MAX530ACWG

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX530ACWG is a low-power, 12-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates from single +5V or dual ±5V supplies with an operating current of 250µA at +5V and 40µA in shutdown mode. The device features an internal 2.048V laser-trimmed voltage reference and a buffered output amplifier. It utilizes double-buffered parallel logic inputs compatible with 4-bit, 8-bit, and 16-bit microprocessors. The component provides a relative accuracy of ±0.5 LSB maximum over the temperature range and guarantees monotonicity. It is housed in a 24-pin Wide SO package.
