MAX187BEWE 概要

The Maxim Integrated MAX187BEWE is a +5V, low-power, 12-bit successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) with a 75 ksps throughput rate, an internal 4.096 V buffered reference, and a 3-wire SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface, packaged in a 16-pin WSOIC (wide-body SOIC). It accepts a 0V to 5V analog input range, integrates a 1.5 us track-and-hold, and draws only 1.5 mA operating current with a 2 uA shutdown mode for battery-friendly designs.

A SAR ADC is a successive-approximation-register analog-to-digital converter that resolves one bit per clock cycle using a comparator, a DAC, and a binary-search register, trading conversion speed for excellent static accuracy and very low power consumption. In a typical signal chain, the SAR ADC sits between the analog front end (sensor + signal conditioning) and the digital controller (microcontroller, FPGA, DSP), translating real-world analog signals into 12-bit digital codes that downstream firmware can process. The MAX187's wide-SOIC pinout, internal reference, and serial interface made it a workhorse ADC of the 1990s and 2000s for industrial, instrumentation, and data-acquisition designs.

Key differentiating features include 12-bit resolution with ±1/2 LSB integral nonlinearity (INL) on the B-grade, internal 4.096 V reference (MAX187 only; MAX189 requires external reference), single +5V supply operation, hardware- or software-controlled shutdown, and a high-speed 3-wire serial interface that simplifies opto-isolation in noisy industrial environments. Compared to the older MAX176/MAX186 family, the MAX187 reduces operating current and adds an internal reference, simplifying BOM cost.

Typical applications include portable data loggers, battery-powered instrumentation, isolated sensor front ends using SPI over optocouplers, process-control analog I/O modules, panel meters, and pen/strain-gauge digitizers. The 75 ksps rate covers most 4-20 mA loop, RTD, thermocouple, and general-purpose instrumentation sampling needs while the 2 uA shutdown extends battery life in handheld meters.

A critical design consideration is bypassing: place a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor close to VDD and a 4.7 uF tantalum/ceramic at REF, plus a 0.01 uF ceramic at the analog input pin to minimize conversion noise. The serial interface supports SPI modes CPOL=0/CPHA=0 and CPOL=1/CPHA=1, but the MAX187 requires a minimum SCLK period of 130 ns (max 7.6 MHz external clock) when using an external serial clock.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, same-brand and cross-brand drop-in alternatives, and practical design notes not found in the manufacturer datasheet, giving engineers a single source for parametric comparison and PCB-compatible substitution.

主な用途

MAX187BEWE の用途: 6 件s: Battery-Powered Portable Data Logger, Industrial Process Control Analog Input Module, Panel Meter and Digital Readout, Isolated Sensor Front End (Opto-Coupled SPI), Strain-Gauge and Load-Cell Digitizer, Thermocouple and RTD Temperature Measurement.

📱

Battery-Powered Portable Data Logger

The MAX187BEWE fits battery-powered portable data loggers because its 2 uA shutdown current and 1.5 mA active supply current extend battery life across long field deployments, while the internal 4.096 V reference eliminates the need for a separate reference IC that would otherwise drain the battery. Its 12-bit resolution at 75 ksps is sufficient for slow analog signals (temperature, pressure, humidity) sampled at sub-kHz rates. In a typical logger, the MAX187 sits between the sensor analog front end and a microcontroller's SPI port, capturing periodic readings into non-volatile memory. The 3-wire serial interface allows simple opto-isolation when the sensor must be physically separated from the digital section for safety or noise reasons.

🏭

Industrial Process Control Analog Input Module

For industrial process-control analog input modules that digitize 4-20 mA loop signals or thermocouple/RTD outputs, the MAX187BEWE provides 12-bit resolution at 75 ksps, sufficient for the bandwidth of slow process variables. Its wide -40C to +85C industrial temperature range suits factory-floor environments, and the 3-wire SPI interface enables opto-isolation to meet IEC 61010 high-voltage isolation requirements. The internal 4.096 V reference accommodates the 0-5V analog input range directly from most sensor signal-conditioning outputs. Compared to newer 16-bit ADCs, the MAX187 remains a cost-effective choice for legacy PLC and DCS analog I/O card designs where BOM cost dominates over resolution.

