It operates with single +3V or dual ±3V supplies and accepts either unipolar or bipolar inputs. –————————– A P O W E R D O W N pin reduces current consumption to a typical value of 1µA. The part returns from powerdown and acquires an input signal in less than 900ns, providing large reductions in supply current in applications with burst-mode input signals. The MAX152 is DC and dynamically tested. Its µP interface appears as a memory location or input/output port that requires no external interface logic. The data outputs use latched, three-state buffered circuitry for direct connection to a µP data bus or system input port. The ADC's input/reference arrangement enables ratiometric operation. A fullyassembled evaluation kit provides a proven PC board layout to speed prototyping and design. _______________________Applications ___________________________Features ♦ Single +3.0V to +3.6V Supply ♦ 1.8µs Conversion Time ♦ Power-Up in 900ns ♦ Internal Track/Hold ♦ 400ksps Throughput ♦ Low Power: 1.5mA (Operating Mode) 1µA (Power-Down Mode) ♦ 300kHz Full-Power Bandwidth ♦ 20-Pin DIP, SO and SSOP Packages ♦ No External Clock Required ♦ Unipolar/Bipolar Inputs ♦ Ratiometric Reference Inputs ♦ 2.7V Version Available – Contact Factory ______________Ordering Information PART PIN-PACKAGE TEMP.

Load Circuits for Data-Hold TIme Test _______________Detailed Description Converter Operation The MAX152 uses a half-flash conversion technique (see Functional Diagram) in which two 4-bit flash ADC sections achieve an 8-bit result. Using 15 comparators, the flash ADC compares the unknown input voltage to the reference ladder and provides the upper 4 data bits. An internal digital-to-analog converter (DAC) uses the 4 most significant bits (MSBs) to generate the analog result from the first flash conversion and a residue voltage that is the difference between the unknown input and the DAC voltage. The residue is then compared again with the flash comparators to obtain the lower 4 data bits (LSBs). The MAX152 is characterized for operation between +3.0V and +3.6V. Conversion times decrease as the supply voltage increases. The supply current decreases rapidly with decreasing supply voltage. (See Typical Operating Characteristics.) Power-Down Mode In burst-mode or low sample-rate applications, the MAX152 can be shut down between conversions, reducing supply current to microamp levels (see Typical Operating Characteristics). A logic low on the PWRDN pin shuts the device down, reducing supply current to typically 1µA when powered from a single 3V supply. A logic high on PWRDN wakes up the MAX152. A new conversion can be started within 900ns of the PWRDN pin being driven high (this includes both the power-up delay and the track/hold acquisition time). If power-down mode is not required, connect PWRDN to VDD. _______________________________________________________________________________________ +3V, 8-Bit ADC with 1µA Power-Down ___________________Digital Interface The MAX152 has two basic interface modes set by the status of the MODE input pin. When MODE is low, the converter is in the RD mode; when MODE is high, the converter is set up for the WR-RD mode. Write-Read Mode (MODE = 1) Figures 4 and 5 show the operating sequence for the write-read (WR-RD) mode. The comparator inputs track the analog input voltage for the duration of tP. The conversion is initiated by a falling edge of WR. When WR returns high, the 4 MSBs' flash result is latched into the output buffers and the 4 LSBs' conversion begins. INT goes low, indicating conversion end, and the lower 4 data bits are latched into the output buffers. The data is then accessible after RD goes low (see Timing Characteristics). Read Mode (MODE = 0) In RD mode, conversion control and data access are controlled by the RD input (Figure 3). The comparator inputs track the analog input voltage for the duration of tP. A conversion is initiated by driving RD low. With µPs that can be forced into a wait state, hold RD low until output data appears. The µP starts the conversion, waits, and then reads data with a single read instruction. WR/RDY is configured as a status output (RDY) in RD mode, where it can drive the ready or wait input of a µP. RDY is an open-collector output (with no internal pull-up) that goes low after the falling edge of CS and goes high at the end of the conversion. If not used, the WR/RDY pin can be left unconnected. The INT output goes low at the end of the conversion and returns high on the rising edge of CS or RD. PWRDN tUP CS WR tWR tCSS tP tCSH RD tREAD2 tRD INT tINTL D0-D7 VALID DATA tACC2 tDH Figure 4.

