Low-Power, Serial, 14-Bit DACs

______________________________________________________________________________________
User-Programmable Logic Output (UPO)
The UPO allows control of an external device through
the serial interface, thereby reducing the number of
microcontroller I/O pins required. During power-down,
this output retains its digital state prior to shutdown.
When
CLR is pulled low, UPO resets to its programmed
default state. See Table 1 for specific commands to
control the UPO.
Reset (RS) and Clear (
CLR)
The MAX5170/MAX5172 offers a clear pin which resets
the output voltage. If RS = DGND, then
CLR resets the
output voltage to the minimum voltage (0 if OS =
AGND). If RS = V
DD
, then
CLR resets the output volt-
age to midscale. In either case,
CLR resets UPO to its
programmed default state.
