MAX5177BEEE+T

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX5177BEEE+T is a low-power, serial, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter featuring a force/sense voltage output. It operates from a single +3V supply with a typical supply current of 260µA, reducing to 1µA in shutdown mode. The device includes a precision output amplifier with an accessible inverting input for gain configuration and remote sensing. It supports SPI, QSPI, and MICROWIRE interfaces and offers glitch-free power-up behavior.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Force/Sense voltage output with accessible inverting input for flexible gain and offset adjustment
• Glitch-free output voltage at power-up to prevent system transients
• Programmable shutdown mode with hardware lockout capability
• User-programmable logic output pin for external component control

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Digitally programmable 4–20mA current loops
• Industrial process controls
• Motion control systems
• Automatic test equipment (ATE)
• Remote industrial controls

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BEEE+T corresponds to the intended INL specification and packaging format. Confirm that the +3V supply requirement aligns with the target application's power architecture. Ensure compatibility with the 3-wire serial interface standards used in the design. Check for any lead-free or RoHS compliance requirements relevant to the manufacturing region.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this device when a single +3V supply is available and low power consumption is critical. The force/sense output is suitable for applications requiring precise gain setting via external resistors. Consider the MAX5175 variant if a +5V supply is preferred. Evaluate the MAX5171/MAX5173 if higher 14-bit resolution is required while maintaining pin compatibility.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX517x family of low-power serial DACs. It is pin-compatible with the MAX5175, which operates on a +5V supply. The family also includes 14-bit upgrades like the MAX5171/MAX5173. The device is designed for space-constrained applications using the 16-pin QSOP package.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

The MAX5175 is a pin-compatible alternative operating from a +5V supply. For higher resolution, the MAX5171 and MAX5173 are 14-bit pin-compatible upgrades. Devices with internal references, such as the MAX5122/MAX5123, may be considered if external reference components can be eliminated.
