AD8460BSVZ

Specialized ICS Overview

The AD8460BSVZ is a high-voltage, high-current arbitrary waveform generator featuring an integrated 14-bit high-speed DAC. It delivers up to ±1 A continuous output current and ±40 V swing into capacitive loads with a slew rate of ≥1800 V/µs. The device operates on dual supplies from ±12 V to ±55 V and a single 5 V supply. Key electrical parameters include a large signal bandwidth of 1 MHz and PSRR up to 106 dB. It includes programmable fault monitoring for current, voltage, and temperature.

• High output capability: ±1 A continuous current and ±40 V output voltage range
• Extensive digital diagnostics with programmable overcurrent, overvoltage, and thermal protection
• Unlimited capacitive load drive enabled via external compensation pins

Specialized ICS Applications

• Automatic test equipment (ATE)
• Display panel formation and testing
• Piezo drivers
• Programmable power supplies

Specialized ICS Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm package type and reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier or datasheet revision history before procurement.

Specialized ICS Selection Notes

Ensure the application requires high-voltage bipolar supplies within the ±12 V to ±55 V range. Verify that the PCB design accommodates the 80-lead TQFP exposed pad for adequate thermal dissipation, as junction temperature significantly impacts performance limits.
