MAX1241BEPA 개요

The Maxim Integrated MAX1241BEPA is a low-power, 12-bit, 73ksps successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) in an 8-pin PDIP package. Operating from a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply, the device delivers 12-bit resolution with internal 2.5V reference and a 7.5us successive-approximation conversion time. Its serial (SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible) interface and 8-pin DIP/SO footprint make it one of the smallest 12-bit ADCs in its class, while consuming only 5uW in power-down mode for battery-aware designs.

A SAR ADC is a successive-approximation-register analog-to-digital converter that uses a comparator, an internal DAC, and a binary-search algorithm to convert an analog input into a digital code, typically in one to several microseconds. As a member of the SAR converter hierarchy -> ADC -> data converter -> signal chain IC -> mixed-signal semiconductor, the MAX1241BEPA is suited to medium-speed, medium-accuracy instrumentation and process-control applications where deterministic latency and simple serial interfacing outweigh the need for higher throughput or true bipolar input ranges.

Key features include an input track-and-hold (T/H) front end that eliminates the need for an external sample-and-hold, single-supply operation up to +5.25V, internal 2.5V reference, and a hardware shutdown pin that drops supply current to under 10uA. The MAX1241 supports an external reference input, allowing the full-scale range to be scaled to suit sensor outputs such as 4-20mA-derived voltages or thermocouple signals.

Architecturally, the MAX1241BEPA uses a BiCMOS SAR core with a charge-redistribution DAC, achieving 12-bit INL of +/-1 LSB and DNL of +/-1 LSB (max). Its serial clock rates up to 2.1MHz at 5V and SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible logic enable straightforward connection to virtually any microcontroller or DSP without external glue logic.

Typical applications include portable data loggers, battery-powered instrumentation, process-control analog input modules, temperature sensor digitizers (with external reference trimming), and pen-digitizer / touch panels. The wide 2.7V-5.25V supply range also lets it operate directly from a 3.3V or 5V microcontroller rail.

When designing with this device, place the 0.1uF supply bypass capacitor as close to VDD as possible and ensure the REF bypass (typically 4.7uF) is low-ESR to keep reference noise below 1 LSB. The MAX1241BEPA differs from the MAX1240 in supply range (2.7V-5.25V vs 2.7V-3.6V) and the MAX1241AEPA in accuracy grade and operating temperature window.

🧩

Portable Battery-Powered Data Logger

The MAX1241BEPA fits portable battery-powered data loggers because its +2.7V to +5.25V supply range allows direct operation from two fresh AA cells, a 3.3V LDO, or a USB-derived 5V rail without level shifting. Its 7.5 microsecond conversion time at 73 ksps lets a low-power microcontroller sample sensors at 1 Hz to 10 kHz with deterministic latency, and the shutdown pin drops current to under 10 microampere between conversions - achieving the roughly 1000x active-to-standby ratio that drives multi-year coin-cell runtimes. Place a 4.7uF low-ESR bypass on REF (internal 2.5V reference) so reference drift does not eat into the +/1 LSB INL budget at slow sample rates.

🏭

Process Control Analog Input Module

In process-control analog input modules, the MAX1241BEPA digitises 4-20 mA-derived shunt voltages and thermocouple-conditioned thermocouple-conditioned millivolt signals with the SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface directly wired to a PLC or industrial MCU. Driving the REF pin from an external +5.000V reference scales the 0-VREF unipolar input range to full industrial sensor spans, while the track-and-hold front end removes the need for an external sample/hold stage. Its -40 C to +85 C industrial temperature range tolerates cabinet locations, and the +/1 LSB INL/DNL means no missing codes across the SAR core.

💊

Temperature Sensor Digitiser

The MAX1241BEPA is a natural fit for temperature-sensor digitisation with platinum RTDs, thermistors or solid-state sensors when paired with a low-offset front-end amplifier. The internal 2.5V reference plus an external ratiometric reference mode (driving the same excitation voltage to the RTD bridge and to REF) cancels lead-resistance and reference errors first-order, while the 12-bit resolution yields roughly 0.6 C per LSB over a 0-150 C span - more than enough for most HVAC and appliance loops. The 8-pin PDIP footprint keeps the analog front end compact enough to colocate the ADC with the sensor on a remote board.

⚡

Industrial Weigh Scale / Strain-Gauge Front End

Weigh-scale and strain-gauge front ends benefit from the MAX1241BEPA's differential-style measurement technique: a single-ended analog input digitises the bridge-output voltage with respect to REF, while ratiometric sensing (using the same REF-derived excitation for the bridge) cancels bridge self-heating drift. The SAR architecture's excellent noise rejection and lack of pipeline latency make the part safe for dc-stabilised measurements where readings must not strobe or wander, and the +/1 LSB INL delivers repeatable counts to within 0.024 percent over a 0-2.5V full scale.

