Boardoza TPC2160 16-Bit Unipolar DAC Breakout Board
Boardoza TPC2160 is a low-power, high-performance 16-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) breakout board designed for applications demanding extreme precision and minimal noise. This board is engineered for high-fidelity signal generation, offering full 16-bit performance with a remarkable ±1 LSB integral nonlinearity (INL).
Configured for unipolar output mode with an onboard precision 3.0V reference voltage, the Boardoza TPC2160 provides a clean 0V to 3.0V analog swing. While most standard DACs struggle with "glitch" energy during code transitions, this board features a low-glitch architecture (10 nV-sec), making it ideal for high-purity wave generation and precision in applications such as industrial control systems.

Key Features
- True 16-Bit Precision: Delivers high-accuracy output with ±1 LSB INL and DNL, ensuring linear and predictable analog signals.
- High-Speed SPI Interface: Supports clock speeds up to 50 MHz, allowing for rapid updates and high-bandwidth signal processing.
- Clean Signal Output: Features a 10 nV/Hz noise density and low glitch energy, providing professional-grade signal purity.
- Rapid Settling Time: Achieves a 1 μs settling time, enabling fast and responsive analog control loops.
