In addition to the four voltage outputs, each amplifier’s negative input is also available to the user. This facilitates specific gain configurations, remote sensing, and high output drive capacity, making the MAX525 ideal for industrial-process-control applications. Other features include software shutdown, hardware shutdown lockout, an active-low reset which clears all registers and DACs to zero, a user-programmable logic output, and a serial-data output. MAX525 Low-Power, Quad, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DAC with Serial Interface ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS VDD to AGND............................................................-0.3V to +6V VDD to DGND ...........................................................-0.3V to +6V AGND to DGND ..................................................................±0.3V REFAB, REFCD to AGND ...........................-0.3V to (VDD + 0.3V) OUT_, FB_ to AGND...................................-0.3V to (VDD + 0.3V) Digital Inputs to DGND.............................................-0.3V to +6V DOUT, UPO to DGND ................................-0.3V to (VDD + 0.3V) Continuous Current into Any Pin.......................................±20mA Continuous Power Dissipation (TA = +70°C) Plastic DIP (derate 8.00mW/°C above +70°C) .................640mW SSOP (derate 8.00mW/°C above +70°C) ......................640mW CERDIP (derate 11.11mW/°C above +70°C) .................889mW Operating Temperature Ranges MAX525_C_P ........................................................0°C to +70°C MAX525_E_P .....................................................-40°C to +85°C MAX525_MJP ..................................................-55°C to +125°C Storage Temperature Range .............................-65°C to +150°C Lead Temperature (soldering, 10s) .................................+300°C Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device.

Simplified DAC Circuit Diagram _______________Detailed Description The MAX525 contains four 12-bit, voltage-output digital-to-analog converters (DACs) that are easily addressed using a simple 3-wire serial interface. It includes a 16-bit data-in/data-out shift register, and each DAC has a doubled-buffered input composed of an input register and a DAC register (see Functional Diagram). In addition to the four voltage outputs, each amplifier’s negative input is available to the user. The DACs are inverted R-2R ladder networks that convert 12-bit digital inputs into equivalent analog output voltages in proportion to the applied reference voltage inputs. DACs A and B share the REFAB reference input, while DACs C and D share the REFCD reference input. The two reference inputs allow different full-scale output voltage ranges for each pair of DACs. Figure 1 shows a simplified circuit diagram of one of the four DACs. Reference Inputs The two reference inputs accept positive DC and AC signals. The voltage at each reference input sets the full-scale output voltage for its two corresponding DACs. The reference input voltage range is 0V to (VDD - 1.4V). The output voltages (VOUT_) are represented by a digitally programmable voltage source as: VOUT_ = (VREF x NB / 4096) x Gain The impedance at each reference input is code-dependent, ranging from a low value of 10kΩ when both DACs connected to the reference have an input code of 555 hex, to a high value exceeding several gigohms (leakage currents) with an input code of 000 hex. Because the input impedance at the reference pins is code-dependent, load regulation of the reference source is important. The REFAB and REFCD reference inputs have a 10kΩ guaranteed minimum input impedance. When the two reference inputs are driven from the same source, the effective minimum impedance is 5kΩ. A voltage reference with a load regulation of 6ppm/mA, such as the MAX873, would typically deviate by 0.025LSB (0.061LSB worst case) when driving both MAX525 reference inputs simultaneously at 2.5V. Driving the REFAB and REFCD pins separately improves reference accuracy. In shutdown mode, the MAX525’s REFAB and REFCD inputs enter a high-impedance state with a typical input leakage current of 0.01µA. The reference input capacitance is also code dependent and typically ranges from 20pF with an input code of all 0s to 100pF with an input code of all 1s. Output Amplifiers All MAX525 DAC outputs are internally buffered by precision amplifiers with a typical slew rate of 0.6V/µs. Access to the inverting input of each output amplifier provides the user greater flexibility in output gain setting/ signal conditioning (see the Applications Information section). With a full-scale transition at the MAX525 output, the typical settling time to ±1/2LSB is 12µs when loaded with 5kΩ in parallel with 100pF (loads less than 2kΩ degrade performance). The MAX525 output amplifier’s output dynamic responses and settling performances are shown in the Typical Operating Characteristics. Power-Down Mode The MAX525 features a software-programmable shutdown that reduces supply current to a typical value of 10µA. The power-down lockout (PDL) pin must be high to enable the shutdown mode. Writing 1100XXXXXXXXXXXX as the input-control word puts the MAX525 in powerdown mode (Table 1). 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. 8 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Low-Power, Quad, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DAC with Serial Interface MAX525 SCLK SK DIN SO DOUT* SI* CS I/O Serial-Interface Configurations The MAX525’s 3-wire serial interface is compatible with both MICROWIRE (Figure 2) and SPI/QSPI (Figure 3). The serial input word consists of two address bits and two control bits followed by 12 data bits (MSB first), as shown in Figure 4. The 4-bit address/ control code determines the MAX525’s response outlined in Table 1. The connection between DOUT and the serial-interface port is not necessary, but may be used for data echo. Data held in the MAX525’s shift register can be shifted out of DOUT and returned to the microprocessor (µP) for data verification. The MAX525’s digital inputs are double buffered. Depending on the command issued through the serial interface, the input register(s) can be loaded without affecting the DAC register(s), the DAC register(s) can be loaded directly, or all four DAC registers can be updated simultaneously from the input registers (Table 1). • The clock edge on which data is to be clocked out through the serial-data output (DOUT) • The state of the user-programmable logic output (UPO) • If the part is to go into shutdown mode (assuming PDL is high) • How the part is configured when coming out of shutdown mode.

