Product details
Overview
MAX11128ATI+ from Analog Devices is a 12-bit, 16-channel, 1Msps SAR analog-to-digital converter with external reference support, 1.5MHz full-linear bandwidth, and integrated SampleSet™ channel sequencing. It operates from 2.35V to 3.6V, consumes 5.4mW at 1Msps, and features ±1 LSB INL/DNL over –40°C to +125°C - enabling high-accuracy data acquisition in battery-powered industrial sensors.
For engineers reviewing the MAX11128ATI+ datasheet, MAX11128ATI+ pinout, MAX11128ATI+ application, or MAX11128ATI+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TQFN-28 package layout, real-world use cases in closed-loop control and medical instrumentation, and two validated alternative ADCs with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The MAX11128ATI+ implements a successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture with dual clock modes: internal clock (enabling FIFO buffering and on-chip averaging for SNR improvement) and external clock (supporting SampleSet™ programmable channel sequencing up to 256 entries). Its analog front-end supports single-ended, pseudo-differential, and true differential input configurations across all 16 channels.
It integrates a 16-entry FIFO, AutoShutdown™ with 2μA full-shutdown current, and a 16MHz 3-wire SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface. Input voltage ranges are software-selectable bipolar (±VREF+/2 or ±VREF+) or unipolar (0 to VREF+), with absolute input limits of –0.1V to VREF+ + 0.1V relative to GND.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit - delivers 4096 discrete output codes for high-fidelity signal digitization in precision measurement systems. |
| Sampling Rate | 1Msps - enables real-time capture of fast transients in motor control feedback loops and ultrasound front-ends. |
| Full-Linear Bandwidth | 1.5MHz - maintains SINAD > 70dB up to 1.5MHz, supporting accurate digitization of wideband sensor outputs. |
| INL / DNL | ±1 LSB / ±1 LSB - ensures monotonicity and minimal code-width variation across temperature, critical for closed-loop stability. |
| Power Dissipation | 5.4mW at 1Msps (VDD = 3V) - allows continuous high-speed sampling in thermally constrained portable instruments. |
| Supply Range | VDD: 2.35V–3.6V; OVVDD: 1.5V–3.6V - supports direct interfacing with 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V logic without level shifters. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and downhole sensing environments. |
Pinout & Package
MAX11128ATI+ is housed in a 28-pin, 5mm × 5mm TQFN-EP package (Package Code T2855+3, Outline 21-0140) with exposed pad connected to GND for thermal and noise performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN0–AIN13 | Analog Input Channels | 14 dedicated single-ended inputs; configurable as fully differential (8 pairs) or pseudo-differential (15 vs. common AIN15). |
| CNVST/AIN14 | Conversion Start / Analog Input 14 | Active-low hardware trigger for conversion; doubles as 15th analog input when not used as CNVST. |
| REF-/AIN15 | Reference Negative / Analog Input 15 | Differential reference return; also serves as 16th analog input in single-ended mode. |
| REF+ | Positive Reference Input | Accepts external reference from 1V to VDD; requires 0.47µF bypass capacitor for noise immunity. |
| VDD, OVDD, DGND, GND | Power & Ground Rails | VDD powers core analog circuitry; OVDD powers digital I/O; separate DGND/GND reduces digital noise coupling. |
| SCLK, CS, DIN, DOUT, EOC | 3-Wire Serial Interface | 16MHz SPI-compatible interface; EOC asserts low only in internal-clock mode to signal valid data ready. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SampleSet™ Channel Sequencing | User-programmable 256-step sequence eliminates microcontroller polling overhead in multichannel monitoring. |
| 16-Entry FIFO Buffer | Enables burst sampling at 1Msps while allowing slower host readout - decouples acquisition and processing timing. |
| Internal Averaging Mode | Improves SNR by averaging multiple conversions per sample - effective for suppressing low-frequency noise in sensor signals. |
| Flexible Input Configuration | Per-channel selection of single-ended, pseudo-differential, or true differential input - simplifies mixed-signal system design. |
| AutoShutdown™ with 2μA Current | Reduces standby power to sub-microwatt levels between conversions - extends battery life in intermittent-sampling applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, multichannel SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8688IPWR | 8-channel, 16-bit, 1Msps, internal reference only; no SampleSet™ or FIFO; SPI interface with busy indicator. | Better resolution but lacks programmable sequencing and low-power shutdown - suited for static calibration, not dynamic channel scanning. | Select when absolute accuracy > sequencing flexibility; verify external reference compatibility is unnecessary. |
| AD7961BCPZ | 16-bit, 5Msps, 8-channel, no FIFO, no internal averaging; requires external sequencer; higher power (45mW). | Higher speed/resolution but demands more host resources and PCB area; no integrated low-power modes. | Choose for ultra-high-fidelity capture where power and integration are secondary to raw performance. |
Compared with ADS8688IPWR and AD7961BCPZ, the MAX11128ATI+ uniquely balances 12-bit precision, 16-channel flexibility, 1Msps throughput, and ultra-low power - making it optimal for embedded systems requiring autonomous multichannel acquisition with minimal MCU involvement.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the MAX11128ATI+?
The MAX11128ATI+ supports a maximum sampling rate of 1 million samples per second (1Msps) in both internal and external clock modes. At this rate, conversion time is 5.9µs (internal clock) or 1000ns (external clock with 16MHz SCLK), and power dissipation is 5.4mW with a 3V supply. This rate is maintained across the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range.
Does the MAX11128ATI+ require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the MAX11128ATI+ requires an external differential reference: REF+ must be supplied between 1V and VDD, and REF−/AIN15 serves as the reference return. The device does not include an internal reference; however, it supports user-configurable bipolar (±VREF+/2 or ±VREF+) and unipolar (0 to VREF+) input ranges based on the RANGE bit setting.
How many analog input channels does the MAX11128ATI+ support, and how are they configured?
The MAX11128ATI+ supports up to 16 analog input channels (AIN0–AIN13, CNVST/AIN14, REF−/AIN15). These can be configured as 16 single-ended inputs, 8 fully differential pairs, or 15 pseudo-differential inputs relative to a common channel. Configuration is controlled via register settings and does not require external hardware changes.
What is the purpose of the SampleSet™ feature in the MAX11128ATI+?
SampleSet™ is a user-programmable channel sequencer that allows up to 256 unique analog input sequences to be loaded into the MAX11128ATI+. It operates autonomously in external clock mode, eliminating continuous MCU polling and reducing system-level communication overhead - especially valuable in multichannel, mixed-rate sensor monitoring applications.
Is the MAX11128ATI+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX11120–MAX11128 family?
No - the MAX11128ATI+ is not pin-compatible with lower-channel variants (e.g., MAX11122ATI+, MAX11125ATI+) despite sharing the same 28-pin TQFN package. Pin functions differ significantly: AIN14 and AIN15 are repurposed as CNVST/AIN14 and REF−/AIN15 on MAX11128ATI+, whereas those pins are grounded or unused on 4- and 8-channel versions.
