MAX196BCAI+T

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Overview

The MAX196BCAI+T is a multirange, single +5V, 12-bit data-acquisition system (DAS) in a 28-pin SSOP package. It integrates six analog input channels with software-selectable ranges: ±10V, ±5V, 0V to +10V, and 0V to +5V. The device features a 5MHz bandwidth track/hold, 100ksps throughput rate, and fault protection to ±16.5V. It supports internal or external references and clocks, with two power-down modes for low-current shutdown. The part operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

Verify the 'T' suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm the 'C' designation corresponds to the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature grade. Ensure the '+'' suffix confirms RoHS compliance. Cross-reference the specific distributor lot codes against the manufacturer's latest revision history to guarantee component authenticity.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring multi-range input flexibility on a single +5V supply. The MAX196 supports bipolar and unipolar ranges via software configuration. Consider the 100ksps throughput and 12-bit resolution for precision requirements. Verify interface compatibility with the target microprocessor using the standard three-state parallel I/O port.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX196/MAX198 family of multirange DAS. The MAX196 variant specifically supports fixed voltage ranges like ±10V and ±5V, whereas the MAX198 scales directly with the reference voltage. Both share identical architecture, pinouts, and control logic, differing primarily in input scaling factors.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Replacement Considerations

Direct functional substitutes include other parts from the MAX196/MAX198 family, such as the MAX196ACNI or MAX196BCWI, provided the package type and temperature grade match the design requirements. No alternative manufacturers are documented for this specific architecture.
