MAX5150/MAX5151
_______________General Description
The MAX5150/MAX5151 low-power, serial, voltage-output, dual 13-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs)
consume only 500µA from a single +5V (MAX5150) or
+3V (MAX5151) supply. These devices feature Rail-toRail® output swing and are available in a space-saving
16-pin QSOP package. To maximize the dynamic
range, the DAC output amplifiers are configured with an
internal gain of +2.
The 3-wire serial interface is SPI™/QSPI™ and
Microwire™ compatible. Each DAC has a doublebuffered input organized as an input register followed
by a DAC register, which allows the input and DAC registers to be updated independently or simultaneously
with a 16-bit serial word. Additional features include
programmable shutdown (2µA), hardware-shutdown
lockout, a separate reference voltage input for each
DAC that accepts AC and DC signals, and an activelow clear input (CL) that resets all registers and DACs
to zero. These devices provide a programmable logic
pin for added functionality, and a serial-data output pin
for daisy-chaining.

The reference input impedance ranges from 14kΩ
(1555 hex) to several giga ohms (with an input code of
0000 hex). The reference input capacitance is code
dependent and typically ranges from 15pF with an
input code of all zeros to 50pF with an input code of all
ones.
Output Amplifier
_______________Detailed Description
The MAX5150/MAX5151 dual, 13-bit, voltage-output
DACs are easily configured with a 3-wire serial interface. These devices include a 16-bit data-in/data-out
shift register, and each DAC has a double-buffered
input composed of an input register and a DAC register
(see Functional Diagram). In addition, trimmed internal
resistors produce an internal gain of +2 that maximizes
output voltage swing. The amplifier’s offset-adjust pin
allows for a DC shift in the DAC’s output.
Both DACs use an inverted R-2R ladder network that
produces a weighted voltage proportional to the input
voltage value. Each DAC has its own reference input to
facilitate independent full-scale values. Figure 1
depicts a simplified circuit diagram of one of the two
DACs.
Reference Inputs
The reference inputs accept both AC and DC values
with a voltage range extending from 0V to (VDD - 1.4V).
Determine the output voltage using the following equation (OS_ = AGND):
The output amplifiers on the MAX5150/MAX5151 have
internal resistors that provide for a gain of +2 when OS_
is connected to AGND. These resistors are trimmed to
minimize gain error. The output amplifiers have a typical slew rate of 0.75V/µs and settle to 1/2LSB within
16µs, with a load of 10kΩ in parallel with 100pF. Loads
less than 2kΩ degrade performance.
The OS_ pin can be used to produce an adjustable offset voltage at the output. For instance, to achieve a 1V
offset, apply -1V to the OS_ pin to produce an output
range from 1V to (1V + VREF x 2). Note that the DAC’s
output range is still limited by the maximum output voltage specification.
Power-Down Mode
The MAX5150/MAX5151 feature a software-programmable shutdown mode that reduces the typical supply
current to 2µA. The two DACs can be shutdown independently, or simultaneously using the appropriate programming command. Enter shutdown mode by writing
the appropriate input-control word (Table 1). In shutdown mode, the reference inputs and amplifier out-

The MAX5150/MAX5151 3-wire serial interface is compatible with both Microwire (Figure 2) and SPI/QSPI
(Figure 3) serial-interface standards. The 16-bit serial
input word consists of an address bit, two control bits,
and 13 bits of data (MSB to LSB) as shown in Figure 4.

The general timing diagram of Figure 5 illustrates how

disabled. With CS low, data at DIN is clocked into the
register on the rising edge of SCLK. As CS goes high,
data is latched into the input and/or DAC registers
depending on the address and control bits. The maximum clock frequency guaranteed for proper operation
is 10MHz. Figure 6 depicts a more detailed timing diagram of the serial interface.

MAX5150/MAX5151
The address and control bits determine the MAX5150/
MAX5151's response, as outlined in Table 1.
The MAX5150/MAX5151's digital inputs are double
buffered, which allows any of the following: loading the
input register(s) without updating the DAC register(s),
updating the DAC register(s) from the input register(s),
or updating the input and DAC registers concurrently.
The address and control bits allow the DACs to act
independently.
The 16-bit data can be sent as two 8-bit packets (SPI,
Microwire), with CS low during this period. The address
and control bits determine which register will be updated, and the state of the registers when exiting shutdown. The 3-bit address/control determines the

