The MAX5854 is a 10-bit dual channel 165MSPS DAC from TI, which supports single-ended and differential outputs, supports 2.7V-3.6V power supply, output voltage range is -1.0V-1.25V, supports 3 working modes, normal work, low-power standby and complete power-down, packaged as 40-pin thin QFN, temperature range -40°C-85°C.
The MAX5854 is a dual, 10‑bit, 165 Msps digital‑to‑analog converter that delivers current‑output signals from 2 mA to 20 mA. It operates from a single 2.7 V to 3.6 V supply and includes a 1.24 V bandgap reference with programmable gain matching and interleaved data mode to reduce pin count.
The device is packaged in a 40‑pin thin QFN‑EP (6 mm × 6 mm) and is rated for an extended temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C. Typical performance includes 190 mW power consumption at 20 mA, 1 pA shutdown current, and up to 200 MHz maximum clock frequency. Applications cover communications, wireless base stations, quadrature modulation, DDS, and instrumentation.
