Quad/Octal, 2-Wire Serial 8-Bit DACs
with Rail-to-Rail Outputs
_______________General Description
The MAX520/MAX521 are quad/octal, 8-bit voltage-output
digital-to-analog converters (DACs) with simple 2-wire ser-
ial interfaces that allow communication between multiple
devices. They operate from a single +5V supply and their
reference input range includes both supply rails.
The MAX521 includes rail-to-rail output buffer amplifiers for
reduced system size and component count when driving
loads. The MAX520’s unbuffered voltage outputs reduce
the device’s total supply current to 4µA and provide
increased accuracy at low output currents.
The MAX520/MAX521 feature a serial interface and internal
software protocol, allowing communication at data rates up
to 400kbps. The interface, combined with the double-
buffered input configuration, allows the DAC registers to be
updated individually or simultaneously. In addition, the
devices can be put into a low-power shutdown mode that
reduces supply current to 4µA. Power-on reset ensures the
DAC outputs are at 0V when power is initially applied.
The MAX520 is available in 16-pin DIP and wide SO pack-
ages, as well as a space-saving 20-pin SSOP. The
MAX521 comes in 20-pin DIP and 24-pin SO packages, as
well as a space-saving 24-pin SSOP.

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.
