MAX40109IATP+T

Sensor And Detector Interfaces Overview

The MAX40109IATP+T is a low-power, precision sensor interface System-on-Chip (SoC) designed for pressure, strain gauge, force, and temperature applications. It integrates a high-precision programmable Analog Front End (AFE), an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), calibration memory, and digital signal processing. The device features a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) with an output buffer to support analog voltage output and a 4mA–20mA current loop. Operating from a supply voltage range of 3V to 36V, it provides both analog and digital outputs via I2C or 1-Wire interfaces. The component is specified over an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is housed in a TQFN package.
