Product details
Overview
MAX11044BETN+T from Maxim Integrated is a 4-channel, 16-bit simultaneous-sampling analog-to-digital converter with independent track-and-hold per channel, 250ksps throughput per channel, ±5V input range, and 56-pin TQFN-EP package. It delivers 92.3dB SNR, 100ps channel-to-channel T/H matching, and operates over –40°C to +85°C for precision power-grid protection systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX11044BETN+T datasheet, MAX11044BETN+T pinout, MAX11044BETN+T application, or MAX11044BETN+T equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, functional pin mapping, real-world use cases in multiphase motor control and vibration analysis, and validated alternative options for design continuity.
Technical Context
The MAX11044BETN+T implements SAR architecture with dedicated track-and-hold circuits per input channel, enabling true simultaneous sampling across all four analog inputs. Its internal 4.096V reference supports ±5V full-scale operation, while the 20MHz bidirectional parallel interface allows direct host microcontroller connection without level shifting.
It features dual-supply operation: 4.75V–5.25V analog supply (AVDD) and flexible 2.7V–5.25V digital supply (DVDD), decoupled via on-chip RDC sense and external 80μF bulk capacitance. Input clamps provide ±20mA overrange protection with external resistor limiting.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar simultaneous-sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX11044ETN+ | A-grade variant with ±0.4LSB INL (vs. B-grade ±3LSB); identical pinout, package, and timing | Better linearity for metrology-grade calibration; same thermal and layout requirements | Select MAX11044ETN+ when absolute accuracy dominates over cost; MAX11044BETN+T suits industrial control where matched channel performance is prioritized |
| AD7606C-24 | 8-channel, 24-bit, 1MSPS, but uses serial SPI interface and requires external reference; no internal ±20mA clamps | Higher resolution and channel count, but demands more complex digital interface and external protection circuitry | Choose AD7606C-24 for ultra-high-resolution applications needing >16-bit ENOB; MAX11044BETN+T offers simpler parallel interface and integrated protection for rugged industrial environments |
Compared with MAX11044ETN+, the MAX11044BETN+T trades minor INL degradation for tighter channel matching and lower cost-ideal for phase-coherent applications like motor control. Against AD7606C-24, it sacrifices resolution and channel count for plug-and-play parallel interfacing, built-in clamping, and reduced BOM count.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate per channel for the MAX11044BETN+T?
The MAX11044BETN+T achieves 250ksps per channel with simultaneous sampling across all four inputs. This rate is guaranteed over the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range and with internal reference enabled. Conversion time remains fixed at 3μs regardless of input frequency or supply voltage variation.
Does the MAX11044BETN+T require an external reference voltage?
No-the MAX11044BETN+T includes a precision 4.096V internal reference with ±5ppm/°C temperature coefficient, supporting ±5V full-scale input range without external components. An external reference (3.0V–4.25V) may be used via REFIO pin for custom scaling, but is not required for standard operation.
How does the MAX11044BETN+T handle overvoltage conditions on its analog inputs?
The MAX11044BETN+T integrates ±20mA input clamps on each CH0–CH3 pin. When paired with an external series resistor (e.g., 250Ω), these clamps safely limit input current during transients up to ±7.5V, protecting the internal SAR core without external TVS diodes or op-amp saturation recovery delays.
Can the MAX11044BETN+T interface directly with a 3.3V microcontroller?
Yes-the MAX11044BETN+T supports DVDD from 2.7V to 5.25V, allowing direct connection to 3.3V logic. Its parallel interface outputs (DB0–DB15, EOC) meet 3.3V VOH/VOL specs, and inputs (RD, WR, CS, CONVST) accept 3.3V-compatible VIH/VIL thresholds, eliminating level-shifter components.
What is the purpose of the RDC pins on the MAX11044BETN+T?
The RDC pins (pins 22, 28, 35, 43, 49) connect to the internal reference buffer's decoupling node. They must be tied together and bypassed to AGND with ≥80μF total capacitance (e.g., four 33μF tantalum caps) to stabilize the 4.096V reference under dynamic load, preventing gain drift and increased THD during high-throughput operation.
