MAX11644/MAX11645
General Description
The MAX11644/MAX11645 low-power, 12-bit, 1-/2channel analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) feature
internal track/hold (T/H), voltage reference, clock, and
an I2C-compatible 2-wire serial interface. These
devices operate from a single supply of 2.7V to 3.6V
(MAX11645) or 4.5V to 5.5V (MAX11644) and require
only 670µA at the maximum sampling rate of 94.4ksps.
Supply current falls below 230µA for sampling rates
under 40ksps. AutoShutdown™ powers down the
devices between conversions, reducing supply current
to less than 1µA at low throughput rates. The
MAX11644/MAX11645 each measure two single-ended
or one differential input. The fully differential analog
inputs are software configurable for unipolar or bipolar,
and single-ended or differential operation.
The full-scale analog input range is determined by the
internal reference or by an externally applied reference
voltage ranging from 1V to VDD. The MAX11645 features a 2.048V internal reference and the MAX11644
features a 4.096V internal reference.
The MAX11644/MAX11645 are available in an 8-pin
µMAX® package. The MAX11644/MAX11645 are guaranteed over the extended temperature range (-40°C to
+85°C). For pin-compatible 10-bit parts, refer to the
MAX11646/MAX11647 data sheet.

Note 1: For DC accuracy, the MAX11644 is tested at VDD = 5V and the MAX11645 is tested at VDD = 3V with an external
reference for both ADCs. All devices are configured for unipolar, single-ended inputs.
Note 2: Relative accuracy is the deviation of the analog value at any code from its theoretical value after the full-scale range and
offsets have been calibrated.
Note 3: Offset nulled.
Note 4: Conversion time is defined as the number of clock cycles needed for conversion multiplied by the clock period. Conversion
time does not include acquisition time. SCL is the conversion clock in the external clock mode.
Note 5: A filter on the SDA and SCL inputs suppresses noise spikes and delays the sampling instant.
Note 6: The absolute input voltage range for the analog inputs (AIN0/AIN1) is from GND to VDD.
Note 7: When the internal reference is configured to be available at REF (SEL[2:1] = 11), decouple REF to GND with a
0.1µF capacitor and a 2kΩ series resistor (see the Typical Operating Circuit).
Note 8: ADC performance is limited by the converter’s noise floor, typically 300µVP-P.
Note 9: Measured for the MAX11645 as:
⎡
2N ⎤
⎥
⎢⎡⎣VFS (3.6V) − VFS (2.7V)⎤⎦ ×
VREF ⎥⎦
⎢⎣
(3.6V − 2.7V)
and for the MAX11644, where N is the number of bits:
⎡
2N ⎤
⎥
⎢⎡⎣VFS (5.5V) − VFS (4.5V)⎤⎦ ×
VREF ⎥⎦
⎢⎣
(5.5V − 4.5V)
Note 10: A master device must provide a data hold time for SDA (referred to VIL of SCL) to bridge the undefined region of SCL’s
falling edge (see Figure 1).
Note 11: The minimum value is specified at TA = +25°C.
Note 12: CB = total capacitance of one bus line in pF.
Note 13: fSCL must meet the minimum clock low time plus the rise/fall times.

Detailed Description
The MAX11644/MAX11645 analog-to-digital converters
(ADCs) use successive-approximation conversion techniques and fully differential input track/hold (T/H) circuitry to capture and convert an analog signal to a
serial 12-bit digital output. The MAX11644/MAX11645
measure either two single-ended or one differential
input(s). These devices feature a high-speed, 2-wire
The MAX11644/MAX11645 analog-input architecture
contains an analog-input multiplexer (mux), a fully differential track-and-hold (T/H) capacitor, T/H switches, a
comparator, and a fully differential switched capacitive
digital-to-analog converter (DAC) (Figure 4).
In single-ended mode, the analog input multiplexer
connects CT/H between the analog input selected by
CS[0] (see the Configuration/Setup Bytes (Write Cycle)
section) and GND (Table 3). In differential mode, the
analog-input multiplexer connects CT/H to the + and analog inputs selected by CS[0] (Table 4).
_______________________________________________________________________________________

