MAXIM MAX1338ETN

19-3151; Rev 1; 7/04
14-Bit, 4-Channel, Software-Programmable,
Multiranging, Simultaneous-Sampling ADC
The MAX1338 14-bit, analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
offers four simultaneously sampled, fully differential input
channels, with independent track-and-hold (T/H) circuitry
for each channel. The input channels are individually
software programmable for input ranges of ±10V, ±5V,
±2.5V, and ±1.25V. The input channels feature fault tolerance to ±17V. The internal T/H circuits have a 16ns
aperture delay and 100ps aperture-delay matching.
A 14-bit parallel bus provides the conversion result with
a maximum per-channel output rate of 150ksps
(600ksps for all four channels). The MAX1338 has an
on-board oscillator and 2.5V internal reference. An
external clock and/or reference can also be used.
The MAX1338 operates from a +5V supply for analog
inputs and digital core. The device operates from a +2.7V
to +5.25V supply for the digital I/O lines. The MAX1338
features two power-saving modes: standby mode and
shutdown mode. Standby mode allows rapid wake-up
and reduces quiescent current to 4mA (typ), and shutdown mode reduces sleep current to less than 10µA (typ).
The MAX1338 is available in an 8mm x 8mm x 0.8mm,
56-pin, thin QFN package. The device operates over
the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX1338 simultaneously samples four differential
analog inputs with internal T/H circuits, and sequentially
converts them to a digital code with a 14-bit ADC.
Output data is provided by a 14-bit parallel interface. At
power-up, all channels default to a ±10V input range.
Program different input ranges (±10V, ±5V, ±2.5V, or
±1.25V) using the configuration register. Different input
ranges between ±12V and ±1.0V are realized using an
12
external reference. All channels offer input protection to
±17V, independent of the selected input range.
The internal clock operates the ADC at 5MHz, or uses
an external conversion clock from 1MHz to 6MHz. EOC
goes low when the result of each conversion is available, and EOLC goes low when the last conversion
result is available. Standby and shutdown modes,
selectable through logic-control inputs, save power
between conversions. Figure 2 shows a block diagram
of the MAX1338.

Power-Supply Inputs
Three separate power supplies power the MAX1338. A
+5V analog supply, AVDD, powers the analog input and
converter sections. A +5V digital supply, DVDD, powers
the internal logic circuitry, and a +2.7V to +5V digital
supply (DRVDD), powers the parallel I/O and the control
I/O (see the Typical Operating Circuit). Bypass the
power supplies as indicated in the Layout, Grounding,
and Bypassing section. Power-supply sequencing is
not required for the MAX1338.
Analog Inputs
Software-Selectable Input Range
The MAX1338 provides four independent, softwareselectable, analog input voltage ranges for each channel. The selectable input ranges are ±VREF x 4 (the
power-up default condition), ±VREF x 2, ±VREF, and
±V REF x 0.5. Using the 2.5V internal reference, the
selectable input ranges are ±10V (power-up default),
±5V, ±2.5V, and ±1.25V. Program the analog input
ranges with the configuration register through the
parallel I/O. See the Configuration Register section for
programming details.
Input Protection
Protection at the analog inputs provides ±17V fault
immunity for the MAX1338. This protection circuit limits
the current at the analog inputs to less than ±2mA.
Input fault protection is active in standby, in shutdown,
during normal operation, and over all input ranges.
Track and Hold (T/H)
To preserve relative phase information between input
channels, each input channel has a dedicated T/H
amplifier. The rising edge of CONVST represents the
sampling instant for all channels. All samples are taken
within an aperture delay (tAD) of 16ns. The aperture
delay of all channels is matched to within 100ps.

