16-bit rail-to-rail DAC in a PDIP-8
The LTC1655LCN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit rail-to-rail digital-to-analog converter in an 8-pin PDIP package. It features a serial interface and is designed for applications requiring a full-scale output swing from ground to the positive supply rail, such as precision set-point generation, programmable voltage references, and industrial control loops.
Bulk delivery — what to expect
For automated pick-and-place lines, verify whether the PDIP-8 package is available on tape or if a tube-to-tape conversion is needed. Bulk delivery is common for through-hole parts and often carries a lower per-unit cost at higher quantities.
