Product details
Overview
The MAX1326ECM+ from Maxim Integrated is a 2-channel, 14-bit simultaneous-sampling analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with ±10V input range and ±16.5V fault-tolerant inputs. It achieves 2.5µs conversion time for two channels and delivers 250ksps throughput per channel. Featuring independent track/hold circuitry, 10MHz input bandwidth, and internal +2.5V reference, it serves high-precision industrial data acquisition in motor control and power-grid monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1326ECM+ datasheet, MAX1326ECM+ pinout, MAX1326ECM+ application, or MAX1326ECM+ equivalent, key selection criteria include bipolar ±10V full-scale range, channel-to-channel T/H matching of 50ps, 76.5dB SINAD at 100kHz, 48-pin LQFP package compatibility, and support for internal/external clock and reference configurations.
Technical Context
This ADC employs independent track-and-hold amplifiers per channel to preserve phase coherence across sampled signals-critical for multiphase waveform analysis. Its architecture supports simultaneous sampling of both channels with aperture delay of 16ns (typ) and aperture-jitter of 50ps RMS.
The device uses a 14-bit parallel interface operating up to 16.6MHz, with configurable digital supply (2.7V–5.25V) separate from analog supply (4.75V–5.25V). Internal reference (2.475V–2.525V) and external reference support (2.0V–3.0V) enable flexible system-level voltage scaling and calibration strategies.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel, 14-bit, simultaneous-sampling ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS8556IPMR | 6-channel, 16-bit, ±10V input, SPI interface, 500ksps/ch, higher power (95mW) | Higher resolution but serial interface increases host CPU load; no parallel bus for deterministic timing | Select when 16-bit resolution and >250ksps/ch throughput outweigh parallel interface needs |
| AD7606BSTZ | 8-channel, 16-bit, ±10V input, parallel interface, 200ksps/ch, integrated analog front-end | More channels but lower per-channel throughput; includes PGA and anti-alias filter | Select when system requires ≥4 channels or built-in signal conditioning, accepting 50ksps lower throughput |
Compared with MAX1326ECM+, ADS8556IPMR trades parallel simplicity for higher resolution and channel count via SPI, while AD7606BSTZ offers greater integration at the cost of reduced dual-channel speed-making MAX1326ECM+ optimal for compact, timing-critical dual-sensor systems requiring minimal latency and deterministic readout.

FAQ
What is the maximum sample rate per channel for the MAX1326ECM+?
The MAX1326ECM+ achieves 250ksps per channel when operating all two enabled channels simultaneously. This is measured with an external 10MHz clock and reflects sustained throughput under full-load conditions, including setup, conversion, and data readout timing margins.
Does the MAX1326ECM+ require external calibration for production use?
No, the MAX1326ECM+ does not require external calibration. It features factory-trimmed performance with guaranteed ±1.5 LSB INL and ±1 LSB DNL across temperature, eliminating field calibration steps in end equipment manufacturing and reducing test time.
Can the MAX1326ECM+ accept ±10V inputs directly without external level-shifting?
Yes, the MAX1326ECM+ supports a native ±10V bipolar input range. Its analog inputs are designed for direct connection to industrial sensors and transducers delivering ±10V signals, with no external op-amp or resistor network needed for scaling.
What is the purpose of the MSV pin on the MAX1326ECM+?
On the MAX1326ECM+, the MSV (Midscale Voltage) pin must be connected directly to AGND. This differs from unipolar variants (e.g., MAX1316) that require capacitor bypassing. Correct MSV grounding ensures proper biasing of the internal analog front-end for bipolar ±10V operation.
How does the MAX1326ECM+ handle fault conditions on its analog inputs?
The MAX1326ECM+ provides ±16.5V fault tolerance on CH0 and CH1. This protection remains active during normal operation and allows the device to survive transient overvoltages-such as those induced by switching inductors or lightning surges-without latch-up or parametric shift.