MAX1338
14-Bit, 4-Channel, Software-Programmable,
Multiranging, Simultaneous-Sampling ADC
Figure 3 shows the equivalent analog input T/H circuit
for one analog input.
As conversion begins, the T/H circuits hold the analog
signals. After the 12th clock cycle (or 2.4µs in internal
clock mode) into the conversion process, the last analog input sample begins shifting through the converter,
and the T/H circuits begin to track the analog inputs
again in preparation for the next CONVST rising edge.
Due to the resistive load presented by the analog
inputs, any significant analog input source resistance,
RSOURCE, increases gain error. Limit R SOURCE to a
maximum of 20Ω to limit the effect to less than 0.1%.
Drive the input with a wideband buffer (>1MHz) that
can drive the ADC’s input impedance.
Selecting an Input Buffer
Most applications require an input buffer to achieve 14bit accuracy. Although slew rate and bandwidth are
important, the most critical specification is output impedance. Use a low-noise, low-distortion amplifier with low
output impedance, for best gain-accuracy performance.
Input Bandwidth
The input-tracking circuitry has a 1MHz small-signal
bandwidth. To avoid high-frequency signals being
aliased into the frequency band of interest, anti-alias filtering is recommended.

Data Throughput
The data throughput (fTH) of the MAX1338 is a function
of the clock speed (fCLK). The MAX1338 operates from
a 5MHz internal clock or an external clock between
1MHz and 6MHz. For fastest throughput, read the conversion result during conversion (Figure 5), and calculate data throughput using:

Clock Modes
The MAX1338 provides an internal clock of 5MHz.
Alternatively, use an external clock of 1MHz to 6MHz.
14
Internal Clock
Internal clock mode frees the microprocessor from the
burden of running the ADC conversion clock. For internal-clock operation, connect INTCLK/EXTCLK to AVDD
and CLK to DRGND. Note that INTCLK/EXTCLK is referenced to the analog power supply, AVDD. Total conversion time for all four channels using the internal
clock is 6µs (typ).

Applications Sections
Power-On Reset
At power-up, all channels default to a ±10V input range.
After applying power, allow a 1ms wake-up time to
elapse and perform one dummy conversion before
initiating first conversion.
Power Saving
Full Shutdown
During shutdown, the analog and digital circuits in the
MAX1338 power down and the device draws less than
0.06mA from AVDD, and less than 10µA from DVDD.
Select shutdown mode using the SHDN input. Force
SHDN high to enter shutdown mode. When coming out of
shutdown, allow the 1ms wake-up and then perform one
dummy conversion before making the first conversion.
Standby
Standby is similar to shutdown but the reference circuits remain powered up, allowing faster wake-up.
Enter standby by forcing STANDBY high. After coming
out of standby, perform a dummy conversion before
making the first conversion.
Digital Interface
The digital interface consists of two sections: a control
I/O section and a parallel I/O section. The control I/O
section includes the following control signals: chip
select (CS), read (RD), write (WR), end of conversion
(EOC), end of last conversion (EOLC), convert start
(CONVST), power-down (SHDN), standby (STANDBY),
and external-clock input (CLK).
The bidirectional parallel I/O section sets the 8-bit input
range configuration register using D0–D7 (see the
Configuration Register section) and outputs the 14-bit
conversion result using D0–D13. The I/O operations are
controlled by the control I/O signals RD, WR, and CS. All
parallel I/O bits are high impedance when either RD = 1
or CS = 1. Figures 4, 5, and 6 and the Timing Characteristics section detail the operation of the digital interface.

Configuration Register
The MAX1338 uses an 8-bit configuration word to set the
input range for each channel. Table 1 and Table 2 describe
the configuration word and the input-range settings.
Write to the configuration register by forcing CS and WR
low, loading bits D0–D7 onto the parallel bus, and then
forcing WR high. The configuration bits are latched on
the rising edge of WR (Figure 4). It is possible to write to
the configuration register at any point during the conversion sequence. However, it will not be active until the
next convert-start signal. At power-up, the configuration
register contains all zeros, making all channels default to
the maximum input range, -10V to +10V. Shutdown and
standby do not change the configuration register, but
the configuration register can be programmed while the
MAX1338 is in shutdown or standby modes.

External Clock
For external clock operation, force INTCLK/EXTCLK low
and connect an external clock source to CLK. Use an
external clock frequency from 1MHz to 6MHz with a
duty cycle between 40% and 60%. Choose a minimum
clock frequency of 1MHz to prevent linearity errors
caused by excessive droop in the T/H circuits.

