Description
LTC2631
Single 12-/10-/8-Bit I2C
VOUT DACs with Integrated
10ppm/°C Reference
Demonstration circuit 1332B features the LT C
®
2631, a
12-bit I2C DAC with 1LSB (max) INL error. This device
establishes a new benchmark for size and integration of
12-bit DACs and onboard reference.
The DC1332B may be connected directly to the target
application’s analog signals while using the DC590 USB
serial controller board and supplied software to measure L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and

performance. After evaluating with Linear Technology’s
software, the digital signals can be connected to the end
application’s processor/controller for development of the
serial interface.

Quick start proceDure
1. ConnecttheDC1332BtoaDC590USBserialcontroller
using the supplied 14-conductor ribbon cable.
2. Connect the DC590 to the host PC with a standard
USB A/B cable.
3. Run the QuikEval™ evaluation software supplied
with the DC590 or download it from:
www.linear.com/software. The correct program will
be loaded automatically.
Options are available to display the DAC output in voltage,
hex code, or decimal count. Additionally, the reference
voltage may be changed to reflect an actual measured
value, such that the output voltage matches the theoreti-
cal output voltage. The reference mode may be changed
from internal reference to external reference.
Features may be periodically added to the software. See
the software’s help menu for the latest information.

JUMPERS
CA0: This sets the I2C address of the LTC2631. These
should be set to 1 (VCC) by default.
CA1/REF_SEL: On the B and D versions of the demo board,
this is used to determine the I2C address of the LTC2631.
On the A and C versions of the demo board, this is used
to determine the reference input.
ANALOG CONNECTIONS
DAC outputs are provided on the row of turret posts at
the edge of the board.
GROUNDING AND POWER CONNECTIONS
Power (VCC): Normally, the DC1332B is powered by the
DC590 controller. VCC can be supplied to the 5V turret,
howeverthe power supply on the DC590 must be disabled!
Refer to the DC590 Quick Start Guide for more details on
this mode of operation.
Grounding: Three ground posts are provided.
