(LSB) values. Output coding is two-complement binary
with 1LSB = 2.44mV for the MAX115 and
1LSB = 1.22mV for the MAX116.
Output Demultiplexer
An output demultiplexer circuit is useful for isolating
data from one channel in a four-channel conversion
sequence. Figure 9’s circuit uses the external 16MHz
clock and the INT signal to generate four RD pulses
and a latch clock to save data from the desired chan-
nel. CS must be low during the four RD pulses. The
channel is selected with the binary coding of two
switches. A 16-bit 16373 latch simplifies layout.
Motor-Control Applications
Vector motor control requires monitoring of the individ-
ual phase currents. In their most basic application, the
MAX115/MAX116 simultaneously sample two currents
(CH1A and CH2A, Figure 10) and preserve the neces-
sary relative phase information. Only two of the three
phase currents have to be digitized because the third
component can be mathematically derived with a coor-
dinate transformation.
The circuit of Figure 10 shows a typical vector motor-
control application using all available inputs of the
MAX115/MAX116. CH1A and CH2A are connected
to two isolated Hall-effect current sensors and are a
