DAC5311IDCKT

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The DAC5311IDCKT is an 8-bit, single-channel digital-to-analog converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V for both analog and digital domains. The device features a resistor-string architecture with a sampling rate of 83 kS/s and a typical settling time of 6 µs. It provides a buffered voltage output and communicates via an SPI interface. Operating temperatures span from -40°C to +125°C. Power consumption is rated at 180 µA during operation, with a power dissipation of 990 µW. The component is housed in a compact SC-70-6 surface-mount package.

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix IDCKT against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm packaging details such as reel size or tape specifications. Ensure the order matches the required temperature grade and pin configuration. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor listings to validate authenticity and current production status before finalizing procurement.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8-bit resolution is sufficient for the application requirements. Consider the DAC6311 or DAC7311 if higher resolution (10-bit or 12-bit) is needed while maintaining pin compatibility. Evaluate the power budget carefully, as the quiescent current impacts overall system efficiency in portable designs. Confirm that the SPI interface timing meets the microcontroller or DSP controller specifications.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This device belongs to the DACx311 family of low-power, single-channel DACs from Texas Instruments. The series includes variants with different resolutions, such as the 10-bit DAC6311 and 12-bit DAC7311, which share pinouts and functional characteristics. This family is designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring small footprints and low energy consumption.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

The DAC5311IDCKR is a compatible alternative within the same series, differing primarily in packaging format rather than electrical performance. Verify that any substitute maintains the SC-70-6 footprint and identical pinout to ensure direct board replacement without redesign.
