MX7528JEPP+

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MX7528JEPP+ is a dual-channel, 8-bit multiplying digital-to-analog converter (DAC) manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It utilizes an R-2R resistor ladder architecture to provide two independent current outputs. The device features a parallel data interface and requires an external reference voltage for operation. It operates on analog and digital supply voltages ranging from 5V to 15V. Key performance specifications include a maximum settling time of 350ns and integral/differential non-linearity errors limited to ±1 LSB. The component is housed in a narrow 20-pin PDIP package designed for through-hole mounting.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Dual-channel architecture providing two independent 8-bit DAC cores within a single package
• Multiplying capability allowing the use of positive, negative, or AC reference signals
• Unbuffered current output design requiring external operational amplifiers for voltage conversion

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Precision signal generation systems requiring dual-channel analog output
• Industrial control applications utilizing multiplying DAC functionality
• Test and measurement equipment needing stable 8-bit resolution

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix JEPP against official datasheets to confirm the narrow 20-PDIP package and commercial temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by the plus sign. Check manufacturer announcements for end-of-life notices, as this component may be discontinued. Ensure external components match the unbuffered current output requirements.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-channel 8-bit resolution with multiplying capabilities is required. The R-2R architecture offers straightforward interfacing via parallel data lines. Consider the 350ns settling time for bandwidth limitations. External op-amps are mandatory for voltage output applications due to the unbuffered nature of the internal current sources.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the MX7528 family of dual, low-power, multiplying DACs. It shares core architectural similarities with other members like the MX7528JN but differs in packaging and potentially thermal characteristics. The JEPP suffix specifically denotes the narrow plastic DIP form factor suitable for through-hole assembly.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package are limited if the exact JEPP suffix is unavailable. Evaluate MX7528 variants with different suffixes for package compatibility. Cross-reference AD7528 specifications for functional equivalence, noting potential differences in serial versus parallel interfaces.
