Analog Devices AD9726 16‑Bit DAC Datasheet
The AD9726 is a 16‑bit DAC capable of conversion rates up to 400 MSPS. It uses low‑voltage differential signaling (LVDS) inputs with built‑in 100 Ω terminations and provides both single‑ended and differential current outputs. An internal precision reference and programmable full‑scale output current (20 mA) are included, and the device operates from 2.5 V and 3.3 V supplies.
Key features include high dynamic performance (SFDR ≥ 78 dBc at 20 MHz, THD ≤ ‑95 dB at 1 MHz), wide temperature range (‑40 °C to +85 °C), and extensive timing and synchronization logic for SDR and DDR operation. The AD9726 is suited for instrumentation, test equipment, waveform synthesis, and communications systems.
