MAX172BEWG 概述

The Maxim Integrated MAX172BEWG is a complete 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that combines 10 microsecond conversion time, low power consumption, and an on-chip buried-zener voltage reference in a 24-pin wide-body SOIC package. The device uses a successive-approximation register (SAR) architecture with on-chip track-and-hold and operates from a single +5V analog supply with a separate digital supply pin for low digital-noise coupling. The MAX172BEWG is specified for the extended-industrial -40C to +85C temperature range (denoted by the 'E' suffix) and uses the Maxim 24-SOIC wide-body 0.295-inch land pattern.

An ADC is a mixed-signal integrated circuit that converts a continuous analog input voltage into a discrete N-bit binary code suitable for digital processing. In the hierarchy of data-converter ICs, the MAX172 sits inside the SAR ADC family, which itself is a sub-category of Nyquist-rate ADCs, distinct from sigma-delta (oversampling) and pipelined converters. SAR ADCs are valued for deterministic latency, single-cycle conversions, and excellent DC-accuracy at moderate sample rates, making them the workhorse for data-acquisition front-ends and instrumentation.

Key features of the MAX172BEWG include 12-bit resolution with no missing codes, +/-0.5 LSB integral nonlinearity (typical), a +5V single supply with separate V+ and VDIG inputs, parallel microprocessor interface (8+4 multiplexed or straight binary), and a buried-zener reference that provides low drift and low noise. The ADC also provides a +2.5V or +5V reference output drive capability for ratiometric or absolute conversions, and a hardware Read strobe plus mode-locked BUSY/INT line for interrupt-driven microcontrollers.

Architecturally, the device integrates a precision CMOS comparator, a switched-capacitor DAC based on a thin-film ladder, a buried-zener reference, a sample-and-hold stage, and digital timing/control logic. The buried zener (rather than a bandgap) yields the reference noise and drift performance needed for 12-bit absolute accuracy and supports a long-term drift of typically less than 30 ppm per 1000 hours.

Typical applications include high-speed data-acquisition boards, digital panel meters, process-control analog inputs, instrumentation transducer read-out, and remote sensor analog front-ends. Industrial PLC analog input modules and laboratory bench instruments commonly use this converter because the 24-SOIC wide package is still acceptable in through-hole-style front ends and the part is fully specified over the industrial temperature window.

For best accuracy, decouple V+ and VDIG at the IC pins with separate 0.1 microfarad ceramic capacitors in parallel with 10 microfarad tantalum or aluminum-polymer bypass capacitors, and short the analog and digital grounds at the AGND-to-DGND pin only. The internal reference drives up to 5 mA but is sensitive to capacitive loads - keep the REF pin bypassed with a 4.7 microfarad to 22 microfarad low-ESR tantalum or ceramic capacitor.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, pinout-accurate SOIC-24 alternatives, and practical design notes that complement the manufacturer datasheet rather than restating its tables.

典型应用

MAX172BEWG 适用于 6 应用s: Industrial PLC Analog Input Module, Data-Acquisition Board for Test and Measurement, Digital Panel Meter and Process Instrumentation Read-out, Analog-to-Digital Front-End for Sensor Signal Conditioning, Battery-Powered Sensor Logger, Legacy Industrial Controller Upgrade Repair.

🏭

Industrial PLC Analog Input Module

The MAX172BEWG is well suited to industrial PLC analog input modules because it accepts a 0V to +2.5V unipolar input on a single +5V rail with 12-bit resolution and 100 kSPS sampling, matching the bandwidth of 4-20 mA loop digitization through a current-sense resistor. Its buried-zener internal reference provides the long-term stability required for 24-hour process control recalibration cycles, and the extended-industrial -40C to +85C temperature range covers outdoor cabinet mounting. The parallel interface allows direct connection to a 16-bit PLC backplane FPGA or 8-bit ATmega-class MCU in multiplexed mode. Unlike sigma-delta ADCs, the SAR conversion provides deterministic single-cycle latency, simplifying the deterministic-plc scan timing budget.

🖥️

Data-Acquisition Board for Test and Measurement

The MAX172BEWG provides 12-bit resolution at 100 kSPS - a sweet spot for laboratory data-acquisition boards that digitize signals from laboratory instruments like oscilloscope probes, strain-gauge amplifiers, and other low-frequency precision sensors. Its parallel output bus allows zero-wait-state transfers into FPGA buffers for waveform capture, and its TTL-compatible data interface simplifies timing closure versus a serial ADC. The single +5V analog + +5V digital supply split keeps digital switching noise out of the analog front end, allowing 12-bit ENOB performance with proper ground-plane layout. The MAX172BEWG remains a popular choice where inventory longevity matters more than over-sampling noise reduction.

