DAC6573IPWR

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The DAC6573IPWR is a quad-channel, 10-bit digital-to-analog converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a resistor-string architecture with buffered voltage outputs and an I2C serial interface. The device operates on analog and digital supply voltages ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V. Key performance specifications include a settling time of 9µs (typical) and a sampling rate of 188 kS/s. Linearity errors are specified as ±0.5 LSB for INL and ±0.1 LSB for DNL. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and is housed in a 16-TSSOP package.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent 10-bit DAC channels with buffered voltage outputs for direct drive capability.
• Utilizes a cost-optimized resistor-string architecture to achieve low power consumption suitable for battery-operated systems.
• Supports standard I2C two-wire serial communication interface for simplified microcontroller connectivity.

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Portable instrumentation requiring multi-channel signal generation
• Battery-powered data acquisition systems
• Industrial process control loops

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure correct packaging and temperature grade. Confirm that the I2C address configuration meets system requirements before procurement. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly. Ensure ESD handling procedures are followed during storage and installation.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad-channel solution is required with moderate resolution and low power constraints. Compare settling time and linearity specifications against application needs. Consider the TSSOP-16 package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility. Evaluate alternative channel counts or resolutions if higher precision or speed is necessary.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the DAC657x family of low-power, 10-bit DACs from Texas Instruments. It shares architectural similarities with single-channel variants like the DAC6571 and octal versions like the DAC6578. The IPWR suffix indicates a specific tape-and-reel packaging format within the industrial temperature grade product line.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include DAC6573IPW. Verify pinout and electrical characteristics match before substitution. Cross-reference with DAC6578 for higher channel count needs or DAC6571 for single-channel applications.
