Single-Supply, Low-Power,
Serial 8-Bit ADCs
General Description
The MAX1106/MAX1107 low-power, 8-bit, single-channel,
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) feature an internal
track/hold (T/H), voltage reference, clock, and serial inter-
face. The MAX1106 is specified from +2.7V to +3.6V and
consumes only 96µA. The MAX1107 is specified from
+4.5V to +5.5V and consumes only 107µA. The analog
inputs are pin-configurable, allowing unipolar and single-
ended or differential operation.
The full-scale analog input range is determined by the
internal reference of +2.048V (MAX1106) or +4.096V
(MAX1107), or by an externally applied reference rang-
ing from 1V to V
DD
. The MAX1106/MAX1107 also feature
a pin-selectable power-down mode that reduces power
consumption to 0.5µA when the device is not in use. The
3-wire serial interface directly connects to SPI™, QSPI™,
and MICROWIRE™ devices without external logic.
Conversions up to 25ksps are performed using the inter-
nal clock.
The MAX1106/MAX1107 are available in a 10-pin µMAX
package with a footprint that is just 20% of an
8-pin plastic DIP.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
