_______________General Description

The MAX1248/MAX1249 10-bit data-acquisition sys-
tems combine a 4-channel multiplexer, high-bandwidth
track/hold, and serial interface with high conversion
speed and low power consumption. They operate from
a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply, and their analog
inputs are software configurable for unipolar/bipolar
and single-ended/differential operation.
The 4-wire serial interface connects directly to SPI™/
QSPI™ and MICROWIRE™ devices without external
logic. A serial strobe output allows direct connection
to TMS320-family digital signal processors. The
MAX1248/MAX1249 use either the internal clock or an
external serial-interface clock to perform successive-
approximation analog-to-digital conversions.
The MAX1248 has an internal 2.5V reference, while the
MAX1249 requires an external reference. Both parts
have a reference-buffer amplifier with a ±1.5% voltage
adjustment range.
These devices provide a hard-wired SHDN pin and a
software-selectable power-down, and can be pro-
grammed to automatically shut down at the end of a
conversion. Accessing the serial interface automatically
powers up the MAX1248/MAX1249, and the quick
turn-on time allows them to be shut down between all
conversions. This technique can cut supply current to
under 60µA at reduced sampling rates.
The MAX1248/MAX1249 are available in a 16-pin DIP
and a very small QSOP that occupies the same board
area as an 8-pin SO.
For 8-channel versions of these devices, see the
MAX148/MAX149 data sheet.
