The DAC8562 is a complete, parallel input, 12-bit, voltage output DAC designed to operate from a single +5 volt supply. Built using a CBCMOS process, these monolithic DACs offer the user low cost, and ease-of-use in +5 volt only systems. Included on the chip, in addition to the DAC, is a rail-to-rail amplifier, latch and reference. The reference (REFOUT) is trimmed to 2.5 volts, and the on-chip amplifier gains up the DAC output to 4.095 volts full scale. The user needs only supply a +5 volt supply.