Figure 5. Reading During a Conversion—Internal or External Clock
Starting a Conversion
Reading a Conversion Result
Internal Clock
For internal clock operation, force INTCLK/EXTCLK
high. To start a conversion using internal clock mode,
pull CONVST low for at least tCONVST. The T/H acquires
the signal while CONVST is low. An EOC signal pulses
low when the first result becomes available, and for
each subsequent result until the end of the conversion
cycle. The EOLC signal goes low when the last conversion result becomes available (Figure 6).
Reading During a Conversion
Figure 5 shows the interface signals to initiate a read
operation during a conversion cycle. CS can be held
low permanently, low during the RD cycles, or it can be
the same as RD. After initiating a conversion by bringing CONVST high, wait for EOC to go low (about 3.4µs
in internal clock mode) or 17 clock cycles (external
clock mode) before reading the first conversion result.
Read the conversion result by bringing RD low, which
latches the data to the parallel digital output bus. Bring
RD high to release the digital bus. Wait for the next
falling edge of EOC (about 600ns in internal clock
mode or three clock cycles in external clock mode)
before reading the next result. When the last result is
available, EOLC goes low, along with EOC. Wait three
clock cycles, tQUIET, before starting the next conversion cycle.
External Clock
For external clock operation, force INTCLK/EXTCLK
low. To start a conversion using external clock mode,
pull CONVST low for at least tCONVST. The T/H circuits
track the input signal while CONVST is low. Conversion
begins on the rising edge of CONVST. Apply an external clock to CLK. To avoid T/H droop degrading the
sampled analog input signals, the first CLK pulse must
occur within 10µs after the rising edge of CONVST and
have a minimum 1MHz clock frequency. The first conversion result is available for read on the rising edge of
the 17th clock cycle, and subsequent conversions on
every 3rd clock cycle thereafter, as indicated by EOC
and EOLC.
16
Reading After a Conversion
Figure 6 shows the interface signals for a read operation
after a conversion using an external clock. At the falling
of EOLC, on the 26th clock pulse after the initiation of a
conversion, driving CS and RD low places the first conversion result onto the parallel I/O bus. Read the conversion result on the rising edge of RD. Successive low
pulses of RD place the successive conversion results

Transfer Functions
Digital Correction
Factory trim procedures digitally shift the transfer function to reduce bipolar zero-code offset to less than
±4 LSBs (typ). Depending on initial conditions, the
transfer function is shifted up or down, as required. The
maximum shift that any transfer function experiences is
64 codes, which can have a small effect at the
extremes of the transfer function, as shown in Figure 7.

Applications Information
Layout, Grounding, and Bypassing
For best performance, the board layout must follow
some simple guidelines. Separate the control I/O and
parallel I/O signals from the analog signals, and run the
clock signals separate from everything. Do not run analog and digital (especially clock) lines parallel to one
another, or digital lines underneath the ADC package.
Run the parallel I/O signals together as a bundle.
The MAX1338 has an exposed underside pad for a
low-inductance ground connection and low thermal
resistance. Connect the exposed pad to the circuit
board ground plane. Figure 12 shows the recommended system ground connections. Establish an analog
ground point at AGND and a digital ground point at
DGND. Connect all analog grounds to the analog
ground point. Connect all digital grounds to the digital
ground point. For lowest noise operation, make the
power-supply ground returns as low impedance and as
short as possible. Connect the analog ground point to
the digital ground point at one location.
High-frequency noise in the power supplies degrades
the ADC’s performance. Bypass AVDD to AGND with a
parallel combination of 0.1µF and 2.2µF capacitors,
bypass DVDD to DGND with a parallel combination of
0.1µF and 2.2µF capacitors, and bypass DRVDD to
DRGND with a parallel combination of 0.1µF and 2.2µF
capacitors. If the supply is very noisy use a ferrite bead
as a lowpass filter, as shown in Figure 12.

Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Integral nonlinearity is the deviation of the values on an
actual transfer function from a straight line. For these
devices, this straight line is a line drawn between the
endpoints of the transfer function, once offset and gain
errors have been nulled.

Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between an
actual step width and the ideal value of 1 LSB. For
these devices, the DNL of each digital output code is
measured and the worst-case value is reported in the
Electrical Characteristics table. A DNL error specification of less than ±1 LSB guarantees no missing codes
and a monotonic transfer function.
Offset Error
Offset error indicates how well the actual transfer function matches the ideal transfer function at a single point.
Typically, the point at which the offset error is specified
is at or near the zero scale of the transfer function or at
or near the midscale of the transfer function.
For the MAX1338, the ideal zero-scale digital output
transition from 0x3FFF to 0x0000 occurs with an analog
input voltage of zero. Offset error is the amount of analog input-voltage deviation between the measured input
voltage and the calculated input voltage at the zeroscale transition.

Gain Error
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
Gain error indicates how well the slope of the actual
transfer function matches the slope of the ideal transfer
function. For the MAX1338, the gain error is the difference between the measured positive full-scale and
negative full-scale transition points minus the difference
between the ideal positive full-scale and negative fullscale bipolar transition points.
SNR is a measure of the converter’s noise characteristics. For a waveform perfectly reconstructed from digital samples, SNR is the ratio of the full-scale analog
input (RMS value) to the RMS quantization error (residual error). The ideal, theoretical minimum analog-to-digital noise is caused by quantization noise error only and
results directly from the ADC’s resolution (N bits):

Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion (SINAD)
SINAD indicates the converter’s noise and distortion
performance.
SINAD is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS signal to the RMS noise plus distortion. RMS noise plus
distortion includes all spectral components to the
Nyquist frequency excluding the fundamental and the
DC offset.

Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
ENOB specifies the global accuracy of an ADC at a specific input frequency and sampling rate. An ideal ADC’s
error consists of quantization noise only. ENOB for a fullscale sinusoidal input waveform is computed from:
ENOB =
SINAD − 1.76
6.02
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is a dynamic indication of how much harmonic
distortion the converter adds to the signal.
THD is the ratio of the RMS sum of the first five harmonics of the fundamental signal to the fundamental itself.
This is expressed as:
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the ratio of the RMS amplitude of the fundamental (maximum signal component) to the RMS value
of the next largest spurious component, excluding DC
offset. SFDR is specified in decibels relative to the carrier (dBc).
Aperture Delay
Aperture delay (tAD) is the time delay from the sampling
clock edge to the instant when an actual sample is taken.
Aperture Jitter
Aperture jitter (tAJ) is the sample-to-sample variation in
aperture delay.
Channel-to-Channel Isolation
Channel-to-channel isolation indicates how well each
analog input is isolated from the others. The channel-tochannel isolation for the MAX1338 is measured by
applying a DC -0.5dBFS sine wave to the ON channel
while a high frequency 10kHz -0.5dBFS sine wave is
applied to all OFF channels. An FFT is taken for the ON
channel. From the FFT data, channel-to-channel
crosstalk is expressed in dB as the power ratio of the
DC signal applied to the ON channel and the high-frequency crosstalk signal from the OFF channels.
Power-Supply Rejection (PSRR)
PSRR is defined as the shift in gain error when the analog power supply is changed from 4.75V to 5.25V.
Small-Signal Bandwidth
A -20dBFS sine wave is applied to the MAX1338 input.
The frequency is increased until the amplitude of the
digitized conversion result decreases 3dB.
Full-Power Bandwidth
A -0.5dBFS sine wave is applied to the MAX1338 input.
The frequency is increased until the amplitude of the
digitized conversion result decreases 3dB.

MAX1338
SNR = (6.02 x N + 1.76)dB
where N = 14 bits. In reality, there are other noise
sources such as thermal noise, reference noise, and
clock jitter. SNR is computed by taking the ratio of the
RMS signal to the RMS noise. RMS noise includes all
spectral components to the Nyquist frequency excluding the fundamental, the first five harmonics, and the
DC offset.
