The MAX1219 offers an additional set of differential out-
put pairs (ORAP/N and ORBP/N) to flag out-of-range
conditions for each channel, where out-of-range is
above positive or below negative full scale. An out-of-
range condition on each channel is identified with ORAP
or ORBP (ORAN or ORBN) transitioning high (low).
Note: Although a differential LVDS output architecture
reduces single-ended transients to the supply and
ground planes, capacitive loading on the digital out-
puts should still be kept as low as possible. Using
LVDS buffers on the digital outputs of the ADC when
driving larger loads improves overall performance and
reduces system-timing constraints.
Applications Information
FSR Adjustments Using the Internal
Bandgap Reference
The MAX1219 supports a 10% (±5%) full-scale adjust-
ment range on each channel. Add an external resistor
ranging from 13kΩ to 1MΩ between the reference
adjust input of the channel (REFADJA, REFADJB) and
AGND to decrease the full-scale range of the channel.
Adding a variable resistor, potentiometer, or predeter-
mined resistor value between the reference adjust input
of a channel (REFADJA, REFADJB) and its respective
reference input/output (REFA, REFB) increases the FSR
of the channel. Figure 6a shows the two possible con-
figurations and their impact on the overall full-scale
range adjustment of the MAX1219. The FSR for each
channel can be set to any value in the allowed range
independent of the FSR of the other channel. Do not
use resistor values of less than 13kΩ to avoid instability
of the internal gain regulation loop for the bandgap ref-
erence. See Figure 6b for the resulting FSR for a series
of resistor values.
Differential, AC-Coupled, LVPECL-
Compatible Clock Input
The MAX1219 dynamic performance depends on the
use of a very clean clock source. The phase noise floor
of the clock source has a negative impact on the SNR
performance. Spurious signals on the clock signal
source also affect the ADC’s dynamic range. The pre-
ferred method of clocking the MAX1219 is differentially
with LVDS- or LVPECL-compatible input levels. The fast
data transition rates of these logic families minimize the
clock input circuitry’s transition uncertainty improving
