MAX1361EUB+

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The MAX1361EUB+ is a low-power, 4-channel, 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designed for system monitoring applications. It features a digitally programmable window comparator with an interrupt output and SMBus alert response. The device operates from a single 2.7V to 3.6V supply and includes an internal 2.048V voltage reference. It supports I2C-compatible serial interfaces at standard, fast, and high-speed modes up to 1.7MHz. The ADC offers a maximum conversion rate of 94.4ksps in normal mode and 150ksps in monitor mode. Supply current consumption is 436µA in monitor mode and drops to less than 0.5µA in power-down mode.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Feature Summary

• Integrated digitally programmable window comparator with automatic interrupt assertion upon threshold violation
• SMBus alert response capability for rapid identification of alarming devices on shared interrupts
• On-chip random access memory supporting scan modes to reduce interface overhead
• Configurable analog inputs for single-ended or fully differential operation with software-selectable bipolar/unipolar ranges

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Applications

• System Monitoring/Supervision
• Servers/Workstations
• High Reliability Power Supplies
• Medical Instrumentation

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Procurement Notes

Verify the component designation against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the specific part number and package type. Ensure that the ordering suffix matches the required temperature range and lead-free compliance standards. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to validate electrical characteristics and pin configurations before integration into design specifications.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low-power system monitoring with programmable trip thresholds. The MAX1361EUB+ is suitable for designs operating within a 2.7V to 3.6V supply range. Consider the integrated 2.048V reference and 10-bit resolution for precision requirements. Evaluate the I2C interface speed options and monitor mode capabilities against system latency and power constraints.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Part Context

The MAX1361EUB+ belongs to the MAX1361/MAX1362 family of 4-channel, 10-bit system monitors. It is distinguished by its 2.7V to 3.6V operating voltage range and internal 2.048V reference, contrasting with the MAX1362 which supports higher voltages and a 4.096V reference. The EUB+ suffix indicates a 10-pin µMAX package with extended temperature rating and lead-free construction.

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Replacement Considerations

The MAX1361MEUB+ is a pin-compatible alternative within the same series offering identical functionality but potentially different address configurations. For 12-bit resolution requirements, the MAX1363/MAX1364 series provides pin-compatible upgrades.
