MAX519BCSE+T

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX519BCSE+T is a dual, 8-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) featuring a simple 2-wire serial interface. It operates from a single +5V supply with an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The device includes internal precision buffers allowing rail-to-rail output swing and offers a low-power shutdown mode reducing supply current to 4µA. Power-on reset ensures outputs are at 0V upon initial power application.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Dual 8-bit DACs with independent reference inputs for each channel
• I2C-compatible 2-wire serial interface supporting data rates up to 400kbps
• Internal unity-gain buffer amplifiers enabling rail-to-rail output swing
• Power-down mode reduces supply current to 4µA

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Digital offset and gain adjustment circuits
• Industrial process control systems
• Automatic test equipment
• Programmable attenuators
• Minimum component analog systems

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'BCSE+T' against the manufacturer's official ordering guide to confirm package type, temperature grade, and tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with existing I2C bus protocols and check for any recent product change notices or end-of-life announcements from Analog Devices.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-channel DAC with individual reference inputs is required in a space-constrained design. The MAX519 is suitable for applications needing rail-to-rail output capability on a single 5V supply. Consider the MAX517 or MAX518 if only a single DAC channel is needed or if the supply voltage serves as the reference.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

The MAX519 belongs to the MAX517/MAX518/MAX519 family of 8-bit voltage-output DACs. Unlike the MAX518 which uses VDD as the reference, the MAX519 provides separate REF0 and REF1 pins for each DAC, enabling multiplying applications. It shares the same 2-wire serial interface and low-power characteristics as its siblings but requires a 16-pin package.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitutes include the MAX517ACPA and MAX518BCSA within the same family. Verify pinout compatibility and ensure the replacement part supports the required temperature range and serial interface timing specifications.
