Hi,

I've just been playing with and got the MAX5842 I2C QUAD DAC to spring in to life. I know Gary wanted to work with this, so I hope this will help at least one person!

Here are my notes:

including working example add the end.

Hope this is useful,

Simon

Could you post a simple schematic? I think I am still hung up on the pullup resistors. Also am not sure if you used 5VDC or 3.3VDC as the 5842 Vdd
