    General Description

    T he M A X 110/M A X 111 analog-to-dig ital converters

    (A D C s) use an internal auto-calibration technique to

    achieve 14-bit resolution plus overrange, with no exter-

    nal comp onents. O perating supply current is only

    550A (M A X110) and reduces to 4A in power-down

    mode, making these AD C s ideal for high-resolution bat-

    tery-powered or remote-sensing applications. A fast

    serial interface simplifies signal routing and opto-isola-

    tion, saves microcontroller pins, and offers compatibility

    with SPI , Q SPI , and M ICRO WIRE . The MA X110

    operates with 5V supplies, and converts differential

    analog signals in the -3V to +3V range. The M A X111

    operates with a single + 5V supply and converts differ-

    ential analog signals in the 1.5V range, or single-

    ended signals in the 0V to +1.5V range.

    Internal calibration allows for both offset and gain-error

    correction under microprocessor (P) control. Both

    devices are available in space-saving 16-pin D IP and

    SO packages, as well as an even smaller 20-pin SSO P

    package.

    Note 10: T imi ng specifications are guaranteed by design. A ll input control signals are specified with tr = tf= 5ns(10% to 90% of +5V) and timed from a + 1.6V voltage level.

    Note 1: These speci fications app ly after auto-null and gain calibration. P erformance at power-supply tolerance limits is guaranteed

    by power-supply rejection tests. Tests are performed at VD D = 5V and VSS = -5V (M AX110).Note 2: 32,768 LSBs cover an input voltage range of VR EF (15 bits). A n additional bit (O FL) is set for VIN > VR EF.Note 3: G uaranteed by design. N ot subject to production testing.Note 4: D NL i s less than 2 counts (LSBs) out of 215 counts (14 bits) . T he major source of DN L is noise, and this can be further

    improved by averaging.

    Note 5: See 3-Step C alibrationsection in text.Note 6: VR EF = (VREF+ - VREF-) , V IN = (V IN1+ - V IN1-) or (V IN2+ - VIN2-). The voltage is interpreted as negative when the voltage at

    the negative input terminal exceeds the voltage at the positive input terminal.

    Note 7: C onversion time is set by control bits C O N V1C O NV4.Note 8: Tested at clock frequency of 1M Hz with the divide-by-2 mode ( i.e. oversampling clock of 500kH z). See Typical O perating

    C haracteristicssection for the effect of other clock frequencies. A lso read the C lock Frequencysection.

    Note 9: This current depends strongly on CXCLK (see Applications Informationsection).

    _______________Detailed Description

    T he M A X110/M A X111 AD C converts low-frequency

    analog signals to a 16-bit serial digital output (14 data

    bits, a sign bit, and an overrange bit) using a first-order

    sigma-delta loop (Figure 1). The differential input volt-

    age is internally connected to a precision voltage-to-current converter. T he resulting current is integrated

    and applied to a comparator. The comparator output

    then drives an up/down counter and a 1-bit DA C . When

    the D AC output is fed back to the integrator input, the

    sigma-delta loop is completed.

    During a conversion, the comparator output is a VREF-to VREF+ square wave; its duty cycle is proportional to

    the magnitude of the differential input voltage applied

    to the AD C . T he up/down counter clocks data in from

    the comparator at the oversampling clock rate and

    averages the pulse-width-modulated (P WM ) square

    wave to produce the conversion result. A 16-bit static

    shift register stores the result at the end of the conver-

    sion. Figure 2 shows the AD C waveforms for a differen-

    tial analog input equal to 1/2 (V REF+ - VREF-) . Theresulting comparator and 1-bit D A C outputs are high

    for seven cycles and low for three cycles of the over-

    sampling clock.

    Since the analog input signal is integrated over many

    clock cycles, much of the signal and quantization noise

    is attenuated. The more clock cycles allowed during

    each conversion, the greater the noise attenuation (see

    Programming C onversion Time) .

    Oversampling ClockXC LK internally connects to a clock-frequency divider

    network, whose output is the AD C oversampling clock,fO SC . T his allows the selected clock source ( internal R C

    oscillator or external clock applied to XC LK ) to be

    divided by one, two, or four (see C lock D ivider-R atio

    C ontrol Bits) .

