C,
12-Bit ADCs in Ultra-Small Packages
General Description
The MAX11612–MAX11617 low-power, 12-bit, multi-
channel analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) feature
internal track/hold (T/H), voltage reference, clock, and an
I
2
C-compatible 2-wire serial interface. These devices
operate from a single supply of 2.7V to 3.6V
(MAX11613/MAX11615/MAX11617) or 4.5V to 5.5V
(MAX11612/MAX11614/MAX11616) and require only
670µA at the maximum sampling rate of 94.4ksps.
Supply current falls below 230µA for sampling rates
under 46ksps. AutoShutdown™ powers down the
devices between conversions, reducing supply current
to less than 1µA at low throughput rates. The
MAX11612/MAX11613 have 4 analog input channels
each, the MAX11614/MAX11615 have 8 analog input
channels each, while the MAX11616/MAX11617 have
12 analog input channels each. The fully differential
analog inputs are software configurable for unipolar or
bipolar, and single-ended or differential operation.
The full-scale analog input range is determined by the
internal reference or by an externally applied reference
voltage ranging from 1V to V
DD
. The MAX11613/
MAX11615/MAX11617 feature a 2.048V internal refer-
ence and the MAX11612/MAX11614/MAX11616 feature
a 4.096V internal reference.
The MAX11612/MAX11613 are available in an 8-pin
µMAX
®
package and the MAX11613 is available in an
ultra-small, 1.9mm x 2.2mm, 12-bump wafer-level pack-
age (WLP). The MAX11614–MAX11617 are available in a
16-pin QSOP package. The MAX11612–MAX11617 are
guaranteed over the extended temperature range (-40°C
to +85°C). For pin-compatible 10-bit parts, refer to the
MAX11606–MAX11611 data sheet. For pin-compatible 8-
bit parts, refer to the MAX11600–MAX11605 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.

TIMING CHARACTERISTICS FOR HIGH-SPEED MODE (C
B
= 400pF, Note 13)
MAX11612–MAX11617
Note 1:
All WLP devices are 100% production tested at T
A
= +25°C. Specifications over temperature limits are guaranteed by
design and characterization.
Note 2:
For DC accuracy, the MAX11612/MAX11614/MAX11616 are tested at V
DD
= 5V and the
MAX11613/MAX11615/MAX11617are tested at V
DD
= 3V. All devices are configured for unipolar, single-ended inputs.
Note 3:
Relative accuracy is the deviation of the analog value at any code from its theoretical value after the full-scale range and
offsets have been calibrated.
Note 4:
Offset nulled.
Note 5:
Conversion time is defined as the number of clock cycles needed for conversion multiplied by the clock period. Conversion
time does not include acquisition time. SCL is the conversion clock in the external clock mode.
Note 6:
A filter on the SDA and SCL inputs suppresses noise spikes and delays the sampling instant.
Note 7:
The absolute input-voltage range for the analog inputs (AIN0–AIN11) is from GND to V
DD
.
Note 8:
When the internal reference is configured to be available at AIN_/REF (SEL[2:1] = 11), decouple AIN_/REF to GND with a
0.1µF capacitor and a 2kΩ series resistor (see the
Typical Operating Circuit).
Note 9:
ADC performance is limited by the converter’s noise floor, typically 300µV
P-P
.
Note 10:
Measured as for the MAX11613/MAX11615/MAX11617:
