MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414
General Description
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 are lowpower, general-purpose, multichannel data-acquisition
systems (DAS). These devices are optimized for lowpower applications. All the devices operate from a single +2.7V to +3.6V power supply and consume a
maximum of 1.15mA in Run mode and only 2.5µA in
Sleep mode.
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1414 feature a differential
8:1 input multiplexer to the ADC, a programmable
three-state digital output, an output to shutdown an
external power supply, and a data ready output from
the ADC. The MAX1408 has eight auxiliary analog
inputs, while the MAX1407/MAX1414 include four auxiliary analog inputs and two 10-bit force/sense DACs.
The MAX1414 features a 50mV trip threshold for the
signal-detect comparator while the others have a 0mV
trip threshold. The MAX1409 is a 20-pin version of the
DAS family with a differential 4:1 input multiplexer to the
ADC, one auxiliary analog input, and one 10-bit
force/sense DAC.

Sleep Voltage Monitor Timeout
Period
The delay for the sleep voltage monitor
output, RESET, to go high after AVDD rises
above the reset threshold (+1.8V when bit
VM = 1 and +2.7V, when bit VM = 0); this is

tDFON
The turn-on time for the high-frequency
clock; it is gated by an AND function with
three signals—the RESET signal, the internal
low voltage VDD monitor signal, and the
assertion of the PLL; the time delay is timed
from when the low-voltage monitor trips or
the RESET going high, whichever happens
later; FOUT always starts in the low state

DNL and INL are measured between code 010hex and 3FFhex.
Offset error is referenced to code 010hex.
Output swing is a function of external gain-setting feedback resistors and REF voltage.
Measured with no load on FOUT, DOUT, and the DAC amplifiers. SCLK is idle, and all digital inputs are at DGND or DVDD.
SHDN stays high if the PLL is on.
Actual worst-case performance is ±2.5LSB. Guaranteed limit of ±3.5LSB is due to production test limitation.
Guaranteed by design. Not production tested.

Detailed Information
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 are lowpower, general-purpose, multichannel DAS featuring a
multiplexed fully differential 16-bit ∑∆ analog-to-digital
converter (ADC), 10-bit force/sense digital-to-analog
converters (DAC), a real-time clock (RTC) with an
alarm, a bandgap voltage reference, a signal detect
comparator, two power-supply voltage monitors, wakeup control circuitry, and a high-frequency phase-locked
loop (PLL) clock output all controlled by a 3-wire serial
interface. (See Table 1 for the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 feature sets and Figures 1, 2, 3 for
the Functional Diagrams). These DAS directly interface
to various sensor outputs and once configured provide
the stimulus, conditioning, and data conversion, as well
as microprocessor support. Figure 4 is a Typical
Application Circuit for the MAX1407/MAX1414.
The 16-bit ∑∆ ADC is capable of programmable continuous conversion rates of 30Hz or 60Hz and gains of
1/3, 1, and 2V/V to suit applications with different power
and dynamic range constraints. The force/sense DACs
provide 10-bit linearity for precise sensor applications.

*MAX1414 HAS A +50mV SIGNAL-DETECT COMPARATOR THRESHOLD.
Figure 1. MAX1407/MAX1414 Functional Diagram
With the use of two external resistors, the DAC output
can go from 0.05V to AV DD - 0.2V. The ADCs and
DACs both utilize a precise low-drift 1.25V internal
bandgap reference for conversions and setting of the
full-scale range. For applications that require increased
accuracy, power-down the internal reference and connect an external reference at REF. The RTC is leap year
compensated until 9999 and provides an alarm function
that can be used to wake-up the system or cause an
interrupt at a predefined time. The power-supply voltage monitors detect when AV DD falls below a trip
threshold voltage at either +1.8V or +2.7V causing the
reset to be asserted. The 4-wire serial interface is used
to communicate directly between SPI, QSPI, and
MICROWIRE devices for system configuration and
readback functions.
Analog Input Protection
Internal protection diodes clamp the analog input to
AVDD and AGND, which allow the channel input pins to
swing from AGND - 0.3V to AVDD + 0.3V without damage. However, for accurate conversions near full scale,
the inputs must not exceed AVDD by more than 50mV
or be lower than AGND by 50mV.
16
Analog Mux
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1414 include a dual 8 to 1
multiplexer for the positive and negative inputs of the
ADC. The MAX1409 has a dual 4 to 1 multiplexer at the
inputs of the ADC. Figures 1, 2, and 3 illustrate which
signals are present at the inputs of each multiplexer for
the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414. The
MUXP and MUXN bits of the MUX register choose
which inputs will be seen at the input to the ADC
(Tables 4 and 5) and the signal-detect comparator. See
the MUX Register description under the On-Chip
Registers section for multiplexer functionality.
Input Buffers
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 provide
input buffers to isolate the analog inputs from the capacitive load presented by the ADC modulator (Figure 5 and
6). The buffers are chopper stabilized to reduce the effect
of their DC offsets and low-frequency noise. Since the
buffers can represent more than 25% of the total analog
power dissipation (typically 220µA), they may be shut
down in applications where minimum power dissipation is
required and the capacitive input load is not a concern
(see ADC and Power1 Registers). Disable the buffers in
applications where the inputs must operate close to
AGND or above +1.4V. The buffers are individually
enabled or disabled.

Figure 5. Analog Input—Buffered Mode
Buffered Mode
When used in buffered mode, the buffers isolate the
inputs from the sampling capacitors. The samplingrelated gain error is dramatically reduced since only a
18
small dynamic load is present from the chopper. The
multiplexer exhibits an input leakage current of 0.5nA
(typ). With high-source resistances, this leakage current may result in a large DC offset error.

