DAC6578SRGET

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The DAC6578SRGET is an octal, 10-bit digital-to-analog converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features eight buffered voltage outputs and operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7 V to 5.5 V for both analog and digital domains. The device utilizes a 2-Wire I2C compatible interface with four addressable pins. Key performance metrics include a settling time of 12 µs, a sampling rate of 55.55 kS/s, and low power consumption of 3.4 mW at 3.3 V. Integral nonlinearity (INL) is specified at ±0.25 LSB, while differential nonlinearity (DNL) is ±0.03 LSB. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is housed in a 24-pin VQFN package.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Octal architecture providing eight independent 10-bit channels with integrated output buffers
• Ultra-low glitch impulse characteristic designed to minimize transient spikes during code transitions
• I2C-compatible serial interface supporting multiple device addressing on a single bus
• Power-down mode capability allowing significant current reduction when the device is inactive

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Process control systems requiring multi-channel signal generation
• Portable instrumentation utilizing battery-powered architectures
• Automotive sensor interfaces operating under extended temperature conditions
• Data acquisition systems needing calibrated voltage references

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GET' confirms the VQFN-24 package and tape-and-reel shipping configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) requirements for your assembly process. Ensure the I2C address pins are correctly configured for your system topology to avoid bus conflicts.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when eight simultaneous low-resolution conversions are required within a compact footprint. Compare against the DAC7578 if higher 12-bit resolution is necessary, or the DAC5578 for 8-bit applications. Consider the DAC6578SPW variant if a TSSOP-16 package is preferred over the VQFN form factor.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the DAC6578 family of octal DACs from Texas Instruments. It shares architectural similarities with the DAC5578 and DAC7578, differing primarily in resolution and noise specifications. The SRGET designation indicates a specific surface-mount package and reel quantity distinct from tube-packaged alternatives like the SPW series.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible substitutes within the same family include the DAC5578SRGET and DAC7578SRGET. Verify that the alternative resolution meets system accuracy requirements. Cross-reference datasheets for any differences in glitch energy or power-down current characteristics.