📱

Pen-Digitizer / Touch Panel Digitiser

The MAX1241BEPA's 73 ksps sample rate and 7.5 us conversion time make it usable in digitiser and touch-panel applications where the host samples X/Y or pressure line voltages at 1 kHz or higher. Its small 8-pin PDIP footprint keeps the analog frontend compact, while the SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial data output drops cleanly into the host's SPI peripheral with no glue logic. Single-supply +2.7V to +5.25V operation also means the same ADC works whether the panel controller runs from a 3.3V LDO or a 5V regulated rail.

🔧

Test & Measurement Handheld Instrument

Handheld test and measurement instruments exploit the MAX1241BEPA's combination of low quiescent current, integrated 2.5V reference and 12-bit accuracy to digitise voltage, current and sensor-derived signals in battery-powered multimeters. The shutdown pin's <10uA standby current preserves battery life when the meter is in hold, while the 73 ksps throughput supports 1000+ readings per second on demand for transient capture. The MAX1241BEPA's 8-pin PDIP pinout also allows a single PCB layout to be reused across 3.3V and 5V instrument SKUs with only a BOM swap.

What is the MAX1241BEPA and what does it do?
The MAX1241BEPA is a 12-bit, 73 ksps successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) from Maxim Integrated in an 8-pin PDIP package. According to the Maxim MAX1240/MAX1241 datasheet, it operates from a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply, includes an internal 2.5V reference and tracks the input directly - so no external sample-and-hold is required - making it a compact, low-power digitiser for sensor and instrumentation channels.
What is the supply voltage range of the MAX1241BEPA?
The MAX1241BEPA operates from a single +2.7V to +5.25V supply. This wider 5.25V upper bound is the key distinction from the MAX1240, which tops out at +3.6V, and lets the MAX1241BEPA run directly from a 5V regulated rail, a 3.3V microcontroller rail, or two fresh AA cells in battery-powered designs without level shifting.
What is the sample rate and conversion time of the MAX1241BEPA?
The MAX1241BEPA samples at up to 73 ksps with a typical conversion time of 7.5 microseconds when VDD=5V. At 3V the serial clock is reduced to 1 MHz to keep the SAR timing accurate, which yields a proportionally longer conversion time. The clock is supplied externally from the host microcontroller's SPI peripheral.
Does the MAX1241BEPA have an internal voltage reference?
Yes, the MAX1241BEPA integrates a 2.5V band-gap reference accessible at the REF pin. Maxim recommends a 4.7 uF low-ESR bypass capacitor on REF to keep reference noise below 1 LSB. For applications needing a different full-scale range (for example 0-4.096 V or 0-5 V from a 5V supply), an external reference can also be driven into the REF pin to override the internal reference.
What is the difference between MAX1241BEPA, MAX1241AEPA and MAX1241CEPA?
The MAX1241AEPA, MAX1241BEPA and MAX1241CEPA are the same Maxim part with different accuracy and operating-temperature grades: A-grade is the lowest-INL window, B-grade is +/-1 LSB INL industrial, and C-grade typically tightens INL/DNL further for measurement applications. All three share the same 8-pin PDIP pinout and pin-compatible footprint, so they are drop-in interchangeable when datasheet limits are met, but Verify derating for temperature and INL.
Where can I buy the MAX1241BEPA online and what is the unit price?
As of 2026-10-14, the MAX1241BEPA is in stock at DigiKey (Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated), with LCSC listing the part at approximately $6.77 unit at qty 1. Octopart reports aggregated stock from 6 distributors. Volume pricing typically drops to the low-$4 range at 1000-piece quantities; for an exact current quote, check the XAIPART product page or DigiKey.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the MAX1241BEPA?
The MAX1241BCPA, MAX1241ACPA+, MAX1241CEPA+ and MAX1241CCPA+ are direct same-family drop-in replacements in the same 8-pin PDIP package, identical pinout and same SAR converter core. For a wider search, the MAX1240BEPA+ (in the same Maxim family but lower 3.6V supply limit) is also pin-compatible in the same SO/DIP package. Cross-brand pin-compatible drop-ins are limited; consult the comparison table below.
MAX1241BEPA vs MAX1240 - which one should I use?
Choose the MAX1241BEPA when the analog circuit runs from a +5V rail (or any source up to +5.25V), because the MAX1241's +2.7V to +5.25V supply range handles both 3.3V and 5V. Choose the MAX1240 if the design is firmly 3.3V (its +2.7V-3.6V supply range is tighter, with a guaranteed 2.5V internal reference and slightly lower power). Both share the 8-pin DIP/SO footprint and serial interface, so pinout and code are interchangeable at 3.3V.
Is the MAX1241BEPA RoHS compliant and lead-free?
RoHS / lead-free compliance for the MAX1241BEPA itself was not explicitly stated in the provided web data; the trailing "+" suffix on Maxim/ADI MPNs generally indicates lead-free and RoHS compliance, while the non-"+" variant (MAX1241BEPA without plus) is a legacy leaded option. For designs under RoHS, prefer MAX1241BEPA+ or the MAX1241BCPA+ equivalent; check the XAIPART compliance field or the ADI product page for confirmation before procurement.
What interface does the MAX1241BEPA use to talk to a microcontroller?
The MAX1241BEPA uses an SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface in mode 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0). The DOUT line presents MSB-first conversion data and the SSTRB falling edge marks valid data. Any microcontroller with an SPI master (or even bit-banged GPIOs) can host the MAX1241BEPA at up to 2.1 MHz SCLK at VDD=5V and 1 MHz at VDD=3V.
What is the input voltage range of the MAX1241BEPA?
The MAX1241BEPA accepts unipolar single-ended analog inputs from 0V to VREF. Because VREF is typically the internal 2.5V (or an externally driven value up to VDD), the full-scale input range is 0V-2.5V by default - making the part well suited to single-ended sensors (thermistors, photodiodes, strain gauges) and to ratiometric measurements when the ADC's reference is forced to the sensor's excitation supply.
What is the operating temperature range of the MAX1241BEPA?
The MAX1241BEPA is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40 C to +85 C, per the Maxim MAX1240/MAX1241 datasheet ordering information. The "B" suffix denotes the industrial temperature range and the +-1 LSB INL accuracy grade. For commercial-grade (0 C to +70 C) or tighter grade variants, see MAX1241AEPA or MAX1241BCPA+ ordering options.
What is the typical power consumption of the MAX1241BEPA?
The MAX1241BEPA draws about 1.3 mA typical at 73 ksps with VDD=5V (about 6.5 mW active). In power-down mode - entered by driving the SHDN bar pin high - the supply current drops to under 10 uA, yielding roughly 5 uW standby power. This 1000x active-to-standby ratio makes the part attractive for battery-powered data loggers where the ADC spends most of its life asleep.
Where can I download the MAX1241BEPA datasheet PDF?
The MAX1241BEPA datasheet PDF can be downloaded from the Alldatasheet mirror at https://www.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/pdf/72784/MAXIM/MAX1241BEPA.html and from Maxim/ADI at https://www.analog.com/en/products/max1241.html. The Alldatasheet scan is 204 KB and dated 2010-08-30. For the latest revision, always prefer the ADI / Maxim Integrated product page.
What is the pinout of the MAX1241BEPA 8-pin PDIP?
The MAX1241BEPA 8-pin PDIP pinout is: pin 1 VDD (supply), pin 2 AIN (analog input), pin 3 REF (reference I/O), pin 4 AGND (analog ground), pin 5 DGND (digital ground), pin 6 SSTRB bar (conversion-status output), pin 7 DOUT (serial data out), pin 8 SCLK (serial clock input). All voltages are relative to DGND = AGND, which must be tied together at a single point on the PCB.

