500ksps, Low-Power,
Serial 12-/10-/8-Bit ADCs
The MAX11661−MAX11666 are 12-/10-/8-bit, compact,
low-power, successive approximation analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs). These high-performance ADCs include
a high-dynamic range sample-and-hold and a high-speed
serial interface. These ADCs accept a full-scale input from
0V to the power supply or to the reference voltage.
The MAX11662/MAX11664/MAX11666 feature dual, single-ended analog inputs connected to the ADC core
using a 2:1 MUX. The devices also include a separate
supply input for data interface and a dedicated input
for reference voltage. In contrast, the single-channel
devices generate the reference voltage internally from
the power supply.
These ADCs operate from a 2.2V to 3.6V supply and
consume only 3.3mW. The devices include full powerdown mode and fast wake-up for optimal power management and a high-speed 3-wire serial interface. The
3-wire serial interface directly connects to SPI, QSPIK,
and MICROWIRE® devices without external logic.
Excellent dynamic performance, low voltage, low power,
ease of use, and small package size make these converters ideal for portable battery-powered data-acquisition applications, and for other applications that demand
low-power consumption and minimal space.
These ADCs are available in a 10-pin FMAX® package,
and a 6-pin SOT23 package. These devices operate
over the -40NC to +125NC temperature range.

MAX11661–MAX11666
500ksps, Low-Power,
Serial 12-/10-/8-Bit ADCs
Detailed Description
throughput rates. The wake-up and power-down feature
is controlled by using the SPI interface as described in
the Operating Modes section.
The MAX11661–MAX11666 are fast, 12-/10-/8-bit, lowpower, single-supply ADCs. The devices operate from
a 2.2V to 3.6V supply and consume only 2.98mW
(VDD = 2.2V) or 4.37mW (VDD = 3V). These devices
are capable of sampling at full rate when driven by
an 8MHz clock. The dual-channel devices provide a
separate digital supply input (OVDD) to power the digital interface enabling communication with 1.5V, 1.8V,
2.5V, or 3V digital systems.
Serial Interface
The devices feature a 3-wire serial interface that directly
connects to SPI, QSPI, and MICROWIRE devices without
external logic. Figures 1 and 5 show the interface signals for a single conversion frame to achieve maximum
throughput.
The falling edge of CS defines the sampling instant.
Once CS transitions low, the external clock signal
(SCLK) controls the conversion.
The conversion result appears at DOUT, MSB first, with a
leading zero followed by the 12-bit, 10-bit, or 8-bit result.
A 12-bit result is followed by two trailing zeros, a 10-bit
result is followed by four trailing zeros, and an 8-bit result
is followed by six trailing zeros. See Figures 1 and 5.
The SAR core successively extracts binary-weighted bits
in every clock cycle. The MSB appears on the data bus
during the 2nd clock cycle with a delay outlined in the
timing specifications. All extracted data bits appear successively on the data bus with the LSB appearing during
the 13th/11th/9th clock cycle for 12-/10-/8-bit operation.
The serial data stream of conversion bits is preceded by
a leading “zero” and succeeded by trailing “zeros.” The
data output (DOUT) goes into a high-impedance state
during the 16th clock cycle.
The dual-channel devices feature a dedicated reference input (REF). The input signal range for AIN1/AIN2
is defined as 0V to VREF with respect to AGND. The
single-channel devices use VDD as the reference. The
input signal range of AIN is defined as 0V to VDD with
respect to GND.
These ADCs include a power-down feature allowing
minimized power consumption at 2.5FA/ksps for lower

