5 Description (continued)

A power-on reset circuit ensures that the DAC output powers up to zero volts and remains there until there is a valid write to the device. A power-down feature reduces power consumption to less than a microWatt with three different termination options.

The low power consumption and small packages of the DAC124S085 make it an excellent choice for use in battery-operated equipment.

The DAC124S085 is one of a family of pin-compatible DACs, including the 8-bit DAC084S085 and the 10-bit DAC104S085. The DAC124S085 operates over the extended industrial temperature range of −40°C to 105°C.
