DAC712UBG4

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The DAC712UBG4 is a discontinued 12-bit digital-to-analog converter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features four independent output channels and utilizes an R-2R architecture with buffered voltage outputs. The device operates on dual analog and digital supplies ranging from ±14.25V to ±15.75V. It communicates via an SPI interface and achieves a typical settling time of 10µs. Integral nonlinearity and differential nonlinearity are specified at a maximum of ±1 LSB. The component is housed in a 16-SOIC package and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

This specific part number is obsolete and no longer in production. Verification of availability requires checking authorized distributors for remaining stock or identifying approved replacement components. Designers must confirm that substitute devices meet all original electrical specifications, pinout compatibility, and thermal requirements before implementation.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Engineers should evaluate the DAC7714UB as a parameter-equivalent alternative within the same family. Selection criteria must focus on matching the 12-bit resolution, four-channel count, and supply voltage ranges. Verify that the replacement package matches the 16-SOIC footprint and that the new component's settling time and linearity specs satisfy the system design constraints.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

The DAC712UBG4 belongs to the broader DAC77xx series of precision digital-to-analog converters. This series is characterized by high accuracy and multiple output channels designed for demanding industrial applications. The 'G4' suffix indicates RoHS compliance and lead-free construction, adhering to environmental standards while maintaining the performance characteristics of the base DAC7715 model.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitutes include the DAC7714UB and DAC7715UB. These parts offer parameter equivalence and serve as direct replacements for the discontinued DAC712UBG4.
