MAX11120–MAX11128  
1Msps, Low-Power, Serial 12-/10-/8-Bit,  
4-/8-/16-Channel ADCs  
General Description  
Benefits and Features  
Scan Modes, Internal Averaging, and Internal Clock  
16-Entry First-In/First-Out (FIFO)  
SampleSet: User-Defined Channel Sequence with  
Maximum Length of 256  
Analog Multiplexer with True Differential Track/Hold  
• 16-/8-/4-Channel Single-Ended  
8-/4-/2-Channel Fully-Differential Pairs  
15-/8-/4-Channel Pseudo-Differential Relative to a  
Common Input  
Two Software-Selectable Bipolar Input Ranges  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 are 12-/10-/8-bit with external  
reference and industry-leading 1.5MHz, full linear band-  
width, high speed, low-power, serial output successive-  
approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters  
(ADCs). The MAX11120–MAX11128 include both internal  
and external clock modes. These devices feature scan  
mode in both internal and external clock modes. The inter-  
nal clock mode features internal averaging to increase  
SNR. The external clock mode features the SampleSet™  
technology, a user-programmable analog input channel  
sequencer. The SampleSet approach provides greater  
sequencing flexibility for multichannel applications while  
alleviating significant microcontroller or DSP (controlling  
unit) communication overhead.

Flexible Input Configuration Across All Channels  
High Accuracy  
The internal clock mode features an integrated FIFO  
allowing data to be sampled at high speeds and then held  
for readout at any time or at a lower clock rate. Internal  
averaging is also supported in this mode improving SNR  
for noisy input signals. The devices feature analog input  
channels that can be configured to be single-ended  
inputs, fully differential pairs, or pseudo-differential inputs  
with respect to one common input. The MAX11120–  
MAX11128 operate from a 2.35V to 3.6V supply and  
consume only 5.4mW at 1Msps.  
• ±1 LSB INL, ±1 LSB DNL, No Missing Codes  
Over Temperature Range  
70dB SINAD Guaranteed at 250kHz Input Frequency  
1.5V to 3.6V Wide Range I/O Supply  
• Allows the Serial Interface to Connect Directly to  
1.8V, 2.5V, or 3.3V Digital Systems  
2.35V to 3.6V Supply Voltage  
Longer Battery Life for Portable Applications  
• Low Power  
• 5.4mW at 1Msps with 3V Supplies  
2μA Full-Shutdown Current  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 include AutoShutdown™, fast  
wake-up, and a high-speed 3-wire serial interface. The  
devices feature full power-down mode for optimal power  
management.

ing data to be sampled at high speed and then held for  
readout at any time or at a lower clock rate. Internal aver-  
aging is also supported in this mode improving SNR for  
noisy input signals. All input channels are configurable for  
single-ended, fully differential or pseudo-differential inputs  
in unipolar or bipolar mode. The MAX11120–MAX11128  
operate from a 2.35V to 3.6V supply and consume only  
5.4mW at 1Msps.  
Detailed Description  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 are 12-/10-/8-bit with external  
reference and industry-leading 1.5MHz, full linear band-  
width, high-speed, low-power, serial output successive-  
approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters  
(ADC). These devices feature scan mode, internal aver-  
aging to increase SNR, and AutoShutdown.  
The external clock mode features the SampleSet technol-  
ogy, a user-programmable analog input channel sequenc-  
er. The user may define and load a unique sequencing  
pattern into the ADC allowing both high- and low-fre-  
quency inputs to be converted without interface activity.  
This feature frees the controlling unit for other tasks while  
lowering overall system noise and power consumption.  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 include AutoShutdown, fast  
wake-up, and a high-speed 3-wire serial interface. The  
devices feature full power-down mode for optimal power  
management.  
Data is converted from analog voltage sources in a  
variety of channel and data-acquisition configurations.  
Microprocessor (µP) control is made easy through a 3-wire  
SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface.  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 includes internal clock. The  
internal clock mode features an integrated FIFO, allow-

