Microchip Technology MCP4706, MCP4716, & MCP4726 Single-Channel DACs
Microchip Technology MCP4706, MCP4716, and MCP4726 Single-Channel DACs (Digital-to-Analog converters) feature buffered 8-, 10-, and 12-bit voltage output options and integrated EEPROM. The MCP4706, MCP4716, and MCP4726 DACs are ideal for consumer and industrial applications, including wireless microphones and mp3-player accessories as well as motor control, flow measurement, temperature control, and light control. Integrated EEPROM enables DAC settings to be recalled at power up for added system flexibility. The choice of 8-, 10- or 12-bit resolution provides flexibility with regard to design requirements and cost. These devices also provide low power consumption of 210mA for extended battery life.
