General Description
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 are 16-bit digital-to-
analog converters (DACs) with 32 sample-and-hold
(SHA) outputs for applications where a high number of
programmable voltages are required. These devices
include a clock oscillator and a sequencer that updates
the DAC with codes from an internal SRAM. No external
components are required to set offset and gain.
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 feature a -4.5V to
+9.2V output voltage range. Other features include a
200µV/step resolution, with output linearity error, typi-
cally 0.005% of full-scale range (FSR). The 100kHz
refresh-rate updates each SHA every 320µs, resulting
in negligible output droop. Remote ground sensing
allows the outputs to be referenced to the local ground
of a separate device.
These devices are controlled through a 20MHz
SPI™/QSPI™/MICROWIRE™-compatible 3-wire serial
interface. Immediate Update Mode allows any chan-
nel’s output to be updated within 20µs. Burst Mode
allows multiple values to be loaded into memory in a
single, high-speed data burst. All channels are updated
within 330µs after data has been loaded.
Each device features an output clamp and output resis-
tors for filtering. The MAX5631 features a 50Ωoutput
impedance and is capable of driving up to 250pF of out-
put capacitance. The MAX5632 features a 500Ωoutput
impedance and is capable of driving up to 10nF of output
capacitance. The MAX5633 features a 1kΩoutput imped-
ance and is capable of driving up to 10nF of output
capacitance.
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 are available in 12mm
x 12mm, 64-pin TQFP, and 10mm x 10mm, 68-pin thin
QFN packages.

Note 1: The nominal zero-scale (code = 0) voltage is -4.0535V. The nominal full-scale (code = FFFF hex) voltage is +9.0535V. The
output voltage is limited by the Output Range specification, restricting the useable range of DAC codes. The nominal zero-
scale voltage may be achieved when VSS < -4.9V, and the nominal full-scale voltage may be achieved when VDD > +11.5V.
Note 2: Gain is calculated from measurements
for voltages VDD = 10V and VSS = -4V at codes C000 hex and 4F2C hex,
for voltages VDD = 11.6V and VSS = -2.9V at codes FFFF hex and 252E hex,
for voltages VDD = 9.25V and VSS = -5.25V at codes D4F6 hex and 0 hex, and
for voltages VDD = 8.55V and VSS = -2.75V at codes C74A hex and 281C hex.
Note 3: Steady-state change in any output with an 8V change in an adjacent output.
Note 4: Settling during the first update for an 8V step. The output will settle to within the linearity specification on subsequent
updates. Tested with an external sequencer clock frequency of 480kHz.
Note 5: External clock mode with the external clock not toggling.
Note 6: The output voltage is the sum of the DAC output and the voltage at GS. GS gain is measured at 4F2C hex.
Note 7: The sequencer runs at fSEQ = fECLK/4. Maximum speed is limited by settling of the DAC and SHAs. Minimum speed is
limited by acceptable droop and update time after a Burst Mode Update.
Note 8: VDD rise to CS low = 500µs maximum.
Note 9: Guaranteed by gain-error test.
Note 10: The serial interface is inactive. VIH = VLOGIC, VIL = 0.
Note 11: The serial interface is active. VIH = VLOGIC, VIL = 0.

Detailed Description
Digital-to-Analog Converter
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 16-bit digital-to-ana-
log converters (DAC) are composed of two matched
sections. The four MSBs are derived through 15 identi-
cal matched resistors and the lower 12 bits are derived
through a 12-bit inverted R-2R ladder.
Sample-and-Hold Amplifiers
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 contain 32 buffered
sample/hold circuits with internal hold capacitors.
Internal hold capacitors minimize leakage current,
dielectric absorption, feedthrough, and required board
space. MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 provide a very low
1mV/s droop rate.
Output
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 include output buffers
on each channel. The device contains output resistors in
series with the buffer output (Figure 3) for ease of output
filtering and capacitive load driving stability.
Output loads increase the analog supply current (IDD
and ISS). Excessively loading the outputs drastically
increases power dissipation. Do not exceed the maxi-
mum power dissipation specified in the Absolute
Maximum Ratings.
The maximum output voltage range depends on the
analog supply voltages available and the output clamp
voltages (see Output Clamp).
The device has a fixed theoretical output range deter-
mined by the reference voltage, gain, and midscale offset.
The output voltage for a given input code is calculated
with the following:
where code is the decimal value of the DAC input
code, VREF is the reference voltage, and VGS is the

