General Description
The MAX5204–MAX5207 serial input, voltage-output 16-
bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) provide monotonic
16-bit output over temperature without any adjustments.
The MAX5204/MAX5205 operate from a +5V single
power supply and use an external reference ranging
from +4V to V
DD
, while the MAX5206/MAX5207 operate
from a +3V or +3.3V single power supply and use an
external reference ranging from +2V to V
DD
. The
MAX5204–MAX5207 DAC output range is typically from
0 to V
DD
.
The MAX5204–MAX5207 feature a hardware reset input
(CLR) that when pulled low clears the output to zero
code 0000 hex (MAX5205/MAX5207) or resets the out-
put to midscale code 8000 hex (MAX5204/MAX5206).
The 3-wire serial interface is compatible with
SPI™/QSPI™/MICROWIRE™. All devices have a low-
power shutdown mode that reduces the supply current
consumption to 1µA.
The MAX5204–MAX5207 are available in a space-sav-
ing 10-pin µMAX
®
package and are guaranteed over
the extended temperature range (-40°C to +105°C).
Refer to the MAX5200–MAX5203 data sheet for internal
reference versions.
