The AD9742ARUZ is a high performance low power CMOS Digital-to-analog Converter (DAC) consisting of pin-compatible 12-bit DAC, is specifically optimized for the transmit signal path of communication systems. It offers exceptional ac and dc performance while supporting update rates up to 210MSPS. The low power dissipation makes it well suited for many applications. Its power dissipation can be further reduced to a mere 60mW with a slight degradation in performance by lowering the full-scale current output. Also, a power-down mode reduces the standby power dissipation to approximately 15mW. Segmented current source architecture is combined with a proprietary switching technique to reduce spurious components and enhance dynamic performance. Edge-triggered input latches and a 1.2V temperature compensated band gap reference have been integrated to provide a complete monolithic DAC solution.
