• The MCP4802/4812/4822 devices are dual 8-bit, 10-bit
and 12-bit buffered voltage output Digital-to-Analog
Converters (DACs), respectively. The devices operate
from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply with SPI compatible
Serial Peripheral Interface.
The devices have a high precision internal voltage
reference (VREF = 2.048V). The user can configure the
full-scale range of the device to be 2.048V or 4.096V by
setting the Gain Selection Option bit (gain of 1 of 2).
Each DAC channel can be operated in Active or
Shutdown mode individually by setting the Configuration
register bits. In Shutdown mode, most of the internal
circuits in the shutdown channel are turned off for power
savings and the output amplifier is configured to present
a known high resistance output load (500 k typical. …
