24-Bit, 4-Channel, Simultaneous-Sampling,
Cascadable, Sigma-Delta ADC
MAX140
General Description
Features
♦ Four Fully Differential Simultaneously Sampled
The MAX11040 is a 24-bit, 4-channel, simultaneous-
sampling, sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter
(ADC). The device allows simultaneous sampling of as
many as 32 channels using a built-in cascade feature
to synchronize as many as eight devices. The serial
interface of the MAX11040 allows reading data from all
the cascaded devices using a single command. Four
modulators simultaneously convert each fully differen-
tial analog input with a programmable data output rate
ranging from 0.25ksps to 64ksps. The device achieves
106dB SNR at 16ksps and 117dB SNR at 1ksps. The
MAX11040 operates from a single +3V supply. The dif-
ferential analog input range is 2.2V when using the
internal reference, an external reference is optional.
Each input is overvoltage protected up to 6V without
damage. The device uses an internal crystal oscillator
or an external source for clock.

The MAX11040 is compatible with SPI™, QSPI™,
MICROWIRE™, and DSP-compatible 4-wire serial inter-
faces. An on-board interface logic allows one serial inter-
face (with a single chip select) to control up to eight
cascaded devices or 32 simultaneous sampling analog
input channels.

♦ 3.0ꢀ to 3.6ꢀ Analog Supply ꢀoltage
The MAX11040 is ideally suited for power-management
systems. Each channel includes an adjustable sam-
pling phase enabling internal compensation for phase
shift due to external dividers, transformers, or filters at
the inputs. The output data rate is adjustable with a
0.065% resolution (at 16ksps or below) to track the
varying frequency of a periodic input. A SYNC input
allows periodic alignment of the conversion timing of
multiple devices with a remote timing source.