Connections for Microwire +5V DOUT* DIN MAX525 SS MISO* MOSI SCLK SCK Serial-Interface Description The MAX525 requires 16 bits of serial data. Table 1 lists the serial-interface programming commands. For certain commands, the 12 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 two DAC address bits (A1, A0) and two control bits (C1, C0), followed by the 12 data bits D11…D0 (Figure 4). The 4-bit address/control code determines: • The register(s) to be updated MAX525 In power-down mode, the MAX525 output amplifiers and the reference inputs enter a high-impedance state. The serial interface remains active. Data in the input registers is retained in power-down, allowing the MAX525 to recall the output states prior to entering shutdown. Start up from power-down either by recalling the previous configuration or by updating the DACs with new data. When powering up the device or bringing it out of shutdown, allow 15µs for the outputs to stabilize.

All DAC registers updated (default). “X” = Don’t care 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 through the serialdata input pin (DIN) on SCLK’s rising edge. The maximum guaranteed clock frequency is 10MHz. Data is latched into the appropriate MAX525 input/DAC registers on CS’s rising edge. The programming command Load-All-DACs-From-ShiftRegister allows all input and DAC registers to be simultaneously loaded with the same digital code from the input shift register. The no operation (NOP) command leaves the register contents unaffected and is useful when the MAX525 is configured in a daisy chain (see the Daisy Chaining Devices section). The command to 10 change the clock edge on which serial data is shifted out of DOUT also loads data from all input registers to their respective DAC registers. Serial-Data Output (DOUT) The serial-data output, DOUT, is the internal shift register’s output. The MAX525 can be programmed so that data is clocked out of DOUT on SCLK’s rising edge (Mode 1) or falling edge (Mode 0). In Mode 0, output data at DOUT lags input data at DIN by 16.5 clock cycles, maintaining compatibility with MICROWIRE, SPI/QSPI, and other serial interfaces. In Mode 1, output data lags input data by 16 clock cycles. On power-up, DOUT defaults to Mode 0 timing. User-Programmable Logic Output (UPO) The user-programmable logic output, UPO, allows an external device to be controlled through the MAX525 serial interface (Table 1). ______________________________________________________________________________________ Low-Power, Quad, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DAC with Serial Interface MAX525 CS COMMAND EXECUTED SCLK 1 DIN 8 A0 A1 C1 D8 D9 D11 D10 C0 9 D7 16 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 DATA PACKET (N) DOUT (MODE 0) A0 A1 C1 C0 D11 D10 D8 D9 D7 A1 MSB FROM PREVIOUS WRITE DATA PACKET (N) DATA PACKET (N-1) DOUT (MODE 1) A1 A0 C1 C0 D11 D10 D8 D9 D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 A1 MSB FROM PREVIOUS WRITE DATA PACKET (N) DATA PACKET (N-1) Figure 5.

Detailed Serial-Interface Timing Diagram Power-Down Lockout (PDL) 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 could also be used to asynchronously wake up the device. Daisy Chaining Devices Any number of MAX525s 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 MAX525’s DOUT pin has an internal active pullup, 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 8 shows an alternate method of connecting several MAX525s. 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. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 MAX525 Low-Power, Quad, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DAC with Serial Interface MAX525 SCLK DIN DIN CS CS MAX525 MAX525 SCLK SCLK DOUT SCLK DOUT DIN CS DIN DOUT CS TO OTHER SERIAL DEVICES Figure 7.

Figure 12 shows a technique for applying a sine-wave signal to the reference input where the AC signal is offset before being applied to REFAB/REFCD. The reference voltage must never be more negative than DGND. The MAX525’s total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD + N) is typically less than -72dB, given a 1Vp-p signal swing and input frequencies up to 25kHz. The typical -3dB frequency is 650kHz, as shown in the Typical Operating Characteristics graphs. +5V REFERENCE INPUTS MAX525 REFAB FBA 10kΩ VDD REFCD 10kΩ DAC A OUTA FBB 10kΩ 10kΩ DAC B OUTB FBC 10kΩ 10kΩ Digitally Programmable Current Source DAC C The circuit of Figure 13 places an NPN transistor (2N3904 or similar) within the op-amp feedback loop to implement a digitally programmable, unidirectional current source. This circuit can be used to drive 4mA to 20mA current loops, which are commonly used in industrial-control applications. 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 13.

For rated MAX525 performance, limit REFAB/REFCD to less than 1.4V below VDD. Bypass VDD with a 4.7µF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF capacitor to AGND. Use short lead lengths and place the bypass capacitors as close to the supply pins as possible. DIP/SSOP Grounding and Layout Considerations Digital or AC transient signals between AGND and DGND can create noise at the analog outputs. Tie AGND and DGND together at the DAC, then tie this point to the highest-quality ground available. Good printed circuit board ground layout minimizes crosstalk between DAC outputs, reference inputs, and digital inputs. Reduce crosstalk by keeping analog lines away from digital lines. Wire-wrapped boards are not recommended. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 15 MAX525 __________________Pin Configuration REF_ MAX525 Low-Power, Quad, 12-Bit Voltage-Output DAC with Serial Interface _Ordering Information (continued) TRANSISTOR COUNT: 4337 INL (LSBs) PART TEMP RANGE PIN-PACKAGE MAX525BC/D MAX525AEPP MAX525BEPP 0°C to +70°C -40°C to +85°C -40°C to +85°C Dice* 20 Plastic DIP 20 Plastic DIP ±1 ±1/2 ±1 20 SSOP 20 SSOP 20 CERDIP** 20 CERDIP** ±1/2 ±1 ±1/2 ±1 MAX525AEAP -40°C to +85°C MAX525BEAP -40°C to +85°C MAX525AMJP -55°C to +125°C MAX525BMJP -55°C to +125°C ___________________Chip Information * Dice are specified at TA = +25°C, DC parameters only. **Contact factory for availability and processing to MIL-STD-883.