1Msps, Low-Power, Serial 12-/10-/8-Bit,  
4-/8-/16-Channel ADCs  
Set CS low to latch input data at DIN on the rising edge  
of SCLK. Output data at DOUT is updated on the falling  
edge of SCLK. A high-to-low transition on CS samples  
the analog inputs and initiates a new frame. A frame is  
defined as the time between two falling edges of CS.  
There is a minimum of 16 bits per frame. The serial data  
input, DIN, carries data into the control registers clocked  
in by the rising edge of SCLK. The serial data output,  
DOUT, delivers the conversion results and is clocked out  
by the falling edge of SCLK. DOUT is a 16-bit data word  
containing a 4-bit channel address, followed by a 12-bit  
conversion result led by the MSB when CHAN_ID is set  
to 1 in the ADC Mode Control register (Figure 2a). In  
this mode, keep the clock high for at least one full SCLK  
period before the CS falling edge to ensure best perfor-  
mance (Figure 2b). When CHAN_ID is set to 0 (external  
clock mode only), the 16-bit data word includes a leading  
zero and the 12-bit conversion result is followed by 3 trail-  
ing zeros (Figure 2c). In the 10-bit ADC, the last 2 LSBs  
are set to 0. In the 8-bit ADC, the last 4 LSBs are set to 0.  
Input Bandwidth  
The ADC’s input-tracking circuitry features a 1.5MHz,  
small-signal, full-linear bandwidth to digitize high-speed  
transient events and measure periodic signals with  
bandwidths exceeding the ADC’s sampling rate by using  
undersampling techniques. Anti-alias filtering of the input  
signals is necessary to avoid high-frequency signals alias-  
ing into the frequency band of interest.  
3-Wire Serial Interface  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 feature a serial interface  
compatible with SPI/QSPI and MICROWIRE devices. For  
SPI/QSPI, ensure the CPU serial interface runs in master  
mode to generate the serial clock signal. Select the SCLK  
frequency of 16MHz or less, and set clock polarity (CPOL)  
and phase (CPHA) in the µP control registers to the same  
value. The MAX11120–MAX11128 operate with SCLK  
idling high, and thus operate with CPOL = CPHA = 1.

Control register (Table 2). The wake-up, acquisition, con-  
version, and shutdown sequences are initiated through  
CNVST and are performed automatically using the inter-  
nal oscillator. Results are added to the internal FIFO.  
Internal FIFO  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 contain a FIFO buffer that can  
hold up to 16 ADC results. This allows the ADC to handle  
multiple internally clocked conversions without tying up  
the serial bus. If the FIFO is filled and further conversions  
are requested without reading from the FIFO, the oldest  
ADC results are overwritten by the new ADC results. Each  
result contains 2 bytes, with the MSB preceded by four  
leading channel address bits. After each falling edge of  
CS, the oldest available byte of data is available at DOUT.  
When the FIFO is empty, DOUT is zero.  
With CS high, initiate a scan by setting CNVST low for  
at least 5ns before pulling it high (Figure 6). Then, the  
MAX11120–MAX11128 wake up, scan all requested chan-  
nels, store the results in the FIFO, and shut down. After  
the scan is complete, EOC is pulled low and the results  
are available in the FIFO. Wait until EOC goes low before  
pulling CS low to communicate with the serial interface.  
EOC stays low until CS or CNVST is pulled low again.  
Do not initiate a second CNVST before EOC goes low;  
otherwise, the FIFO may become corrupted.  
External Clock  
In external clock mode, the analog inputs are sampled at  
the falling edge of CS. Serial clock (SCLK) is used to per-  
form the conversion. The sequencer reads in the channel  
to be converted from the serial data input (DIN) at each  
frame. The conversion results are sent to the serial output  
(DOUT) at the next frame.  
Alternatively, set SWCNV to 1 in the ADC Mode Control  
register to initiate conversions with CS rising edge instead  
of cycling CNVST (Table 2). For proper operation, CS  
must be held low for 17 clock cycles to guarantee that the  
device interprets the SWCNV setting. A delay is initiated  
at the rising edge of CS and the conversion is started  
when the delay times out. Upon completing the conver-  
sion, this bit is reset to 0 (Figure 7). Apply a soft reset  
when changing from internal to external clock mode:  
RESET[1:0] = 10.  
Internal Clock  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 operate from an internal  
oscillator, which is accurate within ±15% of the 13.33MHz  
nominal clock rate. Request internally timed conversions  
by writing the appropriate sequence to the ADC Mode

Analog Input  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 produce a digital output that  
corresponds to the analog input voltage as long as the  
analog inputs are within the specified operating range.  
Internal protection diodes confine the analog input voltage  
within the region of the analog power input rails (V  
GND) and allow the analog input voltage to swing from  
GND - 0.3V to V + 0.3V without damaging the device.  
Input voltages beyond GND - 0.3V and V  
ward bias the internal protection diodes. Limit the forward

