MAX166CEWP Обзор

The Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices) MAX166CEWP is a CMOS, μP-compatible, 8-bit successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) with 200 ksps throughput, an internal track-and-hold amplifier, and an on-chip 2.46 V bandgap reference, housed in a 20-pin SO (wide SOIC, 0.300 inch) package.

A successive-approximation ADC is a type of data converter that uses a binary-search algorithm against an internal precision reference to digitize an analog input. The SAR architecture, combined with an integrated track-and-hold, delivers a 5 μs conversion time plus acquisition time while eliminating the need for an external reference. The MAX166 occupies a defined place in the signal-chain hierarchy: ADC → data converter → mixed-signal IC → semiconductor.

Key features include a single 5 V analog supply (with separate analog and digital grounds), an 8-bit parallel microprocessor interface with three-state latched outputs, standard chip-select (CS) and read (RD) control inputs, a BUSY status output, and an input range of 0 V to 2.46 V (or 0 V to VREF when an external reference is driven into the REF pin). Throughput is 200 ksps, conversion time is 5 μs, and the operating temperature range is -40 °C to +85 °C (C-grade / commercial-industrial).

Typical applications include process-control data acquisition, portable instrumentation, isolated industrial front ends, and embedded 8-bit microcontroller analog input modules where a small, reference-inclusive ADC simplifies the BOM and saves PCB area. Because the reference and T/H are integrated, the MAX166 is a strong fit for 4 mA-to-20 mA loop digitization through a single op-amp front end.

When designing with this device, place the 10 μF/0.1 μF decoupling pair as close as possible to VDD and AGND, keep the analog input trace short and guarded, and tie unused digital outputs (DB0-DB7) high through pull-ups if the bus will be shared with other peripherals. The MAX166C variant (commercial temperature range) is pin-compatible with the MAX166E extended-temperature version and with the MAX165 family.

Типичное применение

MAX166CEWP подходит для 7 применениеs: Industrial Process-Control Data Acquisition, Portable Instrumentation and Handheld Meters, Isolated Industrial Sensor Front End, Embedded Microcontroller Analog Input Modules, Automotive Sensor Signal Conditioning, Test and Measurement Front Panel Digitizers, Energy and Power-Metering Sub-Systems.

🏭

Industrial Process-Control Data Acquisition

The MAX166CEWP's 200 ksps sample rate, integrated 2.46 V reference, and integrated track-and-hold make it well suited to multi-loop industrial process control. A single MAX166CEWP digitizes a 4-20 mA loop after a 250 ohm sense resistor and a scaling op-amp, while the 8-bit parallel interface streams conversion results directly into a microcontroller or PLC front end. With 5 us conversion time, the part can comfortably over-sample each loop at 1 kHz, enabling digital averaging to improve effective resolution beyond the raw 8 bits. The -40 C to +85 C industrial temperature grade handles unconditioned cabinet environments without derating.

🔧

Portable Instrumentation and Handheld Meters

Battery-powered handheld meters benefit from the MAX166CEWP's single 5 V supply and integrated reference, which removes the need for an external reference IC and minimizes quiescent draw. The 20-SOIC wide-body package is easy to hand-solder and rework, simplifying prototyping. The 8-bit resolution is sufficient for bar-graph displays, simple digital panel meters, and handheld multimeter secondary inputs where absolute accuracy of about 0.5 percent of full scale is acceptable. The integrated track-and-hold removes the external sample-hold op-amp, shrinking the BOM and the PCB footprint.

🧩

Isolated Industrial Sensor Front End

In isolated analog input modules, the MAX166CEWP digitizes the analog signal on the field (high-voltage) side close to the sensor, sending only digital bits across the isolation barrier. This eliminates the bulky analog optocoupler or isolation amplifier and significantly improves noise immunity and CMRR. The MAX166CEWP's 200 ksps throughput comfortably handles 4-20 mA loop rates, thermocouple or RTD pre-amplified signals, and 0-10 V industrial control inputs. The parallel interface connects to a local microcontroller that then drives a digital isolator such as an ADuM1411.

📱

Embedded Microcontroller Analog Input Modules

The MAX166CEWP's μP-compatible parallel bus, CS/RD control inputs, and BUSY flag make it a natural fit for 8051, PIC, and low-end ARM Cortex-M0 designs that lack a built-in ADC or need a fast external one. With 200 ksps throughput and 8-bit resolution it can digitize audio-bandwidth signals or capture fast transients on control lines. The integrated 2.46 V reference simplifies firmware calibration routines because the ADC's full-scale is internally defined, so the MCU only needs to apply a single gain trim value stored in EEPROM at production.

🚗

Automotive Sensor Signal Conditioning

When used with appropriate external TVS and RC filtering, the MAX166CEWP can digitize automotive sensors such as throttle position, pedal position, and HVAC damper feedback. The industrial -40 C to +85 C temperature grade handles cabin and under-hood-adjacent environments; for harsher under-hood placement an upgraded grade such as MAX166DEWP+ is recommended. The 200 ksps sample rate is overkill for slow automotive sensors but enables diagnostic oversampling and rapid fault detection. The parallel bus allows simple connection to a vehicle MCU without consuming scarce SPI resources.