    Figure 3 shows the two methods for providing the over-

    sampling clock to the M A X110/M A X111. In external-

    clock mode ( Figure 3a), the internal R C oscillator is

    disabled and XC LK accepts a TT L/CM O S-level clock to

    provide the oversampling clock to the A D C .

    Select external-clock mode (Figure 3a) by connecting

    RC SEL to G ND and a TT L/CM O S-compatible clock to

    X C L K ( s e e Select ing the O versampl ing C lock

    Frequency) .

    In RC -oscillator mode ( Figure 3b), the internal RC oscil-

    lator is active and i ts output is connected to XC LK

    (Figure 1). Select RC -oscillator mode by connecting

    RCSEL to VDD . This enables the internal oscillator and

    connects it to XC LK for use by the AD C and external

    system components. M inimize the capacitive loading on

    XC LK when using the internal RC oscillator.

    ADC OperationThe output data from the M AX110/M AX111 is arranged

    in twos-complement format (Figures 4, 5). The sign bit

    (PO L) is shifted out first, followed by the overrange bit

    (O R ) , and the 14 data bits (M SB first) (see Figure 6) .

    The M AX110 operates from 5V power supplies andconverts low-frequency analog signa ls in the 3V

    range when using the maximum reference voltage of

    VREF = 3V (VREF = VREF+ - VREF-). Within the 3V input

    range, greater accuracy is obtained within 2.5V (see

    Electrical C haracteristicsfor details). Note that a nega-

    tive input voltage is defined as V IN - > V IN + . For the

    M AX110, the absolute voltage at any analog input pin

    must remain within the (VSS + 2.25V) to (VDD - 2.25V)

    range.

    The M AX111 operates from a single +5V supply and

    converts low-frequency differential analog signals in the

    1.5V range when using the maximum reference volt-

    age of VR EF = 1.5V. A s indicated in the Electrical

    C haracteristics, greater accuracy is achieved within the1.2V range. The absolute voltage at any analog input

    pin for the M AX111 must remain within 0V to VDD - 3.2V.

    When V IN - > V IN + the input is interpreted as negative.

    The overrange bit (O FL) is provided to sense when the

    input voltage level has exceeded the reference voltage

    level. T he converter does not saturate until the input

    voltage is typically 20% larger. The linearity is not guar-

    anteed in this range. N ote that the overrange bi t works

    properly if the reference voltage remains within the rec-

    ommended voltage range (see Reference Inputs). If the

    reference voltage exceeds the recommended input

    range, the overrange bit may not operate properly.

    Digital InterfaceStarting a Conversion

    D ata is transferred into and out of the serial I/O shiftregister by pulling CS low and applying a serial clockat SC LK . T his fully static shift register allows SC LK to

    range from D C to 2M Hz. O utput data from the AD C is

    clocked out on SC LK s falling edge and should be read

    on SCL K s rising edge. Input data to the AD C at DIN is

    clocked in on SC LK s rising edge. A new conversion

    begins when CS returns high, provided the M SB in theinput control word (NO-OP) is a 1 (see U sing theM AX110/M AX 111 with M IC RO WIRE, SPI , and Q SPI

    Serial Interfaces). Figure 6 shows the detailed serial-

    interface timing diagram.

    CS must remain high during the conversion (whileBUSYremains low) . Bringing CS low during the conver-

    sion causes the A D C to stop converting, and mayresult in erroneous output data.

    Using the MAX110/MAX111 with SPI, QSPI, andMICROWIRE Serial Interfaces

    Figure 7 shows the most common serial-interface con-

    nections. The M A X110/M A X111 are compatible with

    SP I, Q SP I (CPHA = 0, CPO L = 0) , and M IC RO WIRE

    serial-interface standards.

    The AD C serial interface operates with just SC LK , D IN ,

    and D O U T (allow sufficient time for the conversion to

    complete between read/write operations). Achieve con-

    tinuous operation by connecting BUSYto an uncommit-ted P I/O or interrupt, to signal the processor when the

    conversion results are ready. Figures 8a and 8b showthe timing for SPI/M IC RO WIRE and Q SPI operation.

    T he fully static 16-bi t I/O register allows infinite time

    between the two 8-bit read/write operations necessary

    to obtain the full 16 bits of data with SPI and

    M I C R O W I R E . CS must remain low during the entiretwo-byte transfer (Figure 8a) . Q SP I allows a full 16-bit

    data transfer (Figure 8b).

