AFE10004: Buffer Amp High and Normal Current Drive Capabilities?

Part Number: AFE10004


Hello, 

The Datasheet reports that the output buffers can support a load current of up to 100mA. This is said for a number of up to 2 channels. 

Does this mean that only two DACs can be operational at a time (e.g Out 1 and Out 2)? Can each support 100mA or is the 100mA shared? 

Best, 

Mike 

  • Hi Mike,

    The current drive is specific for each individual DAC output. Each output can support up to 100mA simultaneously. This combined current flows through the VCC/VSS power rails, so ensure you have enough current capability from your supplies.

    Thanks,
    Erin
