Low-Power, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DACs
with Serial Interface
______________________________Features
♦ 12-Bit DAC with Configurable Output Amplifier
The output amplifier’s inverting input is available to the
user, allowing specific gain configurations, remote
sensing, and high output current capability. This makes
the MAX5352/MAX5353 ideal for a wide range of applications, including industrial process control. Other features include a software shutdown and power-on reset.
The serial interface is compatible with SPI™/QSPI™
and Microwire™. The DAC has a double-buffered input,
organized as an input register followed by a DAC register. A 16-bit serial word loads data into the input register. The DAC register can be updated independently or
simultaneously with the input register. All logic inputs
are TTL/CMOS-logic compatible and buffered with
Schmitt triggers to allow direct interfacing to optocouplers.

_______________Detailed Description
The MAX5352/MAX5353 contain a voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that is easily addressed
using a simple 3-wire serial interface. Each IC includes
a 16-bit shift register, and has a double-buffered input
composed of an input register and a DAC register (see
Functional Diagram). In addition to the voltage output,
the amplifier’s negative input is available to the user.
The DAC is an inverted R-2R ladder network that converts a digital input (12 data bits plus one sub-bit) into
an equivalent analog output voltage in proportion to the
applied reference voltage. Figure 1 shows a simplified
circuit diagram of the DAC.
Reference Inputs
The reference input accepts positive DC and AC signals. The voltage at the reference input sets the fullscale output voltage for the DAC. The reference input
voltage range is 0V to (VDD - 1.4V). The output voltage
(VOUT) is represented by a digitally programmable voltage source, as expressed in the following equation:
VOUT = (VREF x NB / 4096) x Gain
where NB is the numeric value of the DAC’s binary
input code (0 to 4095), VREF is the reference voltage,
and Gain is the externally set voltage gain.
The impedance at the reference input is code dependent, ranging from a low value of 14kΩ when the DAC
has an input code of 1554 hex, to a high value exceeding several giga ohms (leakage currents) with an input
code of 0000 hex. Because the input impedance at the
reference pin is code dependent, load regulation of the
reference source is important.
In shutdown mode, the MAX5352/MAX5353’s REF input
enters a high-impedance state with a typical input leakage current of 0.001µA.
The reference input capacitance is also code dependent and typically ranges from 15pF (with an input
code of all 0s) to 50pF (at full scale).
The MAX873 +2.5V reference is recommended for the
MAX5352.
Output Amplifier
The MAX5352/MAX5353’s DAC output is internally
buffered by a precision amplifier with a typical slew rate
of 0.6V/µs. Access to the output amplifier’s inverting
input provides the user greater flexibility in output gain
setting/signal conditioning (see the Applications
Information section).
With a full-scale transition at the MAX5352/MAX5353
output, the typical settling time to ±1/2LSB is 14µs
when loaded with 5kΩ in parallel with 100pF (loads less
than 2kΩ degrade performance).
The amplifier’s output dynamic responses and settling
performances are shown in the Typical Operating
Characteristics.
Shutdown Mode
The MAX5352/MAX5353 feature a software-programmable shutdown that reduces supply current to a typical
value of 4µA. Writing 111X XXXX XXXX XXXX as the inputcontrol word puts the device in shutdown mode (Table 1).
In shutdown mode, the amplifier’s output and the reference input enter a high-impedance state. The serial
interface remains active. Data in the input registers is
retained in shutdown, allowing the MAX5352/MAX5353
_______________________________________________________________________________________
9
MAX5352/MAX5353
Low-Power, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DACs
with Serial Interface
to recall the output state prior to entering shutdown.
Exit shutdown mode by either recalling the previous
configuration or by updating the DAC with new data.
When powering up the device or bringing it out of shutdown, allow 20µs for the output to stabilize.

Serial-Interface Configurations
The MAX5352/MAX5353’s 3-wire serial interface is
compatible with both Microwire™ (Figure 2) and
SPI™/QSPI™ (Figure 3). The serial input word consists
of three control bits followed by 12+1 data bits (MSB
first), as shown in Figure 4. The 3-bit control code
determines the MAX5352/MAX5353’s response outlined
in Table 1.
The MAX5352/MAX5353’s digital inputs are double
buffered. Depending on the command issued through
the serial interface, the input register can be loaded
without affecting the DAC register, the DAC register
can be loaded directly, or the DAC register can be
updated from the input register (Table 1).
The +3.3V MAX5353 can also directly interface with
+5V logic.

