then presented to the first-stage quantizers and isolate
the pipelines from the fast-changing inputs. Analog
inputs, IN_P to IN_N, are driven differentially. For differ-
ential inputs, balance the input impedance of IN_P and
IN_N for optimum performance.
Reference Configurations (REFIO,
REFADJ, REFP, and REFN)
The MAX1438B provides an internal 1.24V bandgap
reference or can be driven with an external reference
voltage. The full-scale analog differential input range is
±FSR. FSR (full-scale range) is given by the following
equation:
FSR = ^{(0.700 × VREFIO)}
1.24V
where V_REFIO is the voltage at REFIO, generated inter-
nally or externally. For a V_REFIO = 1.24V, the full-scale
input range is ±700mV (1.4V_P-P).
Internal Reference Mode
Connect REFADJ to GND to use the internal bandgap
reference directly. The internal bandgap reference gen-
erates V_REFIO to be 1.24V with a 120ppm/°C tempera-
ture coefficient in internal reference mode. Connect an
external ≥ 0.1µF bypass capacitor from REFIO to GND
for stability. REFIO sources up to 200µA and sinks up to
200µA for external circuits, and REFIO has a 75mV/mA
load regulation. Putting the MAX1438B into standby
mode turns off all circuitry except the reference circuit,
allowing the converter to power up faster when the ADC
exits standby with a high-to-low transitional signal on
STBY. The internal circuits of the MAX1438B require
200µs to power up and settle when the converter exits
standby mode.
To compensate for gain errors or to decrease or
increase the ADC’s FSR, add an external resistor
between REFADJ and GND or REFADJ and REFIO.
This adjusts the internal reference value of the
MAX1438B by up to ±5% of its nominal value. See the
Full-Scale Range Adjustments Using the Internal
Reference section.
