Power Supplies
AVDD and DVDD provide power to the MAX11359A. The
AVDD powers up the analog section, while the DVDD pow-
ers up the digital section. The power supply for both AVDD
and DVDD ranges from +1.8V to +3.6V. Both AVDD and
DVDD must be greater than +1.8V for device operation.
AVDD and DVDD can connect to the same power supply.
Bypass AVDD to AGND with a 10µF electrolytic capacitor
in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor, and bypass
DVDD to DGND with a 10µF electrolytic capacitor in paral-
lel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. For improved perfor-
mance, place the bypass capacitors as close to the device
as possible.
ADC Transfer Functions
Figures 20 and 21 provide the ADC transfer functions
for unipolar and bipolar mode. The digital output code
format is binary for unipolar mode and two’s comple-
ment for bipolar mode. Calculate 1 LSB using the fol-
lowing equations:
1 LSB (Unipolar Mode) = VREF/(Gain x 65,536)
1 LSB (Bipolar Mode) = ±2VREF/(Gain x 65,536)
where VREF equals the reference voltage at REF and
Gain equals the PGA gain.

Figure 24. DAC Bipolar Output Circuit
In unipolar mode, the output code ranges from 0 to
65,535 for inputs from zero to full-scale. In bipolar
mode, the output code ranges from -32,768 to +32,767
for inputs from negative full-scale to positive full-scale.
DAC Unipolar Output
For a unipolar output, the output voltages and the refer-
ence have the same polarity. Figure 22 shows the
unipolar output circuit of the MAX11359A, which is also
the typical operating circuit for the DAC. Table 22 lists
some unipolar input codes and their corresponding
output voltages.
For larger output swing, see Figure 23. This circuit
shows the output amplifiers configured with a closed-
loop gain of +2V/V to provide 0 to 2.5V full-scale range
with the 1.25V reference.
DAC Bipolar Output
The MAX11359A DAC output can be configured for
bipolar operation using the application circuit in

where N is the decimal value of the DAC’s binary input code.

sponding output voltages for Figure 24 assuming