nal endpoint voltages and cannot be reached with all
combinations of negative and positive power-supply
voltages. The nominal, useable DAC endpoint codes
for the selected power supplies may be calculated as:
lower endpoint code = 32768 - ((2.5V - (VSS + 0.75) /
200µV) (result ≥0)
upper endpoint code = 32768 + ((VDD - 2.4 - 2.5V) /
200µV) (result ≤65535)
The resistive voltage-divider formed by the output resis-
tor (RO) and the load impedance (RL), scales the out-
put voltage. Determine VOUT_ as follows:
Ground Sense
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 include a ground-
sense input (GS), which allows the output voltages to
be referenced to a remote ground. The voltage at GS is
added to the output voltage with unity gain. Note that
the resulting output voltage must be within the valid
output voltage range set by the power supplies.
Output Clamp
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 clamps the output
between two externally applied voltages. Internal
diodes at each channel restrict the output voltage to:
The clamping diodes allow the MAX5631/MAX5632/
MAX5633 to drive devices with restricted input ranges.
The diodes also allow the outputs to be clamped during
power-up or fault conditions. To disable output clamp-
ing, connect CH to VDD and CL to VSS, setting the
clamping voltages beyond the maximum output voltage
range.
Serial Interface
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 are controlled by an
SPI, QSPI, and MICROWIRE-compatible 3-wire inter-
face. Serial data is clocked into the 24-bit shift register
in an MSB-first format, with the 16-bit DAC data pre-
ceding the 5-bit SRAM address, 2-bit control, and a fill
0 (Figure 4). The input word is framed by CS. The first

MSB of the input word.
When each serial word is complete, the value is stored
in the SRAM at the address indicated and the control
bits are saved. Note that data may be corrupted if CS is
not held low for an integer multiple of 24 bits.
All of the digital inputs include Schmitt-trigger buffers to
accept slow-transition interfaces. Their switching
threshold is compatible with TTL and most CMOS logic
levels.
Serial Input Data Format and
Control Codes
The 24-bit serial input format, shown in Figure 4, compris-
es of 16 data bits (D15–D0), five address bits (A4–A0),
two control bits (C1, C0), and a fill zero. The address
code selects the output channel as shown in Table 2. The
control code configures the device as follows:
1) If C1 = 1, Immediate Update Mode is selected.
If C1 = 0, Burst Mode is selected.
2) If C0 = 0, the internal sequencer clock is selected. If
C0 = 1, the external sequencer clock is selected.
This must be repeated with each data word to main-
tain external input.

The operating modes can also be selected externally
through CLKSEL and IMMED. In the case where the
control bit in the serial word and the external signal
conflict, the signal that is a logic “1” is dominant.
Modes of Operation
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 feature three modes
of operation:
1) Sequence Mode
2) Immediate Update Mode
3) Burst Mode
Sequence Mode
Sequence mode is the default operating mode. The
internal sequencer continuously scrolls through the
SRAM, updating each of the 32 SHAs. At each SRAM
address location, the stored 16-bit DAC code is loaded
to the DAC. Once settled, the DAC output is acquired
by the corresponding SHA. Using the internal
sequencer clock, the process typically takes 320µs to
update all 32 SHAs (10µs per channel). Using an exter-
nal sequencer clock the update process takes 128
clock cycles (four clock cycles per channel).
Immediate Update Mode
Immediate update mode is used to change the con-
tents of a single SRAM location, and update the corre-
sponding SHA output. In Immediate Update Mode, the
selected output is updated before the sequencer
resumes operation. Select Immediate Update Mode by
driving either IMMED or C1 high.
The sequencer is interrupted when CS is taken low. The
input word is then stored in the proper SRAM address.
The DAC conversion and SHA sample in progress are
completed transparent to the serial bus activity. The
SRAM location of the addressed channel is then modi-
fied with the new data. The DAC and SHA are updated
with the new voltage. The sequencer then resumes
scrolling at the interrupted SRAM address.
This operation can take up to two cycles of the 10µs
sequencer clock. Up to one cycle is needed to allow the
sequencer to complete the operation in progress before
it is freed to update the new channel. An additional
cycle is required to read the new data from memory,
update the DAC, and strobe the sample-and-hold. The
sequencer resumes scrolling from the location at which
it was interrupted. Normal sequencing is suppressed
while loading data, thus preventing other channels from
being refreshed. Under conditions of extremely frequent
Immediate Updates (i.e., 1000 successive updates), this
can result in unacceptable droop.
Figure 5 shows an example of an immediate update
operation. In this example, data for channel 20 is
loaded while channel 7 is being refreshed. The
sequencer operation is interrupted, and no other chan-
nels are refreshed as long as CS is held low. Once CS
returns high, and the remainder of an fSEQ period (if
any) has expired, channel 20 is updated to the new
data. Once channel 20 has been updated, the

