General Description
The MAX5312 12-bit, serial-interface, digital-to-analog converter (DAC) provides bipolar ±5V to ±10V outputs from ±12V to ±15V power-supply voltages, or a unipolar 5V to 10V output from a single 12V to 15V powersupply voltage.

Features
♦ Unipolar or Bipolar Output-Voltage Ranges
   Unipolar: 0 to (+2 x VREF) (Single or Dual
   Supply)
   Bipolar: (-2 x VREF) to (+2 x VREF) (Dual Supply)
♦ Guaranteed INL ≤ ±1 LSB (max)
♦ Guaranteed Monotonic: DNL ≤ ±1 LSB (max)
♦ 10µs Settling Time to 0.5 LSB
♦ Low 3.5µA Shutdown Current
♦ 10MHz SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE-Compatible Serial
   Interface
♦ Power-On Reset Sets DAC Output to 0V
♦ Schmitt Trigger Inputs for Direct
   Optocoupler Interface
♦ Serial-Data Output Allows Daisy Chaining
   of Devices
♦ Small 16-Pin SSOP

Applications
   Motor Control
   Industrial Process Controls
   Industrial Automation
   Automatic Test Equipment (ATE)
   Analog I/O Boards
   Data-Acquisition Systems
