Product Summary

The MAX521ACWG is a quad/octal, 8-bit voltage-output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with simple 2-wire serial interfaces that allow communication between multiple device. It operates from a single +5V supply and their reference input range includes both supply rails. The MAX521ACWG includes rail-to-rail output buffer amplifiers for reduced system size and component count when driving loads.