Scan Modes  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 feature nine scan modes  
(Table 3).  
SampleSet  
The SampleSet mode of operation allows the definition of  
a unique channel sequence combination with maximum  
length of 256. SampleSet is supported only in the external  
clock mode. SampleSet is ideally suited for multichannel  
measurement applications where some analog inputs  
must be converted more often than others.  
Manual Mode  
The next channel to be selected is identified in each SPI  
frame. The conversion results are sent out in the next  
frame. The manual mode works with the external clock  
only. The FIFO is unused.  
Repeat Mode  
The SampleSet approach provides greater sequencing  
flexibility for multichannel applications while alleviating  
significant microcontroller or DSP (controlling unit) com-  
munication overhead. SampleSet technology allows the  
user to exploit available ADC input bandwidth without  
need for constant communication between the ADC and  
controlling unit. The user may define and load a unique  
sequencing pattern into the ADC allowing both high- and  
low-frequency inputs to be converted appropriately with-  
out interface activity. With the unique sequence loaded  
Repeat scanning channel N for number of times and store  
all the conversion results in the FIFO. The number of  
scans is programmed in the ADC Configuration register.  
The repeat mode works with the internal clock only.

all 16 channels must be measured, with some channels

Averaging Mode  
Register Descriptions  
In averaging mode, the device performs the specified  
number of conversions and returns the average for each  
requested result in the FIFO. The averaging mode works  
with internal clock only.  
The MAX11120–MAX11128 communicate between the  
internal registers and the external circuitry through the  
SPI-/QSPI-compatible serial interface. Table 1 details  
the register access and control. Table 2 through Table 14  
detail the various functions and configurations.  
Scan Modes and Unipolar/Bipolar Setting  
For ADC mode control, set bit 15 of the register code  
identification to zero. The ADC Mode Control register  
determines when and under what scan condition the ADC  
operates.  
When the Unipolar or Bipolar registers are configured  
as pseudo-differential or fully differential, the analog  
input pairs are repeated in this automated mode. For  
example, if N is set to 15 to scan all 16 channels and  
all analog input pairs are configured for fully-differential  
conversion, the ADC converts the channels twice. In this  
case, the user may avoid dual conversions on input pairs  
by implementing Manual mode or using Custom_Int or  
Custom_Ext scan modes.  
To set the ADC data configuration, set the bit 15 of the  
register code identification to one.

ADC OUTPUT as a Function  
of Unipolar and Bipolar Modes  
The ADC Scan Control register (Table 3) determines the  
ADC mode of operation. The Unipolar and Bipolar reg-  
isters in Table 10 and Table 11 determine output coding  
and whether input configuration is single-ended or fully  
differential.  
SampleSet Mode of Operation  
The SampleSet register stores the unique channel  
sequence length. The sequence pattern is comprised of  
up to 256 unique single-ended and/or differential conver-  
sions with any order or pattern.  
Patterns are assembled in 4-bit channel identifier nib-  
bles as described in Table 14. Figure 10 presents the  
SampleSet timing diagram. Note that two CS frames are  
required to configure the SampleSet functionality. The first  
frame indicates the sequence length. The second frame is  
used to encode the channel sequence pattern.  
Table 9 details the conversion output for analog inputs,  
AIN0 and AIN1. The truth table is consistent for any  
other valid input pairs (AINn/AINn+1). Table 8 shows the  
applicable input signal format with respect to analog input  
configurations.  
After the SampleSet register has been coded (Table 14),  
by the next falling edge of CS, the new SampleSet pattern  
is activated (Figure 10). If the pattern length is less than  
SEQ_LENGTH, the remaining channels default to AIN0.  
If the select pattern length is greater than SEQ_LENGTH,  
the additional data is ignored as the ADC waits for the ris-  
ing edge of CS. If CS is asserted in the middle of a nibble,  
the full nibble defaults to AIN0.  
CHSEL[3:0] is used for MANUAL, REPEAT, STANDARD_  
EXT, STANDARD_INT, UPPER_EXT, UPPER_INT modes  
of operation. CHSCAN[15:0] is used for CUSTOM_EXT  
and CUSTOM_INT modes of operation.

