MAX1291/MAX1293
General Description
The MAX1291/MAX1293 low-power, 12-bit analog-todigital converters (ADCs) feature a successive-approximation ADC, automatic power-down, fast wake-up
(2µs), an on-chip clock, +2.5V internal reference, and a
high-speed, byte-wide parallel interface. They operate
with a single +3V analog supply and feature a VLOGIC
pin that allows them to interface directly with a +1.8V to
+5.5V digital supply.
Power consumption is only 5.7mW (VDD = VLOGIC) at
the maximum sampling rate of 250ksps. Two softwareselectable power-down modes enable the MAX1291/
MAX1293 to be shut down between conversions;
accessing the parallel interface returns them to normal
operation. Powering down between conversions can
cut supply current to under 10µA at reduced sampling
rates.
Both devices offer software-configurable analog inputs
for unipolar/bipolar and single-ended/pseudo-differential operation. In single-ended mode, the MAX1291 has
8 input channels and the MAX1293 has 4 input channels (4 and 2 input channels, respectively, when in
pseudo-differential mode).

TYP
Note 1: Tested at VDD = +3V, COM = GND, unipolar single-ended input mode.
Note 2: Relative accuracy is the deviation of the analog value at any code from its theoretical value after offset and gain errors have
been removed.
Note 3: Offset nulled.
Note 4: On channel is grounded; sine wave applied to off channels.
Note 5: Conversion time is defined as the number of clock cycles times the clock period; clock has 50% duty cycle.
Note 6: Input voltage range referenced to negative input. The absolute range for the analog inputs is from GND to VDD.
Note 7: External load should not change during conversion for specified accuracy.
Note 8: When bit 5 is set low for internal acquisition, WR must not return low until after the first falling clock edge of the conversion.

Converter Operation
The MAX1291/MAX1293 ADCs use a successiveapproximation (SAR) conversion technique and an
input track/hold (T/H) stage to convert an analog input
signal to a 12-bit digital output. Their parallel 8+4 output format provides an easy interface to standard
microprocessors (µPs). Figure 2 shows the simplified
internal architecture of the MAX1291/MAX1293.
Single-Ended and
Pseudo-Differential Operation
The sampling architecture of the ADC’s analog comparator is illustrated in the equivalent input circuit in
Figure 3. In single-ended mode, IN+ is internally
switched to channels CH0–CH7 for the MAX1291
(Figure 3a) and to CH0–CH3 for the MAX1293 (Figure
3b), while IN- is switched to COM (Table 3).
In differential mode IN+ and IN- are selected from analog input pairs (Table 4) and are internally switched to
either of the analog inputs. This configuration is pseudo-differential in that only the signal at IN+ is sampled.
The return side (IN-) must remain stable within ±0.5LSB
(±0.1LSB for best performance) with respect to GND
during a conversion. To accomplish this, connect a
0.1µF capacitor from IN- (the selected input) to GND.
During the acquisition interval, the channel selected as
the positive input (IN+) charges capacitor CHOLD. At
the end of the acquisition interval, the T/H switch
opens, retaining charge on CHOLD as a sample of the
signal at IN+.
The conversion interval begins with the input multiplexer switching CHOLD from the positive input (IN+) to the
negative input (IN-). This unbalances node ZERO at the
comparator’s positive input. The capacitive digital-toanalog converter (DAC) adjusts during the remainder of
the conversion cycle to restore node ZERO to 0V within
the limits of 12-bit resolution. This action is equivalent to
transferring a 12pF[(VIN+) - (VIN-)] charge from CHOLD
to the binary-weighted capacitive DAC, which in turn
forms a digital representation of the analog input signal.