Serial-Data Output
The serial-data output, DOUT, is the internal shift register’s output. DOUT allows for daisy chaining of devices
and data readback. The MAX5150/MAX5151 can be
programmed to shift data out of DOUT on SCLK’s
falling edge (Mode 0) or on the rising edge (Mode 1).
Mode 0 provides a lag of 16 clock cycles, which maintains compatibility with SPI/QSPI and Microwire interfaces. In Mode 1, the output data lags 15.5 clock
cycles. On power-up, the device defaults to Mode 0.
User-Programmable Logic Output (UPO)
UPO allows an external device to be controlled through
the serial interface (Table 1), thereby reducing the
number of microcontroller I/O pins required.
PDL)
Power-Down Lockout Input (P
The power-down lockout pin (PDL) disables software
shutdown when low. When in shutdown, transitioning
PDL from high to low wakes up the part with the output
set to the state prior to shutdown. PDL can also be
used to asynchronously wake up the device.
Daisy Chaining Devices
Any number of MAX5150/MAX5151s can be daisy
chained by connecting the DOUT pin of one device to
the DIN pin of the following device in the chain (Figure 7).
Since the MAX5150/MAX5151’s DOUT pin has an internal active pull-up, the DOUT sink/source capability
determines the time required to discharge/charge a
capacitive load. Refer to the serial-data-out VOH and
VOL specifications in the Electrical Characteristics.

Figure 10. Setting OS_ for Output Offset
Figure 8 shows an alternate method of connecting several MAX5150/MAX5151s. In this configuration, the
data bus is common to all devices; data is not shifted
through a daisy chain. More I/O lines are required in
this configuration because a dedicated chip-select
input (CS) is required for each IC.
__________Applications Information
Unipolar Output
Figure 9 shows the MAX5150/MAX5151 configured for
unipolar, rail-to-rail operation with a gain of +2. The
MAX5150 can produce a 0V to 4.096V output with
2.048V reference (Figure 9), while the MAX5151 can
produce a range of 0V to 2.5V with a 1.25V reference.
Table 2 lists the unipolar output codes. An offset to the
output can be achieved by connecting a voltage to
OS_, as shown in Figure 10. By applying VOS_ = -1V,
the output values will range between 1V and (1V +
VREF x 2).

Bipolar Output
The MAX5150/MAX5151 can be configured for a bipolar output, as shown in Figure 11. The output voltage is
given by the equation (OS_ = AGND):
VOUT = VREF [((2 x NB) / 8192) - 1]
where NB represents the numeric value of the DAC’s
binary input code. Table 3 shows digital codes and the
corresponding output voltage for Figure 11’s circuit.
Using an AC Reference
In applications where the reference has an AC signal
component, the MAX5150/MAX5151 have multiplying
capabilities within the reference input voltage range
specifications. Figure 12 shows a technique for applying a sinusoidal input to REF_, where the AC signal is
offset before being applied to REF.

Figure 13. Digital Calibration
Harmonic Distortion and Noise
The total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD+N) is typically less than -78dB at full scale with a 1Vp-p input
swing at 5kHz. The typical -3dB frequency is 300kHz
for both devices, as shown in the Typical Operating
Characteristics.
Digital Calibration and
Threshold Selection
Figure 13 shows the MAX5150/MAX5151 in a digital
calibration application. With a bright light value applied
to the photodiode (on), the DAC is digitally ramped until
it trips the comparator. The microprocessor stores this
“high” calibration value. Repeat the process with a
dim light (off) to obtain the dark current calibration.

The microprocessor then programs the DAC to set an
output voltage at the midpoint of the two calibrated values. Applications include tachometers, motion sensing,
automatic readers, and liquid clarity analysis.
Digital Control of Gain and Offset
The two DACs can be used to control the offset and
gain for curve-fitting nonlinear functions, such as transducer linearization or analog compression/expansion
applications. The input signal is used as the reference
for the gain-adjust DAC, whose output is summed with
the output from the offset-adjust DAC. The relative
weight of each DAC output is adjusted by R1, R2, R3,
and R4 (Figure 14).
Power-Supply Considerations
On power-up, the input and DAC registers clear (set to
zero code). For rated performance, VREF_ should be at
least 1.4V below VDD. Bypass the power supply with a
4.7µF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF capacitor to
AGND. Minimize lead lengths to reduce lead inductance.
Grounding and Layout Considerations
Digital and AC transient signals on AGND can create
noise at the output. Connect AGND to the highest quality ground available. Use proper grounding techniques,
such as a multilayer board with a low-inductance
ground plane. Carefully lay out the traces between
channels to reduce AC cross-coupling and crosstalk.
Wire-wrapped boards and sockets are not recommended. If noise becomes an issue, shielding may be
required.
