MCP47FEB01A2-E/ST

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MCP47FEB01A2-E/ST is a single-channel, 8-bit buffered voltage output Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) featuring nonvolatile EEPROM memory and an I²C serial interface. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V, providing rail-to-rail output with a typical settling time of 6 µs. The device supports Standard (100 kbps), Fast (400 kbps), and High-Speed (up to 3.4 Mbps) communication modes. Key specifications include a maximum gain error of ±1.0% FSR, integral nonlinearity of ±0.5 LSB, and differential nonlinearity of ±0.25 LSB. It includes power-on/brown-out reset protection, user-programmable power-down modes, and an extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Integrated nonvolatile EEPROM for persistent storage of DAC settings and configuration bits across power cycles
• Flexible reference input options including external VREF pin, internal bandgap, or device VDD
• Configurable output buffer gain of unity or 2x when using external reference sources
• High-speed I²C compatibility supporting up to 3.4 Mbps operation

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Set point or offset trimming in industrial control systems
• Sensor calibration requiring precise analog signal generation
• Low-power portable instrumentation powered by battery sources
• Data acquisition systems needing multi-point voltage references
• Motor control applications requiring adjustable drive signals

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure the selected variant matches the required I²C address configuration and memory endurance specifications for the target application environment.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel DAC with nonvolatile retention is required. Consider the 8-bit resolution limits for linearity requirements. Verify that the system voltage falls within the 1.8V to 5.5V range and that the I²C bus speed does not exceed the device's High-Speed mode capabilities.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP47FEBXX family of nonvolatile DACs. It shares architectural similarities with volatile variants like the MCP47FVBxx but adds EEPROM for data retention. It complements higher-resolution models such as the MCP47FEB1X and MCP47FEB2X, offering a cost-effective solution for lower-precision applications.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MCP47FEB0X series devices with compatible packages. Volatile alternatives like the MCP47FVB0X require external memory solutions. Cross-vendor replacements must match the 8-bit resolution, I²C interface, and supply voltage constraints.
