Maxim Integrated MAX503EAG

Description
The MAX503 is a low-power, 10-bit, voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that operates from single 5V or dual ±5V supplies. It features an internal voltage reference and output buffer amplifier, making it ideal for portable and battery-powered applications. The shrink small-outline package (SSOP) saves space, measuring only 0.1 square inches. Laser trimming ensures 10-bit resolution, eliminating the need for further adjustments. Internal gain-setting resistors allow for DAC output voltage ranges of 0V to 2.048V, 0V to 4.096V, or ±2.048V. Four-quadrant multiplication is possible without external components. The parallel logic inputs are double buffered and compatible with 4-bit, 8-bit, and 16-bit microprocessors.
