Speedy DAC claims dynamic superiority for comms
The MAX5195 is a 14bit 260Msample/s DAC claimed to provide the world's best dynamic performance in spurious-free dynamic range, intermodulation distortion and signal to noise ratio.
It integrates interpolation, deemphasis, analogue output filters, click-and-pop-free power-up and power-down, and line level outputs that swing 3.5V peak-peak with a 10kohm load.
These features make the MAX5556 ideal for digital audio applications.
The MAX5556 includes automatic clock divisor detection (MCLK/LRCK) and operates with a sampling frequency between 2kHz and 50kHz from an MCLK up to 25MHz.
The output is muted if the clock signal is lost, and then returns to normal operation without glitches when the clock signal is restored.
The MAX5556 operates from a single +5V supply and has a 16 to 24bit I2S-compatible serial interface.
Future parts are offered for applications not requiring I2S compatibility: the MAX5557 with a 16 to 24bit left-justified interface; the MAX5558 with a 16bit right-justified interface; and the MAX5559 with an 18bit right-justified interface.
All devices are available in a narrow, 8-pin SO package, and priced at only $0.99 (1000-up, FOB USA).