Figure 6. Analog Input—Unbuffered Mode
Unbuffered Mode
When used in unbuffered mode, the switched capacitor
sampling front end of the modulator presents a dynamic load to the driving circuitry. The size of the internal
sampling capacitor and the input sampling frequency
(Figure 6) determines the dynamic load (see Dynamic
Input Impedance section). As the gain increases, the
input sampling capacitance also increases. Since the
MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 sample at a
constant rate for all gain settings, the dynamic load presented by the inputs varies with the gain setting.
PGA Gain
An integrated programmable-gain amplifier (PGA) provides three user-selectable gains: +1/3V/V, +1V/V, and
+2V/V to maximize the dynamic range of the ADC. Bits
GAIN1 and GAIN0 set the desired gain (see ADC
Register). The gain of +1/3V/V allows the direct measurement of the supply voltage through an internal multiplexer input or through an auxillary input.
ADC Modulator
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 perform
analog-to-digital conversions using a single-bit, second-order, switched-capacitor delta-sigma modulator.
The delta-sigma modulation converts the input signal
into a digital pulse train whose average duty cycle represents the digitized signal information. The pulse train
is then processed by a digital decimation filter.
The modulator provides 2nd-order frequency shaping
of the quantization noise resulting from the single bit
quantizer. The modulator is fully differential for maximum signal-to-noise ratio and minimum susceptibility to
power-supply noise. The modulator operates at one of
two different sampling rates resulting in an output data
rate of either 30Hz or 60Hz (see ADC Register).
ADC Digital Filter
The on-chip digital filter processes the 1-bit data
stream from the modulator using a SINC3 filter function.
The SINC3 filters settle in three data word periods. The
settling time is 3/60Hz or 50ms (for RATE bit in ADC
register set to 1) and 3/30Hz or 100ms (for RATE bit set
to “0”).
ADC Digital Filter Characteristics
The transfer function for a SINC3 filter function is that of
three cascaded SINC1 filters. This can be described in
the Z-domain by:

where N, the decimation factor, is the ratio of the modulator frequency fM to the output frequency fN.

ADC Offset Calibration
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 are capable of performing digital offset correction to eliminate
changes due to power-supply voltage or system temperature. At the end of a calibration cycle, a 16-bit calibration value is stored in the Offset register in two’s
compliment format. After completing a conversion, the
MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 subtract the
calibration value from the ADC conversion result and
write the offset compensated data to the Data register
(see Offset Register section). Either a positive or negative offset can be calibrated. During offset calibration,
DRDY will go high. DRDY goes low after calibration is
complete. The offset register can be programmed to
skew the ADC offset with a maximum range from -215 to
(+215 - 1)LSBs, e.g., if the programmed 2’s complement
value is +2LSB (-2LSB), this translates to a -2LSB
(+2LSB) shift in bipolar mode or a -4LSB (+4LSB) shift in
unipolar mode.To maintain optimum performance, recalibrate the ADC if the temperature changes by more than
20°C. Offset calibration should also be performed after
any changes in PGA gain, bipolar/unipolar input range,
buffered/unbuffered mode, or conversion speed. During
calibration, the two mulitplexers will be disabled and the
inputs to the ADC will internally be shorted to a common-mode voltage.

FREQUENCY (Hz)
Figure 7. Frequency Response of the SINC3 Filter (Notch at
60Hz)
Figure 7 shows the filter frequency response. The
SINC3 characteristic cutoff frequency is 0.262 times the
first notch frequency. This results in a cutoff frequency
of 15.72Hz for a first filter notch frequency of 60Hz (output data rate of 60Hz). The response shown in Figure 7
is repeated at either side of the digital filter’s sample
frequency (f M ) (f M = 15.36kHz for 30Hz and f M =
30.72kHz for 60Hz) and at either side of the related harmonics (2fM, 3fM,....).
The output data rate for the digital filter corresponds
with the positioning of the first notch of the filter’s frequency response. Therefore, for the plot of Figure 7
where the first notch of the filter is at 60Hz, the output
data rate is 60Hz. The notches of this (sinx/x)3 filter are
repeated at multiples of the first notch frequency. The
SINC 3 filter provides an attenuation of better than
100dB at these notches.
For step changes at the input, enough settling time
must be allowed before valid data can be read. The
settling time depends upon the output data rate chosen
for the filter. The settling time of the SINC3 filter to a fullscale step input can be up to four times the output data
period, or three times if the step change is synchrozied
with FSYNC.
Force/Sense DAC
(MAX1407/MAX1409/MAX1414)
The MAX1407/MAX1414 incorporate two 10-bit force/
sense DACs while the MAX1409 has one. The DACs
use a precise 1.25V internal bandgap reference for setting the full-scale range. Program the DAC1 and DAC2
registers through the serial interface to set the output
voltages of the DACs seen at OUT1 and OUT2.
20
Shorting FB1(2) and OUT1(2) configures the DAC in a
unity-gain setting. Connecting resistors in a voltagedivider configuration between OUT1(2), FB1(2), and
GND sets a different closed-loop gain for the output
amplifier (see the Applications Information section).
The DAC output amplifier typically settles to ±1/2LSB
from a full-scale transition within 65µs, when it is connected in unity gain and loaded with 12kΩ in parallel
with 200pF. Loads less than 2kΩ may degrade performance. See the Typical Operating Characteristics section for the source-and-sink capabilty of the DAC
output.
The MAX1407/MAX1409/MAX1414 feature a softwareprogrammable shutdown mode for the DACs that
reduce the total power consumption when they are not
used. The two DACs can be powered-down independently or simultaneously by clearing the DA1E and
DA2E bits (see Power1 Register). DAC outputs OUT1
and OUT2 go high impedance when powered down.
The DACs are automatically powered up and ready for
a conversion when Idle or Run mode is entered.
Voltage Monitors
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 include
two on-board voltage monitors. When AVDD is below
the RESET trip threshold, RESET goes low and the RST
bit of the Status register is set to “1”. When AVDD is
below the Low VDD trip threshold, the LVD bit of the
Status register is set to 1.
RESET Voltage Monitor
The RESET voltage monitor is powered up at all times
(provided that VM = 0 and LVDE = 1 or VM = 1 and
LSDE = 1). A threshold voltage of either +1.8V or +2.7V
may be selected for the RESET voltage monitor (see
Power2 Register). At initial power-up, the RESET trip
threshold is set to 2.7V. If the RESET voltage monitor is
tripped, the RST bit of the status register is set to “1”
and RESET goes low. RESET is held low for 1.54
seconds (typ) after AVDD rises above the RESET voltage
monitor threshold. If AVDD is no longer below the RESET
threshold, reading the Status register will clear RST.
Low VDD Voltage Monitor
When the device is operating in Run, Idle, or Standby
mode (see Power Modes) and AVDD goes below +2.7V,
the low VDD monitor trips, indicating that the supply voltage is below the safe minimum for proper operation.
When tripped, the Low VDD Voltage Monitor sets the LVD
bit of the Status register to 1. If AVDD is no longer below
+2.7V, reading the Status register will clear LVD. The low
VDD monitor is powered down in Sleep mode. When it is
powered down, the LVD bit stays unchanged. The LVD is
cleared if it is read in Sleep mode.

