Detailed Description
Converter Operation
The MAX1179/MAX1187/MAX1189 use a successive-
approximation (SAR) conversion technique with an
inherent track-and-hold (T/H) stage to convert an ana-
log input into a 16-bit digital output. Parallel outputs
provide a high-speed interface to microprocessors
(µPs). The Functional Diagram at the end of the data
sheet shows a simplified internal architecture of the
MAX1179/MAX1187/MAX1189. Figure 3 shows a typical
application circuit for the MAX1179/MAX1187/MAX1189.
Analog Input
Input Scaler
The MAX1179/MAX1187/MAX1189 have an input scaler
which allows conversion of true bipolar input voltages
and input voltages greater than the power supply, while
operating from a single +5V analog supply. The input
scaler attenuates and shifts the analog input to match
the input range of the internal DAC. The MAX1179 input
voltage range is ±5V, while the MAX1189 input voltage

range is ±10V. The MAX1187 has a unipolar input volt-
age range of 0 to +10V. Figure 4 shows the equivalent
input circuit of the MAX1179/MAX1187/MAX1189. This
circuit limits the current going into or out of AIN to less
than 1.8mA.
