• Number of D/A Converters: 2
• Output Type: Voltage - Buffered
• Data Interface: SPI
• Reference Type: External
• Supply Voltages: 5V (Analog and Digital)
• Settling Time: 15µs (Typ)
• INL/DNL: ±0.5 (Max), ±1 (Max)
• Architecture: R-2R
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C ~ 70°C
• Package / Case: 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

All identified substitutes maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility with the original MAX5154ACEE component.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MAX5154ACEE+ (Direct Manufacturer Equivalent): This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the original MAX5154ACEE while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The tubed packaging format provides standard component handling and storage compatibility. Selection of MAX5154ACEE+ is appropriate for applications requiring direct form-fit-function replacement with improved regulatory compliance and ongoing manufacturer support.

MAX5156ACEE+ (Parametric Equivalent): This part delivers equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility across all specified parameters. The MAX5156ACEE+ is an active product with ROHS3 compliance. Selection of MAX5156ACEE+ is appropriate for applications where the base product number variation does not impact system design or documentation requirements.

Both substitute parts provide superior product lifecycle status compared to the obsolete MAX5154ACEE, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory compliance for new designs or production continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX5154ACEE+ directly replace MAX5154ACEE in existing designs?

A: Yes. MAX5154ACEE+ maintains identical electrical specifications, pin configuration, and 16-SSOP package dimensions. No circuit modifications are required for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between MAX5154ACEE+ and MAX5156ACEE+?

A: Both parts are parametrically equivalent across all electrical and mechanical specifications provided. The primary difference is the base product number designation (MAX5154 versus MAX5156). Both are active products with ROHS3 compliance and identical performance characteristics for the specified parameters.

Q: Why is the original MAX5154ACEE classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active production and support. Active equivalent parts (MAX5154ACEE+ and MAX5156ACEE+) are available to ensure design continuity and supply chain reliability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: MAX5154ACEE+ is supplied in tubed packaging. MAX5156ACEE+ is also supplied in tubed packaging. Both maintain the 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width) case format with surface mount compatibility.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. Both MAX5154ACEE+ and MAX5156ACEE+ are ROHS3 compliant, whereas the original MAX5154ACEE is RoHS non-compliant. This provides improved environmental and regulatory compliance for new applications.

Q: Are all three parts pin-compatible?

A: Yes. MAX5154ACEE, MAX5154ACEE+, and MAX5156ACEE+ share identical pin configuration and 16-SSOP package dimensions, enabling direct PCB-level substitution without layout modifications.
