Detailed Description

18-bit audio digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with serial input loading. Operates from dual ± supplies. Through-hole 16-PDIP package for easy prototyping and repair. Designed for high-fidelity and legacy audio systems.

Main Category: Integrated Circuits (ICs)

Small Classification: Data Acquisition - ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose

RoHS: Non-compliant (leaded)

Key Features

18-bit resolution for fine audio detail

Serial input loading interface (simple wiring, fewer pins)

Dual ± supply operation: ±4.75 V to ±13.2 V

Through-hole mounting for robust assembly and easy replacement

16-PDIP (0.300", 7.62 mm) package, standard DIP footprint

Operating temperature: -25°C to +70°C (commercial range)

Supplier device package: 16-PDIP

Package type: Bulk

Designed for audio DAC applications

Key Advantages

Simple drop-in for many legacy audio designs using PDIP DACs

Serial interface reduces pin count and board complexity

Wide supply range supports classic analog audio rails (±5 V to ±12 V nominal)

Through-hole package supports serviceability and hand-soldering

Stable operation across standard commercial temperature range

Packaging

Package type: 16-PDIP (Dual In-line Plastic), through-hole

Material: Molded plastic encapsulation with tin/lead plated leads (RoHS non-compliant)

Size: 0.300" (7.62 mm) body width; 16-lead DIP standard footprint

Pin configuration: 2 rows of 8 pins (total 16 pins); see datasheet for pin functions and interface timing

Thermal characteristics: Typical PDIP thermal behavior; consult datasheet for junction-to-ambient/case values and derating

Electrical properties (high level):

- Function: Audio DAC, serial-input

- Resolution: 18 bits

- Supply: Dual ±4.75 V to ±13.2 V (dual-rail operation)

- Operating temperature: -25°C to +70°C

Shipment: Bulk packaging for production or service stock

Lifecycle

Status: Legacy/older-generation audio DAC. It may be NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs) or discontinued in some channels. Availability can be limited.

Direct drop-in equivalent: No confirmed modern pin-to-pin replacement identified.

Alternatives: Because performance, pinout, and audio characteristics vary widely, please contact Y-IC sales for a vetted cross-reference list tailored to your design (pinout, power rails, dynamic performance, and interface).

If you need replacements or second sources, contact our sales team via the Y-IC website for current options and detailed guidance.
