GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MP7651 is ideal for direct gain control of video, compos-
ite video, CCD and other high frequency analog signals. The de-
vice includes 8-channels of high speed, high bandwidth, two
quadrant, multiplying, 8-bit accurate digital-to-analog converter.
It includes an output drive buffer per channel capable of driving
+1mA (typ) to a load. DNL of better than +0.8 LSB is achieved
with a channel-to-channel matching of better than 0.5%. Stabil-
ity, matching, and precision of the DACs is achieved by using
EXAR’s thin film technology. Also, excellent channel-to-channel
isolation is achieved with EXAR’s BiCMOS process which can-
not be achieved using a typical CMOS technology.
An open loop architecture (patent pending) provides wide
small signal bandwidth from V
REF
to output up to 10 MHz (typ),
fast output settling time, and V
REF
feedthrough isolation of
–65dB or better. In addition, low distortion in the order of 0.25%
with a 1 V p–p, 1 MHz signal.
A specified and constant input impedance of each V
REF+
in-
put gives flexibility for optimal system design. The serial data
3-wire standard
µ-processor
logic interface reduces pin count,
package size (28 pin), and board wire (space). Additionally, the
internal chip select decoder allows for easy daisy chaining with-
out the addition of separate control logic.
MP7651 is fabricated on a junction isolated, high speed, dual
metal, linear compatible BiCMOS (BiCMOS IV
TM
) thin film resis-
tors. This process enables precision high speed analog/digital
(mixed-mode) circuits to be fabricated on the same chip.
