400ksps/300ksps, Single-Supply, Low-Power,
Serial 12-Bit ADCs with Internal Reference
General Description
The MAX1284/MAX1285 12-bit analog-to-digital con-
verters (ADCs) combine a high-bandwidth track/hold
(T/H), a serial interface with high conversion speed, an
internal +2.5V reference, and low power consumption.
The MAX1284 operates from a single +4.5V to +5.5V
supply. The MAX1285 operates from a single +2.7V to
+3.6V supply.
The 3-wire serial interface connects directly to
SPI™/QSPI™/ MICROWIRE™ devices without external
logic. The devices use an external serial-interface clock
to perform successive-approximation analog-to-digital
conversions.
Low power, ease of use, and small package size make
these converters ideal for remote-sensor and data-acqui-
sition applications or for other circuits with demanding
power consumption and space requirements. The
MAX1284/MAX1285 are available in 8-pin SO packages.
These devices are pin-compatible, higher-speed ver-
sions of the MAX1240/MAX1241. Refer to the respec-
tive data sheets for more information.

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.

Note 1:
Tested at V

.
Note 2:
Relative accuracy is the deviation of the analog value at any code from its theoretical value after the full-scale range has
been calibrated.
Note 3:
Internal reference, offset, and reference errors nulled.
Note 4:
Conversion time is defined as the number of clock cycles multiplied by the clock period; clock has 50% duty cycle.
Note 5:
External load should not change during conversion for specified accuracy. Guaranteed specification limit of 2mV/mA due to
production test limitations.
Note 6:
Electrical characteristics are guaranteed from V

DD(MAX)
. For operations beyond this range, see
Typical
Operating Characteristics.
