REFERENCE MODE
Internal reference mode. VREF is internally generated to be 0.512V. Bypass REFP, REFN, and COM
each with a 0.33µF capacitor.
Buffered external reference mode. An external 1.024V ±10% reference voltage is applied to
REFIN. VREF is internally generated to be VREFIN/2. Bypass REFP, REFN, and COM each with a
0.33µF capacitor. Bypass REFIN to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor.
<0.3V
Unbuffered external reference mode. REFP, REFN, and COM are driven by external reference
sources. VREF is the difference between the externally applied VREFP and VREFN. Bypass REFP,
REFN, and COM each with a 0.33µF capacitor.
values originally held on C2a and C2b. These values
are then presented to the first stage quantizers and iso-
late the pipelines from the fast-changing inputs. The
wide input bandwidth T/H amplifiers allow the MAX1191
to track and sample/hold analog inputs of high frequen-
cies (>Nyquist). Both ADC inputs (INA+, INB+, INA-,
and INB-) can be driven either differentially or single
ended. Match the impedance of INA+ and INA-, as well
as INB+ and INB-, and set the common-mode voltage
to midsupply (VDD/2) for optimum performance.
Analog Inputs and Reference
Configurations
The MAX1191 full-scale analog input range is ±VREF
with a common-mode input range of VDD/2 ±0.2V. VREF
is the difference between VREFP and VREFN. The
MAX1191 provides three modes of reference operation.
The voltage at REFIN (VREFIN) sets the reference oper-
ation mode (Table 1).
In internal reference mode, connect REFIN to VDD or
leave REFIN unconnected. VREF is internally generated
to be 0.512V ±3%. COM, REFP, and REFN are low-
impedance outputs with VCOM = VDD/2, VREFP = VDD/2
+ VREF/2, and VREFN = VDD/2 - VREF/2. Bypass REFP,
REFN, and COM each with a 0.33µF capacitor.
In buffered external reference mode, apply a 1.024V
±10% at REFIN. In this mode, COM, REFP, and REFN
are low-impedance outputs with VCOM = VDD/2, VREFP =
VDD/2 + VREFIN/4, and VREFN = VDD/2 - VREFIN/4.
Bypass REFP, REFN, and COM each with a 0.33µF
capacitor. Bypass REFIN to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor.
In unbuffered external reference mode, connect REFIN
to GND. This deactivates the on-chip reference buffers
for COM, REFP, and REFN. With their buffers shut
down, these nodes become high-impedance inputs
(Figure 4) and can be driven through separate, external
reference sources. Drive VCOM to VDD/2 ±10%, drive

Clock Input (CLK)
CLK accepts a CMOS-compatible signal level. Since
the interstage conversion of the device depends on the
repeatability of the rising and falling edges of the exter-
nal clock, use a clock with low jitter and fast rise and
fall times (<2ns). In particular, sampling occurs on the
rising edge of the clock signal, requiring this edge to
