MAX161BCWI+

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Overview

The MAX161BCWI+ is a specialized data acquisition system manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand, housed in a 28-pin SOIC-Wide surface-mount package. It integrates an 8-bit analog-to-digital converter with a sampling rate of 50 kS/s and supports single-ended input signals. The device operates on a supply voltage ranging from -0.3 V to 7 V. Designed for industrial applications, it functions within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. This integrated circuit combines signal conditioning and conversion capabilities into a single component.

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Feature Summary

• Integrates analog-to-digital conversion with signal conditioning for simplified system design
• Supports single-ended input configurations for straightforward sensor interfacing
• Operates within standard industrial temperature ranges for reliable performance

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Applications

• Industrial process control systems requiring direct sensor interface
• Data acquisition modules for environmental monitoring
• Battery-powered instrumentation due to low power requirements

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'BCWI+' against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm the exact temperature grade and packaging variant. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts for the 28-pin SOIC-Wide footprint. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest lifecycle status to confirm availability and obsolescence warnings before finalizing procurement plans.

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined ADC and signal conditioner is required to reduce bill-of-materials count. Compare the 8-bit resolution and 50 kS/s speed against application accuracy needs. Verify that the single-ended input architecture aligns with the source signal type. Consider the 7 V maximum supply limit for power budget calculations.

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX161 family of specialized data acquisition ICs. These components are designed to simplify the interface between sensors and microcontrollers by integrating amplification and filtering stages directly with the conversion core. The series targets cost-sensitive industrial applications where space and component count are critical constraints.

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Analog Devices cross-reference guide for verified pin-compatible alternatives. Check for updated revisions within the MAX161 family that may offer improved specifications or enhanced packaging options while maintaining functional equivalence.