During the acquisition interval, the T/H switches are in
the track position and CT/H charges to the analog input
signal. At the end of the acquisition interval, the T/H
switches move to the hold position retaining the charge
on CT/H as a stable sample of the input signal.
During the conversion interval, the switched capacitive
DAC adjusts to restore the comparator input voltage to
0V within the limits of a 12-bit resolution. This action
requires 12 conversion clock cycles and is equivalent
to transferring a charge of 11pF x (VIN+ - VIN-) from
CT/H to the binary weighted capacitive DAC, forming a
digital representation of the analog input signal.
MAX11645 hold SCL low. With external clock mode, the
T/H circuitry enters track mode after a valid address on
the rising edge of the clock during the read (R/W = 1)
bit. Hold mode is then entered on the rising edge of the
second clock pulse during the shifting out of the first
byte of the result. The conversion is performed during
the next 12 clock cycles.
The time required for the T/H circuitry to acquire an
input signal is a function of the input sample capacitance. If the analog-input source impedance is high,
the acquisition time constant lengthens and more time
must be allowed between conversions. The acquisition
time (tACQ) is the minimum time needed for the signal
to be acquired. It is calculated by:
tACQ ≥ 95 (RSOURCE + RIN) x CIN
Sufficiently low source impedance is required to ensure
an accurate sample. A source impedance of up to 1.5kΩ
does not significantly degrade sampling accuracy. To
minimize sampling errors with higher source impedances, connect a 100pF capacitor from the analog input
to GND. This input capacitor forms an RC filter with the
source impedance limiting the analog-input bandwidth.
For larger source impedances, use a buffer amplifier to
maintain analog-input signal integrity and bandwidth.
When operating in internal clock mode, the T/H circuitry
enters its tracking mode on the eighth rising clock edge
of the address byte. See the Slave Address section.
The T/H circuitry enters hold mode on the falling clock
edge of the acknowledge bit of the address byte (the
ninth clock pulse). A conversion or a series of conversions is then internally clocked and the MAX11644/
where RSOURCE is the analog-input source impedance,
RIN = 2.5kΩ, and CIN = 22pF. tACQ is 1.5/fSCL for internal
clock mode and tACQ = 2/fSCL for external clock mode.
Analog Input Bandwidth
The MAX11644/MAX11645 feature input-tracking circuitry with a 5MHz small-signal bandwidth. The 5MHz
input bandwidth makes it possible to digitize highspeed transient events and measure periodic signals
with bandwidths exceeding the ADC’s sampling rate by
using under sampling techniques. To avoid high-frequency signals being aliased into the frequency band
of interest, anti-alias filtering is recommended.

Single-Ended/Differential Input
The SGL/DIF of the configuration byte configures the
MAX11644/MAX11645 analog-input circuitry for singleended or differential inputs (Table 2). In single-ended
mode (SGL/DIF = 1), the digital conversion results are
the difference between the analog input selected by
CS[0] and GND (Table 3). In differential mode (SGL/
DIF = 0), the digital conversion results are the difference between the + and the - analog inputs selected
by CS[0] (Table 4).
Unipolar/Bipolar
When operating in differential mode, the BIP/UNI bit of
the set-up byte (Table 1) selects unipolar or bipolar
operation. Unipolar mode sets the differential input
range from 0 to VREF. A negative differential analog
input in unipolar mode causes the digital output code
to be zero. Selecting bipolar mode sets the differential
input range to ±VREF/2. The digital output code is binary in unipolar mode and two’s complement in bipolar
mode. See the Transfer Functions section.
In single-ended mode, the MAX11644/MAX11645
always operate in unipolar mode irrespective of
BIP/UNI. The analog inputs are internally referenced to
GND with a full-scale input range from 0 to VREF.
2-Wire Digital Interface
The MAX11644/MAX11645 feature a 2-wire interface
consisting of a serial-data line (SDA) and serial-clock
line (SCL). SDA and SCL facilitate bidirectional communication between the MAX11644/MAX11645 and the
master at rates up to 1.7MHz. The MAX11644/
MAX11645 are slaves that transfer and receive data.
The master (typically a microcontroller) initiates data
transfer on the bus and generates the SCL signal to
permit that transfer.
SDA and SCL must be pulled high. This is typically done
with pullup resistors (750Ω or greater) (see the Typical
Operating Circuit). Series resistors (RS) are optional. They
protect the input architecture of the MAX11644/
MAX11645 from high voltage spikes on the bus lines and
minimize crosstalk and undershoot of the bus signals.
The data on SDA must remain stable during the high
period of the SCL clock pulse. Changes in SDA while
SCL is stable are considered control signals (see the
START and STOP Conditions section). Both SDA and
SCL remain high when the bus is not busy.
START and STOP Conditions
The master initiates a transmission with a START (S)
condition, a high-to-low transition on SDA while SCL is
high. The master terminates a transmission with a STOP
(P) condition, a low-to-high transition on SDA while SCL
is high (Figure 5). A repeated START (Sr) condition
can be used in place of a STOP condition to leave the
bus active and the interface mode unchanged (see the
HS Mode section).
Acknowledge Bits
Data transfers are acknowledged with an acknowledge
bit (A) or a not-acknowledge bit (A). Both the master
and the MAX11644/MAX11645 (slave) generate
acknowledge bits. To generate an acknowledge, the
receiving device must pull SDA low before the rising
edge of the acknowledge-related clock pulse (ninth
pulse) and keep it low during the high period of the
clock pulse (Figure 6). To generate a not-acknowledge,
the receiver allows SDA to be pulled high before the
rising edge of the acknowledge-related clock pulse
and leaves SDA high during the high period of the
clock pulse. Monitoring the acknowledge bits allows for
detection of unsuccessful data transfers. An unsuccessful data transfer happens if a receiving device is
busy or if a system fault has occurred. In the event of
an unsuccessful data transfer, the bus master should
reattempt communication at a later time.

