It wasn't that hard for my (no-name, Chinese) DAC to reach 98 C on hot days, so...
Btw, max operational temperature for AK4493 is 85 C. It probably won't burn at this level, but may fail to operate properly, I assume.
Now you have got me all interested. How do you now the chip reached 98C? If the chip surface reached 98C, the junction temp would be much higher than that. Were you running the chip at 1GHz or had it generate 1 amp output?
So what DAC is it? I think it had made a world record as the hottest DAC in the world. LOL
