systems. The NE/SE5410 provides complete 10-bit accuracy and differential non-linearity over temperature, and a wide compliance voltage range. Segmented current sources, in conjunction with an R/2R DAC, provide the binary weighted currents. The output buffer amplifier and voltage reference have been omitted to allow greater speed, lower cost, and maximum user flexibility.
