DAC REFOUT Current

Hi friends,

I am using AD768ARZ (DAC) in my project.

i am generating Bipolar  ±2.5 V signal directly from DAC output (according to figure 25 reference in datasheet) .

i am drawing 2.5mA current for offset voltage for bipolar signal and 5mA of current for IREFIN .

I am also sharing 16 bit digital data between same DAC chips with seperate clock signal . Clock signal acts as control signal to select the particular DAC.i have enclosed the image of my design.

Please let me know ,Is thre any issuse with above configuration.

I am new to analog design,Please give me any tips and guidelines for AD768ARZ.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Tarak,

I’m   sorry, this is the EngineerZone community for Analog  Microcontrollers   and we doesn’t currently provide a support community  for

your particular Analog Devices product.

To    get support on this product, I would suggest submitting your question    to the Analog Devices support team in your region.  You can find the    appropriate support contact on our website at: https://www.analog.com/support under "Linear and Data Converters"

Thanks for understanding,

MMA
