MAX198AENI Descripción general
A Data Acquisition System (DAS) is a mixed-signal integrated circuit that combines an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), input multiplexer, sample-and-hold, reference, and bus interface in one package. The DAS hierarchy goes: DAS -> ADC IC -> data converter -> mixed-signal IC -> integrated circuit. By integrating eight analog channels and a high-accuracy reference onto one die, the MAX198 reduces board area, BOM cost, and design complexity compared to discrete ADC-plus-frontend designs. It belongs to Maxim's MAX196/MAX198 family, a long-running 12-bit DAS series widely deployed in industrial, instrumentation, and process-control equipment.
Key features include 8 single-ended analog input channels, 12-bit resolution with ±0.5 LSB (max) relative accuracy, ±4.18 V bipolar input range, and 100 ksps sampling rate. The MAX198AENI supports 2.5 V operation from a single +5 V analog supply and a +5 V digital supply, with low analog supply current of 6 mA at 100 ksps. Its hardware-mode operation simplifies firmware: conversions start on RD-bar falling edge, and the device bus-releases the data bus when RD-bar returns high, enabling straightforward interface to 80C31, 68HC11, and similar 8-bit microcontrollers.
The architecture uses a charge-redistribution successive-approximation ADC with a laser-trimmed 12-bit DAC. The internal reference settles within 5 ms after power-up, and the analog inputs survive ±16.5 V overvoltage without damage. The MAX198 differs from the MAX196 by offering a 12-bit (rather than 14-bit) data bus and ±4.18 V input range rather than the 0 to 5 V / ±5 V ranges of related parts.
Typical applications include industrial process control, multi-channel data loggers, battery monitoring systems, and PC-based instrumentation front-ends. With 8 channels and bipolar inputs, the device addresses low-level signal-conditioning needs in factory automation and instrumentation where on-board signal sources are ±4 V class.

Aplicaciones típicas
MAX198AENI es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: Industrial Process Control, Multi-Channel Data Logger, PC-Based Instrumentation Front End, Battery Cell Monitoring, Medical Monitoring and Diagnostic Equipment, Test Equipment and Benchtop Instrumentation.
Industrial Process Control
The MAX198AENI suits industrial process control because it integrates 8 single-ended analog channels with ±4.18 V bipolar input and a factory-trimmed 4.18 V reference on a single IC, eliminating external signal-conditioning for many PLC and DCS analog front ends. Eight channels let one MAX198AENI digitize thermocouple-amplifier outputs, pressure transducers, and 4-20 mA-shunt voltages simultaneously, while its 100 ksps rate handles multichannel multiplexing without aliasing in slow process loops. The ±16.5 V overvoltage tolerance survives 24 V field-wiring transients common in factories, and 6 mA analog supply current keeps dissipation modest in DIN-rail backplanes. Hardware-mode read timing simplifies interface to legacy industrial microcontrollers like 80C31/80C51 with no firmware-driven conversion start.
Recomendado
Multi-Channel Data Logger
The MAX198AENI is well-suited for battery-powered multi-channel data loggers because its 6 mA analog supply current at 100 ksps keeps average power low in duty-cycled logging applications. With 8 single-ended inputs, a complete 8-parameter data-acquisition card fits in one DIP-28 socket, reducing BOM count to about 10 parts (analog input dividers, bypass caps, decoupling, MCU). The internal 4.18 V reference is factory-trimmed to ±1%, so external references are unnecessary for 12-bit accuracy, saving power and board space. The hardware-mode read-cycle operation lets the logger's microcontroller enter sleep between conversions, awakening only to read one frame of 12-bit data via bus release on RD-bar rising. The ±16.5 V overvoltage protection prevents damage from sensor miswiring during field deployment.
Recomendado
PC-Based Instrumentation Front End
For PC-based instrumentation and ISA/PCI data-acquisition cards, the MAX198AENI's 12-bit parallel bus interface, hardware-mode timing, and 100 ksps rate align with ISA-bus DMA transfer speeds and PnP enumeration patterns. The 8 channels give a 19-slot ISA card 16 differential/8 single-ended channels using two MAX198AENIs with no FPGA needed for timing, since conversions trigger on RD-bar falling edge and data is valid by the access-time deadline. The 4.18 V internal reference trims to ±1%, so calibration software in the host driver compensates for full-scale and offset. ±16.5 V overvoltage tolerance lets the card share connector backplanes with motor-control outputs without damage during prototype bring-up.