    Interfacing to the 80C32 Microcontroller FamilyFigure 7c shows the general 80C 32 connection to the

    M AX110/M AX111 using Port 1. For a more detailed dis-

    cussion, see the M AX110 evaluation kit manual.

    I/O Shift RegisterSerial data transfer is accomplished with a 16-bit fullystatic shift register. T he 16-bit control word shifted into

    this register during a data-transfer operation controls

    the A D C s various functions. T he M SB (NO -OP)enables/disables transfer of the control word within the

    AD C . A logic 1 causes the remaining 15 bits in the con-

    trol word to be transferred from the I/O register into the

    control register when CS goes high, updating theAD C s configuration and starting a new conversion. I f

    NO-OP is a zero, the control word is not transferred tothe control register, the AD C s configuration remains

    unchanged, and no new conversion is initiated. This

    allows specific AD C s in a daisy chain arrangement tobe reconfigured while leaving the remai ning AD C s

    unchanged. T able 1 lists the various AD C control word

    functions.

    O utput data is shifted out of DO U T at the same time the

    input control word for the next conversion is shifted in

    (Figure 8).

    O n power-up, all internal registers reset to zero.

    T herefore, when writing the first control word to the

    ADC , the data simultaneously shifted out will be zeros.

    The first conversion begins when CSgoes high (NO-OP= 1). The results are placed in the 16-bit I /O register for

    access on the next data-transfer operation.

    Power-Down ModeBits 0 and 1 control the AD C s power-down mode. I f bit

    PD and PDX are a logic high, or if PD is high and

    RC SEL is low, the supply currents reduce to 4A. I f an

    external XC LK clock continues to run in power-down

    mode, the supply current will depend on the clock rate.

    When PD X is set high, the internal RC oscillator stops

    shortly after CS returns high. If the next control wordwritten to the device has NO-OP = 1 instructing the

    AD C to convert, B U SY will go low, but because the RCoscillator is stopped, BU SY will remain low and will not

    allow a new conversion to begin. To avoid this situation,

    write a dummy control word with NO-OP= 0 and anycombination of bits 14-0 in the control word following

    the control word with PD X = 0. With NO-OP= 0, bits 14-0 are ignored and the internal state machine resets.

    Next, perform a normal 3-step calibration (see Table 3).

    N ote that XC LK must be connected to VD D or GN D

    through a resistor (suggested value is 1M ) when the

    R C oscillator mode is selected (R C SEL = VD D ). This

    resistor is not necessary if the external oscillator mode

    is used, or if the internal oscillator is not shut down.

    Selecting the Analog InputsBit 4 (C HS) controls which of the two differential inputs

    connect to the internal AD C inputs (see the Functional

    Diagram) . A logic high selects IN2+ and IN 2- while a

    logic low selects IN 1+ and I N 1-. T able 2 shows the

    allowable input multiplexer configurations.

    3-Step Calibration

    T he data sheet electrical specifications apply to thedevice after optional calibration of gain error and offset.

    U ncalibrated, the gain error is typically 2% .

    Table 3 describes the three steps required to calibrate

    the AD C completely.

    O nce the AD C is calibrated to the selected channel, set

    C AL = 0 and NU L = 0 and leave CH S unchanged in the

    next control word to perform a signal conversion on the

    selected analog input channel.

    C alibrate the AD C after the following operations:

    when power is first applied

    if the reference common-mode voltage changes

    if the common-mode voltage of the selected inputchannel varies significantly. T he C M RR of the analog

    inputs is 0.25LSB/V.

    after changing channels (if the common-mode volt-

    ages of the two channels are different)

    after changing conversion speed/resolution.

    after significant changes in temperature. The offset

    drift with temperature is typically 0.003V/C .

    Automatic gain calibration is not allowed in the

    102,400 cycles per conversion mode (seeProgramming Conversion Time). In this mode, calibra-

    tion can be achieved by connecting the reference volt-

    age to one input channel and performing a normal

    conversion. Subsequent conversion results can be cor-

    rected by software. Do not issue a NO-OP commanddirectly following the gain calibration, as the cali-bration data will be lost.

