Voltage-Output DACs
Figure 7 shows the unity-gain MAX5590 in a unipolar
output configuration. Table 24 lists the unipolar out-
put codes.
The MAX5590 outputs can be configured for bipolar
operation, as shown in Figure 8. The output voltage is
given by the following equation:
where CODE represents the numeric value of the
DAC’s binary input code (0 to 4095 decimal). Table 25
shows digital codes and the corresponding output volt-
age for the Figure 8 circuit.
The MAX5591/MAX5593/MAX5595 have force-sense
outputs, which provide a direct connection to the invert-
ing terminal of the output op amp, yielding the most
flexibility. The force-sense output has the advantage
that specific gains can be set externally for a given
application. The gain error for the MAX5591/MAX5593/
MAX5595 is specified in a unity-gain configuration (op-
amp output and inverting terminals connected), and
additional gain error results from external resistor
tolerances. The force-sense DACs allow many useful
circuits to be created with only a few simple external
components.
An example of a custom, fixed gain using the
MAX5591’s force-sense output is shown in Figure 9. In
this example, the external reference is set to 1.25V, and
the gain is set to +1.1V/V with external discrete resis-
tors to provide an approximate 0 to 1.375V DAC output
voltage range.
where CODE represents the numeric value of the
DAC’s binary input code (0 to 4095 decimal).
In this example, R2 = 12kΩ and R1 = 10kΩ to set the
gain = 1.1V/V.
