MX7528KEWP+

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MX7528KEWP+ is a dual-channel, 8-bit multiplying digital-to-analog converter (DAC) manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand. It utilizes an R-2R resistor ladder architecture and features parallel data interfaces for input. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 5 V to 15 V for both analog and digital domains. It is housed in a 20-SOIC surface-mount package with a specified operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Key performance metrics include a settling time of 350 ns, integral nonlinearity (INL) of ±0.5 LSB, and differential nonlinearity (DNL) of ±1 LSB. The component consumes approximately 1 mA of current and dissipates up to 450 mW.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Dual-channel CMOS design supporting independent operation or simultaneous control via parallel interface
• Multiplying capability allowing reference voltage inputs to be positive, negative, or AC signals
• Integrated buffering on output channels to drive external loads without additional amplifiers

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Battery-powered instrumentation systems requiring low power consumption
• Programmable gain amplifier circuits utilizing multiplying DAC functionality
• Industrial process control loops needing precise analog signal generation

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'KEWP+' indicates the specific commercial grade variant with SOIC-20 packaging and extended temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Check for obsolescence notices or lifecycle changes directly from Analog Devices, as distribution availability may vary by region and channel.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-channel buffered outputs are required alongside multiplying reference capabilities. Ensure the parallel interface timing aligns with the host microcontroller or FPGA. Compare against unbuffered variants like the MX7528KEQP+ if external op-amps are already present in the design to potentially reduce cost or power usage.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the MX7528 series of high-speed, low-power CMOS DACs. It shares architectural similarities with other members such as the MX7528JN and MX7528KEQP+, differing primarily in packaging, temperature rating, and output buffer configuration. The series is designed for applications demanding moderate resolution with fast settling times.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the MX7528KEQP+ for unbuffered applications and the MX7528JN for through-hole DIP requirements. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before swapping between buffered and unbuffered versions.
