The LTC8043 is a serial-input 12-bit multiplying digital-to-analog converter (DAC). It is a superior pin compatible replacement for the DAC-8043. Improvements include better accuracy, better stability over temperature and supply variations, lower sensitivity to output amplifier offset, tighter timing specifications and lower output capacitance.An easy-to-use 3-wire serial interface is well-suited to remote or isolated applicationsThe LTC8043 is extremely versatile. It can be used for 2-quadrant and 4-quadrant multiplying, programmable gain and single supply applications, such as noninverting voltage output mode.Parts are available in 8-pin SO and PDIP packages and are specified over the extended industrial temperature range, 40°C to 85°C. * Improved direct replacement for DAC-8043 and MAX543 * SO-8 package with standard pinout * DNL and INL over temperature: ±0.5LSB * Easy, fast and flexible serial interface * ±1LSB maximum gain error * 4-Quadrant multiplication * Low power consumption * Low cost * Operating temp.: -40 to +85°C * For full details please refer to data sheet
