The MAX5100BEUP+T from Analog Devices packs four independent 8-bit voltage-output DACs into a 20-TSSOP package. Each channel settles to within 1 LSB in 6 µs typical, which keeps update rates practical for closed-loop trim, calibration DACs, and multi-channel set-point generation. The parallel data interface writes all four channels directly, so no serial latency stacks up when you need simultaneous updates across outputs. The external reference input sets the output span.
String DAC architecture and output drive
The internal architecture is a string DAC — a resistor ladder with switches that tap the divider nodes. This gives monotonicity by design and keeps the INL within ±2 LSB max, DNL within ±1 LSB max. The buffered voltage output can drive the input of an ADC or a control node directly; no external op-amp needed for the typical load.
The 20-TSSOP package is a surface-mount footprint common on mixed-signal boards; the tape-and-reel option (TR suffix) feeds pick-and-place lines directly.
ROHS3 compliant.
