MAX5383EUT

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX5383EUT is a single-supply, 16-channel, 12-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features an on-chip precision reference and buffered output amplifiers with rail-to-rail operation. The device supports multiple serial interfaces including SPI, QSPI, Microwire, and DSP modes, alongside an I2C-compatible interface. Key specifications include a maximum INL error of ±1 LSB, guaranteed monotonicity, and a programmable internal reference of 1.25 V or 2.5 V with 10 ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +85°C in a 28-lead TSSOP package.

Digital To Analog Converters Feature Summary

• Integrated channel monitor function for multiplexing analog outputs to a common pin
• Output amplifier boost mode for optimized slew rate performance
• User-programmable offset and gain adjustment capabilities
• Robust ESD protection ratings for industrial environments

Digital To Analog Converters Applications

• Variable optical attenuators (VOA)
• Level setting in automated test equipment (ATE)
• Optical microelectro-mechanical systems (MEMS) control
• General instrumentation and control systems

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EUT' against official datasheets to confirm the 28-lead TSSOP package and commercial temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with required serial protocols such as SPI or I2C. Cross-reference part numbers with current manufacturer documentation to avoid obsolete variants.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, multi-channel DAC solution is required within a compact footprint. Consider the integrated reference and buffer to reduce external component count. Verify that the 12-bit resolution and ±1 LSB INL meet system accuracy requirements. Check interface speed limits if operating above standard frequencies.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX538x family of dense DACs designed for space-constrained applications. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the MAX5380 and MAX5381 but offers a specific channel count and package configuration. The series emphasizes low power consumption and ease of integration into serial bus systems.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitutes include MAX5380EUT and MAX5381EUT. Verify pinout compatibility and channel count differences before substitution. Ensure electrical parameters such as reference voltage and interface timing match the original design requirements.
