Single-channel 16-bit DAC enables high density analogue output modules
Incorporating Analog Devices’ second generation Dynamic Power Control (DPC), the AD5758 digital to analogue converter (DAC) enables high density AOUT modules without requiring de-rating. There is no need to turn off channels due to thermal build up, explains Analog Devices, resulting in lower cost, more compact designs.
This single-channel current/voltage DAC with DPC is designed for channel-to-channel isolated industrial applications in factory automation, process automation, and motor control. The AD5758 is ADI’s lowest power industrial DAC.
The AD5758’s 5.0 x 5.0mm size creates the smallest footprint in the industry, claims Analog Devices. Its robust construction requires fewer external protection components, supporting smaller, lower-cost designs. The DAC is engineered with advanced diagnostics that provide visibility to system performance for higher reliability and planned maintenance schedules. The AD5758 also includes output fault protection circuits to safeguard the DAC in the event of a mis-wiring incident.