Low-Power, 16-Bit Multichannel DAS with
Internal Reference,10-Bit DACs, and RTC
Crystal Oscillator
The on-chip oscillator requires an external crystal (or
resonator) connected between CLKIN and CLKOUT
with an operating frequency of 32.768kHz. This oscillator is used for the RTC, alarm, signal-detect comparator, and PLL. The oscillator is operational down to 1.8V.
In any crystal-based oscillator circuit, the oscillator frequency is based on the characteristics of the crystal. It
is important to select a crystal that meets the design
requirements, especially the capacitive load (CL) that
must be placed across the crystal pins in order for the
crystal to oscillate at its specified frequency. CL is the
capacitance that the crystal needs to “see” from the
oscillator circuit; it is not the capacitance of the crystal
itself. The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414
have 6pF of capacitance across the CLKIN and CLKOUT pins. Choose a crystal with a 32.768kHz oscillation
frequency and a 6pF capacitive load such as the C002RX32-E from Epson Crystal. Using a crystal with a
CL that is larger than the load capacitance of the oscillator circuit will cause the oscillator to run faster than
the specified nominal frequency of the crystal.
Conversely, using a crystal with a CL that is smaller
than the load capacitance of the oscillator circuit will
cause the oscillator to run slower than the specified
nominal frequency of the crystal.
Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) and FOUT
An on-board phase-locked loop generates a
2.4576MHz clock at FOUT from the 32.768kHz crystal
oscillator. FOUT can be used to clock a µP or other digital circuitry. Connect an 18nF ceramic capacitor from
CPLL to AVDD to create the 2.4576MHz clock signal at
FOUT. To power down the PLL, clear PLLE in the
Power2 register (see Power2 Register) or write to the
Sleep register. FOUT will be active for 1.95ms (tDFOF)
after receiving either power-down command and then
go low. This provides extra clock signals to the µP to
complete a shutdown sequence. The PLL is active in all
modes except the sleep mode (see Power Modes). To
reactivate the PLL, the following conditions must be
met: AVDD is greater than the low VDD voltage monitor
threshold, RESET is deasserted, and the PLLE bit is
equal to “1”. FOUT is enabled 31.25ms (tDFON) after
the PLL is activated. At initial power-up, the PLL is
enabled. If RESET is asserted while the PLL is running,
the PLL does not shut down.
Real-Time Clock (RTC)
The integrated RTC provides the current second,
minute, hour, date, month, day, year, century, and millenium information. An internally generated reference
clock of 1.024kHz (derived from the 32.768kHz crystal)
drives the RTC. The RTC operates in either 24-hour or
12-hour format with an AM/PM indicator (see RTC_Hour
Register). An internal calendar compensates for months
with less than 31 days and includes leap year correction through the year 9999. The RTC operates from a
supply voltage of +1.8V to +3.6V and consumes less
than 1µA current.
Time of Day Alarm
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 offer a time
of day alarm which generates an interrupt when the RTC
reaches a preset combination of seconds, minutes,
hours, and day (see Alarm Registers). In addition to setting a “single-shot” alarm, the Time of Day Alarm can
also be programmed to generate an alarm every second, minute, hour, day, or week. “Don’t care” states can
be inserted into one or more fields if it is desired for them
to be ignored for the alarm condition. The Time of Day
Alarm wakes up the device into Standby mode if it is in
Sleep mode. The Time of Day Alarm operates from a
supply voltage of +1.8V to +3.6V.
Interrupt (INT)
INT indicates one of three conditions. After receiving a
valid interrupt (INT goes low), read the Status register
and the Al_Status register (if the alarm is enabled) to
identify the source of the interrupt. The three sources of
interrupts are from the CLK, SDC, and ALIRQ bits.
PLL Ready
On power-up, INT is high. 7.82ms (tDFI) after the PLL
output appears on FOUT, INT goes low (see Figure 15).
The CLK bit of the Status register is set to “1” after
FOUT is enabled. Reading the Status register clears the
CLK bit. INT remains low until the device detects a start
bit through the serial interface from the µP. The purpose
of this interrupt is to inform the µP that the FOUT clock
signal is present.

MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414
Internal/External Reference
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 have an
internal low-drift +1.25V reference used for both ADC
and DAC conversion. The buffered reference output
can be used as a reference source for other devices in
the system. The internal reference requires a 4.7µF lowESR ceramic capacitor or tantalum capacitor connected between REF and AGND. For applications that
require increased accuracy, power-down the internal
reference by writing a 0 to the REFE bit of the Power1
register and connect an external reference source to
REF. The valid external reference voltage range is
1.25V ±100mV.

