The MAX148/MAX149 10-bit data-acquisition systems
c omb ine a n 8-c ha nne l multip le xe r, hig h-b a nd wid th
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 sample to 133ksps.
Both devices’ analog inputs are software configurable for
unipolar/bipolar and single-ended/differential operation.
♦ 8-Channel Single-Ended or 4-Channel
Differential Inputs
♦ Single-Supply Operation: +2.7V to +5.25V
♦ Internal 2.5V Reference (MAX149)
♦ Low Power: 1.2mA (133ksps, 3V supply)
54µA (1ksps, 3V supply)
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 MAX148/
MAX149 use either the internal clock or an external serial-
interface clock to perform successive-approximation
analog-to-digital conversions.
1µA (power-down mode)
♦ SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/TMS320-Compatible
4-Wire Serial Interface
♦ Software-Configurable Unipolar or Bipolar Inputs
♦ 20-Pin DIP/SSOP Packages
The MAX149 has an internal 2.5V reference, while the
MAX148 requires an external reference. Both parts have
a re fe re nc e -b uffe r a mp lifie r with a ± 1.5% volta g e -
adjustment range.
Ord e rin g In fo rm a t io n
These devices provide a hard-wired SHDN pin and a
s oftwa re -s e le c ta b le p owe r-d own, a nd c a n b e p ro-
grammed to automatically shut down at the end of a con-
version. Accessing the serial interface automatically
powers up the MAX148/MAX149, and the quick turn-on
time allows them to be shut down between all conver-
sions. This technique can cut supply current to under
60µA at reduced sampling rates.

COM
Three-Level Shutdown Input. Pulling SHDN low shuts the MAX148/MAX149 down; otherwise, they are
fully operational. Pulling SHDN high puts the reference-buffer amplifier in internal compensation mode.
Letting SHDN float puts the reference-buffer amplifier in external compensation mode.

SHDN
Reference-Buffer Output/ADC Reference Input. Reference voltage for analog-to-digital conversion.
In internal reference mode (MAX149 only), the reference buffer provides a 2.500V nominal output,
externally adjustable at REFADJ. In external reference mode, disable the internal buffer by pulling

The MAX148/MAX149 a na log -to-d ig ita l c onve rte rs
(ADCs) use a successive-approximation conversion
technique and input track/hold (T/H) circuitry to convert
an analog signal to a 10-bit digital output. A flexible seri-
al interface provides easy interface to microprocessors
(µPs ). Fig ure 3 is a b loc k d ia g ra m of the MAX148/
MAX149.
The conversion interval begins with the input multiplexer
switching C from the positive input (IN+) to the
HOLD
negative input (IN-). In single-ended mode, IN- is simply
COM. This unbalances node ZERO at the comparator’s
input. The capacitive DAC adjusts during the remainder
of the conversion cycle to restore node ZERO to 0V
within the limits of 10-bit resolution. This action is equiv-

The T/H enters its tracking mode on the falling clock

shifted in. If the converter is set up for single-ended
inputs, IN- is connected to COM, and the converter
samples the “+” input. If the converter is set up for dif-

difference of |IN+ - IN-| is sampled. At the end of the
conversion, the positive input connects back to IN+,

To quickly evaluate the MAX148/MAX149’s analog perfor-
mance, use the circuit of Figure 5. The MAX148/MAX149
require a control byte to be written to DIN before each
conversion. Tying DIN to +3V feeds in control bytes of
$FF (HEX), which trigger single-ended unipolar conver-
sions on CH7 in external clock mode without powering
down between conversions. In external clock mode, the
SSTRB output pulses high for one clock period before
the most significant bit of the conversion result is shift-
ed out of DOUT. Varying the analog input to CH7 will
alter the sequence of bits from DOUT. A total of 15
clock cycles is required per conversion. All transitions
of the SSTRB and DOUT outputs occur on the falling
edge of SCLK.

