Working Principles

The DAC7643VFBR operates by converting digital input data into corresponding analog voltages. It utilizes a 16-bit digital word to represent the desired analog output level. The digital data is received through the serial interface and processed internally to generate the appropriate analog output voltage. The voltage reference input (VREF) determines the maximum output voltage range, while the supply voltage (VDD) powers the internal circuitry.

The DAC uses a resistor ladder network and switches to convert the digital input into an analog voltage. Each bit of the digital word controls a switch in the ladder network, allowing the combination of switches to determine the output voltage level. The settling time specifies the time required for the output voltage to stabilize after a change in the digital input.
