MCP48CMD11T-E/MG

Overview

The MCP48CMD11T-E/MG is a single-channel, 10-bit buffered voltage output Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) featuring Multi-Time Programmable (MTP) nonvolatile memory. It operates within an analog supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V for full specifications, with reduced specifications available between 1.8V and 2.7V. The device utilizes a four-wire SPI-compatible serial interface supporting write speeds up to 50 MHz and read speeds up to 25 MHz. Key electrical parameters include a typical settling time of 4 µs, a maximum Integral Nonlinearity (INL) of ±1 LSB, and a gain error of ±0.6% of Full Scale Range (FSR). The unit is housed in a 10-lead MSOP package and supports an extended industrial temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates MTP nonvolatile memory allowing user-programmable storage of DAC output values, configuration registers, and general-purpose data.

Applications

• Set point or offset trimming
• Sensor calibration
• Low-power portable instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'MG' against official Microchip documentation to confirm the exact package type and tape-and-reel quantity. Ensure the selected variant matches the required operating voltage and temperature range specifications for your application design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel 10-bit resolution is required alongside persistent output state retention without external EEPROM. Consider the 50 MHz SPI speed and buffered voltage output characteristics for high-speed signal generation applications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP48CXDX1/2 family, which includes 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit variants in both single and dual channel configurations. The 'CMD' designation specifically indicates the inclusion of MTP nonvolatile memory, distinguishing it from volatile RAM-based counterparts like the MCP48CVD series.

Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same family include MCP48CMD11T-E/MS or MCP48CMD11T-E/MF, provided the package footprint compatibility is verified. Cross-family replacements require careful evaluation of pinout differences and electrical specification margins.
