Low-Power, Quad, 10-Bit Voltage-Output DAC
with Serial Interface
__________________General Description
The +5V MAX5250 combines four low-power, voltage-
output, 10-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and
four precision output amplifiers in a space-saving, 20-
pin package. In addition to the four voltage outputs,
each amplifier’s negative input is also available to the
user. This facilitates specific gain configurations, remote
sensing, and high output drive capacity, making the
MAX5250 ideal for industrial-process-control applica-
tions. Other features include software shutdown, hard-
ware shutdown lockout, an active-low reset that clears
all registers and DACs to zero, a user-programmable
logic output, and a serial-data output.
Each DAC has a double-buffered input organized as an
input register followed by a DAC register. A 16-bit serial
word loads data into each input/DAC register. The
3-wire serial interface is compatible with SPI™/QSPI™
and MICROWIRE™. It allows the input and DAC regis-
ters to be updated independently or simultaneously with
a single software command. All logic inputs are
TTL/CMOS-logic compatible.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
