BiRa Systems 5408 DAC

The Model 5408 is a single-width module for generating 8 output voltages. The standard output is 0 to 10 volts at 5mA maximum. A 12 bit register is provided for each channel. Each register can be written and read from the dataway. Strap options are provided so that the output range of each channel can be changed in the field to 0 to +5 volts, +/-10 Volts, +/-5 Volts, or +/-2.5 volts, independent of the setting of the other channels. The data is 2's complementary and right justified (the LSB is written from the Dataway line W1). Settling time of the output to within 1/2 LSB is less than 4 usec. The non-linearity is less than +/- 1/2 LSB. The output impedance is less than 50m ohms and the outputs are short circuit proof. Adjustments are provided for the zero and gain of each channel. Outputs go to the auxiliary 36 pin edge connector.
Optional front panel connectors are available.
