Product Summary

The MAX531BCPD is a low-power, voltage-output, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) specified for single +5V power-supply operation. The MAX531BCPD can also be operated with ±5V supplies. The device (with internal reference) draws only 260μA. The MAX531BCPD comes in 14-pin DIP and SO packages. The applications of the MAX531BCPD include Battery-Powered Test Instruments, Digital Offset and Gain Adjustment, Battery-Operated/Remote Industrial Controls, Machine and Motion Control Devices, Cellular Telephones.
