Introduction
The DAC7811 is a single, 12-bit, serial-input, current-output, digital-to-analog (DAC) converter operating
from a single 3-V to 5-V power supply. This converter provides excellent 4-quadrant multiplication
characteristics, with a large signal multiplying bandwidth of 10 MHz. An integrated feedback resistor
provides temperature tracking and full-scale voltage output when combined with an external cur-
rent-to-voltage (I-to-V) precision amplifier. The EVM provides the external I-to-V amplifier and DPDT
switch to allow unipolar and bipolar output operation.
The modular EVM form factor allows direct evaluation of the DAC's performance and operating
