12-Bit, 100Msps ECL DAC
_______________General Description
The MAX5012 is a 12-bit, 100Msps digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed for digital modulation, direct digital synthesis, high-resolution imaging, and arbitrarywaveform-generation applications. This device is pinfor-pin compatible with the AD9712 with significantly improved settling time and glitch-energy performance. The MAX5012 is an ECL-compatible device. It features a fast 13ns settling time and low 15pV-s glitch impulse energy, which results in excellent spurious-free dynamic range characteristics. The MAX5012 is available in a 28-pin plastic DIP or PLCC package in the -40°C to +85°C extended-industrial temperature range.