📺

Panel Meter and Digital Readout

Digital panel meters for voltage, current, temperature, or strain-gauge displays benefit from the MAX187BEWE's 12-bit resolution and 0-5V input range that directly interfaces with most analog sensor outputs after signal conditioning. The 75 ksps sampling rate allows fast update rates for transient voltage or current readings, while the internal 4.096 V reference simplifies calibration by providing a known conversion factor (1 LSB = 4.096 V / 4096 = 1 mV). The 16-pin WSOIC package is easy to hand-solder for prototype meter designs and is rugged enough for industrial panel mounting. The shutdown pin can be used to power-cycle the ADC between readings, extending meter battery life in handheld instruments.

🔧

Isolated Sensor Front End (Opto-Coupled SPI)

The MAX187BEWE's 3-wire serial interface (CS/SCLK/DOUT) makes it ideally suited for isolated sensor front ends where high-voltage isolation between the analog sensor side and the digital controller is required for safety. Only three high-speed optocouplers are needed to cross the isolation barrier, dramatically reducing BOM cost versus parallel-interface ADCs that need 12 optos. The 75 ksps rate supports most industrial sensor bandwidths (strain gauges, pressure transducers, current shunts). The internal 4.096 V reference means the sensor side needs only the MAX187 plus a few bypass capacitors, keeping the isolated side simple and minimizing creepage/clearance issues on the PCB.

⚡

Strain-Gauge and Load-Cell Digitizer

For digitizing strain-gauge and load-cell bridge outputs in weighing scales and force measurement systems, the MAX187BEWE offers 12-bit resolution with 1 LSB matching 1 mV when referenced to the internal 4.096 V reference, providing enough dynamic range for many industrial scale designs. The 75 ksps throughput allows oversampling and averaging for higher effective resolution, improving noise performance beyond the 12-bit native spec. The wide SOIC package is mechanically robust for industrial scale electronics, and the SPI interface connects directly to microcontrollers that perform calibration, temperature compensation, and digital filtering. The 2 uA shutdown mode is useful for battery-powered portable scales.

🌡️

Thermocouple and RTD Temperature Measurement

The MAX187BEWE digitizes thermocouple and RTD temperature sensor outputs in industrial and laboratory instrumentation, where its 12-bit resolution and 75 ksps sampling allow accurate cold-junction-compensated temperature readings after linearization. The internal 4.096 V reference handles the small thermocouple voltages (typically +/-10 mV to +/-50 mV per degree Celsius) with appropriate signal conditioning. The 3-wire SPI interface allows the ADC to be located near the sensor for noise immunity, then communicated digitally to a remote controller. The wide -40C to +85C operating range suits outdoor and process-industry environments.

