Product details
Overview
MAX11135ATI+ from Maxim Integrated is a 12-bit, 4-channel, 500ksps successive-approximation register (SAR) ADC with external reference support, 1.5MHz full-linear bandwidth, ±1 LSB INL/DNL, and 70dB SINAD at 250kHz input - deployed in high-speed closed-loop control and portable medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX11135ATI+ datasheet, MAX11135ATI+ pinout, MAX11135ATI+ application, or MAX11135ATI+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TQFN-28 package mapping, internal/external clock mode behavior, SampleSet sequencer capability, and real-world design implications for battery-powered data acquisition systems.
Technical Context
The MAX11135ATI+ implements a SAR architecture with dual clock modes: internally clocked (with integrated 16-entry FIFO and programmable averaging) and externally clocked (enabling SampleSet-based channel sequencing up to 256 entries). It supports single-ended, pseudo-differential, and fully differential analog inputs across all four channels.
Its analog front-end features true differential track-and-hold, bipolar/unipolar input range selection via RANGE bit, and 30ps RMS aperture jitter. The 3-wire SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface operates up to 8MHz with no pipeline delay and full shutdown current of 2µA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 12-bit - delivers 4096 discrete output codes with monotonic transfer function and no missing codes over temperature. |
| Sampling Rate | 500ksps - enables real-time capture of signals up to 250kHz while maintaining ≥70dB SINAD per specification. |
| INL / DNL | ±1 LSB - ensures accurate amplitude fidelity and linearity critical for closed-loop feedback and sensor calibration. |
| Full-Linear Bandwidth | 1.5MHz - supports undersampling of RF or transient signals without harmonic distortion degradation. |
| Power Dissipation | 4.2mW at 3V/500ksps - enables >10-hour operation on a 200mAh Li-ion cell in continuous acquisition mode. |
| Supply Range | VDD = 2.35V–3.6V, OVDD = 1.5V–3.6V - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V logic without level shifters. |
| Shutdown Current | 2µA - reduces standby power by >99.9% versus active mode, essential for wake-on-event architectures. |
Pinout & Package
MAX11135ATI+ is housed in a 28-pin, 5mm × 5mm, 0.5mm pitch TQFN package with exposed pad (EP), rated for -40°C to +125°C operation. Pin functions are validated per Maxim's official pin configuration diagram for the 4-channel variant (MAX11135).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN0–AIN3 | Analog Input Channels | Four configurable inputs supporting single-ended, pseudo-differential (vs. REF−/AIN15), or fully differential pairs. |
| CNVST | Active-Low Conversion Start | Edge-triggered command initiating conversion sequence; compatible with microcontroller GPIO or timer outputs. |
| REF+, REF− | Differential Reference Inputs | Accept external 1V–VDD reference; REF− may double as AIN15 in 16-channel variants but is dedicated REF− in MAX11135ATI+. |
| SCLK, DIN, DOUT, CS | 3-Wire Serial Interface | Full-duplex SPI-compatible interface; DOUT valid on SCLK falling edge; CS enables three-state output control. |
| EOC | End-of-Conversion Flag | Active-low pulse signaling data readiness only in internal clock mode; not used in external clock mode. |
| VDD, OVDD, DGND, GND | Power & Ground Rails | VDD powers analog core (2.35–3.6V); OVDD powers digital I/O (1.5–3.6V); separate DGND/GND reduce noise coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SampleSet Channel Sequencer | User-programmable 256-step analog input sequence reduces MCU polling overhead and enables mixed-rate sampling (e.g., fast temp + slow pressure). |
| Internal FIFO (16-entry) | Buffers conversions during high-speed acquisition, allowing asynchronous readout at lower SCLK rates - decouples sampling from host timing constraints. |
| Configurable Input Topology | All four channels support unipolar/bipolar ranges and single-ended/pseudo-differential/fully differential configurations - eliminates need for external signal conditioning circuitry. |
| AutoShutdown with Fast Wake-up | Enters 2µA shutdown automatically after conversion; wakes in <1µs - ideal for event-driven sensing in IoT edge nodes. |
| 1.5MHz Full-Linear Bandwidth | Preserves signal integrity for transients and harmonics beyond Nyquist, enabling accurate undersampling of 1–2MHz sensor outputs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit SAR ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS7953IRHBT | 12-bit, 16-channel, 1MSPS, SPI interface; requires external reference; no internal FIFO or SampleSet sequencer. | Better channel count and speed, but lacks autonomous sequencing and FIFO - increases host firmware complexity. | Select when higher channel density and throughput outweigh autonomous operation needs. |
| AD7476ARTZ-REEL7 | 12-bit, single-channel, 1MSPS, no FIFO, no sequencer, 3.6V max VDD, 3.5mW typical power. | Lower integration - requires external MUX and timing control for multi-channel use; simpler for point-measurement designs. | Select for cost-sensitive, single-sensor applications where system-level sequencing is handled externally. |
Compared with ADS7953IRHBT and AD7476ARTZ-REEL7, the MAX11135ATI+ uniquely combines 4-channel flexibility, on-chip FIFO, and SampleSet sequencing - reducing host processing burden and PCB area in space-constrained, multi-sensor embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by MAX11135ATI+?
The MAX11135ATI+ supports a maximum sampling rate of 500ksps in both internal and external clock modes. At this rate, it achieves 70dB SINAD at 250kHz input frequency and consumes 4.2mW with a 3V supply. Conversion time is 5.9µs in internal clock mode and 2000ns in external clock mode with 8MHz SCLK.
Does MAX11135ATI+ support differential input configurations?
Yes, MAX11135ATI+ supports fully differential, pseudo-differential, and single-ended analog input configurations across all four channels. In pseudo-differential mode, inputs are referenced to REF− (pin 13), and in fully differential mode, AIN0–AIN3 can be paired as AIN0/AIN1 and AIN2/AIN3 with programmable polarity and range selection.
How does the SampleSet feature work in MAX11135ATI+?
The SampleSet feature in MAX11135ATI+ is a user-programmable channel sequencer that accepts up to 256 entries defining acquisition order, repetition, and channel enable/disable states. It operates autonomously in external clock mode, freeing the host MCU from managing individual conversions and reducing system-level noise and power consumption.
What is the purpose of the EOC pin on MAX11135ATI+?
The EOC (End of Conversion) pin on MAX11135ATI+ is an active-low output that pulses low to indicate valid conversion data in internal clock mode only. In external clock mode, data validity is determined by SCLK timing and DOUT edge alignment - EOC remains inactive and should be left unconnected or ignored.
Can MAX11135ATI+ operate with a 1.8V I/O supply?
Yes, MAX11135ATI+ supports OVDD from 1.5V to 3.6V, making it fully compatible with 1.8V digital systems. Its digital inputs accept VIH ≥ 0.75×OVDD and VIL ≤ 0.25×OVDD, and DOUT drives VOH ≥ 0.85×OVDD and VOL ≤ 0.15×OVDD - eliminating need for level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with 1.8V FPGAs or microcontrollers.