Analog Input Protection
Internal protection diodes, which clamp the analog
input to VDD and GND, allow each input channel to
swing within (GND - 300mV) to (VDD + 300mV) without
damage. However, for accurate conversions near full
scale, both inputs must not exceed (VDD + 50mV) or be
less than (GND - 50mV).
If an off-channel analog input voltage exceeds the
supplies by more than 50mV, limit the forward-bias
input current to 4mA.
10
The MAX1291/MAX1293 T/H stage enters its tracking
mode on the rising edge of WR. In external acquisition
mode, the part enters its hold mode on the next rising
edge of WR. In internal acquisition mode, the part
enters its hold mode on the fourth falling edge of clock
after writing the control byte. Note that in internal clock
mode this occurs approximately 1µs after writing the
control byte. In single-ended operation, IN- is connected to COM and the converter samples the positive (“+”)
input. In pseudo-differential operation, IN- connects to
the negative input (“-”), and the difference of (IN+) - (IN-)
is sampled. At the beginning of the next conversion, the
positive input connects back to IN+ and C HOLD
charges to the input signal.
The time required for the T/H stage to acquire an input
signal depends on how quickly its input capacitance is
charged. If the input signal’s source impedance is high,
the acquisition time lengthens, and more time must be
allowed between conversions. The acquisition time,
tACQ, is the maximum time the device takes to acquire
the signal and is also the minimum time required for the
signal to be acquired. Calculate this with the following
equation:
tACQ = 9 (RS + RIN) CIN
where RS is the source impedance of the input signal,
RIN (800Ω) is the input resistance, and CIN (12pF) is
the ADC’s input capacitance. Source impedances
below 3kΩ have no significant impact on the MAX1291/
MAX1293’s AC performance.
Higher source impedances can be used if a 0.01µF
capacitor is connected to the individual analog inputs.
Together with the input impedance, this capacitor
forms an RC filter, limiting the ADC’s signal bandwidth.
Input Bandwidth
The MAX1291/MAX1293 T/H stage offers a 250kHz fulllinear and a 3MHz full-power bandwidth, enabling
these parts to use undersampling techniques to digitize
high-speed transients and measure periodic signals
with bandwidths exceeding the ADCs sampling rate. To
avoid high-frequency signals being aliased into the frequency band of interest, anti-alias filtering is recommended.
Starting a Conversion
Initiate a conversion by writing a control byte that
selects the multiplexer channel and configures the
MAX1291/MAX1293 for either unipolar or bipolar operation. A write pulse (WR + CS) can either start an acquisition interval or initiate a combined acquisition plus
______________________________________________________________________________________
250ksps, +3V, 8-/4-Channel, 12-Bit ADCs
with +2.5V Reference and Parallel Interface
Internal Acquisition
Select internal acquisition by writing the control byte
with the ACQMOD bit cleared (ACQMOD = 0). This
causes the write pulse to initiate an acquisition interval
whose duration is internally timed. Conversion starts
when this acquisition interval ends (three external
cycles or approximately 1µs in internal clock mode)
(Figure 4). Note that when the internal acquisition is
combined with the internal clock, the aperture jitter can
be as high as 200ps. Internal clock users wishing to
achieve the 50ps jitter specification should always use
external acquisition mode.
External Acquisition
Use external acquisition mode for precise control of the
sampling aperture and/or dependent control of acquisition and conversion times. The user controls acquisition
and start-of-conversion with two separate write pulses.
The first pulse, written with ACQMOD = 1, starts an
acquisition interval of indeterminate length. The second
write pulse, written with ACQMOD = 0, terminates
acquisition and starts conversion on WR’s rising edge
(Figure 5).
The address bits for the input multiplexer must have the
same values on the first and second write pulse.
Power-down mode bits (PD0, PD1) can assume new
values on the second write pulse (see the Power-Down
Modes section). Changing other bits in the control byte
will corrupt the conversion.
Reading a Conversion
A standard interrupt signal INT is provided to allow the
MAX1291/MAX1293 to flag the microprocessor when
the conversion has ended and a valid result is available. INT goes low when the conversion is complete
and the output data is ready (Figures 4, 5). It returns
high on the first read cycle or if a new control byte is
written.

conversion. The sampling interval occurs at the end of
the acquisition interval. The ACQMOD (acquisition
mode) bit in the input control byte (Table 1) offers two
options for acquiring the signal: an internal and an
external acquisition. The conversion period lasts for 13
clock cycles in either the internal or external clock or
acquisition mode. Writing a new control byte during a
conversion cycle will abort the conversion and start a
new acquisition interval.