Analog Input Range and Protection
Internal protection diodes clamp the analog input to VDD
and GND. These diodes allow the analog inputs to swing
from (GND - 0.3V) to (VDD + 0.3V) without causing damage to the device. For accurate conversions, the inputs
must not go more than 50mV below GND or above VDD.

Slave Address
A bus master initiates communication with a slave
device by issuing a START condition followed by a
slave address. When idle, the MAX11644/MAX11645
continuously wait for a START condition followed by
their slave address. When the MAX11644/MAX11645
recognize their slave address, they are ready to accept
or send data. The slave address is factory programmed
to 0110110. The least significant bit (LSB) of the
address byte (R/W) determines whether the master is
writing to or reading from the MAX11644/MAX11645
(R/W = 0 selects a write condition, R/W = 1 selects a
read condition). After receiving the address, the
MAX11644/MAX11645 (slave) issues an acknowledge
by pulling SDA low for one clock cycle.

timing for the MAX11644/MAX11645’s 2-wire interface.
HS Mode
At power-up, the MAX11644/MAX11645 bus timing is
set for F/S mode. The bus master selects HS mode by
addressing all devices on the bus with the HS-mode
master code 0000 1XXX (X = don’t care). After successfully receiving the HS-mode master code, the
MAX11644/MAX11645 issue a not-acknowledge, allowing SDA to be pulled high for one clock cycle (Figure
8). After the not-acknowledge, the MAX11644/
MAX11645 are in HS mode. The bus master must then
send a repeated START followed by a slave address to
initiate HS mode communication. If the master generates a STOP condition, the MAX11644/MAX11645
return to F/S mode.
Bus Timing
At power-up, the MAX11644/MAX11645 bus timing is
set for fast-mode (F/S mode), which allows conversion
rates up to 22.2ksps. The MAX11644/MAX11645 must

clock. On the falling edge of the ninth clock, the analog
signal is acquired and the conversion begins. While
converting the analog input signal, the MAX11644/
MAX11645 hold SCL low (clock stretching). After the
conversion completes, the results are stored in internal
memory. If the scan mode is set for multiple conversions, they all happen in succession with each additional result stored in memory. The MAX11644/
MAX11645 contain two 12-bit blocks of memory. Once
all conversions are complete, the MAX11644/
MAX11645 release SCL, allowing it to be pulled high.
The master can now clock the results out of the memory in the same order the scan conversion has been
done at a clock rate of up to 1.7MHz. SCL is stretched
for a maximum of 8.3µs per channel (see Figure 10).
The device memory contains all of the conversion
results when the MAX11644/MAX11645 release SCL.
The converted results are read back in a first-in-first-out
(FIFO) sequence. The memory contents can be read
continuously. If reading continues past the result stored
in memory, the pointer wraps around and points to the
first result. Note that only the current conversion results
are read from memory. The device must be addressed
with a read command to obtain new conversion results.
The internal clock mode’s clock stretching quiets the
SCL bus signal, reducing the system noise during conversion. Using the internal clock also frees the bus
master (typically a microcontroller) from the burden of
running the conversion clock, allowing it to perform
other tasks that do not need to use the bus.
Clock Modes
The clock mode determines the conversion clock and
the data acquisition and conversion time. The clock
mode also affects the scan mode. The state of the setup byte’s CLK bit determines the clock mode (Table 1).
At power-up, the MAX11644/MAX11645 are defaulted
to internal clock mode (CLK = 0).
Internal Clock
When configured for internal clock mode (CLK = 0), the
MAX11644/MAX11645 use their internal oscillator as
the conversion clock. In internal clock mode, the
MAX11644/MAX11645 begin tracking the analog input
after a valid address on the eighth rising edge of the