The source impedance of the external driving stage in
conjunction with the sampling switch resistance affects
the settling performance. The THD vs. Input Resistance
graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics shows
THD sensitivity as a function of the signal source impedance. Keep the source impedance at a minimum for
high-dynamic-performance applications. Use a highperformance op amp such as the MAX4430 to drive the
analog input, thereby decoupling the signal source and
the ADC.
Analog Input
The devices produce a digital output that corresponds to
the analog input voltage within the specified operating
range of 0V to VREF for the dual-channel devices and 0V
to VDD for the single-channel devices.
While the ADC is in conversion mode, the sampling
switch is open presenting a pin capacitance, CP (CP
= 5pF), to the driving stage. See the Applications
Information section for information on choosing an
appropriate buffer for the ADC.
Figure 6 shows an equivalent circuit for the analog input
AIN (for single-channel devices) and AIN1/AIN2 (for
dual-channel devices). Internal protection diodes D1/D2
confine the analog input voltage within the power rails
(VDD, GND). The analog input voltage can swing from
GND - 0.3V to VDD + 0.3V without damaging the device.
ADC Transfer Function
The output format is straight binary. The code transitions midway between successive integer LSB values
such as 0.5 LSB, 1.5 LSB, etc. The LSB size for singlechannel devices is VDD/2n and for dual-channel devices
is VREF/2n, where n is the resolution. The ideal transfer
characteristic is shown in Figure 10.
The electric load presented to the external stage driving the analog input varies depending on which mode
the ADC is in: track mode vs. conversion mode. In track
mode, the internal sampling capacitor CS (16pF) has to
be charged through the resistor R (R = 50I) to the input
voltage. For faithful sampling of the input, the capacitor
voltage on CS has to settle to the required accuracy during the track time.

Normal Mode
In normal mode, the devices are powered up at all times,
thereby achieving their maximum throughput rates.
Figure 7 shows the timing diagram of these devices in

input signal, starts a conversion, and frames the serialdata transfer.

Operating Modes
The ICs offer two modes of operation: normal mode and

with respect to sample rate.

To sustain the maximum sample rate, all devices have to
be resampled immediately after the 16th clock cycle. For
lower sample rates, the CS falling edge can be delayed
leaving DOUT in a high-impedance condition. Pull CS
high after the 10th SCLK falling edge (see the Operating
Modes section).

Power-Down Mode
In power-down mode, all bias circuitry is shut down
drawing typically only 1.3FA of leakage current. To save

conversions is ideal for saving power when sampling the
analog input infrequently.

To remain in normal mode, keep CS low until the falling
edge of the 10th SCLK cycle. Pulling CS high after the
10th SCLK falling edge keeps the part in normal mode.
Entering Power-Down Mode
To enter power-down mode, drive CS high between the
2nd and 10th falling edges of SCLK (see Figure 8). By
pulling CS high, the current conversion terminates and
DOUT enters high impedance.
Exiting Power-Down Mode
To exit power-down mode, implement one dummy conversion by driving CS low for at least 10 clock cycles
(see Figure 9). The data on DOUT is invalid during this
dummy conversion. The first conversion following the
dummy cycle contains a valid conversion result.
The power-up time equals the duration of the dummy
cycle, and is dependent on the clock frequency. The
power-up time for 500ksps operation (8MHz SCLK) is 2Fs.

the ADC between conversions by using the power-down
mode. Figure 12 shows for the 500ksps device that as
the sample rate is reduced, the device remains in the

Applications Information
Dual-Channel Operation
The MAX11662/MAX11664/MAX11666 feature dual-input
channels. These devices use a channel-select (CHSEL)
input to select between analog input AIN1 (CHSEL = 0)
or AIN2 (CHSEL = 1). As shown in Figure 13, the CHSEL
signal is required to change between the 2nd and 12th
clock cycle within a regular conversion to guarantee
proper switching between channels.
Layout, Grounding, and Bypassing
For best performance, use PCBs with a solid ground
plane. Ensure that digital and analog signal lines are
separated from each other. Do not run analog and digital
(especially clock) lines parallel to one another or digital
lines underneath the ADC package. Noise in the VDD
power supply, OVDD, and REF affects the ADC’s performance. Bypass the VDD, OVDD, and REF to ground with
0.1FF and 10FF bypass capacitors. Minimize capacitor
lead and trace lengths for best supply-noise rejection.
14-Cycle Conversion Mode
The ICs can operate with 14 cycles per conversion.
Figure 14 shows the corresponding timing diagram.
Observe that DOUT does not go into high-impedance
mode. Also, observe that tACQ needs to be sufficiently
long to guarantee proper settling of the analog input
voltage. See the Electrical Characteristics table for tACQ
requirements and the Analog Input section for a description of the analog inputs.
Choosing an Input Amplifier
It is important to match the settling time of the input
amplifier to the acquisition time of the ADC. The conversion results are accurate when the ADC samples the
input signal for an interval longer than the input signal’s
worst-case settling time. By definition, settling time is
the interval between the application of an input voltage
step and the point at which the output signal reaches

