What are the key features of TLC7226ING4?

  • 4 independent 8-bit voltage-output DAC channels in a single 20-pin DIP package for multi-channel analog generation without multiple ICs
  • Parallel bus interface allows simultaneous or sequential update of all 4 DAC channels with simple microcontroller I/O writes
  • Voltage-output architecture with 256-step resolution per channel simplifies interface to analog actuators, attenuators, and programmable reference circuits

What is TLC7226ING4 used for?

TLC7226ING4 is used in industrial process control, programmable power supplies, and calibration equipment where up to 4 independent 8-bit analog voltages must be generated under microcontroller control. It suits audio mixing consoles, lab instruments, and motor-drive test fixtures that need simultaneous multi-channel D/A conversion without adding multiple single-channel DAC chips. The 20-pin DIP package also simplifies prototyping and through-hole production assembly for low-volume industrial products.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many DAC channels does TLC7226ING4 provide, and what is the resolution of each?

TLC7226ING4 integrates 4 independent voltage-output DAC channels, each with 8-bit resolution providing 256 discrete output levels. The quad-channel architecture allows a single 20-pin DIP device to replace four separate single-channel 8-bit DACs, reducing board component count and simplifying multi-channel analog control firmware.

Which interface does TLC7226ING4 use, and how does that simplify microcontroller integration?

TLC7226ING4 uses a parallel bus interface compatible with standard 8-bit microcontroller data buses. Writing an 8-bit value to the selected channel takes a single bus cycle without serial clock synchronization delays, which suits latency-sensitive waveform generation tasks requiring simultaneous update of 4 analog outputs at audio or control loop rates.

For a programmable bench power supply, what voltage step size does TLC7226ING4 provide?

With 8-bit resolution (256 steps) and a reference voltage of 5 V, each TLC7226ING4 DAC channel produces approximately 19.6 mV per LSB step. This granularity is sufficient for programmable output setpoints in benchtop supply designs requiring 20 mV or coarser adjustment, and it can be improved by scaling the reference below 5 V for finer control over a narrower output range.

Does TLC7226ING4 suit through-hole prototyping, and in which package is it available?

Yes, TLC7226ING4 is available in a 20-pin DIP through-hole package with 2.54 mm pitch, the most breadboard-friendly format for prototyping and low-volume industrial assembly. The 20 pins provide 4 DAC outputs, a shared reference input, power supply, and parallel data bus connections, making it straightforward to hand-solder and test on a development board.
