TriQuint's TQ6122 GIGADAC鈩?is a monolithic, 8-bit digital-to-analog
converter capable of conversion rates to at least 1000 Megasamples/
second. The TQ6122 DAC may be used for display generation, waveform
and signal synthesis, and video signal reconstruction. The TQ6122 features
a 2:1 data MUX at the input for ease of interface and offers synchronous
blanking capability for maximum ease of use in video applications. It drives
complementary 1 V peak-to-peak swings into 50-ohm loads; on-chip 50-
ohm reverse terminations provide extremely fast settling time.
Due to the inherently high speed of TriQuint's one-micron gate
Enhancement / Depletion-mode gallium arsenide process, the TQ6122
offers guaranteed operation at clock rates of 1000 MHz, with typical room
temperature conversion rates of 1.5 Gs/s without multiplexing and 1.3 Gs/s
when using multiplexed inputs. The TQ6122 features output rise and fall
times of 500 ps (10% 鈥?90%), symmetric complementary output transitions,
and glitch impulse values less than 10 pV/sec. When used for sine wave
synthesis, typical spurious and harmonic free dynamic range is
鈮?5
dBc.
The TQ6122 may be retrofitted into designs which currently use TriQuint's
TQ6111, 2, 3, 4M DACs with minimal changes to power supply levels and
input and output connections. The part is available in a 44-pin ceramic
package or as unpackaged die.
