DAC39RFS10EFACK

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The DAC39RFS10EFACK is a single-channel, 16-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Texas Instruments. It supports maximum input data rates of 20.48 GSPS in single-channel mode and 10.24 GSPS in dual-channel configurations. The device features an analog output bandwidth of 12 GHz and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Power supply requirements include VDDA18 at 1.71V–1.89V and VEEAM18 at -1.89V to -1.71V. It utilizes a JESD204B/C interface with up to 16 lanes at 12.8Gbps and integrates four digital up-converters (DUCs). The component is housed in a 256-ball FCBGA package measuring 17mm x 17mm.

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ACK' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm package type and pinout compatibility. Ensure that the ordering information matches the exact revision level required for the design. Cross-reference the datasheet version to validate all electrical specifications before finalizing procurement decisions.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-speed single-channel RF signal generation. Consider the 12 GHz output bandwidth and 16-bit resolution when designing systems operating in C-band or X-band frequencies. Evaluate the power consumption characteristics and thermal management requirements associated with the FCBGA-256 package for optimal system performance.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the DAC39RF10EF family, which includes both dual-channel (DAC39RF10EF) and single-channel (DAC39RFS10EF) variants. The 'EF' suffix denotes enhanced features such as JESD204C support and specific performance optimizations compared to earlier generations. The 'ACK' suffix specifically identifies the 256-ball FCBGA package configuration used in this single-channel variant.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

The DAC39RF10EF serves as the dual-channel counterpart within the same family. For radiation-tolerant applications, consider the DAC39RFS10-SEP or DAC39RFS10-SP variants. Verify pinout and register compatibility when substituting with other members of the DAC39 series.
