General Description

The MAX5510/MAX5511 are single, 8-bit, ultra-low-
power, voltage-output, digital-to-analog converters
(DACs) offering Rail-to-Rail

®

buffered voltage outputs.

The DACs operate from a 1.8V to 5.5V supply and con-
sume less than 6µA, making them desirable for low-
power and low-voltage applications. A shutdown mode
reduces overall current, including the reference input
current, to just 0.18µA. The MAX5510/MAX5511 use a
3-wire serial interface that is compatible with SPI™,
QSPI™, and MICROWIRE™.

At power-up, the MAX5510/MAX5511 outputs are dri-
ven to zero scale, providing additional safety for appli-
cations that drive valves or for other transducers that
must be off during power-up. The zero-scale outputs
enable glitch-free power-up.

The MAX5510 accepts an external reference input. The
MAX5511 contains an internal reference and provides
an external reference output. Both devices have force-
sense-configured output buffers.

The MAX5510/MAX5511 are available in a 4mm x 4mm
x 0.8mm, 12-pin, thin QFN package and are guaranteed
over the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
For 12-bit compatible devices, refer to the MAX5530/
MAX5531 data sheet. For 10-bit compatible devices,
refer to the MAX5520/MAX5521 data sheet.
