The MAX1420, 3.3V, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter
(ADC) features a fully-differential input, pipelined, 12-
stage ADC architecture with wideband track-and-hold
(T/H) and digital error correction, incorporating a fully-
differential signal path. The MAX1420 is optimized for
low-power, high dynamic performance applications in
imaging and digital communications. The converter
operates from a single 3.3V supply, and consumes only
221mW. The fully-differential input stage has a small
signal -3dB bandwidth of 400MHz and may be operat-
ed with single-ended inputs.
An internal 2.048V precision bandgap reference sets
the full-scale range of the ADC. A flexible reference
structure accommodates an internal reference, or
externally applied buffered or unbuffered reference for
applications that require increased accuracy and a dif-
ferent input voltage range.
In addition to low operating power, the MAX1420 fea-
tures two power-down modes: reference power-down
and shutdown mode. In reference power-down, the
internal bandgap reference is deactivated, which
results in a typical 2mA supply current reduction. A full
shutdown mode is available to maximize power savings
during idle periods.
The MAX1420 provides parallel, offset binary, CMOS-
compatible three-state outputs.
The MAX1420 is available in a 7mm x 7mm x 1.4mm,
48-pin TQFP package, and is specified over the com-
mercial (0°C to +70°C) and the extended industrial
(-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.

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.
