±10V, 12-Bit, Serial, Voltage-Output DAC
General Description
The MAX5312 12-bit, serial-interface, digital-to-analog
converter (DAC) provides bipolar ±5V to ±10V outputs
from ±12V to ±15V power-supply voltages, or a unipo-
lar 5V to 10V output from a single 12V to 15V power-
supply voltage.
The MAX5312 features excellent linearity with both inte-
gral nonlinearity (INL) and differential nonlinearity (DNL)
guaranteed to ±1 LSB (max). The device also features
a fast 10µs to 0.5 LSB settling time, and a hardware-
shutdown feature that reduces current consumption to
3.5µA. The output goes to midscale at power-up in
bipolar mode (0V), and to zero scale at power-up in
unipolar mode (0V). A clear input (CLR) asynchronously
clears the DAC register and sets the output to 0V. The
output can be asynchronously updated with the load
DAC (LDAC) input.
The device features a 10MHz SPI™-/QSPI™-/
MICROWIRE™-compatible serial interface that oper-
ates with 3V or 5V logic. Additional features include a
serial-data output (DOUT) for daisy chaining and read-
back functions. The MAX5312 requires a 2V to 5.25V
external reference voltage and is available in a 16-pin
SSOP package that operates over the extended -40°C
to +85°C temperature range.

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.
