+2.7V, Low-Power, 12-Bit Serial ADCs in 8-Pin SO
MAX1240/MAX1241
__________________General Description
The MAX1240/MAX1241 low-power, 12-bit analog-todigital converters (ADCs) are available in 8-pin packages. The MAX1240 operates with a single +2.7V to +3.6V supply, and the MAX1241 operates with a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply. Both devices feature a 7.5µs successive-approximation ADC, a fast track/hold (1.5µs), an on-chip clock, and a high-speed, 3-wire serial interface.
Power consumption is only 37mW (VDD = 3V) at the 73ksps maximum sampling speed. A 2µA shutdown mode reduces power at slower throughput rates.
The MAX1240 has an internal 2.5V reference, while the MAX1241 requires an external reference.
