Dual 8-bit multiplying DAC — active, bulk
The PM7574GP is a dual 8-bit multiplying DAC — two independent conversion channels on one chip, each accepting a reference input and producing an analog output proportional to the digital code times that reference. The bulk package means it ships as loose units, not on tape-and-reel — fine for bench builds, repair stock, or low-volume production, but not pick-and-place ready without manual handling.
RoHS non-compliant — plan the exemption
The PM7574GP is marked RoHS non-compliant — it contains lead (Pb) above the 0.1 % threshold, likely in the solder-plated leads or die-attach material. For new assemblies shipping into RoHS-regulated markets, this part requires an exemption (e.g., Annex III or IV) or a waiver in the customer's compliance declaration. Repair and MRO stockrooms serving legacy boards should keep a bin of these — the non-compliant finish mates well with tin-lead solder and avoids the tin-whisker risk that sometimes comes with pure-tin terminations on older PCB finishes.
