The MAX5852ETL is a high-performance, high-speed, 14-bit 10.7GSPS digital-to-analog converter (DAC) integrated circuit (IC) component. It is part of the MAX5852 family of DACs manufactured by Maxim Integrated. This IC is specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of wideband communication systems, test and measurement equipment, and radar applications.
One of the key features of the MAX5852ETL is its ability to deliver exceptional dynamic performance with a maximum analog output frequency of 4.9GHz. This allows it to support a wide range of signal generation applications requiring high-frequency precision analog outputs. Additionally, the device's excellent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of up to 66dB ensures high-quality signal generation with minimal noise and distortion.
The MAX5852ETL integrates a versatile serial digital interface, which supports both 1-byte-wide double data rate (DDR) and 2-byte wide words. This interface enables easy interfacing with various digital signal processors (DSPs), microcontrollers, and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), enhancing the flexibility and compatibility of the device in different system architectures.
The DAC's output current can be programmed via a flexible current digital-to-analog converter (IDAC) interface. This interface allows precise control of the output current levels, enabling fine-tuning of the analog output and facilitating system calibration processes
