The MAX1246AEEE is an integrated circuit (IC) component specifically designed for high-precision analog-to-digital conversion. It offers a wide array of features suitable for various applications.
This IC belongs to the MAX1246 family, and it possesses a 12-bit resolution, ensuring accurate conversion of analog signals into digital form. It operates with a single-ended input voltage range of 0V to VREF, where VREF can range from 2.5V to 5V, providing flexibility in different voltage level environments.
One of the key features of the MAX1246AEEE is its high sampling rate, which can reach up to 200 kilosamples per second (ksps). This fast conversion time enables quick capture of even rapidly changing signals, making it ideal for applications requiring near real-time measurements.
Additionally, this IC component includes a built-in low-noise, low-drift internal reference voltage, which eliminates the need for an external reference voltage source. This feature simplifies the design process and saves board space without compromising the performance of the ADC.
The MAX1246AEEE incorporates a successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture, leading to high accuracy and linearity of the converted digital data. Its excellent integral nonlinearity (INL) and differential nonlinearity (DNL) specifications, usually within ±1 LSB, ensures reliable and precise conversion.
Moreover, this IC supports both parallel and serial digital interfaces, offering versatility in system integration
