+5V, Low-Power, Voltage-Output,
Serial 12-Bit DACs
_______________General Description
The MAX531/MAX538/MAX539 are low-power, voltage-
output, 12-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) speci-
fied for single +5V power-supply operation. The MAX531
can also be operated with ±5V supplies. The
MAX538/MAX539 draw only 140µA, and the MAX531
(with internal reference) draws only 260µA. The
MAX538/MAX539 come in 8-pin DIP and SO packages,
while the MAX531 comes in 14-pin DIP and SO pack-
ages. All parts have been trimmed for offset voltage,
gain, and linearity, so no further adjustment is necessary.
The MAX538’s buffer is fixed at a gain of +1 and the
MAX539’s buffer at a gain of +2. The MAX531’s internal
op amp may be configured for a gain of +1 or +2, as
well as for unipolar or bipolar output voltages. The
MAX531 can also be used as a four-quadrant multiplier
without external resistors or op amps.
For parallel data inputs, see the MAX530 data sheet.

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.