Data Byte (Read Cycle)
A read cycle must be initiated to obtain conversion
results. Read cycles begin with the bus master issuing a
START condition followed by seven address bits and a
read bit (R/W = 1). If the address byte is successfully
received, the MAX11644/MAX11645 (slave) issues an
acknowledge. The master then reads from the slave.
The result is transmitted in 2 bytes; first 4 bits of the first
byte are high, then MSB through LSB are consecutively
clocked out. After the master has received the byte(s), it
can issue an acknowledge if it wants to continue reading or a not-acknowledge if it no longer wishes to read.
If the MAX11644/MAX11645 receive a not-acknowledge, they release SDA, allowing the master to generate
a STOP or a repeated START condition. See the Clock
Modes and Scan Mode sections for detailed information
on how data is obtained and converted.

1-/2-Channel, 2-Wire Serial, 12-Bit ADCs
External Clock
When configured for external clock mode (CLK = 1),
the MAX11644/MAX11645 use the SCL as the conversion clock. In external clock mode, the MAX11644/
MAX11645 begin tracking the analog input on the ninth
rising clock edge of a valid slave address byte. Two
SCL clock cycles later, the analog signal is acquired
and the conversion begins. Unlike the internal clock
mode, converted data is available immediately after the
first four empty high bits. The device continuously converts input channels dictated by the scan mode until
given a not-acknowledge. There is no need to readdress the device with a read command to obtain new
conversion results (see Figure 11).
The conversion must complete in 1ms, or droop on the
track-and-hold capacitor degrades conversion results.
Use internal clock mode if the SCL clock period
exceeds 60µs.
The MAX11644/MAX11645 must operate in external
clock mode for conversion rates from 40ksps to
94.4ksps. Below 40ksps, internal clock mode is recommended due to much smaller power consumption.
Scan Mode
SCAN0 and SCAN1 of the configuration byte set the
scan mode configuration. Table 5 shows the scanning
configurations. The scanned results are written to memory in the same order as the conversion. Read the results
from memory in the order they were converted. Each
result needs a 2-byte transmission; the first byte begins
with 4 empty bits, during which SDA is left high. Each
byte has to be acknowledged by the master or the memory transmission is terminated. It is not possible to read
the memory independently of conversion.

Applications Information
Power-On Reset
The configuration and setup registers (Tables 1 and 2)
default to a single-ended, unipolar, single-channel conversion on AIN0 using the internal clock with VDD as the
reference. The memory contents are unknown after
power-up.
Automatic Shutdown
Automatic shutdown occurs between conversions when
the MAX11644/MAX11645 are idle. All analog circuits
participate in automatic shutdown except the internal
reference due to its prohibitively long wake-up time.
When operating in external clock mode, a STOP, notacknowledge, or repeated START condition must be
issued to place the devices in idle mode and benefit
from automatic shutdown. A STOP condition is not necessary in internal clock mode to benefit from automatic
shutdown because power-down occurs once all conversion results are written to memory (Figure 10). When
using an external reference or VDD as a reference, all
analog circuitry is inactive in shutdown and supply current is less than 0.5µA. The digital conversion results
obtained in internal clock mode are maintained in memory during shutdown and are available for access
through the serial interface at any time prior to a STOP
or a repeated START condition.
When idle, the MAX11644/MAX11645 continuously wait
for a START condition followed by their slave address
(see the Slave Address section). Upon reading a valid
address byte, the MAX11644/MAX11645 power up. The
internal reference requires 10ms to wake up, so when
using the internal reference it should be powered up
10ms prior to conversion or powered continuously.
Wake-up is invisible when using an external reference
or VDD as the reference.
Automatic shutdown results in dramatic power savings,
particularly at slow conversion rates and with internal
clock. For example, at a conversion rate of 10ksps, the
average supply current for the MAX11645 is 60µA (typ)
and drops to 6µA (typ) at 1ksps. At 0.1ksps the average supply current is just 1µA, or a minuscule 3µW of
power consumption. See Average Supply Current vs.
Conversion Rate (External Clock) in the Typical
Operating Characteristics section).
Reference Voltage
SEL[2:0] of the setup byte (Table 1) control the reference configuration (Table 6).
Internal Reference
The internal reference is 4.096V for the MAX11644 and
2.048V for the MAX11645. When REF is configured to
be an internal reference output (SEL[2:1] = 11), decouple REF to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor and a 2kΩ
series resistor (see the Typical Operating Circuit). Once
powered up, the reference always remains on until
reconfigured. The internal reference requires 10ms to
wake up and is accessed using SEL0 (Table 6). When
in shutdown, the internal reference output is in a highimpedance state. The reference should not be used to
supply current for external circuitry. The internal reference does not require an external bypass capacitor
and works best when left unconnected (SEL1 = 0).
External Reference
The external reference can range from 1V to VDD. For
maximum conversion accuracy, the reference must be
able to deliver up to 40µA and have an output impedance of 500kΩ or less. If the reference has a higher
output impedance or is noisy, bypass it to GND as
close as possible to REF with a 0.1µF capacitor.

