PCM1742KE variants from Texas Instruments
PCM1742KE Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Special Purpose Data Converters.
PCM1742KE is a Texas Instruments order-code family — not a single orderable MPN. This page lists 2 variants that share the same core device but differ in suffix fields (package, grade, reel/tube, electrical bin, etc.). Pick the exact full part number; substituting within the family without checking the datasheet often causes assembly or spec mismatches.
Package: 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width) | Mounting Type: Surface Mount | Supply Voltage: 3V ~ 3.6V, 5V | Number of Channels: 2 | Operating Temperature: -25°C ~ 85°C Other listed variants describe: IC DAC/AUDIO 24BIT 200K 16SSOP.
Across listed variants, watch these parameters: packages: 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width).
Suffix examples in this family: 2K, 2KG4. The characters after the base number usually encode package, temperature, or performance grade — compare the variant table column-by-column rather than assuming pin-compatible drops-in.
Example MPNs: PCM1742KE/2K, PCM1742KE/2KG4.
Key Features
- Footprint / package: 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width)Single package option across listed variants; still confirm reel vs tube suffix if you auto-insert.
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
- 2 distinct suffix patternsExamples: 2K, 2KG4. Decode suffix meaning in the ordering notes under the variant table.
Target Applications
- Special Purpose Data Converters — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained

Ordering Code Differences
How suffixes on PCM1742KE map to package, grade, and reel options.
PCM1742KE uses a shared prefix; characters after the prefix encode orderable options. Two lines with the same prefix are not drop-in replacements unless the differing columns match your need.
Suffixes seen here: 2K, 2KG4.
Full MPN examples: PCM1742KE/2K, PCM1742KE/2KG4.
Tip: photograph or copy the reel label — reel diameter, QTY per reel, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) are often suffix-driven and won't show in the schematic.
How to Choose the Right PCM1742KE Special Purpose Data Converters
Match the footprint first
Packages here: 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width). Open the land-pattern drawing before you substitute a different suffix.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For PCM1742KE, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "PCM1742KE" — include the full suffix (e.g. 2K, 2KG4). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
