A new family of 8, 10 and 12bit, single and dual micropower DACs are the industry's first to operate from supply voltages as low as 1.8 to 5.5V, with maximum current drain of 5uA per convertor

A new family of 8, 10 and 12bit, single and dual micropower D/A convertors are the industry's first DACs to operate from supply voltages as low as 1.8 to 5.5V, with maximum current drain of 5uA per convertor. Their ultralow supply current and 1.8V supply voltage make them ideal for direct battery-powered equipment such as medical devices, sensors, and consumer electronics.

The MAX5510-MAX5515, MAX5520-MAX5525 and MAX5530-MAX5535 contain a precision, internal voltage reference that saves board space by not requiring a separate external reference.

The reference output's 8mA source current allows these devices to power surrounding circuitry or be used as a reference for other data convertors.

Available in tiny 10-pin microMAX and 12-pin, 4 x 4mm QFN packages, the MAX5510-MAX5515, MAX5520-MAX5525 and MAX5530-MAX5535 are ideal for space-constrained and low-power systems.

These DACs are guaranteed to be monotonic.

They have a fast 16MHz low-power SPI/QSPI/Microwire-compatible three-wire serial interface, and a preconfigured force-sense or unity-gain output-buffer configuration.

Prices start at $1.47for the MAX5510-MAX5515, at $1.97 for the MAX5520-MAX5525, and at $3.97 for the MAX5530-MAX5535 (1000-up, FOB USA).
