MAX186CCPP+ 12-Bit, 8-Channel, Low-Power Serial Data Acquisition System (DIP-20)

Description

The MAX186CCPP+ is a high-performance 12-bit data acquisition system that integrates an 8-channel multiplexer, high-bandwidth track/hold circuitry, and a high-speed serial interface. Designed for precision and power efficiency, this device operates on a single +5V or dual ±5V supply, offering software-configurable analog inputs (unipolar/bipolar and single-ended/differential) to accommodate diverse signal types.

The 4-wire serial interface is natively compatible with SPI, QSPI, and MICROWIRE standards, allowing for seamless integration with microcontrollers and digital signal processors like the TMS320 family. With an internal 4.096V reference and advanced power-down modes, the MAX186CCPP+ can achieve ultra-low supply currents, making it ideal for battery-powered, portable applications where high-accuracy data logging is essential.
