The MAX5259EEE+ is a low power, 8bit octal digital to analogue converter (DAC) with rail to rail output buffers in 16 pin QSOP package. This +3V single supply, digital serial input, voltage output DAC is compatible with SPI, QSPI and MICROWIRE interfaces. Internal precision buffers swing rail to rail and reference input range extends from ground to positive supply. A 16bit input shift register is followed by eight 8bit input registers and eight 8bit DAC registers. The 16bit serial word consists of two don't care bits, three address bits, three control bits and eight data bits. The input and DAC registers can both be updated independently or simultaneously with a single software command. The asynchronous control input (active-low LDAC) provides simultaneous updating of all eight DAC registers. A buffered digital data output allows daisy chaining of serial devices. The MAX5259 is used in digital gain and offset adjustment, programmable attenuators and current sources.
