MAX197AENI

Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) Overview

The MAX197AENI is a multi-range, 12-bit data-acquisition system (DAS) requiring a single +5V supply. It features eight analog input channels independently programmable for ±10V, ±5V, 0V to +10V, or 0V to +5V ranges. The device provides a 100ksps throughput rate with a 6µs conversion time and accepts signals spanning above the power-supply rail and below ground. It includes an internal 4.096V reference or supports external references, offering fault protection up to ±16.5V on all inputs.
