Working Principles

The TLV5616CD is a digital-to-analog converter that converts digital signals into corresponding analog voltages. It utilizes a 12-bit resolution to provide high precision in generating analog outputs. The IC operates by receiving serial digital data through the DIN pin, which is then converted into an analog voltage based on the applied reference voltage (VREF). The converted analog voltage is available at the OUT pin.
