Low-Power, Dual, Voltage-Output, 12-Bit DAC
with Serial Interface
General Description
The MAX5104 low-power, serial, voltage-output, dual
12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) consumes only
500µA from a single +5V supply. This device features
Rail-to-Rail
®
output swing and is available in a space-
saving 16-pin QSOP package. To maximize the dynamic
range, the DAC output amplifiers are configured with an
internal gain of +2V/V.
The 3-wire serial interface is SPI™/QSPI™/MICROWIRE™
compatible. Each DAC has a double-buffered input
organized as an input register followed by a DAC register,
which allows the input and DAC registers to be updated
independently or simultaneously with a 16-bit serial
word. Additional features include programmable power-
down (2µA), hardware power-down lockout (PDL), a
separate reference voltage input for each DAC that
accepts AC and DC signals, and an active-low clear
input (CL) that resets all registers and DACs to zero.
These devices provide a programmable logic pin for
added functionality, and a serial-data output pin for
daisy chaining.

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.
