The MAX1246AEEE+ is a high-performance, low-power, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) integrated circuit (IC) component. It is designed for various industrial and medical applications where accurate and fast conversion of analog signals into digital data is required.
One of the key features of the MAX1246AEEE+ is its high resolution, providing 12-bit conversion capability. This allows for precise measurement and digitization of analog signals. The IC utilizes a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture, which ensures reliable and accurate conversions.
With a maximum sampling rate of 333 kilosamples per second (ksps), the MAX1246AEEE+ can capture and convert analog signals at a rapid pace. This high-speed operation makes it suitable for applications that require real-time or time-sensitive data acquisition.
The IC offers a wide input voltage range, allowing it to accept analog signals from various sources. It supports single-ended input configurations and provides a programmable input range of ±VREF, where VREF represents the supply voltage. This flexibility makes the MAX1246AEEE+ compatible with different sensor types and signal levels.
Furthermore, the MAX1246AEEE+ incorporates a low-level noise performance, achieving a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of up to 72 decibels (dB). This helps maintain the integrity of the converted digital data by minimizing the impact of noise interference during the conversion process