Upon receiving the SampleSet pattern, the user can  
set the ADC Mode Control register to begin the conver-  
sion process where data readout begins with the first  
SampleSet entry. While the last conversion result is  
read, the ADC can be instructed to enter AutoShutdown,  
if desired. If the user wishes to change the SampleSet  
length, a new pattern must be loaded into the ADC as  
described in Figure 10.  
Layout, Grounding, and Bypassing  
For best performance, use PCBs with a solid ground  
plane. Ensure that digital and analog signal lines are  
separated from each other. Do not run analog and digital  
(especially clock) lines parallel to one another or digital  
lines underneath the ADC package. Noise in the V  
OVDD, and REF affects the ADC’s performance. Bypass  
,
DD  
the V , OVDD, and REF to ground with 0.1µF and 10µF

bypass capacitors. Minimize capacitor lead and trace  
lengths for best supply-noise rejection.  
Applications Information  
How to Program Modes  
1) Configure the ADC (set the MSB on DIN to 1).  
Choosing an Input Amplifier  
It is important to match the settling time of the input ampli-  
fier to the acquisition time of the ADC. The conversion  
results are accurate when the ADC samples the input  
signal for an interval longer than the input signal’s worst-  
case settling time. By definition, settling time is the interval  
between the application of an input voltage step and the  
point at which the output signal reaches and stays within  
a given error band centered on the resulting steady-state  
amplifier output level. The ADC input sampling capaci-  
tor charges during the sampling cycle, referred to as  
the acquisition period. During this acquisition period, the  
settling time is affected by the input resistance and the  
input sampling capacitance. This error can be estimated  
by looking at the settling of an RC time constant using  
the input capacitance and the source impedance over  
the acquisition time period. Figure 13 shows a typical  
application circuit. The MAX4430, offering a settling time  
of 37ns at 16-bit resolution, is an excellent choice for this  
application. See the THD vs. Input Resistance graph in  
the Typical Operating Characteristics.  
2) Program ADC mode control (set the MSB on DIN to  
0) to begin the conversion process or to control power  
management features.  
If ADC mode control is written during a conversion  
sequence, the ADC finishes the present conver-  
sion and at the next falling edge of CS initiates its  
new instruction.  
● If configuration data (MSB on DIN is a 1) is written  
during a conversion sequence, the ADC finishes  
the present conversion in the existing scan mode.  
However, data on DOUT is not valid in following  
frames until a new ADC mode control instruction is  
coded.

Choosing a Reference  
For devices using an external reference, the choice of the  
reference determines the output accuracy of the ADC.  
An ideal voltage reference provides a perfect initial accu-  
racy and maintains the reference voltage independent  
of changes in load current, temperature, and time. The  
following parameters need to be considered in selecting  
a reference:  
Current source capability  
Current sink capability  
Quiescent current  
Noise. The MAX6033 and MAX6043 are also excellent  
reference choices (Figure 13).

Total Harmonic Distortion  
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is expressed as:  
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 end points of the transfer function,  
once offset and gain errors have been nulled. The static  
linearity parameters for the MAX11120–MAX11128 are  
measured using the end-points method.

where V is the fundamental amplitude, and V through V

are the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 5th-order harmonics.

Spurious-Free Dynamic Range  
Differential Nonlinearity  
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 distor-  
tion component.  
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is the difference between  
an actual step width and the ideal value of 1 LSB. A DNL  
error specification of 1 LSB or less guarantees no missing  
codes and a monotonic transfer function.  
Full-Power Bandwidth  
Full-power bandwidth is the frequency at which the input  
signal amplitude attenuates by 3dB for a full-scale input.  
Signal-to-Noise Ratio  
Signal-to-noise ratio is the ratio of the amplitude of the  
desired signal to the amplitude of noise signals at a given  
point in time. The larger the number, the better. The  
theoretical minimum analog-to-digital noise is caused  
by quantization error and results directly from the ADC’s  
resolution (N bits):  
Full-Linear Bandwidth  
Full-linear bandwidth is the frequency at which the signal-  
to-noise plus distortion (SINAD) is more than 68dB.  
Intermodulation Distortion  
SNR = (6.02 x N + 1.76) dB  
Any device with nonlinearities creates distortion products  
when two sine waves at two different frequencies (f1 and  
f2) are input into the device. Intermodulation distortion  
(IMD) is the total power of the IM2 to IM5 intermodula-  
tion products to the Nyquist frequency relative to the total  
input power of the two input tones, f1 and f2. The indi-  
vidual input tone levels are at -6dBFS.  
In reality, there are other noise sources besides quantiza-  
tion noise, including thermal noise, reference noise, clock  
jitter, etc. Therefore, 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.
