Working Principles

The MAX525ACPP is a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that converts digital signals into corresponding analog voltages. It utilizes a 12-bit resolution to provide high precision in generating analog outputs. The digital inputs (DB15-DB0) determine the desired analog voltage level, which is then output through the OUT pin. The DAC operates on a +5V supply voltage and consumes low power (10mW). The reference voltage (VREF) sets the maximum output voltage range.