Internal Clock Mode
Select internal clock mode to release the µP from the
burden of running the SAR conversion clock. To select
this mode, bits D6 and D7 of the control byte must be
set to 1; the internal clock frequency is then selected,
resulting in a conversion time of 3.6µs. When using the
internal clock mode, tie the CLK pin either high or low
to prevent the pin from floating.
External Clock Mode
To select the external clock mode, bits D6 and D7 of
the control byte must be set to zero. Figure 6 shows the
clock and WR timing relationship for internal (Figure 6a)
and external (Figure 6b) acquisition modes with an
external clock. For proper operation, a 100kHz to
4.8MHz clock frequency with 30% to 70% duty cycle is
recommended. Operating the MAX1291/MAX1293 with
clock frequencies lower than 100kHz is not recommended because it will cause a voltage droop across

the hold capacitor in the T/H stage that will result in
degraded performance.
Digital Interface
Input (control byte) and output data are multiplexed on
a three-state parallel interface. This parallel interface
(I/O) can easily be interfaced with standard µPs. The
signals CS, WR, and RD control the write and read
operations. CS represents the chip select signal, which
enables a µP to address the MAX1291/MAX1293 as an
I/O port. When high, CS disables the CLK WR and RD
inputs and forces the interface into a high-impedance
(high-Z) state.
Input Format
The control byte is latched into the device on pins
D7–D0 during a write command. Table 2 shows the
control byte format.
Output Format
The output format for both the MAX1291/MAX1293 is
binary in unipolar mode and two’s complement in bipolar mode. When reading the output data, CS and RD
must be low. When HBEN = 0, the lower 8 bits are
read. With HBEN = 1, the upper 4 bits are available
and the output data bits D7–D4 are set either low in
unipolar mode or set to the value of the MSB in bipolar
mode (Table 5).

Internal and External Reference
Internal Reference
With the internal reference, the full-scale range is +2.5V
with unipolar inputs and ±1.25V with bipolar inputs. The
internal reference buffer allows for small adjustments
(±100mV) in the reference voltage. See Figure 7.
Note that the reference buffer must be compensated
with an external capacitor (4.7µF min) connected
between REF and GND to reduce reference noise and
switching spikes from the ADC. To further minimize
noise on the reference, connect a 0.01µF capacitor
between REFADJ and GND.
The MAX1291/MAX1293 can be used with an internal
or external reference voltage. An external reference
can be connected directly to REF or REFADJ.
An internal buffer is designed to provide +2.5V at REF for
the both the MAX1291 and the MAX1293. The internally
trimmed +1.22V reference is buffered with a +2.05V/V
gain.
External Reference
With both the MAX1291 and MAX1293, an external reference can be placed at either the input (REFADJ) or
the output (REF) of the internal reference buffer amplifier.
Using the REFADJ input makes buffering the external
reference unnecessary. The REFADJ input impedance
is typically 17kΩ.
__________Applications Information
Power-On Reset
When power is first applied, internal power-on reset circuitry activates the MAX1291/MAX1293 in external
clock mode and sets INT high. After the power supplies
stabilize, the internal reset time is 10µs, and no conversions should be attempted during this phase. When
using the internal reference, 500µs is required for VREF
to stabilize.

When applying an external reference to REF, disable
the internal reference buffer by connecting REFADJ to
V DD . The DC input resistance at REF is 25kΩ.
Therefore, an external reference at REF must deliver up
to 200µA DC load current during a conversion and
have an output impedance less than 10Ω. If the reference has higher output impedance or is noisy, bypass
it close to the REF pin with a 4.7µF capacitor.
Power-Down Modes
Save power by placing the converter in a low-current
shutdown state between conversions. Select standby
mode or shutdown mode via bits D6 and D7 of the control byte (Tables 1 and 2). In both software power-down
modes, the parallel interface remains active, but the
ADC does not convert.
ed. A rising edge on WR causes the MAX1291/MAX1293
to exit shutdown mode and return to normal operation.
To achieve full 12-bit accuracy with a 4.7µF reference
bypass capacitor, 500µs is required after power-up.
Waiting this 500µs in standby mode instead of in fullpower mode can reduce power consumption by a factor
of 3 or more. When using an external reference, only
50µs is required after power-up. Enter standby mode by
performing a dummy conversion with the control byte
specifying standby mode.
Note: Bypassing capacitors larger than 4.7µF between
REF and GND will result in longer power-up delays.
Transfer Function
Table 6 shows the full-scale voltage ranges for unipolar
and bipolar modes.
Standby Mode
While in standby mode, the supply current is 850µA
(typ). The part will power up on the next rising edge on
WR and is ready to perform conversions. This quick
turn-on time allows the user to realize significantly
reduced power consumption for conversion rates
below 250ksps.
Figure 8 depicts the nominal, unipolar input/output (I/O)
transfer function and Figure 9 shows the bipolar I/O
transfer function. Code transitions occur halfway
between successive-integer LSB values. Output coding
is binary, with 1LSB = (VREF/4096).
Shutdown Mode
Shutdown mode turns off all chip functions that draw quiescent current, reducing the typical supply current to
2µA immediately after the current conversion is complet-
When running at the maximum clock frequency of
4.8MHz, the specified throughput of 250ksps is
achieved by completing a conversion every 19 clock