Output data coding for the MAX11644/MAX11645 is
binary in unipolar mode and two’s complement in bipolar mode with 1 LSB = (VREF/2N) where N is the number
of bits (12). Code transitions occur halfway between
successive-integer LSB values. Figures 12 and 13
show the input/output (I/O) transfer functions for unipolar and bipolar operations, respectively.
Layout, Grounding, and Bypassing
Only use PCBs. Wire-wrap configurations are not recommended since the layout should ensure proper separation of analog and digital traces. Do not run analog
and digital lines parallel to each other, and do not layout digital signal paths underneath the ADC package.
Use separate analog and digital PCB ground sections
with only one star point (Figure 14) connecting the two
ground systems (analog and digital). For lowest noise
operation, ensure the ground return to the star ground’s
power supply is low impedance and as short as possible. Route digital signals far away from sensitive analog
and reference inputs.
High-frequency noise in the power supply (VDD) could
influence the proper operation of the ADC’s fast comparator. Bypass VDD to the star ground with a network of two
parallel capacitors, 0.1µF and 4.7µF, located as close as
possible to the MAX11644/MAX11645 power-supply pin.
Minimize capacitor lead length for best supply noise
rejection, and add an attenuation resistor (5Ω) in series
with the power supply if it is extremely noisy.
Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity
Integral nonlinearity (INL) is the deviation of the values
on an actual transfer function from a straight line. This
straight line can be either a best straight-line fit or a line
drawn between the endpoints of the transfer function,
once offset and gain errors have been nullified. The
MAX11644/MAX11645’s INL is measured using the
endpoint.
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 less than 1 LSB guarantees
no missing codes and a monotonic transfer function.
Aperture Jitter
Aperture jitter (tAJ) is the sample-to-sample variation in
the time between the samples.
Aperture Delay
Aperture delay (tAD) is the time between the falling
edge of the sampling clock and the instant when an
actual sample is taken.

Effective number of bits (ENOB) indicates the global
accuracy of an ADC at a specific input frequency and
sampling rate. An ideal ADC’s error consists of quantization noise only. With an input range equal to the
ADC’s full-scale range, calculate the ENOB as follows:
ENOB = (SINAD - 1.76)/6.02

Signal-to-Noise Ratio
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):
SNRMAX[dB] = 6.02dB x N + 1.76dB
In reality, there are other noise sources besides quantization noise: thermal noise, reference noise, clock jitter,
etc. SNR is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS
signal to the RMS noise, which includes all spectral
components minus the fundamental, the first five harmonics, and the DC offset.
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the RMS
sum of the input signal’s first five harmonics to the fundamental itself. This is expressed as:
⎛ ⎛ 2
⎞
V + V32 + V42 + V52 ⎞
THD = 20 × log ⎜ ⎜ 2
⎟⎟

where V1 is the fundamental amplitude, and V2 through
V5 are the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 5th-order
harmonics.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
Spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is the ratio of the
RMS amplitude of the fundamental (maximum signal
component) to the RMS value of the next largest distortion component.

Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion
Signal-to-noise plus distortion (SINAD) is the ratio of the
