AK9844A
4Kbit EEPROM with 4ch 8bit D/A Converter
General Description
The AK9844A includes 4 channel, 8-bit D/A converters with on-chip output buffer amps and it is
capable to store the input digital data of each D/A converter by on-chip non-volatile CMOS
EEPROM. The AK9844A is optimally designed for various circuit adjustments for consumer and
industrial equipments and it is ideally suited for replacing mechanical trimmers.
