Evaluates: MAX1068/MAX1168
General Description
The MAX1168 evaluation system (EV system) is a complete 8-channel, 16-bit data-acquisition system that is
comprised of a MAX1168 evaluation kit (EV kit) and a
Maxim 68HC16MODULE-DIP microcontroller (µC)
module.
Order the complete EV system (MAX1168EVC16) for a
comprehensive evaluation of the MAX1168 using a personal computer (PC). Order the EV kit (MAX1168EVKIT)
separately if the 68HC16MODULE-DIP module has
been purchased with a previous Maxim EV system, or
for custom use in other µC-based systems.

Quick Start
Recommended Equipment
• MAX1168EVC16 (MAX1168EVKIT board and
68HC16MODULE-DIP)
• Three DC power supplies:
+8V to +20V at 0.25A
+5V at 0.2A
-5V at 0.2A
• Analog signal source:
0 to 4.096V
• Windows 95/98/2000/XP-compatible computer with
an available serial (COM) port
• 9-pin I/O extension cable (straight-through femaleto-male)
Procedure
Do not turn on the power until all connections are
complete:
1) Verify jumper JU1 is ON, disabling DSP mode.
2) Verify jumper JU2 is connected to pins 2–3,
enabling an 8-bit-wide data-transfer mode.
3) Carefully connect the boards by aligning the 40-pin
connector of the MAX1168 EV kit with the 40-pin
header of the 68HC16MODULE-DIP module. Gently
press them together. The two boards should be
flush against one another.
4) Ensure that the µC module’s SW1 switch is in the
OFF position.
5) Connect the +8V to +20V power supply to the µC
module’s terminal block (J2), located next to the
ON/OFF switch (SW1) along the top edge of the µC
module. Observe the polarity marked on the board.
6) Connect the +5V power supply to the VDD pad
(with respect to the GND pad) on the MAX1168 EV
kit board.
7) Connect the -5V power supply to the VEE pad (with
respect to the GND pad) on the MAX1168 EV kit
board.
8) Connect the 9-pin serial cable from the computer’s
serial port to the µC module’s DB9 connector (J3).
9) Install the MAX1168 EV kit software on your computer by running the INSTALL.EXE program on the
CD-ROM. The program files are copied and icons
are created in the Programs section within the
Windows Start menu.
10) Turn on the +5V power supply. Next, turn on the -5V
power supply. Finally, turn on the +8V to +20V
power supply and turn on the µC module’s slide
switch SW1 to the ON position.
11) Start the MAX1168 EV kit program by clicking on its
icon in the Programs section within the Windows
Start menu.
12) The Windows program will prompt you to click OK
for Automatic serial port selection. When you click
OK, the Windows program automatically downloads
the file KIT1168.C16 to the module. Please wait
approximately 25 seconds for the download to
complete.
13) Apply an input signal (0 to +4.096V) between AIN0
and GND. Observe the AIN0 label on the running
Windows program.
Detailed Description of Software
The evaluation software’s main window shown in Figure
1 displays the voltage and code of the analog-input
signals AIN0–AIN7. The software supports manual read
or automatic read operations. Separate comboboxes
allow quick modifications to the MAX1168’s control
byte. The SPI™ serial clock frequency is adjustable
from 4.19MHz to 33kHz, and the software’s reference
value can be changed to match the applied external
reference. The provided Windows-compatible software
supports SPI mode (not DSP mode) and also only supports the MAX1168 EV kit when configured in 8-bitwide data-transfer mode. Table 1 describes all the controls on the evaluation software’s main window.

DESCRIPTION
The View menu makes the COM port debug form visible
The BlockSample menu is an EV kit software feature that allows a single channel to be sampled and
stored. The data block length is selectable and the data can be saved to a file. Block sampling is limited
to single-channel read modes only. SCAN[1:0] = 01 or 11 modes are not supported. For multiple-channel
reads, use the Read ADC button or the AutoRead checkbox.
The Device menu allows the user to evaluate either the MAX1168 or MAX1068
The Help menu allows the user to view the help file or the software’s about box
The Control Byte label shows the current control byte setting in hexadecimal
The CS[2:0] combobox selects the channel below:
000 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 0
001 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 1
010 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 2
011 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 3

101 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 5
110 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 6
111 CS2 CS1 CS0 = Channel 7
The SCAN[1:0] combobox selects the scan mode below:
00 SCAN1 SCAN0 = Single channel, no scan
01 SCAN1 SCAN0 = Sequentially scans channel 0 to CS[2:0]
10 SCAN1 SCAN0 = Sequentially scans channel 4 to CS[2:0]; CS[2:0] ≥ 4
11 SCAN1 SCAN0 = Scan channel CS[2:0] eight times
The SEL[1:0] combobox selects the reference mode below:
00 SEL1 SEL0 = Internal reference mode
01 SEL1 SEL0 = EV kit software does not support this mode
10 SEL1 SEL0 = EV kit software does not support this mode
11 SEL1 SEL0 = External reference mode
The CLK combobox selects the clock mode below:
0 EXT CLK
1 INT CLK
The SPI SCLK Frequency combobox selections are:
02: 4.19MHz

CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The Set Vref button allows the user to specify the actual reference voltage. The evaluation software
assumes a +4.096V reference voltage, unless otherwise specified. To override the default +4.096V software
reference value, measure the actual reference voltage at the terminal block (TB0) on the MAX1168 EV kit
board and enter the new reference voltage, without the volt unit. Finally, press the Set Vref button. The EV kit
software uses the value typed in the Vref field to translate the digital code to a voltage.
Pressing the Read ADC button performs the conversion(s) specified by the control byte and reads back
the result(s).
Checking the AutoRead checkbox performs the conversion(s) specified by the control byte and reads
back the result(s) every 500ms. A blinking asterisk indicates AutoRead is active.
The Exit button closes the program
Detailed Description of Hardware
MAX1168 EV System
The MAX1168 EV system is a complete 8-channel, 16bit data-acquisition system consisting of a MAX1168 EV
kit and a Maxim 68HC16MODULE-DIP µC module. The
MAX1168 EV system is used to evaluate the MAX1168
8-channel, 16-bit serial ADC. See the Quick Start section for setup and operating instructions. See Table 1 for
more information on the provided Windows software.
MAX1168 EV Kit
The MAX1168 EV kit board provides a proven layout for
evaluating the MAX1168 8-channel, 16-bit ADC and can
be obtained separately without the µC module for use
with an existing µC. The MAX1168 EV kit contains two
different types of buffers. U2 is a logic buffer to limit the
load capacitance that is seen by the DOUT line of the
MAX1168. U3–U10 are 16-bit accurate analog buffers
connected in the unity-gain configuration. U1 is powered
from VDD and U3–U10 are powered from VDD and VEE.
U3 is powered from the µC module (J1-7, J1-8). A terminal block (TB0) has also been provided on the MAX1168
EV kit board for evaluating external reference mode.
Refer to the MAX1167/MAX1168 or MAX1067/ MAX1068
data sheets to ensure all interface timing specifications
are met.
The MAX1168 and MAX1168 EV kit board support DSP
and 16-bit-wide data-transfer mode. Jumpers JU1 and
JU2 can be configured for these modes; however, the
supplied EV kit Windows-compatible software does not
support these two modes. Please refer to the
MAX1167/MAX1168 or MAX1067/MAX1068 data sheets
for more information.
