MAX5592EUG+T

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The MAX5592EUG+T is an octal, 10-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from the MAX5590–MAX5595 family. It features buffered outputs with a maximum settling time of 3µs at the 12-bit level equivalent. The device operates from a +2.7V to +5.25V analog supply and a separate +1.8V to +5.25V digital supply. It utilizes a 20MHz 3-wire serial interface compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP protocols. Integral Nonlinearity is ±1 LSB max, and Differential Nonlinearity is guaranteed monotonic at ±1 LSB max. It includes two user-programmable digital I/O ports and selectable power-up states.

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EUG+T corresponds to the 24-pin TSSOP package and lead-free/RoHS compliance status as indicated by the plus sign. Confirm availability through authorized Analog Devices or Maxim Integrated distributors, as stock levels fluctuate. Ensure the ordering code matches the required temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics remain unchanged for this specific part number variant.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select the MAX5592EUG+T when eight independent 10-bit channels are required with fast settling times. Choose this unity-gain version over force-sense variants if external feedback loops are not needed. Ensure the system supports the 3-wire serial interface timing requirements. Verify that the analog and digital supply voltages fall within the specified 2.7V-5.25V and 1.8V-5.25V ranges respectively. Consider the 24-pin TSSOP footprint constraints during PCB layout.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

The MAX5592EUG+T belongs to the MAX5590–MAX5595 series of buffered, fast-settling, octal DACs. This family differentiates primarily by resolution (12, 10, or 8 bits) and buffer configuration (unity-gain vs. force-sense). The MAX5592 specifically offers 10-bit resolution with unity-gain buffers. It shares the same pinout compatibility and serial interface protocol with other members of the series, facilitating design scalability across different precision requirements.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct functional substitutes within the same family include the MAX5590EUG+ (12-bit) and MAX5594EUG+ (8-bit), provided resolution differences are acceptable. For force-sense buffer applications, consider the MAX5593EUI+ (10-bit, 28-pin) if package changes are permissible. Verify that any replacement maintains the 24-pin TSSOP form factor and serial interface compatibility.
