+2.5V to +5.5V, Low-Power, Single/Dual,
8-Bit Voltage-Output DACs in µMAX Package
_______________General Description
The MAX548A/MAX549A/MAX550A serial, 8-bit voltage-
output digital-to-analog converters (DACs) operate from
a single +2.5V to +5.5V supply. Their ±1LSB TUE spec-
ification is guaranteed over temperature. Operating cur-
rent (supply current plus reference current) is typically
75µA per DAC with V
DD
= 2.5V. In shutdown, the DAC
is disconnected from the reference, reducing current
drain to less than 1µA. The MAX548A/MAX549A allow
each DAC to be shut down independently.
The 10MHz, 3-wire serial interface is compatible with
SPI™/QSPI™ and Microwire™ interface standards.
Double-buffered inputs provide flexibility when updat-
ing the DACs; the input and DAC registers can be
updated individually or simultaneously.
The MAX548A is a dual DAC with an asynchronous
load input; it uses V
DD
as the reference input. The
MAX549A is a dual DAC with an external reference
input. The MAX550A is a single DAC with an external
reference input and an asynchronous load input.
The MAX548A/MAX549A/MAX550A’s low power con-
sumption and small µMAX and DIP packages make
these devices ideal for portable and battery-powered
applications.

Serial-Data Input. Data is clocked into the 16-bit input shift register on
SCLK’s rising edge.
