Its working principle is fairly straightforward. The DAC8512FSZ-REEL receives an input signal in digital form, which it then converts into an analog output signal according to its specifications. This type of conversion is often used in audio and video systems, as the digital signal is converted into the analog signal that is necessary for the speakers and other components.The rough output of the DAC8512FSZ-REEL depends primarily on the reference voltage provided and the resolution that is selected. Typically, the reference voltage is set to 2.5V, and then the resolution is selected. The DAC8512FSZ-REEL can perform resolutions of 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 bits. The resolution will then determine the number of unique output values available, which is equal to 2^resolution. The output voltage of the DAC8512FSZ-REEL will vary depending on the binary inputs. The way the voltage is calculated is based on the formula Vout = Vref x FS/2^n where Vref is the reference voltage, FS is the full-scale output voltage, and n is the resolution in bits.The DAC8512FSZ-REEL also features an auto-zero capability. This means that it is able to recalibrate itself every few seconds, allowing for more accurate output signals with minimal drift. Overall, the DAC8512FSZ-REEL is a powerful, accurate, and low power digital-to-analog converter available for a variety of applications.
