AD7524KNZ is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Analog Devices. It is a complete, dual, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with an on-chip output amplifier and voltage reference. This versatile IC provides precise analog voltage outputs that can be controlled digitally, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Key Features of AD7524KNZ:
1. Dual DAC: AD7524KNZ consists of two separate DACs, each with a resolution of 12 bits. This allows the IC to generate two separate analog output voltages simultaneously.
2. Digital Control: The IC is controlled digitally through a parallel interface, utilizing 12 input address bits (AD0-AD11) and an active-low chip select input (CS). This makes it compatible with various microcontrollers and digital systems.
3. Precise Output Voltage: AD7524KNZ provides accurate analog output voltage with a resolution of 12 bits. It offers ±1 LSB linearity, ensuring minimal deviation from the desired output voltage.
4. Buffered Outputs: The IC includes an on-chip output amplifier that buffers the DAC output voltage, enabling it to drive external loads directly without affecting accuracy or causing significant performance degradation.
5. Integrated Voltage Reference: AD7524KNZ incorporates a precision voltage reference on-chip. This eliminates the need for an external reference source, simplifying the circuit design and reducing overall component count
