MAXIM MAX5222EKA-T

19-1720; Rev 0; 4/00
Dual, 8-Bit, Voltage-Output
Serial DAC in 8-Pin SOT23
The MAX5222’s ultra-low power consumption and tiny
8-pin SOT23 package make it ideal for portable and
battery-powered applications. Supply current is less
than 1mA and drops below 1µA in shutdown mode. In
addition, the reference input is disconnected from the
REF pin during shutdown, further reducing the system’s
total power consumption.

MAX5222
General Description
The MAX5222 contains two 8-bit, buffered, voltage-output digital-to-analog converters (DAC A and DAC B) in a
small 8-pin SOT23 package. Both DAC outputs can
source and sink 1mA to within 100mV of ground and
VDD. The MAX5222 operates with a single +2.7V to
+5.5V supply.
The device uses a 3-wire serial interface, which operates at clock rates up to 25MHz and is compatible with
SPI™, QSPI™, and MICROWIRE™ interface standards.
The serial input shift register is 16 bits long and consists of 8 bits of DAC input data and 8 bits for DAC
selection and shutdown control. DAC registers can be
loaded independently or in parallel at the positive edge
of CS.

Detailed Description
Analog Section
The MAX5222 contains two 8-bit, voltage-output DACs.
The DACs are “inverted” R-2R ladder networks using
complementary switches that convert 8-bit digital
inputs into equivalent analog output voltages in proportion to the applied reference voltage.
The MAX5222 has one reference input that is shared
by DAC A and DAC B. The device includes output
buffer amplifiers for both DACs and input logic for simple microprocessor (µP) and CMOS interfaces. The
power-supply range is from +5.5V down to +2.7V.
Reference Input and DAC Output Range
The voltage at REF sets the full-scale output of the
DACs. The input impedance of the REF input is code
dependent. The lowest value, approximately 8kΩ,
occurs when the input code is 01010101 (55hex). The
maximum value of infinity occurs when the input code
is zero.
In shutdown mode, the selected DAC output is set to
zero, while the value stored in the DAC register remains
unchanged. This removes the load from the reference
input to save power. Bringing the MAX5222 out of shutdown mode restores the DAC output voltage. Because
the input resistance at REF is code dependent, the
DAC’s reference source should have an output impedance of no more than 5Ω. The input capacitance at the
REF pin is also code dependent and typically does not
exceed 25pF.
The reference voltage on REF can range anywhere from
GND to VDD. See the Output Buffer Amplifier section for
more information.
Figure 1 is the DAC simplified circuit diagram.
Output Buffer Amplifiers
DAC A and DAC B voltage outputs are internally
buffered. The buffer amplifiers have a Rail-to-Rail ®
(GND to VDD) output voltage range.
Both DAC output amplifiers can source and sink up to
1mA of current. See the INL vs. Digital Code graph in
the Typical Operating Characteristics. The amplifiers
are unity-gain stable with a capacitive load of 100pF or
smaller. The slew rate is typically 1V/µs.
Shutdown Mode
When programmed to shutdown mode, the outputs of
DAC A and DAC B are passively pulled to GND with a
series 5kΩ resistor. In shutdown mode, the REF input is
high impedance (2MΩ typical) to conserve current
drain from the system reference; therefore, the system
reference does not have to be powered down.
Coming out of shutdown, the DAC outputs return to the
values kept in the registers. The recovery time is equivalent to the DAC settling time.

Serial Interface
–—–
An active-low chip select (CS) enables the shift register
to receive data from the serial data input. Data is
clocked into the shift register on every rising edge of
the serial clock signal (SCLK). The clock frequency can
be as high as 25MHz.
Data is sent most significant bit (MSB) first and can be
transmitted in one 16-bit word. The write cycle can be
–—–
segmented when CS is kept active (low) to allow, for
example, two 8-bit-wide transfers. After clocking all –16
—–
bits into the input shift register, the rising edge of CS
updates the DAC outputs and the shutdown status.
Because of their single buffered structure, DACs cannot
be simultaneously updated to different digital values.

Serial-Input Data Format and Control Codes
Table 2 lists the serial-input data format. The 16-bit
input word consists of an 8-bit control byte and an 8-bit
data byte. The 8-bit control byte is not decoded internally. Every control bit performs one function. Data is
clocked in starting with UB1 (uncommitted bit), followed
by the remaining control bits and the data byte. The
least significant bit (LSB) of the data byte (B0) is the
last bit clocked into the shift register (Figure 2).
Table 3 is an example of a 16-bit input word. It performs the following functions:
• 80 hex (128 decimal) loaded into DAC registers
A and B.
• DAC A and DAC B are active.

Digital Inputs
The digital inputs are compatible with CMOS logic.
Supply current increases slightly when toggling the
logic inputs through the transition zone between
0.3 ✕ VDD and 0.7 ✕ VDD.
Microprocessor Interfacing
The MAX5222 serial interface is compatible with
MICROWIRE, SPI, and QSPI. For SPI, clear the CPOL
and CPHA bits (CPOL = 0 and CPHA = 0). CPOL = 0
sets the inactive clock state to zero, and CPHA = 0
changes data at the falling edge of SCLK. This setting
allows SPI to run at full clock speeds. If a serial port is
not available on your µP, 3 bits of a parallel port can be
used to emulate a serial port by bit manipulation.
Minimize digital feedthrough at the voltage outputs by
operating the serial clock only when necessary.

Applications Information
The MAX5222 is specified for single-supply operation
with VDD ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V, covering all commonly used supply voltages in 3V and 5V systems.
Initialization
An internal power-on reset circuit forces the outputs to
zero scale and initializes all external registers to zero.
This is equivalent to being in the shutdown state.
Therefore, at power-up, perform an initial write operation to set the outputs to the desired voltage.
Power-Supply and
Ground Management
GND should be connected to the highest quality
ground available. Bypass VDD with a 0.1µF to 0.22µF
capacitor to GND. The reference input can be used
without bypassing. For optimum line/load-transient
response and noise performance, bypass the reference input with 0.1µF to 4.7µF to GND. Careful PC
board layout minimizes crosstalk among DAC outputs,
the reference, and digital inputs. Separate analog lines
with ground traces between them. Make sure that highfrequency digital lines are not routed in parallel to analog lines.