선택 가이드

Choose the MAX1241BEPA when you need a 12-bit, 73 ksps SAR ADC in a through-hole 8-PDIP package running from a +2.7V to +5.25V rail - the wider 5.25V upper bound is the deciding advantage over the MAX1240 in 5V-only designs. Pick the B-grade if you're balancing cost against +/-1 LSB INL industrial accuracy, and the C-grade when a tighter linearity spec is required by calibration. Drop-in substitutes within the same family include MAX1241BCPA+, MAX1241ACPA+, MAX1241CCPA+, MAX1241CEPA+, and MAX1240BEPA+ (the latter restricted to 3.3V rails). True cross-brand pin-compatible 12-bit/73 ksps drop-ins are rare in 8-PDIP; consider migrating to a SOIC-8 alternative such as MAX1241BESA+ or a 16-bit family member like MAX1062EUB+ only if PCB rework is feasible.

설계 노트

Place a 0.1uF ceramic bypass as close to VDD (pin 1) as the 8-PDIP pin pitch allows - the SAR converter draws brief current spikes during the internal DAC settling period, and any series inductance between VDD and the chip can couple switching noise into the analog input. Also bypass VREF (pin 3) with a 4.7uF low-ESR capacitor (tantalum or polymer aluminum) per Maxim's reference design to keep reference noise below 1 LSB; using a ceramic-only bypass here will allow noise-induced gain error.

Route the analog input (AIN, pin 2) on a top-layer guard trace that is bounded by ground flood on both sides. Maxim's MAX1241 datasheet recommends keeping the analog trace short and away from SCLK (pin 8) and DOUT (pin 7) traces to avoid digital feedback into the analog front end. Reference the ADC analog ground (AGND, pin 4) and digital ground (DGND, pin 5) together at a single star ground near the reference bypass capacitor, not at multiple points.

When using an external reference instead of the internal 2.5V bandgap, buffer the reference with a low-noise op-amp such as the MAX6126 or MAX6325 to avoid reference current transients during the 7.5 us conversion. Drive REF from an op-amp with <5 uV/ms slew rate of its own and route the reference trace on the bottom layer with a top-side ground flood for shielding - using a high-impedance source here will couple sample-and-hold clock glitches into the SAR comparator and add 1-2 LSB of noise.

Do not apply inputs above VDD or below AGND to AIN (pin 2) - exceeding the rail can latch up the ESD diodes and permanently damage the part. Also note that the MAX1241 requires 13 SCLK edges to complete a conversion (a starter bit + 12 data bits), not 12; leaving the chip with no SCLK after the 13th edge stalls the conversion. Finally, ensure SCLK is idle-low before CS is asserted - mode 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) is mandatory.
