4.0

GENERAL OVERVIEW

The MCP4802, MCP4812 and MCP4822 are dual

voltage output 8-bit, 10-bit and 12-bit DAC devices,

respectively. These devices include rail-to-rail output

amplifiers, internal voltage reference, shutdown and

reset-management circuitry. The devices use an SPI

serial communication interface and operate with a sin-

gle supply voltage from 2.7V to 5.5V.

The DAC input coding of these devices is straight

binary. Equation 4-1 shows the DAC analog output

voltage calculation.

EQUATION 4-1:

ANALOG OUTPUT

VOLTAGE (VOUT)

The ideal output range of each device is:

• MCP4802 (n = 8)

(a) 0.0V to 255/256 * 2.048V when gain setting = 1x.

(b) 0.0V to 255/256 * 4.096V when gain setting = 2x.

• MCP4812 (n = 10)

(a) 0.0V to 1023/1024 * 2.048V when gain setting = 1x.

(b) 0.0V to 1023/1024 * 4.096V when gain setting = 2x.

• MCP4822 (n = 12)

(a) 0.0V to 4095/4096 * 2.048V when gain setting = 1x.

(b) 0.0V to 4095/4096 * 4.096V when gain setting = 2x.

1 LSb is the ideal voltage difference between two

successive

codes.

calculation of each device.

4.0.1

INL ACCURACY

Integral Non-Linearity (INL) error for these devices is

the maximum deviation between an actual code transi-

tion point and its corresponding ideal transition point

once offset and gain errors have been removed. The

two end points method (from 0x000 to 0xFFF) is used

for the calculation. Figure 4-1 shows the details.

A positive INL error represents transition(s) later than

ideal. A negative INL error represents transition(s)

earlier than ideal.

Example for INL Error.
