Product details
Overview
MAX1293BEEG+T from Maxim Integrated is a 12-bit, 250ksps successive-approximation ADC with integrated +2.5V reference, software-configurable 4-channel single-ended / 2-channel pseudo-differential analog input multiplexer, and byte-wide parallel (8+4) interface. It operates from a single +3V analog supply and supports digital I/O logic levels from +1.8V to +3.6V via VLOGIC. Designed for low-power data acquisition in portable medical and industrial monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1293BEEG+T datasheet, MAX1293BEEG+T pinout, MAX1293BEEG+T application, or MAX1293BEEG+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±0.5 LSB INL, 3MHz full-power bandwidth track/hold, 2µs wake-up from shutdown, tri-state INT output, and QSOP-24 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MAX1293BEEG+T implements a charge-redistribution SAR architecture with an internal 3MHz full-power bandwidth track-and-hold stage, enabling undersampling of high-frequency transients up to 3MHz while maintaining DC accuracy. Its analog input structure supports unipolar/bipolar and single-ended/pseudo-differential modes via software-controlled configuration bits.
Conversion is initiated by a control byte written via the parallel interface, with selectable internal or external clocking and internal/external acquisition timing. The device features two software-selectable power-down modes-standby (10µA) and full shutdown (2µA)-and automatically tri-states INT when CS goes high.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

| Sampling Rate | 250ksps - supports real-time capture of signals up to 125kHz Nyquist frequency |
| INL / DNL | ±0.5 LSB / ±1 LSB - ensures monotonicity and <0.012% integral linearity error across full scale |
| Reference | +2.5V internal - eliminates need for external reference IC; TCREF = ±2 ppm/°C for stable accuracy over temperature |
| Power Consumption | 1.9mA at 250ksps - enables battery operation with <5.7mW total dissipation at VDD = VLOGIC = 3V |

| Package | 24-pin QSOP - 8.7mm × 3.9mm footprint compatible with automated SMT assembly and IPC-7351B land patterns |
Pinout & Package
MAX1293BEEG+T is housed in a 24-pin QSOP (Quad Small Outline Package) with 0.65mm pitch, JEDEC MS-013AC compliant, and rated for -40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 HBEN | High-Byte Enable | Selects MSB (D8–D11) or LSB (D0–D7) on shared data bus; enables 12-bit read in two cycles |
| 2–9 D7–D0/D11–D8 | Three-State Parallel Data Bus | Bidirectional 8-bit bus multiplexed with 4-bit high byte; supports standard µP I/O timing |
| 10 INT | Interrupt Output | Active-low open-drain signal asserted when conversion completes and data is ready |
| 11 RD | Read Strobe | Falling edge reads conversion result; tri-states outputs when CS is high |
| 12 WR | Write Strobe | Rising edge latches control byte (channel, mode, clock config); initiates acquisition/conversion |
| 13 CLK | Clock Input/Output | Accepts external 100kHz–4.8MHz clock or floats for internal clock mode (tie to VDD/GND) |
| 14 CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; forces all digital outputs into high-impedance state when deasserted |
| 15–18 CH0–CH3 | Analog Input Channels | Single-ended inputs referenced to COM; support unipolar (0–2.5V) or bipolar (±1.25V) ranges |
| 19 COM | Common Reference | Analog ground reference for single-ended mode; must be stable to ±0.5 LSB during conversion |
| 20 GND | Analog & Digital Ground | Single ground plane connection; requires low-inductance layout to minimize noise coupling |
| 21 REFADJ | Reference Buffer Control | Connect to VDD to disable internal bandgap; bypass with 0.01µF capacitor when using external reference |
| 22 REF | Reference Input/Output | Supplies +2.5V internal reference; requires 4.7µF capacitor to GND for stability |
| 23 VDD | Analog Supply | +2.7V to +3.6V analog rail; bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor close to pin |
| 24 VLOGIC | Digital I/O Supply | +1.8V to +3.6V logic rail; sets output voltage levels independently of VDD for mixed-voltage interfacing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Software-configurable analog input | Runtime selection of 4-channel single-ended or 2-channel pseudo-differential mode via control byte bit SGL/DIF |
| Tri-state INT output | INT automatically enters high-impedance state when CS is high, eliminating need for external buffer in multi-device buses |
| Low-power shutdown | Full shutdown current ≤2µA enables >1-year battery life in intermittent-sampling applications like remote data loggers |
| Flexible logic-level interface | VLOGIC pin allows direct connection to +1.8V, +2.5V, or +3.3V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry |
| Internal track/hold | 3MHz full-power bandwidth enables accurate digitization of fast transients without external sample-hold IC |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 12-bit, parallel-output ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX1293ACEG+ | 0°C to +70°C operating range vs. -40°C to +85°C for MAX1293BEEG+T; identical electrical specs and pinout | Suitable for commercial-grade equipment only; not qualified for extended industrial or medical environments | Select MAX1293ACEG+ only if ambient temperature remains within 0–70°C and cost sensitivity outweighs reliability requirements |
| ADS7822U | 8-bit resolution, SPI interface, no internal reference; 200ksps max rate; SOIC-8 package | Targeted at lower-precision, space-constrained applications where serial interface and smaller footprint are prioritized over resolution and parallel speed | Choose ADS7822U only when 8-bit resolution suffices and system design favors SPI over parallel bus architecture |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MAX1293BEEG+T?
The MAX1293BEEG+T is specified for operation from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for industrial and medical environments where extended thermal performance is required. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables of the official datasheet, and distinguishes it from the commercial-grade MAX1293ACEG+ (0°C to +70°C).
Does the MAX1293BEEG+T require an external reference voltage?
No, the MAX1293BEEG+T includes a precision +2.5V internal bandgap reference with ±2 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 2.49V to 2.51V output tolerance. An external reference may be used by connecting REFADJ to VDD and applying a stable voltage to the REF pin, but it is not required for standard operation.
How does the MAX1293BEEG+T handle 12-bit data output on an 8-bit bus?
The MAX1293BEEG+T uses the HBEN (High Byte Enable) pin to multiplex its 12-bit result across the 8-bit data bus: when HBEN = 0, D0–D7 carry the LSB byte; when HBEN = 1, D0–D3 carry the MSB nibble (D8–D11). Two consecutive reads retrieve the full conversion result without requiring additional data lines.
Can the MAX1293BEEG+T interface directly with a +1.8V microcontroller?
Yes-the MAX1293BEEG+T supports logic-level independence via the VLOGIC pin, which accepts +1.8V to +3.6V. When VLOGIC = +1.8V, its digital outputs (D0–D7, INT, RD, WR) swing between 0V and ~1.3V, meeting input thresholds of modern +1.8V I/O standards without level shifters.
What power-down modes does the MAX1293BEEG+T support, and how much current do they draw?
The MAX1293BEEG+T offers two software-selectable power-down modes: Standby mode draws ≤10µA, and Full Shutdown draws ≤2µA (typical). Both modes retain register settings and resume operation in ≤2µs upon wake-up, enabling aggressive power cycling in duty-cycled data acquisition systems.
