16-bit precision DAC with SPI interface
The MAX5541ESA+: It converts a digital SPI stream into an unbuffered voltage output, settling to within 1 LSB in 1 µs typical. INL is ±4 LSB max, DNL is ±0.5 LSB max — the monotonicity guarantee (DNL < 1 LSB) means every code step produces a positive voltage increment, critical for closed-loop control and precision set-point generation. A single +5 V supply powers both the analog and digital sections, and the external reference input allows the full-scale output range to be set by the system reference, not the DAC's internal bandgap.
