TLC7528CFNG3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The TLC7528CFNG3 is an 8-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for data acquisition applications requiring dual current output channels. This device features an R-2R architecture with 100ns settling time and operates across analog and digital supply voltages of 5V to 15V. The component is housed in a 20-PLCC (9x9) surface mount package and maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance.
Substitute parts become necessary due to inventory constraints, manufacturing discontinuation, or specific performance requirements within the allowed electrical and mechanical parameter ranges for 8-bit dual DAC applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility for the TLC7528CFNG3 is determined by strict adherence to the following core parameters:
- 8-bit resolution with dual D/A converter channels
- Current output, unbuffered configuration
- Parallel data interface with external reference capability
- R-2R architecture
- 5V to 15V dual supply voltage range
- 0°C to 70°C operating temperature range
- 20-PLCC (9x9) surface mount package
- RoHS3 compliance
Substitute parts must maintain identical values across all listed parameters. Performance characteristics such as settling time and INL/DNL specifications may vary within acceptable ranges for the application category, provided the core functional and electrical parameters remain constant.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
All listed substitute parts maintain full compatibility with the TLC7528CFNG3 across core electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection should be based on product status and availability:
MX7528JP+ and MX7528KP+ are manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated and carry Active product status with equivalent RoHS3 and REACH compliance. These parts exhibit longer settling times (400ns versus 100ns) and relaxed INL/DNL tolerances compared to the primary part, but remain functionally equivalent within the 8-bit dual DAC category.
TLC7528CFN is a Texas Instruments product with Last Time Buy status, indicating discontinued production. This part maintains identical electrical performance to the TLC7528CFNG3 with 100ns settling time and ±0.5 LSB INL/DNL specifications, but inventory depletion should be anticipated.
For new designs requiring long-term availability, MX7528KP+ or MX7528JP+ are preferred due to Active product status. For applications requiring 100ns settling time performance, TLC7528CFN or TLC7528CFNG3 are the appropriate selections.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can MX7528JP+ and MX7528KP+ be used interchangeably with TLC7528CFNG3?
A: Yes, within the constraints of settling time performance. Both Maxim parts are electrically and mechanically compatible, featuring identical 8-bit resolution, dual converter channels, parallel interface, and 20-PLCC packaging. The 400ns settling time of the Maxim devices is slower than the 100ns specification of the TLC7528CFNG3. Applications tolerant of this performance difference can use these parts as direct substitutes.
Q: What is the difference between TLC7528CFNG3 and TLC7528CFN?
A: Both are Texas Instruments products with identical electrical specifications: 8-bit resolution, 100ns settling time, and ±0.5 LSB INL/DNL accuracy. The primary difference is product status: TLC7528CFNG3 is Active, while TLC7528CFN is Last Time Buy. Packaging and performance are equivalent.
Q: Are there any package or pinout differences between these parts?
A: No. All substitute parts use the 20-PLCC (9x9) surface mount package with 20-LCC J-Lead configuration. Pinout and mechanical dimensions are identical, allowing direct PCB substitution without layout modifications.
Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new production designs?
A: MX7528KP+ or MX7528JP+ are recommended for new designs due to Active product status and long-term availability. Both maintain full RoHS3 and REACH compliance. If 100ns settling time is a critical requirement, verify application tolerance for the 400ns performance of Maxim devices, or maintain use of TLC7528CFNG3 while supplies are available.
Q: Do all parts meet the same compliance standards?
A: Yes. All listed parts are RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical across all parts.
