Frequently Asked Questions
What is the resolution and channel count of the DAC8162SDGST?
The DAC8162SDGST provides 16-bit resolution across two independent voltage-output channels, delivering a theoretical resolution of 65,536 steps. Both channels can be updated simultaneously or independently via the SPI interface, making it ideal for applications requiring high-precision dual-channel analog output.
What is the supply voltage and power consumption of the DAC8162SDGST?
The DAC8162SDGST operates from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply rail with a typical supply current of just 1.5 mA per channel, enabling low-power operation. The integrated 2.5V internal reference (2 ppm/°C drift) eliminates the need for an external reference in most designs, further simplifying board layout.
What are suitable alternatives to the DAC8162SDGST?
Compatible alternatives include the DAC7162S (14-bit dual-channel variant in the same MSOP-10 footprint), the DAC8552 (16-bit dual-channel DAC in MSOP-8 with I²C interface), and the AD5663R from Analog Devices (16-bit dual-channel, I²C, SOT-23 package). All offer similar accuracy and pinout or functional compatibility.
What package does the DAC8162SDGST use and what are its operating temperature limits?
The DAC8162SDGST is housed in a 10-pin MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package) with a 0.5 mm pitch, suitable for compact PCB designs. It is rated for an industrial temperature range of –40°C to +105°C, making it appropriate for harsh industrial and automotive-adjacent environments.
Is the DAC8162SDGST RoHS compliant and what is its lifecycle status?
Yes, the DAC8162SDGST is fully RoHS compliant and lead-free. Texas Instruments lists the device as active and in production, with no end-of-life or NRND designation. It is available for immediate order with pricing starting at $9.01 per unit for quantities of 10 and dropping to $5.41 per unit at 10,000 pieces.
