Speedy DAC claims dynamic superiority for comms
The MAX5195 is a 14bit 260Msample/s DAC claimed to provide the world's best dynamic performance in spurious-free dynamic range, intermodulation distortion and signal to noise ratio.
Low-power serial ADC runs up to 200Ksample/s
New from Maxim Integrated Products, the MAX1162 serial-interface 16bit A/D convertor connects directly to SPI, QSPI and Microwire devices without additional interface logic.
These DACs reduce system cost and space requirements by eliminating the need for external offset and gain correction circuitry, output amplifiers, filters, or capacitors.
Packaged in a 10 x 10mm 68-pin TQFN or 12 x 12mm 64-pin TQFN, the small footprint and excellent linearity make these devices well-suited for industrial applications, including automatic test equipment, fibre optics, and data acquisition.
Not only do the MAX5762-MAX5765 and MAX5773-MAX5775 achieve an ultrahigh level of integration, but they also offer much improved linearity over devices of previous generation.
At the 16bit level, they guarantee integral nonlinearity of 0.012% FSR (maximum), and differential nonlinearity of less than 1LSB.
Each of the four output voltage ranges (0 to +5, 0 to +10, -2.5 to +7.5 and +/-5V) maintains linearity to within 200mV of the supply rails.
An integrated offset DAC allows programmable common-mode adjustment of the voltage ranges.
The SPI-/QSPI-/Microwire-compatible, three-wire serial interface connects with microprocessors and DSPs without additional circuitry, and supports clock datarates as high as 33MHz.
Additionally, these devices have a digital output for daisychaining multiple devices in a system.
The MAX5762-MAX5765 and MAX5773-MAX5775 are available in the extended commercial temperature range (0 to +85C).
Prices start at $68.89 for the MAX5762-MAX5765 and $47.95 for the MAX5773-MAX5775 (1000-up, B grade, commercial temperature, FOB USA).
