10-bit quad DAC with buffered voltage output
The MAX5741EUB+ is a 10-bit, 4-channel digital-to-analog converter with a voltage-buffered output, built on a String DAC architecture. It converts a serial SPI or DSP data stream into four independent analog voltages, each settling within 10 µs. The 10-bit resolution across four channels suits applications needing multiple coarse analog setpoints from a single IC — trimming bias voltages, setting comparator thresholds, or generating control voltages for VCOs and filters.
Accuracy and interface for control loops
Integral non-linearity is ±0.5 LSB typical, with a maximum of ±1 LSB — the monotonicity across the full 10-bit range is guaranteed, so a rising digital code always produces a rising output voltage. This matters in closed-loop control where a non-monotonic DAC would cause the loop to reverse direction. External reference input means the output span is set by the reference voltage, not the supply. For a 2.5 V reference, each LSB step is about 2.44 mV; with a 4.096 V reference, it is 4 mV per step.
Package, temperature grade, and rework
The tube packaging is typical for prototype and low-volume builds; for reel quantities, check the alternate ordering suffix.
