DAC3152/62 Dual Channel DACs

Texas Instruments' dual-channel, 10-bit, 500 MSPS digital-to-analog converters (DACs)

Texas Instruments' DAC31xx series is a low-power, low-latency, high-dynamic-range, dual-channel, 10-/12-bit, pin-compatible family of digital-to-analog converters (DACs) with sample rates as high as 500 MSPS.

The device simplicity (no software required), low latency, and low power simplify the design of complex systems. The DACs interface seamlessly with the high-performance TRF370333 analog quadrature modulator for direct upconversion architectures.

Digital data for both DAC channels is interleaved through a single LVDS data bus with on-chip termination. The high input rate of the devices allows the processing of wide-bandwidth signals. DAC3152/62 Datasheet

DAC3152EVM	296-30216-ND	The DAC31x2EVM includes the TRF3703-33 quadrature modulator to facilitate measuring the output signals at a desired RF frequency. The EVM also includes the CDCP1803 clock buffer that distributes the clocks to the DAC, as well as a pattern generator. This EVM is ideally suited for mating with the TSW3100 pattern generation card for evaluating QAM, WCDMA, LTE, or other high-performance modulation schemes.
