Smallest Pin Compatible Quad 16-Bit DAC:
LTC2604: 16-Bits
LTC2614: 14-Bits
LTC2624: 12-Bits
Guaranteed 16-Bit Monotonic Over Temperature
Separate Reference Inputs for each DAC
Wide 2.5V to 5.5V Supply Range
Low Power Operation: 250μA per DAC at 3V
Individual DAC Power-Down to 1μA, Max
Ultralow Crosstalk Between DACs (<5μV)
High Rail-to-Rail Output Drive (±15mA)
Double Buffered Digital Inputs
LTC2604-1/LTC2614-1/LTC2624-1: Power-On Reset
to Midscale
16-Lead Narrow SSOP Package
The LTC
®
2604/LTC2614/LTC2624 are quad 16-,14- and
12-bit 2.5V to 5.5V rail-to-rail voltage output DACs in
16-lead narrow SSOP packages. These parts have sepa-
rate reference inputs for each DAC. They have built-in
high performance output buffers and are guaranteed
monotonic.
These parts establish advanced performance standards
for output drive, crosstalk and load regulation in single-
supply, voltage output multiples.
The parts use a simple SPI/MICROWIRE
TM
compatible
3-wire serial interface which can be operated at clock
rates up to 50MHz. Daisy-chain capability and a hardware
CLR function are included.
The LTC2604/LTC2614/LTC2624 incorporate a power-
on reset circuit. During power-up, the voltage outputs
rise less than 10mV above zero scale; and after power-up,
they stay at zero scale until a valid write and update take
place. The power-on reset circuit resets the LTC2604-1/
LTC2614-1/LTC2624-1 to midscale. The voltage outputs
stay at midscale until a valid write and update take place.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
Linearity and monotonicity are defined from code k
L
to code
2
N
– 1, where N is the resolution and k
L
is given by k
L
= 0.016(2

REF
),
rounded to the nearest whole code. For V
REF
= 4.096V and N = 16,
k
L
= 256, linearity is defined from code 256 to code 65,535.

Note 4:
DC crosstalk is measured with V