sequencer resumes normal operation at the interrupted
channel 7.
Burst Mode
Burst Mode allows multiple SRAM locations to be
loaded at high speed. During Burst Mode, the output
voltages are not updated until the data burst is com-
plete and control returns to the sequencer. Select Burst
Mode by driving both IMMED and C1 low.
The sequencer is interrupted when CS is taken low. All
or part of the memory can be loaded while CS is low.
Each data word is loaded into its specified SRAM
address. The DAC conversion and SHA sample in
progress are completely transparent to the serial bus
activity. When CS is taken high, the sequencer resumes
scrolling at the interrupted SRAM address. New values
are updated when their turn comes up in the sequence.
After Burst Mode is used, it is recommended that at
least one full sequencer loop (320µs) is allowed to
occur before the serial port is accessed again. This
ensures that all outputs are updated before the
sequencer is interrupted.
Figure 6 shows an example of a burst mode operation.
As with the immediate update example, CS falls while
channel 7 is being refreshed. Data for multiple chan-
nels is loaded, and no channels are refreshed as long
as CS remains low. Once CS returns high, sequencing
resumes with channel 7 and continues normal refresh
operation. Thirty-three fSEQ cycles are required before
all channels have been updated.
External Sequencer Clock
An external clock may be used to control the
sequencer, altering the output update rate. The
sequencer runs at 1/4 the frequency of the supplied
clock (ECLK). The external clock option is selected by
driving either C0 or CLKSEL high.
When CLKSEL is asserted, the internal clock oscillator
is disabled. This feature allows synchronizing the
sequencer to other system operations, or shutting down
of the sequencer altogether during high-accuracy sys-
tem measurements. The low 1mV/s droop of these
devices ensures that no appreciable degradation of the
output voltages occurs, even during extended periods
of time when the sequencer is disabled.
Power-On Reset
A power-on reset (POR) circuit sets all channels to 0V
(code 4F2C hex) in sequence, requiring 320µs. This
prevents damage to downstream ICs due to arbitrary
reference levels being presented following system
power-up. This same function is available by driving
RST low. During the reset operation, the sequencer is
run by the internal clock, regardless of the state of
CLKSEL. The reset process cannot be interrupted, seri-
al inputs will be ignored until the entire reset process is
complete.
Applications Information
Power Supplies and Bypassing
Grounding and power-supply decoupling strongly influ-
ence device performance. Digital signals may couple
through the reference input, power supplies, and
ground connection. Proper grounding and layout can
reduce digital feedthrough and crosstalk. At the device
level, a 0.1µF capacitor is required for the VDD, VSS,
and VL_ pins. They should be placed as close to the
pins as possible. More substantial decoupling at the
board level is recommended and is dependent on the
number of devices on the board (Figure 7).
The MAX5631/MAX5632/MAX5633 have three separate
+5V logic power supplies, VLDAC, VLOGIC, and VLSHA.
VLDAC powers the 16-bit digital-to-analog converter,
VLSHA powers the control logic of the SHA array, and
VLOGIC powers the serial interface, sequencer, internal
clock and SRAM. Additional filtering of VLDAC and
VLSHA improves the overall performance of the device.
