Description

LTC2607

16-Bit Dual Rail-to-Rail DAC

Demonstration circuit 934A features the LTC®2607 dual

16-bit DAC. This device establishes a new board-density

benchmark for 16-bit DACs and advances performance

standards for output drive, load regulation, and crosstalk

in single supply, voltage-output DACs.
