Description for the DAC8820EVM
The DAC8820EVM is a full-featured evaluation board featuring either the DAC8806 or the DAC8820 devices. These devices are 14-bit and 16-bit, multiplying DACs with a microprocessor and TMS320 DSP-compatible parallel interface. The data bits are double-buffered so that the output can be updated asynchronously using the LDAC pin. Developed for a wide range of supply voltages, these DACs can be operated from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The EVM ships with either the DAC8806 (DAC8806EVM) or the DAC8820 (DAC8820EVM) device installed. The chip select function, set to the installed device, is decoded allowing the EVM user to use up to three EVMs together.
