The MAX144/MAX145 low-power, 12-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are available in 8-pin µMAX® and DIP packages. Both devices operate with a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply and feature a 7.4µs successive- approximation ADC, automatic power-down, fast wake-up (2.5µs), an on-chip clock, and a high-speed, 3-wire serial interface.Power consumption is only 3.2mW (VDD= +3.6V) at the maximum sampling rate of 108ksps. At slower throughput rates, the automatic shutdown (0.2µA) further reduces power consumption.The MAX144 provides 2-channel, single-ended operation and accepts input signals from 0 to VREF. The MAX145 accepts pseudo-differential inputs ranging from 0 to VREF. An external clock accesses data-through the 3-wire serial interface, which is SPI™, QSPI™, and MICROWIRE™-compatible.Excellent dynamic performance and low power, combined with ease of use and small package size, make these converters ideal for battery-powered and data-acquisition applications, or for other circuits with demanding power-consumption and space requirements.

The MAX14500–MAX14503 USB-to-SD™ card readers provide a means for portable devices that support full-speed USB communication (12Mbps) with one or two SD card slots, upgrading the USB SD card reader function to USB Hi-Speed (480Mbps) operation. The MAX14500–MAX14503 have two modes of operation: Pass Thru and Card Reader. In pass thru, the SD and USB signals pass through the MAX14500–MAX14503 without modification, appearing like the device is not present. The host microprocessor firmware does not need modification, as there is no change from the host microprocessor's perspective. In Card Reader mode, the MAX14500–MAX14503 implement a Hi-Speed USB card reader that operates independently of the host microprocessor. All the capabilities of the full-speed USB port and SD card slot are preserved with the additional feature that allows a faster way for a PC to read or write to the SD card. The MAX14500–MAX14503 support SD high capacity SDHC cards. The 40-pin TQFN version supports one SD card, while the 56-bump WLP version supports two SD cards.The MAX14500–MAX14503 feature advanced power-saving modes to reduce power consumption in portable applications. The low-power Sleep modes allow the ability to disable internal circuit blocks, providing power-saving operating modes. The default clock input for each part number is specified in the ordering information. The MAX14500–MAX14503 feature the option to change the default values using the I²C interface.The MAX14502 is available in a 5mm × 5mm, 40-pin TQFN package. This device operates over a wide supply voltage range and are specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.ApplicationsCell PhonesDigital Still CamerasGPSMP3 PlayersPDAs

The MAX14504/MAX14505/MAX14505A/MAX14506 dual single-pole/double-throw (SPDT) audio switches feature negative signal capability that allows signals from -VCCto +VCCto pass without distortion. They feature high continuous current ratings of 550mA (continuous) and 850mA (pulsed).

This reduces click-and-pop sounds that occur when switching audio signals between precharged points. The MAX14504/MAX14505/MAX14505A/MAX14506 control the switches with control bit, CB, and feature an enable input, active-low EN, that place COM in a high-impedance mode.The MAX14504/MAX14505/MAX14505A/MAX14506 are fully specified to operate from a single +2.3V to +5.5V power supply. These devices are available in a 1.56mm x 2.14mm, 12-bump WLP package, and operate over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.ApplicationsCell PhonesMP3 PlayersPortable Audio EquipmentSpeaker Switching
