MAX533ACEE-T

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX533ACEE-T is a quad, 8-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. It operates on a single +2.7V to +3.6V supply and features internal precision buffers that swing rail-to-rail. The device includes a double-buffered serial interface compatible with SPI, QSPI, and Microwire protocols, supporting clock frequencies up to 10MHz. It offers ultra-low power consumption, drawing 0.7mA during operation and 1µA in shutdown mode. The component provides software shutdown, asynchronous hardware clear, and daisy-chaining capabilities via a serial data output pin.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Quad-channel architecture with integrated rail-to-rail output buffer amplifiers
• Double-buffered registers enabling independent or simultaneous updates
• Ultra-low power design with dedicated software shutdown mode
• Flexible serial interface supporting multiple standard communication protocols

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Digital gain and offset adjustments
• Programmable attenuators
• Portable instruments

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' against official documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging status. Confirm the 'ACEE' designation corresponds to the industrial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and the 16-pin QSOP package. Ensure compatibility with existing system voltage levels before procurement.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low-voltage operation and minimal power consumption. Verify that the required resolution meets the 8-bit specification. Ensure the system supports the necessary serial interface timing and that the load impedance remains within the stable operating range of the internal buffers.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX533 family of low-power DACs. It shares functional similarities with other Maxim Integrated voltage-output converters but is distinct in its quad-channel configuration and specific serial control logic. The ACEE variant specifically denotes the commercial temperature grade and surface-mount packaging option.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include the MAX533BCPE or MAX533BEPE for different temperature grades. For higher resolution needs, consider the MAX5354/MAX5355 series. Verify pinout compatibility when substituting with other quad-DAC devices.