Recomendado
Battery Cell Monitoring
The MAX198AENI handles multi-cell battery monitoring by digitizing up to 8 cell voltages (each at ±4.18 V full scale) via single-ended channels while the internal 4.18 V reference serves as the ADC reference. With 12-bit resolution, each channel resolves ~2 mV per LSB (4.18 V / 4096 ≈ 1.02 mV/bit), sufficient for state-of-charge estimates on Li-ion cells. The 100 ksps rate samples 8 cells at 12.5 kHz, well above the fastest cell-balancing-control loop, leaving headroom for advanced multiplexing. ±16.5 V overvoltage tolerance is critical for handling transient voltages during cell-switching events. The 28-pin PDIP footprint keeps battery-management boards easy to prototype and modify.
Recomendado
Medical Monitoring and Diagnostic Equipment
In medical monitoring equipment like patient-side ECG/blood-pressure modules, the MAX198AENI provides 8 single-ended analog inputs for digitizing electrode amplifier outputs, temperature sensors, and flow-meter transducers simultaneously at 100 ksps aggregate. The internal 4.18 V reference trims to ±1% and tracks at 35 ppm/°C max, sufficient for long-term calibration stability in clinical settings. The 12-bit/100ksps rate captures ECG waveforms at 12.5 ksps per channel with comfortable margin for higher-frequency transients. Hardware-mode read timing enables low-latency interrupt-driven reading with no firmware overhead, critical for alarm latency in patient monitoring. ±16.5 V overvoltage tolerance protects against defibrillator discharge transients on adjacent connectors.
Recomendado
Test Equipment and Benchtop Instrumentation
The MAX198AENI addresses test-equipment and benchtop instrumentation with 8 simultaneously accessible analog channels and ±4.18 V bipolar input, ideal for digitizing signals from bench multimeters, arbitrary waveform generator outputs, or transducer test fixtures. The hardware-mode timing allows one RTOS-driven control loop to acquire 8 channels in a tight 80 µs window (8 × 10 µs at 100 ksps), well matched to PC-based bench data displays. The 28-pin PDIP package simplifies hand-prototype rework and pin-drivers, key features in lab environments where engineers swap parts by hand. The 4.18 V internal reference trims to ±1% for repeatable measurements, and external buffering is unnecessary because the device drives up to 5 mA of bus capacitance for reliable 80-series microprocessor interface timing.

Notas de diseño
Decouple the +5 V analog supply (VDD, pin 17) with a 10 µF tantalum and 0.1 µF ceramic placed within 5 mm of the VDD pin, and the VLOGIC supply (pin 1) with separate 1 µF and 0.1 µF capacitors tied between pin 1 and digital ground. The -5 V VSS supply (pin 18) supplies the bipolar input signal path; bypass it with a 1 µF/0.1 µF pair to analog ground. Sharing VSS and VDD return paths through ground noise can dominate ADC error, so star-route VSS, VDD, and GND at one point.
Route analog input traces (AIN0-AIN7) away from the digital bus DB0-DB11 and the clock pin. Keep the analog input trace length under 50 mm and use a guard trace or ground pour to limit digital-noise coupling. Place a 100 Ω series resistor and 100 pF shunt capacitor on each analog input if signal sources are piezoelectric or other high-impedance transducers, to damp high-frequency resonance that alias signals into the conversion bandwidth at 100 ksps.
Do not exceed ±16.5 V on any analog input pin while the device is powered; sustained overvoltage without current limiting can damage the input multiplexer. The 4.18 V internal reference is shared with the analog front-end - if you plan to feed an external reference, let REF settle for 5 ms after power-up and buffer it with an op-amp if multiple loads are connected. RD-bar falling edge begins the conversion; hold RD-bar low until INT-bar falls or count to ~10 µs to guarantee conversion completion at 100 ksps.
