MAX5137GUE+T

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX5137GUE+T is a dual-channel, 12-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter in a 16-pin TSSOP package. It operates on a single supply of +2.7V to +5.25V with rail-to-rail buffered outputs. Key electrical parameters include a settling time of 5µs to ±2 LSB, an internal reference voltage of 2.44V, and a serial interface clock frequency up to 30MHz. The device features guaranteed monotonicity, low power consumption with a shutdown current of 2µA maximum, and an operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Dual-channel 12-bit resolution with high linearity
• Hardware-selectable power-up reset to zero or midscale
• Double-buffered input registers for simultaneous updates
• READY output facilitates daisy-chaining multiple devices

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Automatic Test Equipment
• Portable Instrumentation
• Process Control and Servo Loops
• Programmable Voltage and Current Sources

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GUE+T' corresponds to the 16-pin TSSOP package and tape-and-reel shipping format as defined in the manufacturer's ordering guide. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance standards indicated by the '+' designation. Ensure the source documentation explicitly lists this part number variant to avoid confusion with other pin-compatible members of the MAX5134–MAX5137 family.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select the MAX5137GUE+T when a dual-channel configuration is required instead of the quad-channel MAX5135. Choose this part for applications needing 12-bit resolution with rail-to-rail voltage outputs. Consider the TSSOP package for space-constrained designs requiring surface-mount technology. Verify that the 30MHz serial interface speed and low power shutdown mode align with system requirements.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

The MAX5137GUE+T belongs to the MAX5134–MAX5137 family of pin- and software-compatible DACs. This family includes both 16-bit and 12-bit variants in quad and dual channel configurations. All members share identical pinouts and serial interface protocols, allowing for design flexibility and easy migration between different resolution and channel count requirements within the same footprint.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Other members of the MAX5134–MAX5137 family are pin- and software-compatible substitutes. The MAX5135GUE+ offers quad-channel 12-bit performance in the same package. The MAX5136AGUE+ provides dual-channel 16-bit resolution. Ensure that the specific resolution and channel count differences do not impact the application design before substituting.
