13-bit dual DAC with SPI — BOM-fit for precision voltage trimming
The MAX5150BCEE+ from Analog Devices is a 13-bit digital-to-analog converter with two buffered voltage outputs, controlled over a standard SPI serial interface. Its R-2R ladder architecture delivers a typical settling time of 16 µs, and the integral and differential nonlinearity are both specified at ±1 LSB maximum — tight enough for open-loop trim and calibration DAC applications where monotonicity matters.
Package, supply, and compliance — what the BOM review needs
Packaged in a 16-lead QSOP (3.90 mm body width, 0.154-inch pitch), the MAX5150BCEE+ is also offered in a 16-SSOP variant; both are surface-mount and share the same footprint. The supplier device package is 16-QSOP. No differential output is provided — both channels are single-ended, buffered, and reference an external voltage source (Reference Type: External).
