D/A converter specification

The DAC0800 is a monolithic 8-bit high-speed current output digital to


analog converter (DAC) featuring typical setting times of 100ns. When used as a
multiplying DAC monotonic performance over a 40 to 1 reference current range is
possible. The DAC0800 also features high compliance complementary current
outputs to allow differential output voltage of 20 Vpp with simple resistor loads as
shown in the figure below

D/A converter interface

The DAC0800 in connected to the 8086 through the 8255 interface, the data
(8bit) is sent from the 8086 to the 8255 which in turn sends this data through port C
to the DAC connected to it, the DAC convert each digital value to a analog value,
the analog output from the DAC in a current quantity, This current is converted to
voltage using OPAMP based current-to-voltage converter, The voltage output of
OPAMP is connected to SG, the SG output is and input to the LM3915 level meter
circuit which passes this value to the connected 10 LEDs, each LED is activated
with a specific threshold voltage, the range of the threshold voltage and the it’s
corresponding LED, as shown in following table
