The MAX5842LEUB+ is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Maxim Integrated. This device is a low-power, quad, 8-bit, voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with built-in rail-to-rail output buffers. It is designed to provide precise analog voltage outputs for a wide range of applications.
One of the key features of the MAX5842LEUB+ is its ability to operate from a single +2.7V to +5.25V power supply. This makes it suitable for low-power and portable electronics. The low-power consumption of this IC, typically at 240µA, is another notable feature that helps prolong battery life.
This quad DAC offers a high output drive capability, allowing it to directly drive capacitive loads up to 1nF. The built-in rail-to-rail output buffers ensure that the full-scale voltage output is maintained even at low supply voltages. Furthermore, the IC features a power-on-reset circuitry that guarantees the outputs are low at startup.
The digital inputs of the MAX5842LEUB+ support both serial and parallel interface operations. It utilizes a flexible serial interface with a wide range of input clock frequencies up to 40MHz. Additionally, the interface is compatible with three-wire or four-wire synchronous protocols, making it versatile for different communication requirements.
This IC component includes an on-chip reference voltage generator, which simplifies system design by eliminating the need for an external reference
