MAX1011
External Clock Operation
To accommodate designs that use an external clock,
the MAX1011’s internal oscillator can be overdriven by
an external clock source (Figure 7). The external clock
source should be a sinusoid to minimize clock phase
noise and jitter, which can degrade the ADC’s ENOB
performance. AC couple the clock source (recom-
mended voltage level is approximately 1Vp-p) to the
oscillator inputs (Figure 7).
Output Data Format
The conversion results are output on a 6-bit-wide data
bus. Data is latched into the ADC output latch following
a pipeline delay of one clock cycle (Figure 8). Output
data is clocked out of the ADC’s data output pins (D0
through D5) on the rising edge of the clock output
(DCLK), with a DCLK-to-data propagation delay (t
PD
) of
3.0ns. The MAX1011 outputs are +3.3V CMOS-logic
compatible.
Transfer Function
Figure 9 shows the MAX1011’s nominal transfer function.
Output coding is offset binary with 1LSB = FSR / 63.
___________Applications Information
The MAX1011 is designed with separate analog and
digital power-supply and ground connections to isolate
high-current digital noise spikes from the more sensi-
tive analog circuitry. The high-current digital output
ground (OGND) and analog ground (GND) should be
at the same DC level, connected at only one location
on the board. This will provide best noise immunity and
improved conversion accuracy. Use of separate
ground planes is strongly recommended.
The entire board needs good DC bypassing for both
analog and digital supplies. Place the power-supply
bypass capacitors close to where the power is routed
onto the board, i.e., close to the connector. 10µF elec-
trolytic capacitors with low-ESR ratings are recom-
mended. For best effective bits performance, minimize
capacitive loading at the digital outputs. Keep the digi-
tal output traces as short as possible.
The MAX1011 requires a +5V ±5% power supply for
the analog supply (V
CC
) and a +3.3V ±300mV power
supply connected to V
CCO
for the logic outputs.
Bypass each of the V
CC
supply pins to its respective
GND with high-quality ceramic capacitors located as
close to the package as possible (Table 2). Consult the
evaluation kit manual for a suggested layout and
bypassing scheme.