sion cycles, and 2 read cycles. This assumes that the
results of the last conversion are read before the next
control byte is written. Throughputs up to 300ksps can
be achieved by first writing a control word to begin the
acquisition cycle of the next conversion, and then reading the results of the previous conversion from the bus
(Figure 10). This technique allows a conversion to be
completed every 16 clock cycles. Note that the switching of the data bus during acquisition or conversion
can cause additional supply noise, which may make it
difficult to achieve true 12-bit performance.
Layout, Grounding, and Bypassing
For best performance use printed circuit (PC) boards.
Wire-wrap configurations are not recommended since
the layout should ensure proper separation of analog
and digital traces. Do not run analog and digital lines
parallel to each other, and don’t lay out digital signal
paths underneath the ADC package. Use separate
analog and digital PC Board ground sections with only
one starpoint (Figure 11) connecting the two ground
systems (analog and digital). For lowest-noise operation, ensure the ground return to the star ground’s
power supply is low impedance and as short as possible. Route digital signals far away from sensitive analog
and reference inputs.
High-frequency noise in the power supply (VDD) could
influence the proper operation of the ADC’s fast comparator. Bypass VDD to the star ground with a network
of two parallel capacitors, 0.1µF and 4.7µF, located as
close as possible to the MAX1291/MAX1293s’ power
supply pin. Minimize capacitor lead length for best supply-noise rejection; add an attenuation resistor (5Ω) if
the power supply is extremely noisy.
VREF/2 + COM
Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity
Integral nonlinearity (INL) is the deviation of the values
on an actual transfer function from a straight line. This
straight line can be either a best-straight-line fit or a line
drawn between the endpoints of the transfer function,
once offset and gain errors have been nullified. The
static linearity parameters for the MAX1291/MAX1293
are measured using the endpoint method.
Differential Nonlinearity
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is the difference between
an actual step width and the ideal value of 1LSB. A
DNL error specification of less than 1LSB guarantees
no missing codes and a monotonic transfer function.
Aperture Definitions
Aperture jitter (tAJ) is the sample-to-sample variation in
the time between the samples. Aperture delay (tAD) is
the time between the rising edge of the sampling clock
and the instant when an actual sample is taken.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
For a waveform perfectly reconstructed from digital
samples, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the ratio of fullscale analog input (RMS value) to the RMS quantization
error (residual error). The ideal, theoretical minimum
analog-to-digital noise is caused by quantization error
only and results directly from the ADC’s resolution (N
bits):
SNR = (6.02 · N + 1.76)dB
In reality, there are other noise sources besides quantization noise: thermal noise, reference noise, clock jitter,
etc. Therefore, SNR is computed by taking the ratio of
the RMS signal to the RMS noise which includes all
spectral components minus the fundamental, the first
five harmonics, and the DC offset.
Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion
Signal-to-noise plus distortion (SINAD) is the ratio of the
fundamental input frequency’s RMS amplitude to RMS
equivalent of all other ADC output signals.
SINAD (dB) = 20 · log (SignalRMS / NoiseRMS)

Effective Number of Bits
Effective number of bits (ENOB) indicates the global
accuracy of an ADC at a specific input frequency and
sampling rate. An ideal ADC’s error consists of quantization noise only. With an input range equal to the fullscale range of the ADC, calculate the effective number
of bits as follows:
ENOB = (SINAD - 1.76) / 6.02
Total Harmonic Distortion
SUPPLIES
+3V
R* = 5Ω
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of the first five harmonics of the input signal to the
fundamental itself. This is expressed as:


THD = 20 ⋅log   V22 + V32 + V4 2 + V52  / V1


where V1 is the fundamental amplitude, and V2 through
V5 are the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 5th-order harmonics.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
Spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is the ratio of RMS
amplitude of the fundamental (maximum signal component) to the RMS value of the next largest distortion
component.