WR-RD Mode Timing (tRD < tINTL), Fastest Operating Mode (MODE = 1) _______________________________________________________________________________________ 7 MAX152 Once the MAX152 is in power-down mode, lowest supply current is drawn with MODE low (RD mode) due to an internal pull-down resistor at this pin. In addition, for minimum current consumption, other digital inputs should remain high in power-down. Refer to the Reference section for information on reducing reference current during power-down.

INT goes low after the rising edge of WR, indicating that the conversion is complete and the result is available in the output latch. With CS low, data outputs D0-D7 can be accessed by pulling RD low. INT is then reset by the rising edge of CS or RD. Fastest Conversion: Reading Before Delay An external method of controlling the conversion time is shown in Figure 5. The internally generated delay tINTL varies slightly with temperature and supply voltage, and can be overridden with RD to achieve the fastest conversion time. RD is brought low after the rising edge of WR, but before INT goes low. This completes the conversion and enables the output buffers (D0-D7) that contain the conversion result. INT also goes low after the falling edge of RD and is reset on the rising edge of RD or CS. The total conversion time is therefore: tCWR = tWR (600ns) + tRD (800ns) + tACC1 (400ns) = 1800ns. 8 6 +2.5V 12 2 LM10 1 VDD VREF+ MAX152 0.1 µF VREF- 4 11 Figure 7b.

An N-channel MOSFET switches off the reference load during power-down. _______________________________________________________________________________________ +3V, 8-Bit ADC with 1µA Power-Down Reference Figures 7a-7c show some reference connections. VREF+ and VREF- inputs set the full-scale and zeroinput voltages of the ADC. The voltage at VREFdefines the input that produces an output code of all zeros, and the voltage at VREF+ defines the input that produces an output code of all ones. The internal resistance from VREF+ to VREF- may be as low as 1kΩ, and current will flow through it even when the MAX152 is shut down. Figure 7d shows how an Nchannel MOSFET may be connected to VREF- to break this path during power-down. The FET should have an on resistance < 2Ω with a 3V gate drive. Although VREF+ is frequently connected to VDD, this circuit uses a low current, low-dropout, 2.5V voltage reference – the MAX872. Since the MAX872 cannot continuously furnish enough current for the reference resistance, this circuit is intended for applications where the MAX152 is normally in standby and is turned on in order to make measurements at intervals greater than 20µs. The capacitor C1 connected to VREF+ is slowly charged by the MAX872 during the standby period and furnishes the reference current during the short measurement period. The 2.2µF value of C1 is chosen so that its voltage drops by less than 1/2LSB during the conversion process. Larger capacitors reduce the error still further. Use ceramic or tantalum capacitors for C1. When VREF- is switched, as in Figure 7d, a new conversion can be initiated after waiting a time equal to the power-up delay (tUP) plus the turn-on time of the N-channel FET. Bypassing A 4.7µF electrolytic in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor should be used to bypass V DD to GND. These capacitors should have minimal lead length. The reference inputs should be bypassed with 0.1µF capacitors, as shown in Figures 7a-7c. Input Current Figure 8 shows the equivalent circuit of the converter input. When the conversion starts and WR is low, VIN is connected to sixteen 0.6pF capacitors. During this acquisition phase, the input capacitors charge to the input voltage through the resistance of the internal analog switches. In addition, about 12pF of stray capacitance must be charged. The input can be modeled as an equivalent RC network (Figure 9). As source impedance increases, the capacitors take longer to charge. The typical 22pF input capacitance allows source resistance as high as 2.2kΩ without setup problems. For larger resistances, the acquisition time (tP) must be increased.

