Overview
The DAC7760 (12-bit) and DAC8760 (16-bit) are precision digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The output
can be configured to produce a current in output ranges of 0 mA to 20 mA, 4 mA to 20 mA, and 4 mA to
24 mA. Both devices can also be configured to have voltage output ranges of 0 V to 5 V, 0 V to 10 V, ±5
V, and ±10 V. The DAC7750 (12-bit) and DAC8750 (16-bit) feature current outputs only. All of these
devices feature configurable slew rates, power-on reset functions, a highway addressable remote
transducer (HART) signal interface, a watchdog timer, error checking, external and internal voltage
references, and a common hardware fault output.
This EVM is designed to demonstrate capability of the DAC8760 family of products to survive harsh
industrial environments when paired with the appropriate protection circuitry on the analog front-end.