SPI, and QSPI all transmit a byte and receive a byte at
the same time. Using the Typical Operating Circuit, the
simplest software interface requires only three 8-bit
transfers to perform a conversion (one 8-bit transfer to
configure the ADC, and two more 8-bit transfers to clock
out the conversion result). See Figure 20 for MAX148/
MAX149 QSPI connections.
Ho w t o S t a rt a Co n ve rs io n
Start a conversion by clocking a control byte into DIN.
With CS low, each rising edge on SCLK clocks a bit from
DIN into the MAX148/MAX149’s internal shift register.
After CS falls, the first arriving logic “1” bit defines the
control byte’s MSB. Until this first “start” bit arrives, any
number of logic “0” bits can be clocked into DIN with no
effect. Table 1 shows the control-byte format.

Simple Software Interface
Make sure the CPU’s serial interface runs in master
mode so the CPU generates the serial clock. Choose a
clock frequency from 100kHz to 2MHz.
Figure 6 shows the timing for this sequence. Bytes RB2
and RB3 contain the result of the conversion, padded
with one leading zero, two sub-LSB bits, and three trail-
ing zeros. The total conversion time is a function of the
serial-clock frequency and the amount of idle time
between 8-bit transfers. To avoid excessive T/H droop,
make sure the total conversion time does not exceed
120µs.
1) Set up the control byte for external clock mode and
call it TB1. TB1 should be of the format: 1XXXXX11
binary, where the Xs denote the particular channel
and conversion mode selected.
2) Use a general-purpose I/O line on the CPU to pull

and allows the conversion results to be read back at the
processor’s convenience, at any clock rate from 0MHz

and then goes high when the conversion is complete.
SSTRB is low for a maximum of 7.5µs (SHDN = FLOAT),
during which time SCLK should remain low for best
noise performance.
Pulling CS high prevents data from being clocked into
the MAX148/MAX149 and three-states DOUT, but it

An internal register stores data when the conversion is

In addition to its shutdown function, SHDN selects inter-

If CS is toggled before the current conversion is com-
plete, the next high bit clocked into DIN is recognized as
a start bit; the current conversion is terminated, and a
new one is started.
The fastest the MAX148/MAX149 can run with CS held
low between conversions is 15 clocks per conversion.
Figure 11a shows the serial-interface timing necessary to
perform a conversion every 15 SCLK cycles in external
clock mode. If CS is tied low and SCLK is continuous,
guarantee a start bit by first clocking in 16 zeros.

Internal compensation requires no external capacitor at
VREF and allows for the shortest power-up times. The
maximum clock rate is 2MHz in internal clock mode
and 400kHz in external clock mode.
Most microcontrollers (µCs) require that conversions
occur in multiples of 8 SCLK clocks; 16 clocks per con-
version is typically the fastest that a µC can drive the
MAX148/MAX149. Fig ure 11b s hows the s e ria l-
interface timing necessary to perform a conversion every
16 SCLK cycles in external clock mode.

You can save power by placing the converter in a low-
current shutdown state between conversions. Select full
power-down mode or fast power-down mode via bits 1
and 0 of the DIN control byte with SHDN high or floating
(Tables 1 and 5). In both software power-down modes,
the serial interface remains operational, but the ADC
does not convert. Pull SHDN low at any time to shut
down the converter completely. SHDN overrides bits 1
and 0 of the control byte.

lize, the internal reset time is 10µs, and no conversions
should be performed during this phase. SSTRB is high
on power-up and, if CS is low, the first logical 1 on DIN
is interpreted as a start bit. Until a conversion takes
place, DOUT shifts out zeros. (Also see Table 4.)
Full power-down mode turns off all chip functions that
draw quiescent current, reducing supply current to 2µA
(typ ). Fa s t p owe r-d own mod e turns off a ll c irc uitry

AVERAGE SUPPLY CURRENT

The first logical 1 on DIN is interpreted as a start bit
a nd p owe rs up the MAX148/MAX149. Following
the start bit, the data input word or control byte also
determines clock mode and power-down states. For
example, if the DIN word contains PD1 = 1, then the
c hip re ma ins p owe re d up . If PD0 = PD1 = 0, a
power-down resumes after one conversion.

Hardware Power-Down
Pulling SHDN low places the converter in hardware
power-down (Table 6). Unlike software power-down
mode, the conversion is not completed; it stops coin-
cidentally with SHDN being brought low. SHDN also
controls the clock frequency in internal clock mode.
Letting SHDN float sets the internal clock frequency to
1.8MHz. When returning to normal operation with SHDN

Pulling SHDN high sets internal clock frequency to
225kHz. This feature eases the settling-time requirement
for the reference voltage. With an external reference, the
MAX148/MAX149 can be considered fully powered up
within 2µs of actively pulling SHDN high.

