TLC5615C, TLC5615I
10-BIT DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTERS
SLAS142C – OCTOBER 1996 – REVISED MARCH 2000
APPLICATION INFORMATION
general function
The TLC5615 uses a resistor string network buffered with an op amp in a fixed gain of 2 to convert 10-bit digital
data to analog voltage levels (see functional block diagram and Figure 9). The output of the TLC5615 is the
same polarity as the reference input (see Table 1).
An internal circuit resets the DAC register to all zeros on power up.

must be written since the DAC input latch is 12 bits wide.
