MAX538BESA+ is listed in the Digital To Analog Converters range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. Its product description is IC DAC 12BIT V-OUT 8SOIC. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The MAX538BESA+ is a low-power, voltage-output, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed for single +5V power-supply operation. It features a buffered voltage output with a fixed gain of +1 and draws only 140µA of supply current. The device utilizes an R-2R resistor ladder structure and includes a power-on reset circuit. It supports serial data input via a three-wire interface compatible with SPI, QSPI, and Microwire standards. The component operates within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package.
Verify the specific suffix 'E' indicates the commercial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C) rather than the extended grade (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm the 'SA' designation corresponds to the 8-pin Small Outline package. Ensure RoHS compliance status matches current manufacturing revisions before finalizing procurement orders.
Select this component when a 12-bit resolution is required alongside minimal power consumption in a single-supply environment. The fixed +1 gain configuration suits applications needing direct rail-to-rail output scaling relative to the reference voltage. Consider alternative models if bipolar output ranges or higher resolution are necessary for the design requirements.
This part belongs to the MAX531/MAX538/MAX539 family of low-power DACs. Unlike the MAX531, it lacks an internal reference and external op-amp pins. Compared to the MAX539, it maintains a fixed +1 buffer gain instead of +2. It shares the same 12-bit architecture and serial interface protocols as its siblings within the series.
The MAX538BCPA+ serves as a pin-compatible through-hole replacement option within the same family.
