The MAX110/MAX111 analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) use an internal auto-calibration technique to achieve 14-bit resolution plus overrange, with no external components. Operating supply current is only 550µA (MAX110) and reduces to 4µA in power-down mode, making these ADCs ideal for high-resolution battery-powered or remote-sensing applications. A fast serial interface simplifies signal routing and opto-isolation, saves microcontroller pins, and offers compatibility with SPI™, QSPI™, and MICROWIRE™. The MAX110 operates with ±5V supplies, and converts differential analog signals in the -3V to +3V range. The MAX111 operates with a single +5V supply and converts differential analog signals in the ±1.5V range, or single-ended signals in the 0V to +1.5V range.Internal calibration allows for both offset and gain-error correction under microprocessor (µP) control. Both devices are available in space-saving 16-pin DIP and SO packages, as well as an even smaller 20-pin SSOP package.ApplicationsData AcquisitionPanel MetersProcess ControlTemperature MeasurementWeigh Scales

The MAX1280/MAX1281 12-bit ADCs combine an 8-channel analog-input multiplexer, high-bandwidth track/hold, and serial interface with high conversion speed and low power consumption. The MAX1280 operates from a single +4.5V to +5.5V supply; the MAX1281 operates from a single +2.7V to +3.6V supply. Both devices' analog inputs are software configurable for unipolar/bipolar and single-ended/pseudo-differential operation.The 4-wire serial interface connects directly to SPI™/QSPI™/MICROWIRE™ devices without external logic. A serial strobe output allows direct connection to TMS320-family digital signal processors. The MAX1280/MAX1281 use an external serial-interface clock to perform successive-approximation analog-to-digital conversions. Both parts feature an internal +2.5V reference and a reference-buffer amplifier with a ±1.5% voltage-adjustment range. An external reference with a 1V to VDD1 range may also be used.The MAX1280/MAX1281 provide a hard-wired active-low SHDN pin and four software-selectable power modes (normal operation, reduced power, fast power-down, and full power-down). These devices can be programmed to automatically shut down at the end of a conversion or to operate with reduced power. When using the power-down modes, accessing the serial interface automatically powers up the devices, and the quick turn-on time allows them to be powered down between all conversions. This technique can cut supply current to under 100µA at reduced sampling rates.The MAX1280/MAX1281 are available in 20-pin TSSOP packages. These devices are higher-speed versions of the MAX146/MAX147 (for more information, see the respective data sheet).ApplicationsBattery-Powered ApplicationsData AcquisitionMedical InstrumentsPen DigitizersPortable Data LoggingProcess Control
