The MAX1205 is a 14-bit, monolithic, analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) capable of conversion rates up to
1Msps. This integrated circuit, built on a CMOS pro-
cess, uses a fully differential, pipelined architecture
with digital error correction and a short self-calibration
procedure that corrects for capacitor and gain mis-
matches and ensures 14-bit linearity at full sample
rates. An on-chip track/hold (T/H) maintains superb
dynamic performance up to the Nyquist frequency. The
MAX1205 operates from a single +5V supply.
The fully differential inputs allow an input swing of
±V
REF
. The reference is also differential, with the posi-
tive reference (RFPF) typically connected to +4.096V
and the negative reference (RFNF) connected to ana-
log ground. Additional sensing pins (RFPS, RFNS) are
provided to compensate for any resistive-divider action
that may occur due to finite internal and external resis-
tances in the reference traces and the on-chip resis-
tance of the reference pins. A single-ended input is
also possible using two operational amplifiers.
The power dissipation is typically 257mW at +5V, at a
sampling rate of 1Msps. The device employs a CMOS-
compatible, 14-bit parallel, two’s complement output
data format. For higher sampling rates, the MAX1201 is
a 2.2Msps pin-compatible upgrade to the MAX1205.
The MAX1205 is available in an MQFP package, and
operates over the commercial (0°C to +70°C) and the
extended (-40°C to +85°C) temperature ranges.

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.