📺

Digital Panel Meter and Process Instrumentation Read-out

The MAX172BEWG is a long-standing choice for digital panel meters, weight scales, and process instrumentation front-ends because its 12-bit resolution (+/-0.5 LSB INL) provides adequate display resolution for industrial read-outs, while its 10 microsecond conversion time keeps the LCD refresh rate fast for live-process monitoring. The internal +2.5V reference eliminates the cost of an external reference IC, and the SAR architecture guarantees monotonic readings - critical for scale or calibration displays that must never show a non-monotonic transition. The 24-SOIC wide-body footprint is friendly to through-hole-style hand-repairable front ends, common in industrial panel designs.

⚡

Analog-to-Digital Front-End for Sensor Signal Conditioning

The MAX172BEWG pairs naturally with industrial sensor signal-conditioning front-ends such as RTD-to-digital converters, thermocouple amplifiers, and weigh-scale bridges. After low-level sensor analog amplification by an instrumentation amp, the MAX172BEWG digitizes 0V to +2.5V outputs with 12-bit precision, providing a complete signal chain in just two ICs. The buried-zener reference's low noise helps the ADC resolve the small thermocouple voltages in cold-junction-compensation loops, where every microvolt counts. The industrial temperature range and SOIC-24 wide package remain compatible with through-hole reworked sensors in legacy process instruments.

🔋

Battery-Powered Sensor Logger

The MAX172BEWG's low CMOS power consumption and 10 microsecond conversion support intermittent battery-powered sensor logging where the ADC wakes briefly per sample and returns to standby. While the MAX172 was designed for line-powered operation, parts with the E-suffix industrial temperature grade are commonly retrofitted into remote data loggers for cold-environment telemetry. The +5V single-supply rail simplifies the auxiliary power tree, and the small 24-SOIC wide package enables a compact logger PCB. Designers selecting the MAX172BEWG for battery use must re-verify sleep current against the datasheet to confirm it meets their battery-budget target.

🔧

Legacy Industrial Controller Upgrade Repair

The MAX172BEWG is widely stocked as a long-lifecycle 12-bit ADC for legacy industrial controller repair and field-replacement, where end-customer equipment has a 15-to-25 year service lifetime. Its 24-SOIC wide-body package is still preferred in legacy through-hole-rework designs, and the extended industrial temperature grade supports long-term service. Many repair shops stock the MAX172BEWG+ as a primary drop-in to service 1990s-era industrial controllers that originally used the MAX172BEWG part marking. The MAX172BEWG+ is also commonly specified in new-design NPI boards as a long-lived stability anchor.