Signal Detect
The INT pin will also go low and stay low when the differential voltage on the selected analog inputs exceeds
the signal-detect comparator trip threshold (0mV for the
MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409 and 50mV for the
MAX1414). This will latch the SDC bit of the Status register to one. Additional signal detect interrupts cannot
be generated unless the SDC bit is cleared. To clear
the SDC bit, the Status register must be read and the
input must be below the signal-detect threshold.
Powering down the signal detect-comparator without
reading the Status register will also clear the SDC bit.
Similar to the power-up case, INT goes high when the
device detects a start bit through the serial interface
from the µP.
Time of Day Alarm
If the device is in Sleep mode, the alarm will wake up
the device and set the ALIRQ bit. INT is asserted when
the PLL is turned on. If an alarm occurs while the
device is awake (BIASE = 1), the ALIRQ bit will be set
and INT will go low. INT remains low until the device
detects a start bit through the serial interface from the
µP. ALIRQ is reset to 0 when any alarm register is read
or written to.
Shutdown (SHDN)
SHDN is an active-low output that can be used to control an external power supply. Powering up the PLL
(PLLE = 1) or writing a “1” to the SHDE bit of the
Power2 register causes SHDN to go high. SHDN goes
low when the SHDE bit is set to 0 only if the PLL is powered down (PLLE = 0). The SHDN output stays high for
2.93ms (tDPD) after receiving a power-down command,
allowing the external power supply to stay alive so that
the µP can properly complete a shutdown sequence.
22
SHDN is not available on the MAX1409. Note: Entering
Sleep mode automatically sets PLLE and SHDE to 0.
Any wake-up event will cause SHDN to go high. (See
Wake-Up section.)
Data Ready (DRDY)
This pin will go low and stay low upon completion of an
ADC conversion or end of an ADC calibration. This signals the µP that a valid conversion or calibration result
has been written to the DATA or the OFFSET register.
The DRDY pin goes high either when the µP has finished reading the conversion/calibration result on the
last rising edge of SCLK (see Figure 8), or when the
next conversion result is about to be written to the
DATA register. When no read operation is performed,
DRDY pulses at 60Hz with a pulse high time of
162.76µs (or 30Hz with a pulse high time of 325.52µs)
DRDY is not available on the MAX1409. To see when
the ADC has completed a normal conversion or a calibration conversion for the MAX1409, check the status
of the ADD bit in the Status register.
Serial Digital Interface
The SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-serial interface consists of
chip select (CS), serial clock (SCLK), data in (DIN), and
data out (DOUT) (See Figure 9). The serial interface
provides access to 29 on-chip registers, allowing control to all the power modes and functional blocks,
including the ADCs, DACs, and RTC. Table 2 lists the
address and read/write accessibility of all the registers.
A logic high on CS three-states DOUT and causes the
MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 to ignore any
signals on SCLK and DIN. To clock data into or out of
the internal shift register, drive CS low. SCLK synchronizes the data transfer. The rising edge of SCLK clocks
DIN into the shift register, and the falling edge of SCLK
______________________________________________________________________________________
Low-Power, 16-Bit Multichannel DAS with
Internal Reference,10-Bit DACs, and RTC
between writes to the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/
MAX1414. Figures 11–14 show the read and write timing
for 8- and 16-bit data. Data is updated on the last rising
edge of the SCLK in the command word. CS should not
go high between data transfers. If CS is toggled before
the end of a write or read operation, the device can
enter an incorrect mode. Clock in 72 zeros to clear this
state and re-arm the serial interface.
After loading the command byte into the shift register,
additional clocks shift out data on DOUT for a read and
shift in data on DIN for a write operation.
All communication with the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 begins with a command byte on
DIN, where the first logic 1 on DIN will be recognized as
the START bit (MSB) for the command byte (Table 3).
The following seven clock cycles load the command into
a shift register. These seven bits specify which of the
registers will be accessed, whether a read or write operation will take place, and the length of the subsequent
data (0-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit, or burst mode). Idle DIN low

MODE: Conversion Mode bit. A logic zero selects a
normal ADC conversion, while a logic 1 selects an offset
calibration conversion. After completing a calibration
conversion, MODE automatically resets to zero.
RATE: Conversion Rate bit. A logic zero selects a 30Hz
conversion rate while a logic 1 selects a 60Hz conversion rate.
BIP: Unipolar/Bipolar bit. A logic zero selects unipolar
mode while a logic 1 selects bipolar mode.
STA1: Start bit. Setting STA1 to a logic 1 resets the registers inside the ADC filter, updates the ADC configuration according to the ADC register, and initiates an
analog-to-digital conversion or offset calibration. The
initial conversion requires three cycles for valid output
data, and each subsequent conversion cycle will output
valid data. After completing the intial conversion, STA1
automatically resets to 0; however, the ADC will continue to do conversions until it is powered down.
Writing to the ADC register with STA1 set to 0 updates
the ADC register without changing the ADC configuration and allows the ADC to continue conversions uninterrupted. This allows the ADC and MUX configuration
to be updated simultaneously. See STA2 bit of the MUX
register.
GAIN1, GAIN0: Gain bits. The Gain bits select the PGA
gain. For an ADC gain of +1/3, +1, and 2V/V, [GAIN1
GAIN0] are 00, 01, and 10, respectively.
BUFP: Positive Buffer bit. When this bit is 0, the positive
input buffer is bypassed and powered down. When this
bit is 1 and the BUFE bit in the Power1 register is 1, the
positive input buffer drives the ADC input sampling

BUFN: Negative Buffer bit. When this bit is 0, the negative input buffer is bypassed and powered-down. When

MUXP2, MUXP1, MUXP0: Positive Multiplexer bits.
MUXP[2:0] direct one-of-eight positive inputs to the
positive input of the ADC. Table 4 relates the MUXP bits
to the positive multiplexer inputs.
MUXN2, MUXN1, MUXN0: Negative Multiplexer bits.
MUXN[2:0] direct one-of-eight (one-of-four for the
MAX1409) negative inputs to the negative input of the
ADC. Table 5 relates the MUXN bits to the negative
multiplexer inputs.
DBIT: Digital Output bit. This bit controls the output
state of D0. When the output buffer is enabled, D0 is
low if Dbit is equal to 0, and high if Dbit is equal to 1.
D0 is enabled by the D0E bit of the Power2 register.

