Single-supply 10-bit DAC with SPI — what it is and where it fits
The Maxim Integrated MAX5355EUA+ is a 10-bit, single-channel, voltage-output digital-to-analog converter built around an R-2R ladder architecture. It delivers a buffered analog output with a typical settling time of 10 µs, controlled via a standard SPI data interface. The part operates from a single 3.15 V to 3.6 V supply — both analog and digital rails share the same range. The industrial temperature grade (-40°C to 85°C) qualifies it for factory-floor instrumentation, motor-drive feedback loops, and outdoor telecom line cards.
Sourcing and lifecycle — active, no LTB risk
The part is ROHS3 compliant, satisfying EU and global regulatory requirements without a waiver or exemption.