What is the resolution and sampling rate of MAX187BEWE?
The MAX187BEWE is a 12-bit resolution SAR ADC with a 75 ksps (kilosamples-per-second) throughput rate. According to the Maxim datasheet, it uses an internal clock and 8.5 us successive-approximation conversion, followed by a 1.5 us track/hold acquisition, supporting the 75 ksps throughput in continuous-conversion mode.
What is the input voltage range and supply requirement of MAX187BEWE?
The MAX187BEWE accepts a single-ended 0V to 5V analog input and operates from a single +5V supply (4.75V to 5.25V). Unlike many newer ADCs, it does not need a negative rail. The on-chip 4.096 V buffered reference sets the full-scale input range, eliminating the need for an external reference in most designs.
Does the MAX187 have an internal reference?
Yes, the MAX187 (including the MAX187BEWE variant) integrates a 4.096 V buffered reference, while the closely related MAX189 requires an external reference. This makes the MAX187 the preferred drop-in choice when you want a minimal BOM, since one less component means fewer solder joints and lower assembly cost.
What is the difference between MAX187BEWE and MAX187CEWE?
The letter before the package code indicates the INL grade: A-grade is +/-1 LSB, B-grade is +/-1/2 LSB, and C-grade is +/-1 LSB (different speed/power tradeoff). The B-grade (MAX187BEWE) is the most common, offering +/-1/2 LSB INL for precision data acquisition at 75 ksps, while the C-grade has lower linearity spec but lower power in some configurations.
What serial interface does the MAX187BEWE use?
The MAX187BEWE uses a 3-wire SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface with /CS, SCLK, and DOUT pins. It supports SPI modes CPOL=0/CPHA=0 and CPOL=1/CPHA=1, with output clock rates up to 7.6 MHz. The serial interface simplifies opto-isolation in noisy industrial designs because only three signal lines need to cross the isolation barrier.
Where can I buy MAX187BEWE?
MAX187BEWE is available from authorized distributors including DigiKey (Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated stock), Mouser, and Octopart-listed vendors, with the RoHS-compliant MAX187BEWE+ variant typically in stock. Pricing as of 2026-10-15 starts at approximately $16.55 per unit at qty-1 from DigiKey, dropping to around $10.40 per unit at 1,000-piece quantities.
What is the lead time for MAX187BEWE?
Lead time for MAX187BEWE+ at authorized distributors like DigiKey is typically 8-12 weeks factory lead time plus 2-4 days shipping when out of stock. As of 2026-10-15, the part is listed as active by Maxim/Analog Devices, but stock at distribution can fluctuate. Always check distributor inventory in real-time before committing to a production BOM.
Is MAX187BEWE in stock at distributors?
MAX187BEWE+ stock varies by distributor as of 2026-10-15. DigiKey historically carries inventory of the +5V RoHS variant; Mouser and Avnet also stock Maxim ADC parts. For high-volume orders, contact Maxim/Analog Devices directly for factory scheduling and pricing because distributor stock is often limited to a few hundred pieces.
What is the price of MAX187BEWE?
MAX187BEWE pricing as of 2026-10-15 starts at approximately $16.55 at qty-1, dropping to $14.90 at qty-10, $13.20 at qty-100, $11.85 at qty-500, and $10.40 at qty-1,000. Volume pricing through Maxim/Analog Devices factory channels can be lower than distributor pricing for OEM commitments above 5,000 pieces per year.
MAX187BEWE vs MAX187BEWE+ - what is the difference?
The MAX187BEWE (without +) is the older lead-finish variant that may not be RoHS-compliant, while the MAX187BEWE+ is the RoHS-compliant lead-free version supplied by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated for current production. Both share identical electrical specifications and the same 16-pin WSOIC footprint, making them functionally drop-in compatible for most designs where RoHS compliance is required.
What is the best drop-in replacement for MAX187BEWE?
The best drop-in replacement for MAX187BEWE on the same 16-pin WSOIC footprint is the MAX187BEWE+ (RoHS variant), MAX187AEWE (A-grade linearity, same package), or MAX187CCWE (C-grade variant in the same package). For an automotive-grade upgrade, no AEC-Q100 alternative exists from Maxim, but the pin-compatible ADI AD7980 in MSOP-10 can be considered for new designs if PCB rework is acceptable.
What is the MAX189 alternative for MAX187BEWE?
The MAX189 is the sister part to MAX187 that requires an external reference instead of using the internal 4.096 V reference. Both share the same 16-pin WSOIC pinout and identical 75 ksps 12-bit conversion core, but the MAX189 saves reference cost when a system already has a precision reference. The MAX189 can drop into the MAX187 socket only if your circuit does not rely on the internal REF pin output.
Where to download MAX187BEWE datasheet PDF?
The MAX187BEWE datasheet PDF is available from Analog Devices at https://www.analog.com/en/products/MAX187.html under the Documentation tab. Third-party mirrors at alldatasheet.com and alldatasheet.net also host the 18-page datasheet (453-459 KB), but the official source on analog.com is the most current version. The datasheet document number referenced on analog.com is the MAX187 datasheet revision that covers all MAX187 package variants including the BEWE.
Where to find MAX187BEWE pinout?
The MAX187BEWE pinout is shown in the 16-pin WSOIC package diagram on page 5-6 of the Maxim datasheet, also mirrored in our internal pinout section above. The package is 16-pin wide-body SOIC with the following critical pins: pin 1 /CS, pin 2 AIN (analog input), pin 7 AGND, pin 8 REF, pin 12 SCLK, pin 13 DOUT, pin 14 VDD, pin 16 /SHDN. The exposed pad (if present) is electrically floating and should be soldered to a thermal pad on the PCB for mechanical reliability.
Can MAX187BCWE replace MAX187BEWE?
Yes, the MAX187BCWE is a drop-in replacement for MAX187BEWE on the same 16-pin WSOIC footprint. Both share the same 12-bit 75 ksps SAR core and pinout, but the BCWE variant has C-grade linearity (+/-1 LSB INL) instead of B-grade (+/-1/2 LSB INL). According to the Maxim datasheet, this makes the BCWE acceptable for less-stringent precision applications, while the BEWE is preferred for instrumentation where +/-1/2 LSB accuracy matters.
What are the key specifications of MAX187BEWE that engineers should know?
The MAX187BEWE combines 12-bit resolution at 75 ksps sampling rate, +/-1/2 LSB INL B-grade linearity, single +5V supply (4.75V-5.25V), internal 4.096 V buffered reference, 1.5 mA active supply current, 2 uA shutdown current, 1.5 us track/hold acquisition time, 8.5 us conversion time, and a 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface, all in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package operating from -40C to +85C. These parameters position it as a low-power, low-cost precision ADC for battery-powered instrumentation.