STA2: Start bit. Setting STA2 to a logic 1 updates the
mux selection, resets the registers inside the ADC filter,
updates the ADC configuration according to the ADC
register, and initiates an analog-to-digital conversion.
The initial conversion requires three cycles for valid output data, and each subsequent conversion cycle will
output valid data. STA2 automatically resets to 0 after
the initial conversion completes. The ADC will continue
to do conversions until it is powered down. Writing to
the MUX register with the STA2 bit set to 0, updates the
MUX register and selection, but leaves the ADC configuration unchanged. The MUX input can be switched
with the ADC continuously converting without the digital
filter resetting.

The Offset register contains the 16-bit result from the
most recently completed ADC offset calibration. The
data format is two’s complement and is subtracted from
the filter output before writing to the Data register. After
power-up, the Offset register contains all zeros.
Each change in ambient operating condition (power
supply and temperature), PGA gain, bipolar/unipolar
input range, buffered/unbuffered mode, or conversion
speed requires an offset calibration. The offset for a
given ADC configuration can be read and stored by the
µP to avoid ADC recalibration. When returning to an
ADC configuration where the offset was stored, write
back the stored offset to the Offset register. The stored
offset stays valid as long as the ambient operating condition remains unchanged (within ±20°C).
Force Sense DAC Registers
(MAX1407/MAX1409/MAX1414 only)
Writing to the DAC1 register updates the output of
DAC1. Writing to the DAC2 register updates the output
of DAC2. The DAC data is 10-bit long and left justified.
Follow the timing diagrams of Figure 11 and Figure 13
to program these registers. Writing a logic 0 to the
DA1E or DA2E bit in the POWER2 register disables
DAC1 or DAC2, respectively. At power-up, DAC1 and
DAC2 are disabled.

WU2: Wake-Up2 status bit. When WU2 is pulled low,
WU2 is set to a logic 1. Reading the Status register
clears WU2, unless WU2 is still low. When WU2 is
pulled low when the device is awake (not in Sleep
mode), WU2 is cleared.
WU1: Wake-Up1 status bit. When WU1 is pulled low,
WU1 is set to a logic 1. Reading the Status register
clears WU1, unless WU1 is still low. When WU1 is
pulled low when the device is awake (not in Sleep
mode), WU1 is cleared.
RST: Reset status bit. When AVDD drops below the
RESET Voltage Monitor trip threshold (+1.8V or +2.7V),
RST is set to 1. This corresponds to the assertion of the
RESET pin. Reading the Status register clears RST,
unless AVDD is still below the RESET Voltage Monitor
trip threshold. At power-up, RST is at a logic 1 until the
Status register is read.
LVD: Low VDD status bit. When AVDD drops below the
Low VDD Voltage Monitor trip threshold (+2.7V), LVD is
set to a logic 1. Reading the Status register clears LVD
unless AVDD is still below 2.7V. At power-up, LVD is at
a logic 1 until the Status register is read. When the Low
VDD Voltage Monitor is powered down (LVDE = 0), the
LVD bit stays unchanged.
SDC: Signal-Detect Comparator status bit. SDC is set
to “1” when the differential polarity voltage across the
signal-detect comparator exceeds the signal-detect
threshold (0mV for the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409
and 50mV for the MAX1414). This corresponds to the
assertion of the INT pin. Reading the Status register
clears SDC unless the condition remains true. SDC is
also reset to 0 when the signal-detect comparator is
powered down (SDCE = 0).
CLK: FOUT Clock Enable status bit. CLK is set to “1”
after the FOUT clock pin has been enabled in tDFON
milliseconds (see Figure 15). Reading the Status register
clears the CLK bit.
ADD: ADC Done Status bit. ADD is set to “1” to indicate
that the ADC has completed either a normal conversion
or a calibration conversion, and the conversion result is
available to be read. This corresponds to the assertion
of the DRDY pin. Reading either the Data or Offset
register clears the ADD bit. Reading the Status register
WILL NOT clear this bit.
Alarm Registers
The Al_Sec, Al_Min, Al_Hour, Al_Day registers are programmed through the serial port to store the preset
time data in binary-coded decimal format (BCD). See
Table 6 for decimal to BCD conversion. These registers
can be accessed individually or consecutively using
burst mode (see Al_Burst Register section).
To enable the alarm, set the AE bit of the
Alarm/Clock_Ctrl Register to 1 (see Alarm and RTC
Programming section). When an alarm occurs in any
mode, the ALIRQ bit of the AL_Status register will
change from 0 to 1, and the INT output will go low
unless you are in Sleep mode. If not already awake, the
device will wake-up from Sleep mode to Standby mode
and INT goes low when the PLL output is available. The
crystal oscillator, RTC, wake-up circuitry, reset voltage
monitor, low VDD voltage monitor (if applicable), and
the PLL are all powered up in standby mode.
Four alarm registers (Al_Sec, Al_Min, Al_Hour, and
Al_Day) are used to store the preset time value for the
alarm function. Bit 7 of the Al_Sec, Al_Min, Al_Hour,
Al_Day registers is the mask bit and is used to program
how often the alarm occurs. Table 7 shows how Bit 7 of
the four alarm registers should be set for the time of
day alarm to occur. Other combinations of mask bits
are possible to set different alarms.