The MAX148/MAX149 auto power-down modes can
save considerable power when operating at less than
maximum sample rates. Figures 13, 14a, and 14b show
the average supply current as a function of the sam-
pling rate. The following discussion illustrates the vari-
ous power-down sequences.

Figure 14a depicts the MAX149 power consumption for
one or eight channel conversions utilizing full power-
down mode and internal-reference compensation. A
0.01µF bypass capacitor at REFADJ forms an RC filter
with the internal 20kΩ reference resistor with a 0.2ms
time constant. To achieve full 10-bit accuracy, 8 time
c ons ta nts or 1.6ms a re re q uire d a fte r p owe r-up .
Waiting this 1.6ms in FASTPD mode instead of in full
power-up can reduce power consumption by a factor
of 10 or more. This is achieved by using the sequence
shown in Figure 15.

Software Power-Down
Software power-down is activated using bits PD1 and PD0
of the control byte. As shown in Table 5, PD1 and PD0
also specify the clock mode. When software shutdown is
asserted, the ADC operates in the last specified clock
mode until the conversion is complete. Then the ADC
powers down into a low quiescent-current state. In internal
clock mode, the interface remains active and conversion

Internal Reference (MAX149)
The MAX149’s full-scale range with the internal refer-
ence is 2.5V with unipolar inputs and ±1.25V with bipo-
lar inputs. The internal reference voltage is adjustable
to ±1.5% with the circuit in Figure 16.
In t e rn a l a n d Ex t e rn a l Re fe re n c e s
The MAX149 can be used with an internal or external
reference voltage, whereas an external reference is
required for the MAX148. An external reference can be
connected directly at VREF or at the REFADJ pin.
External Reference
With both the MAX149 and MAX148, an external refer-
ence can be placed at either the input (REFADJ) or the
output (VREF) of the internal reference-buffer amplifier.
The REFADJ input impedance is typically 20kΩ for the
MAX149, and higher than 100kΩ for the MAX148. At

MAX149’s internally trimmed 1.21V reference is buf-
fered with a 2.06 gain. The MAX148’s REFADJ pin is
also buffered with a 2.00 gain to scale an external 1.25V
reference at REFADJ to 2.5V at VREF.

During conversion, an external reference at VREF must
deliver up to 350µA DC load current and have 10Ω or
less output impedance. If the reference has a higher
output impedance or is noisy, bypass it close to the
VREF pin with a 4.7µF capacitor.

The external reference must have a temperature coeffi-

range.
Using the REFADJ input makes buffering the external

= 2.0MHz, CPOL = 0,
SCLK
CPHA = 0). This QSPI circuit can be programmed to do a
conversion on each of the eight channels. The result is
stored in memory without taxing the CPU, since QSPI
incorporates its own microsequencer.
3) An 8-bit word (1XXXXX11) should be written to the
MAX148/MAX149 to initiate a conversion and place
the device into external clock mode. Refer to Table
1 to select the proper XXXXX bit values for your
specific application.
The MAX148/MAX149 are QSPI compatible up to the
maximum external clock frequency of 2MHz.
4) The MAX148/MAX149’s SSTRB output is monitored
via the TMS320’s FSR input. A falling edge on the
SSTRB output indicates that the conversion is in
progress and data is ready to be received from the
MAX148/MAX149.

Figure 21 shows an application circuit to interface the
MAX148/MAX149 to the TMS320 in external clock mode.
The timing diagram for this interface circuit is shown in
Figure 22.
5) The TMS320 reads in one data bit on each of the
next 16 rising edges of SCLK. These data bits rep-
resent the 10 + 2-bit conversion result followed by
4 trailing bits, which should be ignored.
Use the following steps to initiate a conversion in the
MAX148/MAX149 and to read the results:
1) The TMS320 s hould b e c onfig ure d with CLKX
(transmit clock) as an active-high output clock and
CLKR (TMS320 receive clock) as an active-high
input clock. CLKX and CLKR on the TMS320 are
tied together with the MAX148/MAX149’s SCLK
input.
6) Pull CS high to disable the MAX148/MAX149 until
the next conversion is initiated.
