Converters
General Description
The MAX1167/MAX1168 low-power, multichannel, 16-
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
MAX1167/MAX1168 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 MAX1167/MAX1168 consume only 3.6mA (AV
DD
=
DV
DD
= +5V) at 200ksps when using an external reference.
AutoShutdown™ reduces the supply current to 185µA at
10ksps and to less than 10µA at reduced sampling rates.
The MAX1167 includes a 4-channel input multiplexer, and
the MAX1168 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 MAX1168. The MAX1168 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 MAX1167/MAX1168 ideal for control and data-acqui-
sition operations or for other applications with demanding
power consumption and space requirements. The
MAX1167 is available in a 16-pin QSOP package and the
MAX1168 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 evaluation kit to evaluate the
MAX1168.

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.
