Low-Power, Dual, 8-Bit, Voltage Output
Serial DAC in 8-Pin SOT23
MAX5223
General Description
The MAX5223 contains two 8-bit, buffered, voltage out-
put digital-to-analog converters (DAC A and DAC B) in a
small 8-pin SOT23 package. DAC outputs can source
and sink 1mA to within 100mV of ground and V
DD
. The
MAX5223 operates with a single +2.7V to +5.5V supply.
The device uses a 3-wire serial interface, which oper-
ates at clock rates up to 25MHz and is compatible with
SPI鈩? QSPI鈩? and MICROWIRE鈩?interface standards.
The serial input shift register is 16 bits long and con-
sists of 8 bits of DAC input data and 8 bits for DAC
selection and shutdown control. DAC registers can be
loaded independently or in parallel at the positive edge
of
CS.
The MAX5223鈥檚 ultra-low power consumption and tiny
8-pin SOT23 package make it ideal for portable and
battery-powered applications. Supply current is a low
100碌A(chǔ) and drops below 1碌A(chǔ) in shutdown mode. In
addition, the reference input is disconnected from the
REF pin during shutdown, which reduces the system鈥檚
total power consumption.
