The MAX113/MAX117 are microprocessor-compatible, 8-bit, 4-channel and 8-channel analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). They operate from a single +3V supply and use a half-flash technique to achieve a 1.8µs conversion time (400ksps). A power-down pin (active-low PWRDN) reduces current consumption to 1µA typical. The devices return from power-down mode to normal operating mode in less than 900ns, allowing large supply-current reductions in Burst Mode® applications. (In Burst Mode, the ADC wakes up from a low-power state at specified intervals to sample the analog input signals.) Both converters include a track/hold, enabling the ADC to digitize fast analog signals.Microprocessor (µP) interfaces are simplified because the ADC can appear as a memory location or I/O port without external interface logic. The data outputs use latched, three-state buffer circuitry for direct connection to an 8-bit parallel µP data bus or system input port. The MAX113/MAX117 input/reference configuration enables ratiometric operation.The 4-channel MAX113 is available in a 24-pin DIP or SSOP. The 8-channel MAX117 is available in a 28-pin DIP or SSOP. For +5V applications, refer to the MAX114/MAX118 data sheet.ApplicationsBattery-Powered ApplicationsCommunication SystemsPortable EquipmentRemote Data AcquisitionSystem-Health Monitoring

The MAX1182 is a 3V, dual 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) featuring fully-differential wideband track-and-hold (T/H) inputs, driving two pipelined, 9-stage ADCs. The MAX1182 is optimized for low-power, high-dynamic performance applications in imaging, instrumentation and digital communication applications. This ADC operates from a single 2.7V to 3.6V supply, consuming only 195mW while delivering a typical signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 59dB at an input frequency of 20MHz and a sampling rate of 65Msps. The T/H driven input stages incorporate 400MHz (-3dB) input amplifiers. The converters may also be operated with single-ended inputs. In addition to low operating power, the MAX1182 features a 2.8mA sleep mode as well as a 1µA power-down mode to conserve power during idle periods.An internal 2.048V precision bandgap reference sets the full-scale range of the ADC. A flexible reference structure allows the use of the internal or an externally derived reference, if desired for applications requiring increased accuracy or a different input voltage range.The MAX1182 features parallel, CMOS-compatible three-state outputs. The digital output format is set to two's complement or straight offset binary through a single control pin. The device provides for a separate output power supply of 1.7V to 3.6V for flexible interfacing. The MAX1182 is available in a 7mm x 7mm, 48-pin TQFP package, and is specified for the extended industrial (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.Pin-compatible higher and lower speed versions of the MAX1182 are also available. Please refer to the MAX1180 data sheet for 105Msps, the MAX1181 data sheet for 80Msps, the MAX1183 data sheet for 40Msps, and the MAX1184 data sheet for 20Msps. In addition to these speed grades, this family includes a 20Msps multiplexed output version (MAX1185), for which digital data is presented time-interleaved on a single, parallel 10-bit output port.ApplicationsHigh-Resolution ImagingI/Q Channel DigitizationInstrumentationMultichannel IF UndersamplingVideo Application
