HI5960IBZ Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HI5960IBZ is a 14-bit Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, housed in a 28-SOIC package. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production support. The HI5960IBZ provides current-unbuffered output with differential capability, supporting both external and internal reference configurations across a 2.7V to 5.5V supply range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both AD9764AR and AD9764ARZ are active production components from Analog Devices Inc., providing superior long-term availability compared to the obsolete HI5960IBZ. All three parts share identical electrical specifications and 28-SOIC package geometry, enabling direct PCB-level substitution without design modification.

The AD9764AR and AD9764ARZ differ only in packaging format (Tube) and moisture sensitivity classification. The AD9764ARZ features MSL 1 (Unlimited), providing enhanced moisture tolerance during storage and handling compared to the HI5960IBZ MSL 3 (168 Hours) rating. Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification.

For new designs and production continuity, either AD9764AR or AD9764ARZ is suitable. Selection between the two Analog Devices variants should be based on supply chain availability and moisture handling requirements for your specific manufacturing environment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AD9764AR and AD9764ARZ be used interchangeably with HI5960IBZ?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical electrical specifications, settling time, output characteristics, supply voltage ranges, and 28-SOIC package footprint. Pin-for-pin and functional compatibility is confirmed across all specified parameters.

Q: What is the primary reason to substitute the HI5960IBZ?

A: The HI5960IBZ is classified as obsolete. Analog Devices AD9764AR and AD9764ARZ are active production parts with confirmed long-term availability, making them suitable for new designs and ongoing production support.

Q: Are there differences between AD9764AR and AD9764ARZ?

A: Both parts are electrically identical. The primary difference is moisture sensitivity level: AD9764AR has MSL 3 (168 Hours), while AD9764ARZ has MSL 1 (Unlimited). For applications requiring extended storage or humid environments, AD9764ARZ provides superior moisture tolerance.

Q: Is the 28-SOIC package identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts use the same 28-SOIC package with 0.295" (7.50mm) width, enabling direct PCB substitution without layout changes.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both AD9764AR and AD9764ARZ are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export purposes, matching the compliance profile of the HI5960IBZ.

Q: What is the settling time specification for all three parts?

A: All three parts specify 35ns typical settling time, ensuring equivalent performance in timing-critical applications.
