Clocking with a CMOS Signal
A CMOS signal can be used to drive 32KIN if it is divid-
ed down. Figure 25 is an example circuit, which works
well.
Input Multiplexer
The mux inputs can range between AGND and AV_DD.
However, when the internal temperature sensor is
enabled, AIN1 and AIN2 cannot exceed 0.7V. This
necessitates additional circuitry to divide down the
input signal. See Figure 26 for an example circuit that
divides down backlight V_DD to work properly with the
AIN1 pin.
Optical Reflectometry Application with
Dual LED and Single Photodiode
Figure 27 illustrates the MAX11358B in a complete opti-
cal reflectometry application with two transmitting LEDs
and one receiving photodiode. The LEDs transmit light
at a specific wavelength onto the sample strip, and the
photodiode receives the reflections from the strip. Set
the DAC to provide appropriate bias currents for the
LEDs. Always keep the photodiodes reverse-biased or
zero-biased. SPDT1 and SPDT2 switch between the
two LEDs.
Electrochemical Sensor Operation
The MAX11358B family interface with electrochemical
sensors. The 10-bit DAC with the force-sense buffers
have the flexibility to connect to many different types of
sensors. An external precision resistor completes the
transimpedance amplifier configuration to convert the
current generated by the sensor to a voltage measure-
ment using the ADC. The induced error from this source
is negligible due to FBA’s extremely low input bias cur-
rent. Internally, the ADC can differentially measure
directly across the external transimpedance resistor,
RF, eliminating any errors due to voltages drifting over
time, temperature, or supply voltage.

Temperature Measurement with
Two Remote Sensors
Use two diode-connected 2N3904 transistors for exter-
nal temperature sensing in Figure 29. Select AIN1 and
AIN2 through the positive and negative mux, respec-
tively. For internal temperature sensor measurements,
set MUXP<3:0> to 0111, and set MUXN<3:0> to 0000.
The analog input signals feed through a PGA to the
ADC for conversion.
The MAX11358B integrated PWM is available for LCD
bias control, sensor-bias voltage trimming, buzzer drive,
and duty-cycled sleep-mode power-control schemes.
Figure 31 shows the MAX11358B performing LCD bias
control. A sensor-bias voltage trimming application is
shown in Figure 32. Figures 34 and 35 show the PWM
circuitry being used in a single-ended and differential
piezoelectric buzzer-driving application.
ADC Calibration
Internal to the MAX11358B, the ADC is 24 bits and is
always in bipolar mode. The OFFSET CAL and GAIN
CAL data is also 24 bits. The conversion to unipolar and
the gain are performed digitally. The default values for
the OFFSET CAL and GAIN CAL registers in the
MAX11358B are 00 0000h and 80 0000h, respectively.
The calibration works as follows:
ADC = (RAW - OFFSET) x Gain x PGA
where ADC is the conversion result in the DATA register,
RAW is the output of the decimation filter internal to the
MAX11358B, OFFSET is the value stored in the OFFSET
CAL register, Gain is the value stored in the GAIN CAL
register, and PGA is the selected PGA gain found in the
ADC register as GAIN<1:0>. In unipolar mode, all nega-
tive values return a zero result and an additional gain of 2
is added.
