Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Single-channel 12-bit digital-to-analog converter with I2C interface and integrated EEPROM for nonvolatile storage. Features rail-to-rail output, 6 µs settling time, and operates from 2.7V to 5.5V with low power consumption. Ideal for sensor calibration, offset trimming, and portable instrumentation requiring settings retention across power cycles.
Package: SOT-23-6 · 6 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
SOT-23-6 packages house precision regulators, voltage references, and level shifters with 0.95mm pin pitch—too fine for hand soldering and incompatible with breadboards. A breakout board provides through-hole headers for prototype work, eliminating soldering difficulty while enabling quick circuit iteration. Essential for developing with compact analog and power management ICs.
