Product Details
The MAX5715A evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the MAX5715A 12-bit, 4-channel, low-power DAC with internal reference and buffered voltage output. The device is in a 14-pin TSSOP package. The EV kit provides controls to change the DAC's outputs, power operations, and references.
The EV kit includes a USB-to-SPI interface circuit. The EV kit features Windows XP®-, Windows Vista®-, and Windows® 7-compatible software that provides a simple graphical user interface (GUI) for exercising the device's features.
The EV kit comes with the MAX5715AAUD+ installed, which is the 12-bit SPI version. Contact the factory for samples of the pin-compatible MAX5715BAUD+ (12-bit), MAX5714AUD+ (10-bit), and MAX5713AUD+ (8-bit) devices.