    Programming Conversion TimeThe M AX110/M AX111 are specified for 12 bits of accu-

    racy and up to 14 bits of resolution. T he ADC s resolu-

    tion depends on the number of clock cycles allowed

    during ea ch conversion. C ontrol-register bi ts 912

    (C O N V1CO N V4) determine the conversion time by

    controlling the nominal number of oversampling clock

    cycles required for each conversion (O SC C /C O N V) .

    Table 4 lists the available conversion times and result-

    ing resolutions.

    To program a new conversion time, perform a 3-step

    calibration with the appropriate C O N V1C O N V4 data

    used in T able 3. The ADC is now calibrated at the new

    conversion speed/resolution.

    Selecting the OversamplingClock Frequency

    C hoose the oversampling frequency, fO SC , carefully to

    achieve the best relative-accuracy performance from the

    M AX110/M AX111 (see Typical O perating Characteristics) .

    Clock Divider-Ratio Control BitsBi ts 7 and 8 ( D V2 and D V4) program the clock-

    frequency divider network. The divider network sets the

    frequency ratio between fXCLK (the frequency of theexternal TT L/C M O S clock or internal RC oscillator) and

    fO SC ( the oversampling frequency used by the AD C ) .

    An oversampling clock frequency between 450kH z and

    700kH z is optimum for the converter. Best perfor-mance over the extended temperature range isobtained by choosing 1MHz or 1.024MHz with thedivide-by-2 option (DV2 = 1) (see the section Effectof Dither on INL). To determine the converters accura-cy at other clock frequencies, see the Typical

    O perating C haracteristicsand Table 5.

    Effect of Dither on Relative AccuracyFirst-order sigma-delta converters require dither for

    randomizing any systematic tone being generated in

    the modulator. The frequency of the dither source playsan important role in linearizing the modulator. The ratio

    of the dither generators frequency to that of the modu-

    lators oversampling clock can be changed by setting

    the DV2/DV4 bits. T he XC LK clock is directly used by

    the dither generator while the DV2/DV4 b its reduce the

    oversampling clock by a ratio of 2 or 4. O ver the com-

    mercial temperature range, any ratio (i.e., 1, 2, or 4)

    between the dither frequency and the oversampling

    clock frequency can be used for best performance.

    O ver the extended and mi litary temperature ranges, the

    ratio of 2 or 4 gives the best performance. See the

    Typical O perating C haracteristicsto observe the effect

    of the clock divider on the converters linearity.

    50Hz/60Hz Line Frequency RejectionH igh rejection of 50Hz or 60Hz is obtained by using an

    oversampling clock frequency and a clock-cycles/con-

    version setting so the conversion time equals an inte-gral number of line cycles, as in the following equation:

    fO SC = fLINE x m / n

    where fO SC is the oversampling clock frequency, fLINE= 50Hz or 60Hz, m is the number of clock cycles per

    conversion (see Table 4), and n is the number of line

    cycles averaged every conversion.

    This noise rejection is inherent in integrating and

    sigma-delta A D C s, and follows a SIN (X) / X function

    (Figure 9) . Notches in this function represent extremely

    high rejection, and correspond to frequencies with an

    integral number of cycles in the M A X110/M A X111s

    selected conversion time.

    T he shortest conversion time resulting in maximumsimultaneous rejection of both 60Hz and 50Hz line fre-

    quencies is 100ms. When using the M A X111, use a

    200ms conversion time for maximum 60Hz and 50Hz

    rejection and optimum performance. For either device,select the appropriate oversampling clock frequency

    and either an 81,240 or 102,400 clock cycles per con-

    version (C C PC ) ratio. T able 6 suggests the possible

    configurations.

    A 100ms conversion time cannot be achieved with either

    10,240 C C PC or 20,480 C C PC modes because fO SCwould be below the minimum 250kHz requirement.

    When the gain calibration is performed, the conversion

    times change approximately 1% to compensate for the

    modulators gain error. This slightly degrades the line-

    frequency rejection, because the corrected conversion

    time is no longer an exact multiple of the line frequency.Typically, the rejection of 50Hz/60Hz from the converter

    is 55dB; i.e., if there is 100mV injection at the reference

    or the analog input pin, it will cause an uncertainty of

    0.006% . If the system has large 50Hz/60Hz noise, the

    use of internal auto gain calibration is not recommend-

    ed. Instead, gain calibration should be done off-chip,

    using numerical computation methods.

