The MAX186/MAX188 are 12-bit data-acquisition sys-
tems that combine an 8-channel multiplexer, high-band-
width track/hold, and serial interface together with high
conversion speed and ultra-low power consumption.
The devices operate with a single +5V supply or dual
±5V supplies. The analog inputs are software config-
urable for unipolar/bipolar and single-ended/differential
operation.
♦ 8-Channel Single-Ended or 4-Channel
Differential Inputs
♦ Single +5V or ±5V Operation
♦ Low Power: 1.5mA (operating mode)
2µA (power-down mode)
♦ Internal Track/Hold, 133kHz Sampling Rate
♦ Internal 4.096V Reference (MAX186)
♦ SPI-, QSPI-, Microwire-, TMS320-Compatible
The 4-wire serial interface directly connects to SPI™,
QSPI™ and Microwire™ devices without external logic. A
serial strobe output allows direct connection to TMS320
family digital signal processors. The MAX186/MAX188
use either the internal clock or an external serial-interface
clock to perform successive-approximation A/D conver-
sions. The serial interface can operate beyond 4MHz
when the internal clock is used.
4-Wire Serial Interface
♦ Software-Configurable Unipolar or Bipolar Inputs
♦ 20-Pin DIP, SO, SSOP Packages
♦ Evaluation Kit Available

parator is illustrated in the Equivalent Input Circuit
(Fig ure 4). In s ing le-e nd e d mod e , IN+ is inte rna lly
switched to CH0-CH7 and IN- is switched to AGND. In
differential mode, IN+ and IN- are selected from pairs
of CH0/CH1, CH2/CH3, CH4/CH5 a nd CH6/CH7.
Configure the channels with Table 3 and Table 4.

Figure 4. Equivalent Input Circuit
In differential mode, IN- and IN+ are internally switched
to either one of the analog inputs. This configuration is
pseudo-differential to the effect that only the signal at
IN+ is sampled. The return side (IN-) must remain sta-
b le within ± 0.5LSB (± 0.1LSB for b e s t re s ults ) with
respect to AGND during a conversion. Accomplish this
by connecting a 0.1µF capacitor from AIN- (the select-
ed analog input, respectively) to AGND.
single-ended inputs, IN- is connected to AGND, and
the converter samples the “+” input. If the converter is
set up for differential inputs, IN- connects to the “-”
input, and the difference of |IN+ - IN-| is sampled. At
the end of the conversion, the positive input connects
back to IN+, and CHOLD charges to the input signal.
During the acquisition interval, the channel selected as
the positive input (IN+) charges capacitor CHOLD. The
acquisition interval spans three SCLK cycles and ends
on the falling SCLK edge after the last bit of the input
control word has been entered. At the end of the acqui-
sition interval, the T/H switch opens, retaining charge
on CHOLD as a sample of the signal at IN+.
The time required for the T/H to acquire an input signal
is a function of how quickly its input capacitance is
charged. If the input signal’s source impedance is high,
the acquisition time lengthens and more time must be
allowed between conversions. Acquisition time is cal-
culated by:
tAZ = 9 x (RS + RIN) x 16pF,
The conversion interval begins with the input multiplex-
er switching CHOLD from the positive input (IN+) to the
negative input (IN-). In single-ended mode, IN- is sim-
ply AGND. This unbalances node ZERO at the input of
the comparator. The capacitive DAC adjusts during the
re ma ind e r of the c onve rs ion c yc le to re s tore nod e
ZERO to 0V within the limits of 12-bit resolution. This
action is equivalent to transferring a charge of 16pF x
[(VIN+) - (VIN-)] from CHOLD to the binary-weighted
capacitive DAC, which in turn forms a digital represen-
tation of the analog input signal.
where RIN = 5kΩ, RS = the source impedance of the
input signal, and tAZ is never less than 1.5µs. Note that
source impedances below 5kΩ do not significantly
affect the AC performance of the ADC. Higher source
impedances can be used if an input capacitor is con-
nected to the analog inputs, as shown in Figure 5. Note
that the input capacitor forms an RC filter with the input
source impedance, limiting the ADC’s signal bandwidth.
In p u t Ba n d w id t h
The ADC’s inp ut tra c king c irc uitry ha s a 4.5MHz
small-signal bandwidth, so it is possible to digitize
high-speed transient events and measure periodic sig-
nals with bandwidths exceeding the ADC’s sampling

clock mode without powering down between conver-

of the 12-bit conversion result comes out of DOUT.
Va rying the a na log inp ut to CH7 s hould a lte r the
sequence of bits from DOUT. A total of 15 clock cycles
is required per conversion. All transitions of the SSTRB
and DOUT outputs occur on the falling edge of SCLK.

