The MAX113/MAX117 are microprocessor-compatible,
8-bit, 4-channel and 8-channel analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). They operate from a single +3V supply
and use a half-flash technique to achieve a 1.8µs conversion time (400ksps). A power-down pin (PWRDN)
reduces current consumption to 1µA typical. The
devices return from power-down mode to normal operating mode in less than 900ns, allowing large supplycurrent reductions in burst-mode applications. (In burst
mode, the ADC wakes up from a low-power state at
specified intervals to sample the analog input signals.)
Both converters include a track/hold, enabling the ADC
to digitize fast analog signals.
____________________________Features
♦ +3.0V to +3.6V Single-Supply Operation
♦ 4 (MAX113) or 8 (MAX117) Analog Input Channels
♦ Low Power: 1.5mA (operating mode)
1µA (power-down mode)
♦ Total Unadjusted Error ≤ 1LSB
♦ Fast Conversion Time: 1.8µs per Channel
♦ No External Clock Required
♦ Internal Track/Hold
♦ Ratiometric Reference Inputs
♦ Internally Connected 8th Channel Monitors
Reference Voltage (MAX117)
Microprocessor (µP) interfaces are simplified because
the ADC can appear as a memory location or I/O port
without external interface logic. The data outputs use
latched, three-state buffer circuitry for direct connection
to an 8-bit parallel µP data bus or system input port.
The MAX113/MAX117 input/reference configuration
enables ratiometric operation.
The 4-channel MAX113 is available in a 24-pin DIP or
SSOP. The 8-channel MAX117 is available in a 28-pin
DIP or SSOP. For +5V applications, refer to the
MAX114/MAX118 data sheet.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
