I want to use each channel of the AD9116 as a completly separate DAC.
As far as i understand the datasheet, this is possible.
Or are they bounded together some how?
Please clarify, thanx

Hi stefaniecg ,
Thank you for your interest in AD9116. We will look into this and get back to you.
Best regards,

JMMina thanx, looking forward to hear back from you
Hello,
Yes..............each DACs can be loaded with its own unique data pattern with I data going to the I DAC and Q data going to the Q DAC.
thank you so much for letting me know.
An extra question, the auxiliary DACs included, are these also independent or have a dependency with the I/Q channels?
The two Aux DACs are associated with the I and Q DAC channels respectively and can be set independently via SPI registers as shown below.
