DAC1282: DAC1282 EVM availability

Part Number: DAC1282
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DAC9881, ADS1282

Is There is DAC1282 Evaluation Board for testing? I read in ftp.ti.com/.../DAC1282 EVM Users Guide.pdf that DAC1282 is part of the ADC1282 EVM but I can't find it on the board schem.

Someone can clear the fog?

Thanks

Bar.

  • Hi Bar,

    We never officially released an EVM for the DAC1282, so no there is not an EVM available for this device.

    Are you looking for a precision DAC?
    If so, I would like to point out that the DAC1282 often comes up because of its resolution, but in practice it is quite noisy. Its use case is generally limited to being a low-distortion test DAC for the ADS1282; therefore, I would encourage you to look at the DAC9881 for most precision applications.

    Best regards,
    Chris
  • Thanks Chris for your answer.

    Our need is exactly what you say "to check the ADC1282. Because of that we need all ready build DAC EVM with software for test no to waist time to build one. And as I see in the article there is a GUI for controlling the DAC. If so on what board and which software it is use? As I read in the ADC1282 user guide the DAC1282 is on its board but I can't find it in the schem of the board.

    Regards

    Bar.

  • Hi Bar,

    I believe the "EVM" was wasn't an actual EVM but was the original characterization PCB.

    If I can find you an example schematic of the DAC1282 would that be helpful?

    Best regards,
    Chris
  • No Chris.

    We just want to evaluate the ADC, and use all ready board. We don't have time to build a board and make it compatible for working with the PC.

    Thanks

    Bar.
