MAX1464
Low-Power, Low-Noise Multichannel
Sensor Signal Processor
General Description
The MAX1464 is a highly integrated, low-power, low-noise
multichannel sensor signal processor optimized for indus-
trial, and process-control applications such as pressure
sensing and compensation, RTD and thermocouple lin-
earization, weight sensing and classification, and remote
process monitoring with limit indication.
The MAX1464 accepts sensors with either single-ended
or differential outputs. The MAX1464 accommodates sen-
sor output sensitivities from 1mV/V to 1V/V. The MAX1464
provides amplification, calibration, signal linearization,
and temperature compensation that enable an overall
performance approaching the inherent repeatability of the
sensor without requiring any external trim components.
Two 16-bit voltage-output DACs and two 12-bit PWMs can
be used to indicate each of the temperature-compensated
sensor signals independently, as a sum or difference
signal, or user-defined relationship between each signal
and temperature. Uncommitted op amps are available to
buffer the DAC outputs, drive heavier external loads, or
provide additional gain and filtering.
The MAX1464 incorporates a 16-bit CPU, user-pro-
grammable 4kB of FLASH program memory, 128 bytes
of FLASH user information, one 16-bit ADC, two 16-bit
DACs, two 12-bit PWM digital outputs, four rail-to-rail op
amps, one SPI™-compatible interface, two GPIOs, and
one on-chip temperature sensor.
The MAX1464 operates from a single 5.0V (typ) supply
and is packaged for automotive, industrial, and commer-
cial temperature ranges in a 28-pin SSOP package.

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.
