Microcontroller-Interface,
4.5-/3.5-Digit Panel Meters with 4–20mA Output
General Description
The MAX1366/MAX1368 low-power, 4.5- and 3.5-digit,
panel meters feature an integrated sigma-delta analog-
to-digital converter (ADC), LED display drivers, voltage
digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and a 4–20mA (or 0
to 16mA) current driver.
The MAX1366/MAX1368’s analog input voltage range is
programmable to either ±2V or ±200mV. The MAX1368
drives a 3.5-digit (±1999 count) display and the
MAX1366 drives a 4.5-digit (±19,999 count) display.
The ADC output directly drives the LED display as well
as the voltage DAC, which, in turn, drives the 4–20mA
(or 0 to 16mA) current-loop output.
In normal operation, the 0 to 16mA/4–20mA current-
loop output follows the ±2V or ±200mV analog input to
drive remote panel-meter displays, data loggers, and
other industrial controllers. For added flexibility, the
MAX1366/MAX1368 allow direct access to the ADC
result, DAC output, and the V/I converter input.
The sigma-delta ADC does not require external preci-
sion integrating capacitors, autozero capacitors, crystal
oscillators, charge pumps, or other circuitry commonly
required in dual-slope ADC panel-meter circuits. On-
chip analog input and reference buffers allow direct
interface with high-impedance signal sources. Excellent
common-mode rejection and digital filtering provides
greater than 100dB rejection of simultaneous 50Hz and
60Hz line noise. Other features include data hold and
peak detection and overrange/underrange detection.
The MAX1366/MAX1368 require a 2.7V to 5.25V supply,
a 4.75V to 5.25V V/I supply, and a 7V to 30V loop sup-
ply. They are available in a space-saving (7mm x
7mm), 48-pin TQFP package and operate over the
extended (-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.
