12-Bit, Low-Power, Dual, Voltage-Output
DAC with Serial Interface
General Description
The MAX5722 dual,12-bit, low-power, buffered voltage-
output, digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is packaged
in a space-saving 8-pin µMAX package (5mm
✕
3mm).
The wide supply voltage range of +2.7V to +5.5V and
112µA supply current accommodates low-power and
low-voltage applications. DAC outputs employ on-chip
precision output amplifiers that swing Rail-to-Rail
®
. The
MAX5722’s reference input accepts a voltage range
from 0 to V
DD
. In power-down, the reference input is
high impedance, further reducing the system’s total
power consumption.
The 20MHz, 3-wire SPI™, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and
DSP-compatible serial interface save board space and
reduce the complexity of opto- and transformer-isolated
applications. The MAX5722 on-chip power-on reset
(POR) circuit resets the DAC outputs to zero and loads
the output with a 100kΩ resistor to ground. This pro-
vides additional safety for applications that drive valves
or other transducers that need to be off on power-up.
The MAX5722’s software-controlled power-down
reduces supply current to less than 0.3µA and provides
software-selectable output loads (1kΩ, 100kΩ, or high
impedance) while in power-down. The MAX5722 is
specified over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temper-
ature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