Microwire and SPI devices. For SPI, select the correct
clock polarity and sampling edge in the SPI control reg-
isters: set CPOL = 0 and CPHA = 0. Microwire and SPI
both transmit a byte and receive a byte at the same
time. Using the Typical Operating Circuit, the simplest
software interface requires only three 8-bit transfers to
perform a conversion (one 8-bit transfer to configure
the ADC, and two more 8-bit transfers to clock out the
12-bit conversion result).

Example: Simple Software Interface
A conversion is started on the MAX186/MAX188 by
clocking a control byte into DIN. Each rising edge on
SCLK, with CS low, c loc ks a b it from DIN into the
MAX186/MAX188’s internal shift register. After CS falls,
the first arriving logic “1” bit defines the MSB of the
control byte. Until this first “start” bit arrives, any num-
ber of logic “0” bits can be clocked into DIN with no
effect. Table 2 shows the control-byte format.
Make sure the CPU’s serial interface runs in master
mode so the CPU generates the serial clock. Choose a
clock frequency from 100kHz to 2MHz.
1) Set up the control byte for external clock mode, call
it TB1. TB1 should be of the format: 1XXXXX11
Binary, where the Xs denote the particular channel
and conversion-mode selected.

The total conversion time is a function of the serial

does not exceed 120µs, to avoid excessive T/H droop.

each of the next 12 SCLK falling edges (see Figure 6).
SSTRB and DOUT go into a high-impedance state when

output a logic low. Figure 8 shows the SSTRB timing in

The MAX186/MAX188 may use either an external serial
c loc k or the inte rna l c loc k to p e rform the
successive-approximation conversion. In both clock
modes, the external clock shifts data in and out of the
MAX186/MAX188. The T/H acquires the input signal as
the last three bits of the control byte are clocked into
DIN. Bits PD1 and PD0 of the control byte program the
c loc k mod e . Figure s 7 through 10 show the timing
characteristics common to both modes.
The conversion must complete in some minimum time, or
else droop on the sample -and-hold capacitors may
degrade conversion results. Use internal clock mode if the
clock period exceeds 10µs, or if serial-clock interruptions
could cause the conversion interval to exceed 120µs.

will produce the MSB of the conversion at DOUT, fol-
lowed by the remaining bits in MSB-first format (see
Figure 9). CS does not need to be held low once a con-
version is started. Pulling CS high prevents data from
being clocked into the MAX186/MAX188 and three-
states DOUT, but it does not adversely effect an internal
clock-mode conversion already in progress. When inter-
nal clock mode is selected, SSTRB does not go into a
high-impedance state when CS goes high.
In internal clock mode, the MAX186/MAX188 generate
their own conversion clock internally. This frees the
microprocessor from the burden of running the SAR con-
version clock, and allows the conversion results to be
read back at the processor’s convenience, at any clock
rate from zero to typically 10MHz. SSTRB goes low at the
start of the conversion and then goes high when the con-
version is complete. SSTRB will be low for a maximum of
10µs, during which time SCLK should remain low for best
noise performance. An internal register stores data when
the conversion is in progress. SCLK clocks the data out
at this register at any time after the conversion is com-
plete. After SSTRB goes high, the next falling clock edge
Figure 10 shows the SSTRB timing in internal clock
mode. In internal clock mode, data can be shifted in and
out of the MAX186/MAX188 at clock rates exceeding
4.0MHz, provided that the minimum acquisition time, tAZ
,
is kept above 1.5µs.