Serial-Interface Description
The MAX5352/MAX5353 require 16 bits of serial data.
Table 1 lists the serial-interface programming commands. For certain commands, the 12+1 data bits are
“don’t cares.” Data is sent MSB first and can be sent in
two 8-bit packets or one 16-bit word (CS must remain
low until 16 bits are transferred). The serial data is composed of three control bits (C2, C1, C0), followed by
the 12+1 data bits D11...D0, S0 (Figure 4). Set the
sub-bit (S0) to zero. The 3-bit control code determines:
• the register to be updated,
• the configuration when exiting shutdown.
Figure 5 shows the serial-interface timing requirements.
The chip-select pin (CS) must be low to enable the
DAC’s serial interface. When CS is high, the interface
control circuitry is disabled. CS must go low at least
tCSS before the rising serial clock (SCLK) edge to properly clock in the first bit. When CS is low, data is
clocked into the internal shift register via the serial-data
input pin (DIN) on SCLK’s rising edge. The maximum
guaranteed clock frequency is 10MHz. Data is latched
into the MAX5352/MAX5353 input/DAC register on CS’s
rising edge.

Unipolar Output
For a unipolar output, the output voltage and the reference input have the same polarity. Figure 8 shows the
MAX5352/MAX5353 unipolar output circuit, which is
also the typical operating circuit. Table 2 lists the unipolar output codes.
Figure 9 illustrates a rail-to-rail output. This circuit
shows the MAX5352 with the output amplifier configured with a closed-loop gain of +2 to provide a 0V to 5V
full-scale range when a 2.5V reference is used. When
the MAX5353 is used with a 1.25V reference, this circuit
provides a 0V to 2.5V full-scale range.
ANALOG OUTPUT
Bipolar Output
The MAX5352/MAX5353 output can be configured for
bipolar operation using Figure 10’s circuit according to
the following equation:
VOUT = VREF [(2NB / 4096) - 1]
where NB is the numeric value of the DAC’s binary input
code. Table 3 shows digital codes (offset binary) and
the corresponding output voltage for Figure 10’s circuit.

NOTE: ( ) are for sub-bit.
Using an AC Reference
In applications where the reference has AC-signal components, the MAX5352/MAX5353 have multiplying
capability within the reference input range specifications. Figure 11 shows a technique for applying a sinewave signal to the reference input where the AC signal
is offset before being applied to REF. The reference
voltage must never be more negative than GND.

The MAX5352’s total harmonic distortion plus noise
(THD+N) is typically less than -77dB (full-scale code),
and the MAX5353’s THD+N is typically less than
-72dB (full-scale code), given a 1Vp-p signal swing and
input frequencies up to 25kHz. The typical -3dB frequency is 650kHz for both devices, as shown in the
Typical Operating Characteristics graphs.
Digitally Programmable Current Source

 2048 
The circuit of Figure 12 places an NPN transistor
(2N3904 or similar) within the op-amp feedback loop to
implement a digitally programmable, unidirectional current source. The output current is calculated with the
following equation:
IOUT = (VREF/R) x (NB/4096)
where NB is the numeric value of the DAC’s binary
input code and R is the sense resistor shown in
Figure 12.

Digital or AC transient signals on GND can create noise
at the analog output. Tie GND to the highest-quality
ground available.
Good printed circuit board ground layout minimizes
crosstalk between the DAC output, reference input, and
digital input. Reduce crosstalk by keeping analog lines
away from digital lines. Wire-wrapped boards are not
recommended.

Power-Supply Considerations
On power-up, the input and DAC registers are cleared
(set to zero code).
For rated MAX5352/MAX5353 performance, REF must
be at least 1.4V below VDD. Bypass VDD with a 4.7µF
capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF capacitor to GND.
Use short lead lengths and place the bypass capacitors as close to the supply pins as possible.