    If you wish to use a configuration other than those sug-

    gested in Table 6, you can accomplish similar 50Hz

    and 60Hz line-frequency rejection off-chip by averag-

    ing several conversions.

    __________Applications Information

    Layout, Grounding, Bypassing

    For minimal noise, bypass each supply to G ND with a0.1F capacitor. A ground plane should also be placed

    under the analog circuitry. To minimize the coupling

    effects of stray capacitance, keep digital lines as far

    from analog components and lines as possible. Figure

    Capacitive Loading Effects of XCLK in

    Internal RC-Oscillator ModeWhen using the internal RC oscillator, capacitive load-

    ing effects on the XC LK pin must be minimized. Stray

    capacitance causes the VD D power consumption to

    increase by an amount p = 12C V2f, where C = stray

    capacitance, V is the supply voltage, and f is the fre-

    quency of the internal R C oscillator.

    External ReferenceThe reference inputs to the ADC are high impedance,

    allowing both an external voltage reference and ratio-

    metric applications without loading effects. T he fully dif-

    ferential analog signal and reference inputs are

    advantageous for performing ratiometric conversions

    (Figures 11 and 12). For example, when measuring

    load cells, the bridge excitation and the AD C referenceinput both share the same voltage source. A s the exci-

    tation changes with temperature or voltage, the output

    of the load cell will change. But since the differential

    reference voltage also changes, the conversion results

    remain constant, all else remaining equal.

    Weigh Scale Application

    The fully differential analog signal and reference inputsmake the M AX111 easy to interface to transducers with

    differential outputs, such as the load cell in Figure 11.

    Because the ADC input is differential, the load cell only

    requires differential gain, eliminating the need for the

    difference amplifier (differential to single-ended con-

    verter) of the standard three op-amp instrumentation-

    amplifier realization.

    The 30mV full-scale bridge output is amplified to 2V

    full-scale and ap plied to the M A X111 channel-one

    input. The reference voltage to the AD C is created by a

    voltage divider connected to the + 5V rail. T he same 5V

    provides excitation for the bridge; therefore, as the

    excitation voltage varies, the reference voltage to the

    AD C also varies, providing an AD C output that doesnot depend on the supply voltage.

    The two 121k resistors connected to the +5V supplies

    shift the common-mode voltage from 2.5V (5V/2) to

    1.5V to ensure linearity. M atch these two resistors to

    avoid introducing differential offset, or trim the resistor

    mismatch with a potentiometer. In practice, the scale is

    zeroed or tared by storing the average of several

    conversions in a memory location while the scale is

    Thermocouple Circuit with SoftwareCompensation

    A thermocouple is created by the junction of dissimilar

    metals, and generates a voltage proportional to temper-

    ature (Seebeck voltage), making it useful for tempera-

    ture-measurement instruments. When a thermocouple

    probe is connected to a measurement instrument, other

    thermoelectric potentials are created between the alloys

    of the probe and the copper connectors of the instru-

    ment. T hese potentials introduce a temperature-depen-dent error that must be subtracted from the temperature

    measurement to obtain an accurate result. According to

    the law of intermediate metals, the junction of the ther-

    mocouple-probe alloys with the copper of the instrument

    junction block can be treated as another thermocouple

    of the same type. The voltage measured by the instru-

    ment can be expressed as:

    V = (T1 - TREF)

    where

    is the Seebeck constant for the type of thermo-couple, T1 is the temperature being measured, and

    TREF is the temperature of the junction block. A lthough

    one method to obtain T REF is to force the junction block

    to a known temperature ( 0C ) , a more popular

    approach is to measure TREF directly using a thermistor

    or PN junction voltage.

    The circuit in Figure 12 shows a k-type thermocouple

    going through a 54dB gain stage to channel 1 of the

    M A X110. A M AX874 voltage reference provides both

    the 3V reference voltage and reference junction tem-

    perature information to the M A X110. A rmed with the

    temperature information provided by the M AX874, the

    thermocouple voltage created at the junction block can

    be subtracted out in software. The TEM P output of theM AX874 is nominally 690mV at room temperature, and

    increases with temperature at about 2.3mV/C . Place

    the M AX874 as close as possible to the terminal block,

    and ensure good thermal contact between them. This

    circuit employs a common k-type thermocouple and,

    with the component values shown, can indicate tem-

    peratures in the range of -150C to +125C .