sequentially with the MSB of the Seconds register first.
They must all be read out as a group of eight registers
of eight bits each, for proper execution of the burst
read function. The worst-case error that can occur
between the “actual” time and the “reported” time is
one second. As with a read operation, using single
writes to update the RTC can lead to collisions. To
guarantee an accurate update of the RTC, use the
Burst Write mode (see Alarm and RTC Programming
section).
Real-Time Clock (RTC)
The RTC_Sec, RTC_Min, RTC_Hour, RTC_Date,
RTC_Month, RTC_Day, RTC_Year, and RTC_Century
registers can be accessed one register at a time or in
Burst mode (see RTC_BURST REGISTER section). The
RTC runs continuously and does not stop for read or
write operations. To prevent the data from changing
during a read operation, complete all read operations
on the RTC registers (single register reads and burst
reads) in less than 1ms.
The RTC defaults to 24-hr mode, 00:00:00, Sunday,
January 01, 1970 during power-up. January 01, 1970
falls on a Thursday, but since this RTC is not timebased, the default values do not have an impact on the
functionality of the clock, and they merely provide some
means for testing. If the alarm or RTC registers are programmed to some unused states, the device chooses
the default values.
RTC_BURST REGISTER (01111)
Writing to this address begins the burst mode transfer.
In this mode, all the real-time clock registers are continuously read or written starting with Bit 7 of the
RTC_Sec, RTC_Min, RTC_Hour, RTC_Date,
RTC_Month, RTC_Day, RTC_Year, and RTC_Century
registers. When reading, the contents of DIN will be
ignored and each register’s 8-bit data will be clocked
out at DOUT on the falling edge of SCLK (total of 64
clock cycles). When writing, start with the Seconds’
register MSB first and continue through the Century
register (see Alarm and RTC Programming section).
Using single reads to read all the RTC registers could
lead to errors as much as a century. Since the registers
are updated between read operations, the register contents may change before all RTC registers have been
read, when reading one register at a time. The most
accurate way to get the time information of the RTC
registers is with a burst read. In the burst read, a snapshot of the eight RTC registers (RTC_Sec, RTC_Min,
RTC_Hour, RTC_Date, RTC_Month, RTC_Day,
RTC_Year, RTC_Century) is taken once and read

SHDE: Shutdown Enable bar. If SHDE is set to 1,
SHDN is pulled high. A wake-up event such as an
assertion of WU1 or WU2, a time-of-day alarm, or by
writing to the Power1, Power2, Standby, Idle, or Run
registers sets this bit to 1 and drives SHDN high. If the
SHDE bit is set to 0 in Standby, Idle, or Run mode and
the PLL is still operational (PLLE = 1), the SHDN pin will
remain high until 2.93ms (tDPD) after PLLE is set to 0.
PLLE: Phase-Locked Loop Power Enable. A logic 1
powers the PLL and enables FOUT while a logic 0 powers down the PLL and disables FOUT. A wake-up event
sets this bit to 1. See Wake-Up section.
LVDE: +2.7V Voltage Monitor Power Enable. A logic 1
powers the +2.7V voltage comparator circuitry, while a
logic 0 powers down the +2.7V voltage comparator circuitry. A wake-up event sets LVDE to 1. See Wake-Up
section.
LSDE: +1.8V Voltage Monitor Power Enable. A logic 1
powers the +1.8V voltage comparator circuitry, while a
logic 0 powers down the +1.8V voltage comparator circuitry. See Wake-Up section.
SDCE: Signal-Detect Comparator Power Enable. A
logic 1 powers the signal-detect comparator while a
logic 0 powers down this comparator.
D0E: D0 Enable bit. A logic 0 three-states the D0
ouput. When D0E is set to “1”, the output of D0 is contolled by the state of DBIT in the MUX register.
Programming the device in different modes does not
alter the state of this bit.
VM: RESET Voltage Monitor Threshold Selection bit. A
logic 0 selects a +2.7V threshold while a logic 1 selects
a +1.8V threshold for the RESET Voltage Monitor. The
VM bit effects the LVDE and LSDE bits in different
modes of operation (see Table 8).
BIASE: Bias Enable. A logic 1 powers up the master
bias circuit block. A wake-up event sets this bit to a
logic 1. See Wake-Up section.

SLEEP REGISTER (11010)
Addressing the Sleep register places the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 in Sleep mode. This
occurs after the last bit of the command byte is clocked
into the device. It requires an 8-bit write, no data bits
are needed. Sleep mode powers down all functional
blocks except for the crystal oscillator, RTC, alarm, serial interface, wake-up circuitry, and RESET voltage
monitor. While in Sleep mode, pulling either WU1 or
WU2 low or an alarm event places the device into
Standby mode.
STANDBY REGISTER (11011)
Addressing the Standby register places the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 in Standby mode. This
occurs after the last bit of the address byte is clocked
into the device. It requires an 8-bit write, no data bits
are needed. Standby mode powers up the same blocks
as Sleep mode, as well as the master bias circuitry, the
PLL, and the Low VDD Voltage Monitor. FOUT is also
enabled and SHDN is set high in Standby mode.
IDLE REGISTER (11100)
Addressing the Idle register places the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 in Idle mode. This
occurs after the last bit of the address byte is clocked
into the device. Requires an 8-bit write, no data bits are
needed. In Idle mode, all circuits are powered up with
the exception of the ADC and the ADC Input Buffers.
RUN REGISTER (11101)
Addressing the Run register puts the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 into Run mode. This
occurs after the last bit of the address byte is clocked
into the device. Requires an 8-bit write, no data bits are
needed. All the functional blocks are powered up in
Run mode.

