Power-On Reset
The DAC8571 contains a power-on-reset circuit that controls the output voltage during power-up. On power-up,
the DAC register is filled with zeros and the output voltage is 0V; it remains there until a valid write sequence is
made to the DAC. This is useful in applications where it is important to know the state of the output of the DAC
while it is in the process of powering up. No input is brought high before the power is applied.
Power-Down Modes
The DAC8571 contains five separate power settings. These modes are programmable when C<0>=1. When
C<0>=1, M<7>, M<6>, and M<5> bits represent power setting control bits, and M<4...0> and L<7...0> are
assigned to zeroes. Power setting of DAC8571 is updated at the falling edge of the acknowledge signal that
follows the least significant byte. To set the power consumption of the device, following I2C sequence is used.