Figure 15 shows a typical application circuit. The
MAX4430, offering a settling time of 37ns at 16 bits, is
an excellent choice for this application. See the THD
vs. Input Resistance graph in the Typical Operating
Characteristics.
Choosing a Reference
For devices using an external reference, the choice of
the reference determines the output accuracy of the
ADC. An ideal voltage reference provides a perfect initial
accuracy and maintains the reference voltage independent of changes in load current, temperature, and time.
Considerations in selecting a reference include initial
voltage accuracy, temperature drift, current source,
sink capability, quiescent current, and noise. Figure 15
shows a typical application circuit using the MAX6126
to provide the reference voltage. The MAX6033 and
MAX6043 are also excellent choices.

and stays within a given error band centered on the
resulting steady-state amplifier output level. The ADC
input sampling capacitor charges during the sampling
cycle, referred to as the acquisition period. During this
acquisition period, the settling time is affected by the
input resistance and the input sampling capacitance.
This error can be estimated by looking at the settling of
an RC time constant using the input capacitance and
the source impedance over the acquisition time period.

Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity
Integral nonlinearity (INL) is the deviation of the values
on an actual transfer function from a straight line. For
these devices, the straight line is a line drawn between
the end points of the transfer function after offset and
gain errors are nulled.
Differential Nonlinearity
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is the difference between
an actual step width and the ideal value of 1 LSB. A DNL
error specification of ±1 LSB or less guarantees no missing codes and a monotonic transfer function.
Offset Error
The deviation of the first code transition (00 . . . 000) to
(00 . . . 001) from the ideal, that is, AGND + 0.5 LSB.
Gain Error
The deviation of the last code transition (111 . . . 110) to
(111 . . . 111) from the ideal after adjusting for the offset
error, that is, VREF - 1.5 LSB.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio and Distortion
(SINAD)
SINAD is a dynamic figure of merit that 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:


SIGNAL RMS
SINAD(dB)


NOISE + DISTORTION) RMS 
 (

Total Harmonic Distortion
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:


V 2 + V32 + V42 + V52 
THD

Aperture Jitter
where V1 is the fundamental amplitude and V2–V5 are
the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 5th-order harmonics.
Aperture Delay
SFDR is a dynamic figure of merit that indicates the lowest usable input signal amplitude. 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 with respect to the carrier (dBc).
Aperture jitter (tAJ) is the sample-to-sample variation in
the time between the samples.
Aperture delay (tAD) is the time between the falling edge
of sampling clock and the instant when an actual sample
is taken.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is a dynamic figure of merit that indicates the converter’s noise performance. For a waveform perfectly
reconstructed from digital samples, the theoretical maximum 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 error only and results directly
from the ADC’s resolution (N bits):
SNR (dB) (MAX) = (6.02 x N + 1.76) (dB)
In reality, there are other noise sources such as thermal
noise, reference noise, and clock jitter that also degrade
SNR. 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.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
Full-Power Bandwidth
Full-power bandwidth is the frequency at which the input
signal amplitude attenuates by 3dB for a full-scale input.
Full-Linear Bandwidth
Full-linear bandwidth is the frequency at which the
signal-to-noise ratio and distortion (SINAD) is equal to a
specified value.
Intermodulation Distortion
Any device with nonlinearities creates distortion products when two sine waves at two different frequencies
(f1 and f2) are applied into the device. Intermodulation
distortion (IMD) is the total power of the IM2 to IM5 intermodulation products to the Nyquist frequency relative to
the total input power of the two input tones, f1 and f2. The
individual input tone levels are at -6dBFS.