The falling edge of CS does not start a conversion on the
MAX186/MAX188. The first logic high clocked into DIN is
interpreted as a start bit and defines the first bit of the
control byte. A conversion starts on the falling edge of
SCLK, after the eighth bit of the control byte (the PD0 bit)
is clocked into DIN. The start bit is defined as:
P o w e r-On Re s e t
When power is first applied and if SHDN is not pulled
low, internal power-on reset circuitry will activate the
MAX186/MAX188 in internal clock mode, ready to con-
vert with SSTRB = high. After the power supplies have
been stabilized, the internal reset time is 100µs and no
conversions should be performed during this phase.
SSTRB is high on power-up and, if CS is low, the first
logical 1 on DIN will be interpreted as a start bit. Until a
conversion takes place, DOUT will shift out zeros.
The first high bit clocked into DIN with CS low any-
time the converter is idle, e.g. after VCC is applied.
OR
The first high bit clocked into DIN after bit 5 of a
conversion in progress is clocked onto the DOUT pin.
Re fe re n c e -Bu ffe r Co m p e n s a t io n
In addition to its shutdown function, the SHDN pin also
selects internal or external compensation. The compen-
sation affects both power-up time and maximum conver-
sion speed. Compensated or not, the minimum clock
rate is 100kHz due to droop on the sample-and-hold.
If a falling edge on CS forces a start bit before bit 5
(B5) becomes available, then the current conversion
will be terminated and a new one started. Thus, the
fastest the MAX186/MAX188 can run is 15 clocks per
conversion. Figure 11a shows the serial-interface timing
ne c e ssa ry to p e rform a c onve rsion e ve ry 15 SCLK
cycles in external clock mode. If CS is low and SCLK is
continuous, guarantee a start bit by first clocking in 16
zeros.
To select external compensation, float SHDN. See the
Typical Operating Circuit, which uses a 4.7µF capacitor at
VREF. A value of 4.7µF or greater ensures stability and
allows operation of the converter at the full clock speed of
2MHz. External compensation increases power-up time (see
the Choosing Power-Down Mode section, and Table 5).
Most microcontrollers require that conversions occur in
multiples of 8 SCLK clocks; 16 clocks per conversion
will typically be the fastest that a microcontroller can
d rive the MAX186/MAX188. Fig ure 11b s hows the
serial-interface timing necessary to perform a conver-
sion every 16 SCLK cycles in external clock mode.
Internal compensation requires no external capacitor at
VREF, and is selected by pulling SHDN high. Internal com-
pensation allows for shortest power-up times, but is only
available using an external clock and reduces the maxi-
mum clock rate to 400kHz.

Choosing Power-Down Mode
You c a n s a ve p owe r b y p la c ing the c onve rte r in a
low-c urre nt s hutd own s ta te b e twe e n c onve rs ions .
Select full power-down or fast power-down mode via
bits 7 and 8 of the DIN control byte with SHDN high or
floating (see Tables 2 and 6). Pull SHDN low at any time
to shut down the converter completely. SHDN overrides
bits 7 and 8 of DIN word (see Table 7).
Figures 12a and 12b illustrate the various power-down
sequences in both external and internal clock modes.
Software Power-Down
Software power-down is activated using bits PD1 and
PD0 of the control byte. As shown in Table 6, PD1 and
PD0 also specify the clock mode. When software shut-
down is asserted, the ADC will continue to operate in
the last specified clock mode until the conversion is
complete. Then the ADC powers down into a low quies-
cent-current state. In internal clock mode, the interface
remains active and conversion results may be clocked
out while the MAX186/MAX188 have already entered a
software power-down.
Full power-down mode turns off all chip functions that draw
quiescent current, reducing IDD and ISS typically to 2µA.
Fast power-down mode turns off all circuitry except the
bandgap reference. With the fast power-down mode, the
supply current is 30µA. Power-up time can be shortened
to 5µs in internal compensation mode.
In both software shutdown modes, the serial interface
remains operational, however, the ADC will not convert.
Table 5 illustrates how the choice of reference-buffer
c omp e ns a tion a nd p owe r-d own mod e a ffe c ts b oth
power-up delay and maximum sample rate.
The first logical 1 on DIN will be interpreted as a start
bit, and powers up the MAX186/MAX188. Following the
start bit, the data input word or control byte also deter-
mines clock and power-down modes. For example, if
the DIN word c onta ins PD1 = 1, the n the c hip will
remain powered up. If PD1 = 0, a power-down will
resume after one conversion.
In external compensation mode, the power-up time is
20ms with a 4.7µF compensation capacitor (200ms with
a 33µF capacitor) when the capacitor is fully discharged.
In fast power-down, you can eliminate start-up time by

The SHDN p in p la c e s the c onve rte r into the full
power-down mode. Unlike with the software shut-down
modes, conversion is not completed. It stops coinci-
dentally with SHDN being brought low. There is no
power-up delay if an external reference is used and is
not shut down. The SHDN pin also selects internal or
external reference compensation (see Table 7).
The following examples illustrate two different power-down
sequences. Other combinations of clock rates, compen-
sation modes, and power-down modes may give lowest
power consumption in other applications.
Figure 14a depicts the MAX186 power consumption for
one or e ig ht c ha nne l c onve rs ions utilizing full
power-down mode and internal reference compensation.
A 0.01µF bypass capacitor at REFADJ forms an RC filter
with the internal 20kΩ reference resistor with a 0.2ms
time constant. To achieve full 12-bit accuracy, 10 time
constants or 2ms are required after power-up. Waiting
2ms in FASTPD mode instead of full power-up will reduce
the power consumption by a factor of 10 or more. This is
achieved by using the sequence shown in Figure 13.