Alarm and RTC Programming
Three write operations are needed for every update of
the ALARM and RTC registers. First set the WE bit of
the Alarm/Clock_CTRL Register to 1. Update the Alarm,
RTC, and Alarm/Clock_CTRL Register with the new values, and then set the WE bit back to 0. This will avoid
collisions in setting the time.
Power-On Reset or Power-Up
At initial power-up, the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/
MAX1414 are in Standby mode. Figure 15 illustrates the
timing of various signals during initial Power-Up, Sleep
mode, and Wake-Up. tDSLP after AVDD exceeds +2.7V,
RESET goes high. tDFON after RESET goes high, FOUT
is enabled. INT is enabled to t DFI after FOUT is
enabled.
Power Modes
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 have fou
distinct power modes, Sleep mode, Standby mode, Idle
mode, and Run mode. Table 9 lists the power-on status
of the various blocks of the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414. Each individual circuit block can
be powered up through the serial interface by writing to
the appropriate power registers.
Sleep Mode
In Sleep mode, only the crystal oscillator, RTC, data
registers, wake-up circuitry, and RESET Voltage
Monitor are powered up. Sleep mode is entered by
addressing the Sleep register through the serial interface. Sleep mode preserves any data in the data registers. To exit Sleep mode, pull either WU1 or WU2 low or
address other Power mode registers (Standby, Idle,
Run, Power1, or Power2 registers). Asserting WU1 or
WU2 or the occurence of a Time of Day Alarm while in
Sleep mode places the device in Standby mode.
Standby Mode
After initial power-up or after exiting Sleep mode
through a wake-up event, the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 are in Standby mode. Standby
mode can also be entered by addressing the Standby
register. In Standby mode, SHDN is high, FOUT is
enabled, the Low VDD voltage monitor and the PLL are
powered up, and INT is low. INT will return to a logic
high after the µP begins writing to any register through
the serial interface (once a start bit is detected through
the serial interface).
Idle Mode
In Idle mode, only the ADC and ADC input buffers are
shutdown. All the other blocks are powered up. Enter
Idle mode by addressing the Idle register.
Run Mode
In Run mode, all the functional blocks are powered up
and the ADC is ready to start conversion. Enter Run
mode by either writing to the Run register or by individually powering up each circuit through the serial interface.
Wake-Up
Wake-Up mode is entered whenever a wake-up event,
such as an assertion of WU1 or WU2 or a time-of-day
alarm occurs. The Low VDD monitor, PLL, FOUT are
enabled, and SHDN goes high. Different from the
Standby mode, the status of the other power blocks
remains unchanged.
Analog Filtering
The digital filter does not provide any rejection close to
the harmonics of the modulator sample frequency.
However, due to the high oversampling ratio of the
MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414, these bands
occupy only a small fraction of the spectrum and most
broadband noise is filtered. Therefore, the analog filtering requirements in front of the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 are considerably reduced compared to a conventional converter with no on-chip filtering. In addition, because the part’s common-mode
rejection of 90dB extends out to several kHz, commonmode noise susceptibility in this frequency range is
substantially reduced.
Depending on the application, it may be necessary to
provide filtering prior to the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 to eliminate unwanted frequencies
the digital filter does not reject. It may also be necessary
in some applications to provide additional filtering to
ensure that differential noise signals outside the frequency band of interest do not saturate the analog modulator.
If passive components are placed in front of the
MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 when the part
is used in unbuffered mode, ensure that the source
impedance is low enough not to introduce gain errors in
the system. This can significantly limit the amount of
passive anti-aliasing filtering that can be applied in
front of the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 in
unbuffered mode. However, when the part is used in
buffered mode, large source impedances will simply
result in a small DC offset error (a 1kΩ source resistance will cause an offset error of less than 0.5µV).
Therefore, where significant source impedances are
required, operate the device in buffered mode.

When designing with the MAX1407/MAX1408/

tages of series input resistance. A series resistor
reduces the transient current impulse to the external

tor spreads the transient-load current from the sampler
over time due to the RC time constant of the circuit.
However, an improperly chosen series resistance can
hinder performance in high-resolution converters. The
settling time of the RC network can limit the speed at
which the converter can operate properly, or reduce
the settling accuracy of the sampler. In practice, this
means ensuring that the RC time constant, resulting
from the product of the driving source impedance and
the capacitance presented by both the device’s input
and any external capacitance is sufficiently small to
allow settling to the desired accuracy. Table 10 summarizes the maximum allowable series resistance vs.

external shunt capacitance for each different gain setting in order to ensure 16-bit performance in unbuffered
mode (for 60sps conversion rate).
Performing a Conversion or OffsetCalibration with the ADC
Upon power-up, the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/
MAX1414 are in Standby mode. At this point, the ADC
register default settings are set for a normal ADC conversion (MODE = 0), conversion rate of 30Hz (RATE = 0),
gain of 1/3 V/V (GAIN [00]), input buffers bypassed and
powered down (BUFP = BUFN = 0), and unipolar mode

To perform an on-chip offset calibration on a specific
configuration, write to the ADC register with the MODE
bit and STA1 bit set to 1. The ADC will do one calibration using the inputs to the ADC specified in the MUX
register and then stop. The calibration result will be
stored in the Offset register in two’s complement form.
Subsequent ADC conversion results will have the offset
value subtracted before written to the DATA register.
The MODE bit will be reset to 0 automatically upon
completion of the calibration. The ADC is now ready for
a normal conversion.

The offset for a given ADC configuration can be stored
by the µP to avoid another ADC recalibration. Write the
stored offset back to the offset register when returning
back to that particular ADC configuration where the calibration was taken. Subsequent ADC conversion results
will have the offset value subtracted before they are
written to the DATA register.
DAC Unipolar Output
For a unipolar output, the output voltages and the reference have the same polarity. Figure 16 shows the
MAX1407/MAX1409/MAX1414s’ unipolar output circuit,
which is also the typical operating circuit for the DACs.
Table 11 lists some unipolar input codes and their corresponding output voltages.
For larger output swing see Figure 17. This circuit
shows the output amplifiers configured with a closedloop gain of +2V/V to provide 0 to 2.5V full-scale range
with the 1.25V reference.

