Fairchild/ON Semiconductor FMS3818KRC

FMS3818KRC Overview
This particular component is manufactured by Fairchild/ON Semiconductor and falls under the category of Data Acquisition - Digital to Analog Converters (DAC). It is a chip designed to convert digital signals into analog signals. It has a surface mount device (SMD) or surface mount technology (SMT) termination, meaning it can be easily mounted onto a circuit board. The maximum power dissipation for this chip is 300mW, and it requires a minimum supply voltage of 3V. The nominal supply current for this chip is 80mA. It has 8 bits, or binary digits, which refers to the number of possible output values it can produce. The architecture of this chip is known as current steering, which is a type of circuit design used in DACs. It does not have a differential output, meaning it only has one output signal. The resolution of this chip is 1 B, which means it can produce 1 bit of output for every input signal. The sampling rate for this chip is 180 Msps, or mega-samples per second, indicating its speed in converting digital signals to analog signals. The voltage supply for the digital aspect of this chip ranges from 3V to 3.6V.