The MAX186/MAX188 auto power-down modes can
save considerable power when operating at less than

Fig ure 14b s hows the p owe r c ons ump tion with
external-reference compensation in fast power-down,
with one and eight channels converted. The external
4.7µF compensation requires a 50µs wait after power-up,
accomplished by 75 idle clocks after a dummy conver-
sion. This circuit combines fast multi-channel conversion
with lowe s t p owe r c ons ump tion p os s ib le . Full
power-down mode may provide increased power sav-
ings in applications where the MAX186/MAX188 are
inactive for long periods of time, but where intermittent
bursts of high-speed conversions are required.

TIME IN SHUTDOWN (sec)
The MAX186 can be used with an internal or external
reference, whereas an external reference is required for
the MAX188. Diode D1 shown in the Typical Operating
Circuit ensures correct start-up. Any standard signal
diode can be used. For both parts, an external refer-
ence can either be connected directly at the VREF ter-
minal or at the REFADJ pin.
Figure 14c. Typical Power-Up Delay vs. Time in Shutdown
External Reference
With both the MAX186 and MAX188, an external refer-
ence can be placed at either the input (REFADJ) or the
outp ut (VREF) of the inte rna l b uffe r a mp lifie r. The
REFADJ inp ut imp e d a nc e is typ ic a lly 20kΩ for the
MAX186 and higher than 100kΩ for the MAX188, where
the internal reference is omitted. At VREF, the input
imp e d a nc e is a minimum of 12kΩ for DC c urre nts .
During conversion, an external reference at VREF must
be able to deliver up to 350µA DC load current and have
an output impedance of 10Ω or less. If the reference has
higher output impedance or is noisy, bypass it close to
the VREF pin with a 4.7µF capacitor.
An internal buffer is designed to provide 4.096V at
VREF for b oth the MAX186 a nd MAX188. The
MAX186’s inte rna lly trimme d 2.46V re fe re nc e is
buffered with a gain of 1.678. The MAX188's buffer is
trimmed with a buffer gain of 1.638 to scale an external
2.5V reference at REFADJ to 4.096V at VREF.
MAX186 Internal Reference
The full-scale range of the MAX186 with internal reference
is 4.096V with unipolar inputs, and ±2.048V with bipolar
inputs. The internal reference voltage is adjustable to
±1.5% with the Reference-Adjust Circuit of Figure 17.

Wire-wrap boards are not recommended. Board layout
should ensure that digital and analog signal lines are
separated from each other. Do not run analog and digi-
tal (especially clock) lines parallel to one another, or
digital lines underneath the ADC package.

affect the high-speed comparator in the ADC. Bypass

The MAX186/MAX188 can interface with QSPI at high
throughput rates using the circuit in Figure 19. This
QSPI circuit can be programmed to do a conversion on
each of the eight channels. The result is stored in mem-
ory without taxing the CPU since QSPI incorporates its
own micro-sequencer. Figure 19 depicts the MAX186,
but the same circuit could be used with the MAX188 by
adding an external reference to VREF and connecting

Figure 21, QSPI Assembly-Code Timing, shows the tim-

first byte clocked into the MAX186/MAX188 is the control

and clock out the results of the CH7 conversion.

TMS320C3x to MAX186 Interface
Figure 22 shows an application circuit to interface the

1) The TMS320 should be configured with CLKX (trans-
mit clock) as an active-high output clock and CLKR
(TMS320 receive clock) as an active-high input clock.
CLKX and CLKR of the TMS320 are tied together with
the SCLK input of the MAX186/MAX188.

2) The MAX186/MAX188 CS is driven low by the XF_
I/O port of the TMS320 to enable data to be clocked
into DIN of the MAX186/MAX188.
Figure 22. MAX186/MAX188 to TMS320 Serial Interface
3) An 8-bit word (1XXXXX11) should be written to the
MAX186/MAX188 to initiate a conversion and place
the device into external clock mode. Refer to Table
2 to select the proper XXXXX bit values for your spe-
cific application.
5) The TMS320 reads in one data bit on each of the
next 16 rising edges of SCLK. These data bits rep-
resent the 12-bit conversion result followed by four
trailing bits, which should be ignored.
4) The SSTRB output of the MAX186/MAX188 is moni-
tored via the FSR input of the TMS320. A falling
edge on the SSTRB output indicates that the conver-
sion is in progress and data is ready to be received
from the MAX186/MAX188.
6) Pull CS high to disable the MAX186/MAX188 until
the next conversion is initiated.
