+1.8V to +5.5V, Ultra-Low-Power, 8-Bit,
Voltage-Output DACs
The MAX5510/MAX5511 are single, 8-bit, ultra-lowpower, 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 consume less than 6µA, making them desirable for lowpower 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 driven to zero scale, providing additional safety for applications 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 forcesense-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.

Detailed Description
The MAX5510/MAX5511 single, 8-bit, ultra-low-power,
voltage-output DACs offer Rail-to-Rail buffered voltage
outputs. The DACs operate from a 1.8V to 5.5V supply
and require only 6µA (max) supply current. These
devices feature a shutdown mode that reduces overall
current, including the reference input current, to just
0.18µA. The MAX5511 includes an internal reference
that saves additional board space and can source up
to 8mA, making it functional as a system reference. The
16MHz, 3-wire serial interface is compatible with SPI,
QSPI, and MICROWIRE protocols. When V DD is
applied, all DAC outputs are driven to zero scale with
virtually no output glitch. The MAX5510/MAX5511 output buffers are configured in force sense allowing users
to externally set voltage gains on the output (an outputamplifier inverting input is available). These devices
come in a 4mm x 4mm thin QFN package.
Digital Interface
The MAX5510/MAX5511 use a 3-wire serial interface
compatible with SPI, QSPI, and MICROWIRE protocols
(Figures 1 and 2).
The MAX5510/MAX5511 include a single, 16-bit, input
shift register. Data loads into the shift register through
the serial interface. CS must remain low until all 16 bits
are clocked in. Data loads MSB first, D9–D0. The 16
bits consist of 4 control bits (C3–C0), 8 data bits
(D7–D0), and 4 sub-bits. (see Table 1). D7–D0 are the
DAC data bits and S3–S0 are the sub-bits. The sub-bits
must be set to zero for proper operation. The control
bits C3–C0 control the MAX5510/MAX5511, as outlined
in Table 2.
Each DAC channel includes two registers: an input register and a DAC register. The input register holds input
data. The DAC register contains the data updated to
the DAC output.
The double-buffered register configuration allows any
of the following:
• Loading the input registers without updating the DAC
registers
• Updating the DAC registers from the input registers
• Updating all the input and DAC registers simultaneously

Power Modes
The MAX5510/MAX5511 feature two power modes to
conserve power during idle periods. In normal operation, the device is fully operational. In shutdown mode,
the device is completely powered down, including the
internal voltage reference in the MAX5511. The
MAX5511 also offers a standby mode where all circuitry
is powered down except the internal voltage reference.
Standby mode keeps the reference powered up while
the remaining circuitry is shut down, allowing it to be
used as a system reference. Standby mode also helps
reduce the wake-up delay by not requiring the reference to power up when returning to normal operation.
Shutdown Mode
The MAX5510/MAX5511 feature a software-programmable shutdown mode that reduces the typical supply
current and the reference input current to 0.18µA
(max). Writing an input control word with control bits
C[3:0] = 1110 places the device in shutdown mode
(Table 2). In shutdown, the MAX5510 reference input
and DAC output buffers go high impedance. Placing
the MAX5511 into shutdown turns off the internal reference, and the DAC output buffers go high impedance.
The serial interface remains active for all devices.
Table 2 shows several commands that bring the
MAX5510/MAX5511 back to normal operation. The
power-up time from shutdown is required before the
DAC outputs are valid.
Note: For the MAX5511, standby mode cannot be
entered directly from shutdown mode. The device must
be brought into normal operation before entering standby mode.
Standby Mode (MAX5511 Only)
The MAX5511 features a software-programmable
standby mode that reduces the typical supply current
to 6µA. Standby mode powers down all circuitry except
the internal voltage reference. Place the device in
standby mode by writing an input control word with
control bits C[3:0] = 1100 (Table 2). The internal reference and serial interface remain active while the DAC
output buffers go high impedance. If the MAX5511 is
coming out of standby, the power-up time from standby
is required before the DAC outputs are valid.
directly from shutdown mode. The device must be
brought into normal operation before entering standby
mode. To enter standby from shutdown, issue the command to return to normal operation, followed immediately by the command to go into standby.
Table 2 shows several commands that bring the MAX5511
back to normal operation. When transitioning from standby
mode to normal operation, only the DAC power-up time is
required before the DAC outputs are valid.
Reference Input
The MAX5510 accepts a reference with a voltage range
extending from 0 to VDD. The output voltage (VOUT) is
represented by a digitally programmable voltage
source as:
VOUT = (VREF x N / 256) x gain
where N is the numeric value of the DAC’s binary input
code (0 to 255), VREF is the reference voltage and gain
is the externally set voltage gain for the MAX5510/
MAX5511.
In shutdown mode, the reference input enters a highimpedance state with an input impedance of 2.5GΩ (typ).
Reference Output
The MAX5511 internal voltage reference is software
configurable to one of four voltages. Upon power-up,
the default reference voltage is 1.214V. Configure the
reference voltage using the D6 and D7 data bits (Table
3) when the control bits are as follows: C[3:0] = 1100,
1101, or 1110 (Table 2). VDD must be kept at a minimum of 200mV above VREF for proper operation.

The MAX5510/MAX5511 have a force-sense output,
which provides a connection directly to the inverting terminal of the output op amp, yielding the most flexibility.
The advantage of the force-sense output is that specific
gains can be set externally for a given application. The
gain error for the MAX5510/MAX5511 is specified in a
unity-gain configuration (op-amp output and inverting terminals connected), and additional gain error results from
external resistor tolerances. Another advantage of the
force-sense DAC is that it allows many useful circuits to
be created with only a few simple external components.

Power Supply and Bypassing
Considerations
Bypass the power supply with a 0.1µF capacitor to GND.
Minimize lengths to reduce lead inductance. If noise
becomes an issue, use shielding and/or ferrite beads to
increase isolation. For the thin QFN package, connect
the exposed paddle to ground.
where NA represents the numeric value of the DAC
input code.
Layout Considerations
Digital and AC transient signals coupling to GND can
create noise at the output. Use proper grounding techniques, such as a multilayer board with a low-inductance
ground plane. Wire-wrapped boards and sockets are not
recommended. For optimum system performance, use
printed circuit (PC) boards. Good PC board ground layout minimizes crosstalk between DAC outputs, reference
inputs, and digital inputs. Reduce crosstalk by keeping
analog lines away from digital lines.