🖥️

Test and Measurement Front Panel Digitizers

Bench-top instruments such as bench multimeters, panel meters, and laboratory data loggers can use the MAX166CEWP for low-cost analog input digitizing where 8-bit resolution is acceptable. The 200 ksps sample rate supports waveform capture of audio-bandwidth signals or transient events. The MAX166CEWP's integrated track-and-hold eliminates the need for an external sample-and-hold amplifier, while the parallel interface streams data into an FPGA or microcontroller display driver. The wide 20-SOIC package simplifies hand rework during development.

⚡

Energy and Power-Metering Sub-Systems

Single-phase energy meters and power-monitoring modules use the MAX166CEWP to digitize current-sense signals from a shunt or current transformer after signal conditioning. The integrated 2.46 V reference is stable enough to maintain AC-line measurement accuracy to about 1 percent over the industrial temperature range. The 8-bit resolution is sufficient for cost-optimized residential energy meters where a separate metering IC is too expensive. The 200 ksps sample rate allows sampling of the 50/60 Hz mains many times per cycle, supporting RMS and reactive-power calculations in firmware.

Сводка рекомендуемых товаров

What is the resolution and sample rate of the MAX166CEWP?
The MAX166CEWP is an 8-bit successive-approximation ADC with a maximum sample rate of 200 ksps (5 us conversion time plus acquisition time). According to the Maxim datasheet summary, the device integrates the track-and-hold amplifier and reference, so the 200 ksps figure is achievable on a single 5 V supply without external analog support components. This throughput level is well-matched to 8-bit embedded μC data-acquisition tasks.
Does the MAX166CEWP include an internal voltage reference?
Yes. The MAX166CEWP integrates a 2.46 V on-chip bandgap reference, which defines the default analog input span (0 V to 2.46 V). The REF pin is brought out so an external reference can overdrive the internal one if higher accuracy or a different input range is required. For most 8-bit designs the internal reference is sufficient and saves a component.
What is the operating temperature range of the MAX166CEWP?
The MAX166CEWP (C-grade) is specified for -40 C to +85 C operation, which is the commercial-industrial range. This is broader than the basic 0 C to +70 C commercial grade and makes the part suitable for outdoor enclosures, industrial cabinets, and automotive under-hood-adjacent environments where temperature swings are common.
Where can I buy the MAX166CEWP and what does it cost?
The MAX166CEWP is in stock at major authorized distributors such as DigiKey (part 466637) and is also available through Xecor and secondary channels. Pricing varies by quantity; as of 2026-10-15, single-piece street pricing is approximately $8.40, with breaks at 10, 100, 500, and 1,000 pieces. Lead time is typically 6-12 weeks when not in distributor stock.
What is the lead time for MAX166CEWP orders?
When purchased through franchised distributors, MAX166CEWP lead time is typically 8-12 weeks from Maxim/Analog Devices, depending on factory backlog. Authorized stock at DigiKey generally ships within 1-3 business days when inventory is available. Long lead times are the main reason engineers look for drop-in cross references such as the MAX166DEWP+.
What is the difference between MAX166CEWP and MAX166DEWP+?
The MAX166CEWP is the commercial-industrial temperature grade (-40 C to +85 C) in a 20-SOIC package, while the MAX166DEWP+ is the extended-temperature grade with identical pinout and electrical characteristics. Both share the same datasheet family and the SO-20 footprint, so the D-grade is a drop-in upgrade for harsher thermal environments at the cost of a small price premium.
MAX166CEWP vs MAX166CCWP+ - which should I choose?
Both are 8-bit 200 ksps SAR ADCs from Maxim in a 20-SOIC package; the difference is the temperature grade. The MAX166CEWP covers -40 C to +85 C (commercial-industrial), while the MAX166CCWP+ covers 0 C to +70 C (commercial only). For outdoor, industrial, or any application that may see sub-zero temperatures, choose the MAX166CEWP.
Is there a drop-in replacement for the MAX166CEWP?
Yes. The MAX166DEWP+ (extended-temperature grade) is a direct drop-in replacement with identical pinout and electrical characteristics; it is the recommended substitute for MAX166CEWP when the wider temperature range is acceptable. Both share the SO-20 footprint and μP-compatible interface, so no PCB changes are needed.
When should I choose MAX166CEWP over the MAX165 family?
Choose MAX166CEWP when you need 200 ksps throughput with an integrated reference and track-and-hold in a single 5 V part - the MAX166 integrates the reference, while the MAX165 requires an external reference. If your design can tolerate an external reference and you prefer the slightly faster MAX165 timing, choose the MAX165; otherwise MAX166CEWP simplifies the BOM.
Can I use the MAX166CEWP for 4-20 mA loop digitization?
Yes, the MAX166CEWP is well suited for 4-20 mA industrial loop digitization. Place a 250 ohm sense resistor to convert 4-20 mA into 1 V to 5 V, scale it to the MAX166's 0 V to 2.46 V input range with a single op-amp, and use the 200 ksps sample rate to comfortably over-sample the loop. The integrated reference keeps accuracy stable across temperature.
What is the key specifications of MAX166CEWP that engineers should know?
The MAX166CEWP is an 8-bit 200 ksps SAR ADC with 5 us conversion time, an integrated 2.46 V reference, an integrated track-and-hold, a parallel 8-bit μP-compatible interface (CS, RD, BUSY), single 5 V supply, and -40 C to +85 C operating range in a 20-SOIC (wide) package. These parameters are the headline values to memorize when comparing it to other 8-bit ADCs such as the MAX165, ADC0804, or TLC0820.
Where can I download the MAX166CEWP datasheet PDF?
The MAX166CEWP datasheet is hosted at Maxim/Analog Devices and is mirrored on alldatasheet.com (5,218 KB, originally published 2003-12-23). The datasheet includes the SAR timing diagram, reference-decoupling recommendations, and the μP bus interface description. The FindIC link also offers a direct PDF download.
Where can I find the MAX166CEWP pinout?
The MAX166CEWP pinout for the 20-pin SOIC package is documented in the manufacturer datasheet. Pin 1 is marked by the dot on the package top; the device includes analog input (AIN), reference (REF), CS, RD, BUSY, DB0-DB7, VDD, AGND, and DGND. The standard pinout is shared with the MAX165 family, so legacy designs can swap the two with minor firmware checks.
What is the best cross-brand equivalent for MAX166CEWP?
There is no widely-distributed cross-brand pin-compatible equivalent to the MAX166CEWP because Maxim/Analog Devices dominates this niche 8-bit SAR + integrated-reference segment. The most practical substitutes are Maxim's own MAX166DEWP+ (extended temperature) or the MAX165 family if you accept an external reference. Engineers usually stay within the Maxim/ADI product line for this part.
Is the MAX166CEWP still in production in 2026?
According to distributor listings active as of 2026-10-15, the MAX166CEWP remains in production at Maxim (now part of Analog Devices) and is listed at DigiKey, Mouser, and Xecor with no end-of-life flag. Long factory lead times (8-12 weeks) are normal for mature 8-bit ADCs and reflect low-volume production rather than obsolescence.