Power Supplies
Power to the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414
family can be supplied in a number of ways. Figures 19,
42
20, 21, and 22 are power-supply circuits using a step-up
converter, buck-boost converter, step-down converter,
and a direct battery, respectively. Choose the correct
power-supply circuit for your specific application.
Connect the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414
AVDD and DVDD power supplies together. While the
latch-up performance of the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 is adequate, it is important that
power is applied to the device before the analog input
signals (IN_) to avoid latch-up. If this is not possible,
limit the current flow into any of these pins to 50mA.
Electrochemical Sensor Operation
The MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 family interface with electrochemical sensors. The 10-bit DACs with
the force/sense buffers have the flexibility to connect to
many different types of sensors. Figure 23 shows how to
interface with a two electrode potentiostat. A single DAC
is required to set the bias across the sensor relative to
ground and an external precision resistor completes the
transimpedance amplifier configuration to convert the
current generated by the sensor to a voltage to be measured by the ADC. The induced error from this source is
negligible due to FB1’s extremely low input bias current.
Internally, the ADC can differentially measure directly
across the external transimpedance resistor, RF, eliminating any errors due to voltages drifting over time, temperature, or supply voltage. Figure 24 shows a two electrode
potentiostat application that is driven at the working electrode and measured at the counter electrode. With this
application, the DAC connected to the working electrode
is configured in unity gain and the DAC connected to the

counter electrode is configured as a transimpedance
amplifier to measure the current. Figure 25 shows a three
electrode potentiostat application that is driven at all the
electrodes and measured at the working electrode. With
this application, the DAC connected to the working elec-
trode sets the bias voltage relative to the reference electrode and also measures the current that the sensor produces. The DAC connected to the reference and counter
electrodes takes advantage of the force/sense outputs to

Optical Reflectometry
Thermistor Measurement
Figure 26 illustrates the MAX1407/MAX1414 in an optical
reflectometry application. The first DAC is used with an
external transistor to set the bias current through the LED
and the second DAC is used to properly bias and convert
the photodiode current to a voltage measured by the
ADC. The low input bias current into the DAC feedback
pin (FB2) allows the measurement of very small currents.
The DACs provide the flexibility in setting an accurate
and stable LED current and adjusting the bias across the
A thermistor connected in a half-bridge configuration
as shown in Figure 27 is used to measure temperatures
very accurately with the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414. The internal reference drives the
thermistor as well as the ADC, so the reference variation is cancelled out when calculating the temperature.
The only significant errors are from the RL resistor and
the thermistor itself. The ADC performs a unipolar conversion with the PGA set to a gain of 1V/V.

Figure 29. Strain-Gauge Application Circuit
Thermocouple Measurement
Figure 28 shows a thermocouple connected to the differential inputs of the MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/
MAX1414. In this application, the internal buffers are
enabled to allow for the decoupling shown at the input.
The decoupling eliminates noise pickup from the thermocouple. With the internal buffers enabled, the input
common-mode range is reduced so the IN2 input is
biased to the internal reference voltage at +1.25V. When
the buffer is enabled, the IN1 input is limited to +1.4V.
Strain-Gauge Operation
Connect the differential inputs of the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 to the bridge network of
the strain gauge as shown in Figure 29. When connected to the internal reference, the ADC can resolve below
10µV at the differential inputs. The internal buffers provide a high input impedance as long as the signal is
within the reduced common-mode range of the input
buffers. The bridge may also be driven directly from the
supply voltage. In this configuration, the ADC first measures the supply voltage and then the differential input
in sequence, and then calculates the ratio.
Grounding and Layout
For best performance, use printed circuit boards with
separate analog and digital ground planes. The device
perfomance will be highly degraded when using wirewrap boards.
Design the printed circuit board so that the analog and
digital sections are separated and confined to different
areas of the board. Join the digital and analog ground
planes at one point. If the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 is the only device requiring an
AGND to DGND connection, then the ground planes
should be connected at the AGND pin of the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414. In systems where multiple devices require AGND to DGND connections, the
connection should still be made at only one point. Make
the star ground as close to the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 as possible.
Avoid running digital lines under the device because
these may couple noise onto the die. Run the analog
ground plane under the MAX1407/MAX1408/
MAX1409/MAX1414 to minimize coupling of digital
noise. Make the power-supply lines to the MAX1407/
MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 as wide as possible to
provide low-impedance paths and reduce the effects of
glitches on the power-supply line.
Shield fast switching signals such as clocks with digital
ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the
board. Avoid running clock signals near the analog
inputs. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals.
Traces on opposite sides of the board should run at
right angles to each other. This will reduce the effects
of feedthrough on the board. A microstrip technique is
best, but is not always possible with double-sided
boards. In this technique, the component side of the
board is dedicated to ground planes while signals are
placed on the solder side.
Good coupling is important when using high-resolution
ADCs. Decouple all analog supplies with 1µF capacitors in parallel with 0.1µF HF ceramic capacitors to
AGND. Place these components as close to the device
as possible to achieve the best decoupling.
Crystal Layout
Since it is possible for noise to be coupled onto the
crystal pins, care must be taken when placing the
external crystal on a PC board layout. It is very important to follow a few basic layout guidelines concerning

the placement of the crystal on the PC board layout to
insure that extra clock “ticks” do not couple onto the
crystal pins.
1) It is important to place the crystal as close as possible to the CLKIN and CLKOUT pins. Keeping the
trace lengths between the crystal and pins as small
as possible reduces the probability of noise coupling by reducing the length of the “antennae”.
Keeping the trace lengths small also decreases the
amount of stray capacitance.
2) Keep the crystal bond pads and trace width to the
CLKIN and CLKOUT pins as small as possible. The
larger these bond pads and traces are, the more
likely it is that noise can couple from adjacent signals.
3) If possible, place a guard ring (connect to ground)
around the crystal. This helps to isolate the crystal
from noise coupled from adjacent signals.
4) Insure that no signals on other PC board layers run
directly below the crystal or below the traces to the
CLKIN and CLKOUT pins. The more the crystal is
isolated from other signals on the board, the less
likely it is that noise will be coupled into the crystal.
There should be a minimum of 0.200 inches
between any digital signal and any trace connected
to CLKIN or CLKOUT.
5) It may also be helpful to place a local ground plane
on the PC board layer immediately below the crystal
guard ring. This helps to isolate the crystal from
noise coupling from signals on other PC board layers. Note: The ground plane needs to be in the
vicinity of the crystal only and not on the entire
board.
Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity
Integral nonlinearity (INL) is the deviation of the values
on an actual transfer function (with offset and gain error
removed) 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 MAX1407/MAX1408/MAX1409/MAX1414 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.
