Each channel has two modes of operation: (a) Normal
mode where analog voltage is available and (b)
Power-Down mode which turns off most of the internal
circuits for power savings.
The user can select the operating mode of each
channel individually by setting the Power-Down
selection bits (PD1 and PD0). For example, the user
can select channel A for normal mode while selecting
all other channels for power-down mode.
See Section 5.6 “Write Commands for DAC Regis-
ters and EEPROM” for more details on the writing the
power-down bits.
Most of the internal circuit in the powered down chan-
nel are turned off. However, the internal voltage refer-
ence circuit is not affected by the Power-Down mode.
The internal voltage reference circuit is turned off only
if all channels select external reference (V

When the DAC operation mode is changed from the
Power-Down to normal mode, there will be a time delay
until the analog output is available. Typical time delay
for the output voltage is approximately 4.5 μs. This time
delay is measured from the acknowledge pulse of the