Руководство по выбору

Choose the MAX166CEWP when you need a single-supply 5 V 8-bit SAR ADC with an integrated 2.46 V reference, integrated track-and-hold, and 200 ksps throughput, and you need industrial -40 C to +85 C operation. The 20-SOIC wide package is easy to hand-solder and rework, making the part ideal for prototypes and small-batch industrial designs. Choose the MAX166CCWP+ if your design only sees 0-70 C and you want a small cost saving. Choose the MAX166DEWP+ if you need extended -55 to +125 C automotive or military temperature coverage - it shares the exact SO-20 footprint. Choose the MAX165BCWN only if you specifically need to drive the reference externally; otherwise the MAX166 family's integrated reference simplifies the BOM. For higher resolution (12-14 bit) or higher channel count, consider the MAX1241/MAX147/MAX1304 family instead.

Заметки по проектированию

Estimated: at 5 V supply the MAX166CEWP draws approximately 4-6 mA during active conversion, equivalent to 20-30 mW. Decouple VDD (pin 13) and the AVDD pin (pin 19) with a 10 uF tantalum or ceramic plus a 0.1 uF ceramic placed within 5 mm of each supply pin. Keep the AGND and DGND pins tied to a common ground plane at a single point near the ADC; do not run digital return currents through the analog ground trace, as this couples switching noise into the reference.

Route the analog input trace as a guarded pair with AGND on both sides, and keep it short (under 25 mm) to minimize coupling from digital lines. Place the REF decoupling capacitor (typically 10 uF electrolytic in parallel with 0.1 uF ceramic) directly at pin 16, and avoid routing digital signals (DB0-DB7, CS, RD, BUSY) across the analog input or reference traces. If the design uses the internal reference, do not draw DC current from REF - buffer it with an op-amp if multiple loads must be driven.

Three common pitfalls: (1) Driving the analog input beyond 0 V to 2.46 V (or VDD), which can latch up or damage the input; always add a clamping/TVS structure for industrial use. (2) Forgetting to wait for BUSY to fall before reading DB0-DB7 - the datasheet's timing diagram shows a 5 us conversion window. (3) Using a long CS pulse when reading; CS must remain low for the entire read cycle and must be de-asserted between conversions if the bus is shared. Failing to handle the BUSY-to-data delay correctly is the most frequent cause of misread conversions.

Use a star-ground topology with AGND and DGND tied at a single point under the IC. Place the MAX166CEWP close to the analog input connector so the analog signal never has to cross digital regions. Place a small ferrite bead or 10 ohm resistor in series with VDD to suppress digital switching noise from entering the analog supply. Keep the parallel data bus traces short and series-terminate with 33-47 ohm resistors if the bus runs longer than 50 mm to the host microcontroller.
