DESCRIPTION
LTC2635: Quad12-Bit I2C
VOUT DAC with Internal Reference
Demonstration circuit DC1593A features the LTC2635
Quad 12-bit DAC. This device has an integrated, high
accuracy, low-drift reference. It has a rail-to-rail output buf-
fer and is guaranteed monotonic. This DAC communicates
through a simple I2C compatible interface.

QUICK START PROCEDURE
Connect DC1593A to a DC590 USB serial controller using
the supplied 14 conductor ribbon cable. Connect DC590
to a host PC with a standard USB A/B cable. Run the
evaluation software supplied with DC590 or download it
from www.linear.com. The correct control panel will be
loaded automatically. Additional software documentation
is available from the Help menu item, as features may be
added periodically.

Analog Connections
DAC outputs – The four DAC outputs from the LTC2635
are brought out to turrets labeled VOUTA through VOUTD.
These may be connected to external instruments or other
circuitry.
NOTE: DAC outputs are not in alphabetical order on the
circuit board.
VREF – The Ref turret is connected directly to the reference
terminals of the LTC2635. When the integrated reference
is being used, the reference voltage may be monitored
QUICK START PROCEDURE
at this point. An external reference may also be applied
to this turret after changing the setting in the QuikEval
software, to external.
Grounding and Power Connections
Power (VCC) – Normally DC1593A is powered by the DC590
controller. VCC can be supplied to this turret, however
the power supply on DC590 must be disabled! Refer to
DC590 Quick Start Guide for more details on this mode
of operation.
Grounding – Ground turrets as well as two grounding
strips are provided.
