NOTE 1: Monotonic over full temperature range.
NOTE 2:The internal reference requires a 1µF stabilising capacitor between VREF OUT and 0V and a 390Ω resistor, RREF,
between VCC and VREF OUT.
INTRODUCTION
The ZN426 is an 8-bit D-A converter. It contains an
advanced design of R-2R ladder network and an array of
precision bipolar switches plus a 2.5V precision voltage
reference on a single monolithic chip.
The special design of the ladder network results in full
8-bit accuracy using normal defused resistors.
The use of on-chip voltage reference is pin optional to
retain flexibility. An external fixed or varying reference may
therefore be substituted. In this case there is no need to
supply power to the internal reference so RREF and CREF
can be omitted.
