GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MAX1270/MAX1271 are multirange, 12-bit dataacquisition systems (DAS) that require only a single +5V supply for operation, yet accept signals at their analog inputs that can span above the power-supply rail and below ground. These systems provide eight analog input channels that are independently software programmable for a variety of ranges: ±10V, ±5V, 0 to +10V, 0 to +5V for In addition, these converters are fault protected to ±16.5V; a fault condition on any channel will not affect the conversion result of the selected channel. Other features include a 5MHz bandwidth track/hold, softwareselectab
