MAX538ACSA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX538ACSA is a low-power, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Analog Devices, specified for single +5V power-supply operation. It features a buffered voltage output and an SPI data interface. The device draws only 140µA of supply current and has a settling time of 25µs (typical).

 

This DAC is designed for applications requiring precise voltage output, such as battery-powered test instruments, digital offset and gain adjustment, and remote industrial controls. It offers a 12-bit resolution with an integral nonlinearity (INL) of ±0.5 LSB maximum. The MAX538ACSA is available in an 8-SOIC package, suitable for surface mounting.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a 5V operating voltage, external reference type, and a non-differential output. The architecture is R-2R, providing reliable performance over temperature. The device is specified for an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.