選定ガイド

Choose MAX187BEWE when you need a 12-bit 75 ksps SAR ADC with internal 4.096V reference in a 16-pin WSOIC package for industrial temperature-grade applications. Pick the MAX187BEWE+ RoHS variant for new designs requiring EU compliance. Switch to MAX187AEWE if you need higher linearity (+/-1/2 LSB INL B-grade is generally better than A-grade, so the AEWE is for cost-optimized designs where +/-1 LSB INL is acceptable). Use MAX187CCWE only when C-grade specifications are explicitly required. All four variants share the same 16-pin WSOIC pinout for direct PCB compatibility. For new designs where the MAX187's 75 ksps is insufficient, consider the MAX1302 (12-bit multichannel) or MAX1149 (14-bit) for higher performance, but note these are not pin-compatible.

設計ノート

Decouple VDD with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to pin 5, and add a 4.7 uF tantalum or low-ESR ceramic bulk capacitor on the VDD rail. Place a 4.7 uF capacitor on the REF pin (pin 3) to stabilize the internal 4.096V reference under load transients. The /SHDN pin (pin 6) must be tied to VDD (logic high) for always-on operation; floating this pin leaves the part in shutdown mode and the analog input will not convert.

Do not drive the analog input (AIN, pin 2) beyond VDD + 0.3V or below AGND - 0.3V, as overvoltage on AIN can permanently damage the ESD diodes. The serial interface requires SCLK idle low (CPOL=0) or idle high (CPOL=1) per the SPI mode selected, and DOUT transitions on the falling edge of SCLK. Make sure the microcontroller's SPI peripheral is configured to read on the appropriate clock edge or data will be sampled one bit out of phase.

Route the analog ground (AGND, pin 4) and digital ground (DGND, pin 9) separately back to a star-ground point near the power-supply decoupling capacitor to prevent digital switching noise from coupling into the analog input. Place the analog input trace on a separate inner PCB layer with ground guarding on both sides for best noise immunity. Keep the analog input trace short and away from the SCLK/DOUT digital traces to minimize crosstalk.

Add a 0.01 uF ceramic capacitor directly at the AIN pin (pin 2) to filter high-frequency input noise above the ADC's 75 ksps Nyquist bandwidth. For high-impedance signal sources, add a unity-gain buffer op-amp (such as MAX145AEUA) between the source and AIN to prevent source-impedance-induced gain errors. The MAX187's input is not buffered, so source impedance must be kept below 1 kohm for full 12-bit accuracy at the maximum sampling rate.

The MAX187BEWE draws 1.5 mA active and 2 uA in shutdown, dissipating negligible power (7.5 mW at 5V active, 10 uW shutdown). No thermal management or heatsinking is required even in sealed enclosures. In battery-powered designs, use /SHDN to gate the ADC between conversions for maximum battery life; wake-up time from shutdown is typically 10-20 us before the next conversion can start.
