DAC60508ZRTET

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The DAC60508ZRTET is a true 12-bit, 8-channel digital-to-analog converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features an R-2R architecture with buffered voltage outputs and supports SPI interfaces. The device operates on analog supply voltages from 2.7 V to 5.5 V and digital supplies from 1.7 V to 5.5 V. Key performance metrics include a settling time of 5 µs, a sampling rate of 1 MS/s, and power consumption of 33 mW. Nonlinearity specifications are ±0.5 LSB for both DNL and INL, with a gain error of 0.14% FSR. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C in a 16-WQFN package.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Integrated reset function allows channels to return to mid-scale output levels upon initialization or command.
• Compact WQFN-16 packaging facilitates space-constrained board layouts while maintaining thermal performance.
• Dual power supply design separates analog and digital domains to minimize noise coupling.

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Industrial process control systems requiring multi-channel signal generation
• Portable instrumentation utilizing low-power voltage references
• Automotive sensor interface circuits operating in extended temperature ranges

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix ZRTET against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm the tape-and-reel quantity and moisture sensitivity level. Ensure compatibility with RoHS3 standards if required by your manufacturing environment. Cross-reference the distributor's part number with the manufacturer's datasheet to validate the exact package dimensions and pinout configuration before finalizing procurement orders.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when eight independent 12-bit outputs are necessary within a single integrated circuit. The R-2R architecture provides consistent performance across the full voltage range. Consider the 16-WQFN footprint for assembly constraints. Verify that the SPI interface speed requirements align with the system clock capabilities. Evaluate the 5 mA operating current against total system power budgets.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This device belongs to the DAC60508 family, which includes variants like the DAC60508MCYZFT and DAC60508MRTET. These parts share core electrical characteristics but differ in packaging types such as DSBGA or standard WQFN configurations. The Z-series designation typically indicates specific commercial grade or packaging variations within the broader product line.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

The DAC60508MCRTET is listed as a parameter-equivalent alternative. Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions between the ZRTET and MCRTET variants before substitution. Check datasheets for any differences in gain error or nonlinearity specifications that might affect precision requirements.
