The external reference input means the full-scale output current is set by the reference voltage and the internal R-2R network; this allows ratiometric operation or scaling to match the ADC reference on the same board. ## Linearity and output flexibility Integral non-linearity is specified at ±0.5 LSB max, which for an 8-bit DAC means the transfer function stays within half a least-significant bit of ideal — no missing codes across temperature. The differential output provides complementary current outputs, useful for driving balanced inputs or differential amplifiers without extra inversion. The 16-pin DIP package with 0.300-inch row spacing is a standard through-hole footprint that mates with sockets or solders directly into plated-through holes. No MSL concerns — the ceramic or molded DIP body is moisture-insensitive, so no bake step before assembly. ## Sourcing and cross-reference note The AD7524JNZ is an active Analog Devices part, sourced through authorized and independent distribution channels. The closest peer in the same DIP footprint is the AD7542JNZ, a 12-bit DAC with the same R-2R architecture, parallel interface, and through-hole package. The AD7542JNZ has a 2 µs settling time and ±1 LSB INL — a direct resolution upgrade if the design needs 12 bits without a board layout change.","metaTitle":"AD7524JNZ 8-bit DAC, 500ns settling, 16-DIP, Active","metaDescription":"AD7524JNZ 8-bit multiplying DAC from Analog Devices, 500ns settling time, parallel interface, through-hole 16-DIP.
