Data is clocked out of the MAX194 on CLK’s falling
edge and can be clocked into the µP on the rising
edge or the following falling edge. If you clock data in
on the rising edge (SPI/QSPI with CPOL = 0 and CPHA
= 0; standard MicroWire™: Hitachi H8), the maximum
CLK rate is given by:

where t

CD

is the MAX194’s CLK-to-DOUT valid delay

and t

SD

is the data setup time for your µP.

If clocking data in on the falling edge (CPOL = 0,
CPHA = 1), the maximum CLK rate is given by:

Do not exceed the maximum CLK frequency given in
the

Electrical Characteristics

table. To clock data in on

the falling edge, your processor hold time must not
exceed t

CD

minimum (100ns).

While QSPI can provide the required 20 CLK cycles as
two continuous 10-bit transfers, SPI is limited to 8-bit
transfers. This means that with SPI, a conversion must
consist of three 8-bit transfers. Ensure that the pauses
between 8-bit operations at your selected clock rate
are short enough to maintain a 20ms or shorter conver-
sion time, or the leakage of the capacitive DAC may
cause errors.
