A 3 µs settling time to ±0.5 LSB means each DAC channel can update at over 300 kHz before the output has not settled to within 1/2 LSB of the final value. For a closed-loop servo or a waveform generator, this settling time sets the upper bound on the update rate — a 10 kHz sine wave with 32 points per cycle requires a 320 kHz update, which this DAC meets with margin. The external reference input (REF) lets the user scale the full-scale output independently of the supply rails, useful for ratiometric measurements or matching an ADC reference voltage. ## Military temperature range and hermetic package The 8-CDIP package (0.300-inch body width, 7.62 mm) is a hermetic ceramic DIP with a glass-to-metal seal — no moisture ingress, no outgassing into sealed enclosures. This combination is the standard choice for satellite payloads, missile guidance electronics, downhole instrumentation, and other environments where a plastic SOIC or TSSOP would fail reliability screening. The through-hole mounting (0.100-inch pitch) is compatible with standard DIP sockets or hand-soldered into a PCB with plated through-holes. ## Supply flexibility and dual-channel independence Each of the two DACs has its own output buffer and can be updated independently via the serial interface. The string-DAC architecture (resistor ladder) gives monotonic performance over temperature, which matters when the output must never decrease as the digital code increases — a requirement in closed-loop setpoint control.","metaTitle":"TI TLV5618AMJGB Dual 12-Bit DAC, 3 µs Settling","metaDescription":"Texas Instruments TLV5618AMJGB dual 12-bit voltage-output DAC in hermetic CDIP-8. 3 µs settling, SPI interface, -55°C to 125°C range.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Analog & Data Acquisition"],"specifications":{"Series":"-","Packaging":"Tube","Output Type":"Voltage - Buffered","Part Status":"Active","Architecture":"String DAC","Manufacturer":"Texas Instruments","INL/DNL (LSB)":"±2, ±0.5","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Settling Time":"3µs","Data Interface":"3-Wire Serial, Microwire, QSPI, SPI","Number of Bits":"12","Package / Case":"8-CDIP (0.300\\\", 7.62mm)","Reference Type":"External","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Differential Output":"No","Operating Temperature":"-55°C ~ 125°C","Supplier Device Package":"8-CDIP","Number of D/A Converters":"2","Voltage - Supply, Analog":"2.7V ~ 3.3V, 4.5V ~ 5.5V","Voltage - Supply, Digital":"2.7V ~ 3.3V, 4.5V ~ 5.5V"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/6f60e0fb6f2b973b2bdee89c4978f4ff.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icboms.com/api/mcp/products/TLV5618AMJGB/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the equivalent or replacement for TLV5618AMJGB?","answer":"No official cross-reference or pin-compatible replacement is listed by Texas Instruments. The TLV5618A family includes the same dual 12-bit DAC core in different package and temperature variants; the 'M' suffix designates the military temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) and the 'JGB' suffix indicates the 8-CDIP package.
