Product details
Overview
The MAX11048ECB+ from Maxim Integrated is a 6-channel, 16-bit simultaneous-sampling analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with independent track-and-hold per channel, 250ksps throughput per channel, 4.096V internal reference, and 64-pin TQFP-EP package. It operates from 4.75V–5.25V analog and 2.7V–5.25V digital supplies, accepts 0–5V inputs, and delivers 92.3dB SNR at 10kHz for precision power-grid protection and multiphase motor control.
For engineers reviewing the MAX11048ECB+ datasheet, MAX11048ECB+ pinout, MAX11048ECB+ application, or MAX11048ECB+ equivalent, this device supports high-fidelity waveform capture in synchronized multi-channel systems where channel-to-channel matching (<100ps T/H skew), low drift reference (±4ppm/°C), and overrange input clamping (±20mA) are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
This ADC employs independent SAR architecture with dedicated track-and-hold circuitry per channel, enabling true simultaneous sampling across all six inputs without inter-channel acquisition timing skew. Its 3µs conversion time and 10ns aperture delay support high-speed transient capture in dynamic systems like vibration analysis and automatic test equipment.
The device integrates a low-drift 4.096V bandgap reference with ±4ppm/°C tempco and supports external reference inputs from 3.0V to 4.25V. Its bidirectional 20MHz parallel interface (DB0–DB15) allows direct host CPU connection without level-shifting, while separate AVDD/DVDD rails enable flexible interfacing with 3.3V or 5V logic domains.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar simultaneous-sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7606BSTZ | 8-channel, 16-bit, 200ksps, internal 2.5V ref, SPI interface only | Lacks parallel interface; lower throughput; no 0–5V input range without external scaling | Choose AD7606BSTZ when SPI interface suffices and 8-channel count outweighs 50ksps/channel speed loss. |
| ADS8686SIPWR | 6-channel, 16-bit, 1MSPS, integrated PGA, SPI interface, 5V supply only | Higher speed but no simultaneous sampling (sequential with <100ns skew); no internal 4.096V ref | Choose ADS8686SIPWR when programmable gain and higher single-channel rate are prioritized over true simultaneity and reference flexibility. |
Compared with AD7606BSTZ and ADS8686SIPWR, the MAX11048ECB+ uniquely combines 6-channel simultaneous sampling at 250ksps, 0–5V input range, 4.096V internal reference, and 20MHz parallel interface-making it optimal for deterministic, high-throughput, phase-sensitive industrial measurement systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage range supported by the MAX11048ECB+?
The MAX11048ECB+ accepts a 0 to +5V unipolar input range when using its internal 4.096V reference. With an external reference (3.0V–4.25V), the full-scale input range scales linearly to +3.7V–+5.2V. Input pins are protected to ±2.5V relative to AGND and feature ±20mA internal clamps for overvoltage resilience.
Does the MAX11048ECB+ support true simultaneous sampling across all six channels?
Yes, the MAX11048ECB+ features independent track-and-hold (T/H) and SAR circuitry for each of its six channels, enabling true simultaneous sampling with <100ps channel-to-channel T/H matching. This ensures phase-coherent acquisition critical for power quality and motor control applications.
What is the role of the RDC and RDC_SENSE pins on the MAX11048ECB+?
RDC is the reference buffer decoupling pin, requiring ≥80µF total capacitance to AGND for stable internal reference operation. RDC_SENSE is a dedicated feedback sense pin (present only in TQFP packages like MAX11048ECB+) that improves reference regulation accuracy by compensating for PCB trace resistance between RDC and the internal buffer.
Can the MAX11048ECB+ operate with a 3.3V digital supply while maintaining full analog performance?
Yes, the MAX11048ECB+ supports DVDD from 2.7V to 5.25V independently of AVDD (4.75V–5.25V). At DVDD = 3.3V, digital supply current is 6.5mA (typ), and all timing specifications-including 20MHz parallel interface operation-are fully guaranteed without performance degradation.
How does the MAX11048ECB+ handle input overrange conditions?
The MAX11048ECB+ includes internal ±20mA input clamps on each analog input (CH0–CH5). When voltage exceeds the 0–5V range, these clamps limit current flow, protecting the internal circuitry. A simple external series resistor (e.g., 100Ω) suffices for robust overvoltage tolerance up to ±20V without additional components.