This is expressed as: fmax = 1 t WR + t RD + t RI + t P e.g. at TA = +25°C, VDD = +3.0V : fmax = 1 600ns + 800ns + 300ns + 450ns fmax = 465kHz where t WR = Write pulse width t RD = Delay between WR and RD pulses t RI = RD to INT delay t P = Delay time between conversons. THD = 20 log 2 2 2 2 (V2 + V3 + V4 + L + VN ) V1 where V1 is the fundamental RMS amplitude, and V2 to VN are the amplitudes of the 2nd through Nth harmonics. Spurious-Free Dynamic Range Spurious-free dynamic range is the ratio of the fundamental RMS amplitude to the amplitude of the next largest spectral component (in the frequency band above DC and below one-half the sample rate). Usually the next largest spectral component occurs at some harmonic of the input frequency. However, if the ADC is exceptionally linear, it may occur only at a random peak in the ADC's noise floor. See "Signal to Noise Ratio" plot in Typical Operating Characteristics. Signal-to-Noise Ratio and Effective Number of Bits Signal-to-noise plus distortion ratio (SINAD) is the ratio of the fundamental input frequency's RMS amplitude to the RMS amplitude of all other ADC output signals. The output band is limited to frequencies above DC and below one-half the ADC sample rate. The theoretical minimum A/D noise is caused by quantization error, and results directly from the ADC's resolution: SNR = (6.02N + 1.76)dB, where N is the number of bits of resolution. Therefore, a perfect 8-bit ADC can do no better than 50dB. The FFT plot (Typical Operation Characteristics) shows the result of sampling a pure 30.27kHz sinusoid at a 400kHz rate. This FFT plot of the output shows the output level in various spectral bands. The effective resolution, or "effective number of bits," the ADC provides can be measured by transposing the equation that converts resolution to SNR: N = (SINAD 1.76)/6.02 (see Typical Operating Characteristics). 10 ______________________________________________________________________________________ +3V, 8-Bit ADC with 1µA Power-Down MAX152 ___________________Chip Topography MAX152 D0 VIN VDD VSS D1 PWRDN D2 D7 D3 D6 0.104" 2.64mm D5 WR/RDY D4 MODE CS RD INT GND VREF- VREF+ 0.098" 2.49mm TRANSISTOR COUNT: 1856 SUBSTRATE CONNECTED TO VDD ________________________________________________________Package Information DIM A A1 A2 A3 B B1 C D D1 E E1 e eA eB L α D1 E E1 D A2 A A3 INCHES MAX MIN 0.200 – – 0.015 0.150 0.125 0.080 0.055 0.022 0.016 0.065 0.050 0.012 0.008 1.045 1.015 0.070 0.040 0.325 0.300 0.280 0.240 0.100 BSC 0.300 BSC 0.400 – 0.150 0.115 15˚ 0˚ MILLIMETERS MIN MAX – 5.08 0.38 – 3.18 3.81 1.40 2.03 0.41 0.56 1.27 1.65 0.20 0.30 25.78 26.54 1.02 1.78 7.62 8.26 6.10 7.11 2.54 BSC 7.62 BSC – 10.16 2.92 3.81 0˚ 15˚ 21-333A α A1 L C e B1 B eA eB 20-PIN PLASTIC DUAL-IN-LINE PACKAGE ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 MAX152 +3V, 8-Bit ADC with 1µA Power-Down __________________________________________Package Information (continued) DIM E A A1 B C D E e H h L α H INCHES MAX MIN 0.104 0.093 0.012 0.004 0.019 0.014 0.013 0.009 0.512 0.496 0.299 0.291 0.050 BSC 0.419 0.394 0.030 0.010 0.050 0.016 8˚ 0˚ MILLIMETERS MIN MAX 2.35 2.65 0.10 0.30 0.35 0.49 0.23 0.32 12.60 13.00 7.40 7.60 1.27 BSC 10.00 10.65 0.25 0.75 0.40 1.27 0˚ 8˚ 21-334A h x 45˚ D α A 0.127mm 0.004in. e 12 B A1 C L 20-PIN PLASTIC SMALL-OUTLINE PACKAGE ______________________________________________________________________________________
