Multichannel, 14-Bit, 200ksps Analog-to-Digital
Converters
General Description
The MAX1067/MAX1068 low-power, multichannel, 14-
bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) feature a suc-
cessive-approximation ADC, integrated +4.096V
reference, a reference buffer, an internal oscillator,
automatic power-down, and a high-speed SPI™/
QSPI™/MICROWIRE™-compatible interface. The
MAX1067/MAX1068 operate with a single +5V analog
supply and feature a separate digital supply, allowing
direct interfacing with +2.7V to +5.5V digital logic.
The MAX1067/MAX1068 consume only 3.6mA (AV
DD
=
DV
DD
= +5V) at 200ksps when using an external refer-
ence. AutoShutdown™ reduces the supply current to
185µA at 10ksps and to less than 10µA at reduced sam-
pling rates.
The MAX1067 includes a 4-channel input multiplexer, and
the MAX1068 accepts up to eight analog inputs.
In addition, digital signal processor (DSP)-initiated con-
versions are simplified with the DSP frame-sync input and
output featured in the MAX1068. The MAX1068 includes a
data-bit transfer input to select between 8-bit-wide or 16-
bit-wide data-transfer modes. Both devices feature a scan
mode that converts each channel sequentially or one
channel continuously.
Excellent dynamic performance and low power, com-
bined with ease of use and an integrated reference,
make the MAX1067/MAX1068 ideal for control and data-
acquisition operations or for other applications with
demanding power consumption and space require-
ments. The MAX1067 is available in a 16-pin QSOP
package, and the MAX1068 is available in a 24-pin
QSOP package. Both devices are guaranteed over the
commercial (0°C to +70°C) and extended (-40°C to
+85°C) temperature ranges. Use the MAX1168 evalua-
tion kit to evaluate the MAX1068.

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.