What is the resolution and sample rate of the MAX172BEWG?
The MAX172BEWG is a 12-bit successive-approximation ADC with a maximum sample rate of 100 kSPS (10 microsecond conversion time per channel). According to the Maxim datasheet, the converter delivers no-missing-codes 12-bit performance with a single +5V analog supply, making it suitable for data-acquisition systems where deterministic single-cycle latency is more important than ultra-high sample rates.
What package does the MAX172BEWG use, and how many pins?
The MAX172BEWG uses a 24-pin wide-body SOIC (Small Outline IC) package with a 0.295-inch (7.50 mm) body width, surface-mount gull-wing leads. The 'EWG' suffix is Maxim's ordering code for 24-pin wide SOIC, and is the same land pattern across the MAX172 family including the MAX172BEWG+ RoHS-compliant variant.
Does the MAX172BEWG include an internal voltage reference?
Yes, the MAX172BEWG integrates an on-chip buried-zener voltage reference providing +2.5V nominal output that can be used directly or externally scaled. The buried-zener topology provides low temperature drift and low broadband noise, which is critical for 12-bit absolute-accuracy conversions and is a key reason this part is preferred over bandgap-based ADCs in precision instrumentation.
What is the difference between MAX172BEWG and MAX172BEWG+ ?
The MAX172BEWG+ is the RoHS-compliant lead-free version of the MAX172BEWG. Both parts are pin-to-pin and parametrically identical; the '+' suffix simply denotes lead finish and RoHS compliance per Maxim's ordering convention. Per FindIC data, the MAX172BEWG+ 'completely replaces' the MAX172BEWG with consistent terminals and packages.
Where can I download the MAX172BEWG datasheet PDF?
The MAX172 datasheet PDF can be downloaded directly from Analog Devices (Maxim) at https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/MAX172.pdf. The same datasheet covers the MAX172BEWG, MAX172BEWG+, and the entire MAX172 family including the 24-pin wide SOIC, 28-pin CDIP, and other package options.
What is the MAX172BEWG input voltage range?
[DATA_NEEDED: specific differential input range] The MAX172BEWG accepts a unipolar 0V to +2.5V input on a 0-5V analog supply when using the internal +2.5V reference. For exact differential input and full-scale range specifications, refer to the Analog Devices MAX172 datasheet tables - common values found are 0V to +2.5V for single-ended unipolar operation.
What is the operating temperature range of MAX172BEWG?
The MAX172BEWG is specified for the extended-industrial temperature range of -40C to +85C, which is denoted by the 'E' suffix in the part number per Maxim's ordering convention. This is wider than the commercial 0C to +70C range (which would be 'C' suffix) and makes the MAX172BEWG suitable for outdoor industrial PLC analog input modules and harsh-environment instrumentation.
What are typical applications for the MAX172BEWG?
The MAX172BEWG is typically used in industrial PLC analog input modules, data-acquisition boards, digital panel meters, laboratory test instruments, and process-control transducer read-out circuits. Its 100 kSPS sample rate and 12-bit resolution strike a balance for 4-20 mA loop digitization, RTD/thermocouple front-ends, and strain-gauge instrumentation where SAR's deterministic single-cycle conversion is preferred over sigma-delta.
What is the digital interface of the MAX172BEWG?
The MAX172BEWG provides a parallel microprocessor interface with two read modes: 8-bit + 4-bit multiplexed (HBEN input selects high/low byte) for 8-bit microcontrollers, or a straight 12-bit binary output for 16-bit processors. The interface also provides a hardware Read strobe (/RD) and a mode-locked BUSY/INT output line that asserts at the end of conversion for interrupt-driven firmware.
Can I use the MAX172BEWG with a 3.3V microcontroller?
The MAX172BEWG's digital interface is specified for TTL-level inputs compatible with +5V CMOS/TTL; interfacing to a 3.3V microcontroller requires either a level translator or verifying that the VIL/VIH thresholds of the specific MCU match the ADC outputs. Per the Maxim datasheet, VDIG is +5V nominal; a 3.3V MCU typically requires a 74HCT4050 or similar level-shifter on the data bus.
Is the MAX172BEWG still in production in 2026?
Yes, the MAX172BEWG remains active in Maxim Integrated's product catalog under Analog Devices ownership as of 2026-10-15. Stock is constrained on some distributor websites (for example DigiKey shows 0 units for one variant listing), but Mouser and Vyrian inventory confirm the part is still in production and being shipped as a long-lifecycle industrial-grade ADC.
MAX172BEWG vs MAX172BEWG+T - what is the difference?
The MAX172BEWG+T is the tape-and-reel packaging option for the MAX172BEWG+, intended for high-volume automated SMT assembly, while the MAX172BEWG+ (no 'T') ships in anti-static tubes. Both variants share identical die, pinout, and electrical specifications and are drop-in equivalents on the production line - the only difference is the carrier format and quantity-per-reel.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the MAX172BEWG?
The closest drop-in replacements for the MAX172BEWG are other 12-bit 100 kSPS SAR ADCs in the 24-pin wide SOIC package, such as the MAX172BEWG+ (RoHS version) and MAX172BEWG+T (tape-and-reel version). These Maxim / Analog Devices variants share identical pinout and electrical specifications and require no PCB changes; cross-brand equivalents would require re-verification of pinout compatibility before substitution.
Where to buy MAX172BEWG online with the best price?
As of 2026-10-15, the MAX172BEWG+ is listed on Mouser and Vyrian with confirmed stock, while DigiKey shows 0 units for one variant but lists the part as 'Available Substitutes Parametric Equivalent'. The single-unit price ranges from approximately $36.34 (DigiKey) to $50.97 on other distributors - for the lowest price, compare 1k-piece quotes across Mouser, DigiKey, and Octopart listings.
What PCB layout guidelines does Maxim recommend for the MAX172BEWG?
Maxim recommends separating analog and digital grounds with a single-point tie at the AGND-to-DGND pin on the IC, placing 0.1 microfarad ceramic + 10 microfarad tantalum decoupling capacitors as close as possible to the V+ and VDIG pins, and keeping digital data-bus traces physically isolated from the analog input and reference traces. The reference output pin must be buffered with a 4.7 microfarad to 22 microfarad low-ESR capacitor, and the REF-pin current should not exceed the datasheet load specification.

选型指南

Choose the MAX172BEWG when your design requires a 12-bit, 100 kSPS SAR ADC in a 24-SOIC wide-body package for industrial temperature (-40C to +85C) environments - typical uses include PLC analog input modules, data-acquisition boards, digital panel meters, sensor signal conditioners, and long-lifecycle legacy-industrial repair. Choose the MAX172BEWG+ if your board requires RoHS lead-free compliance (the + suffix denotes lead-free per Maxim's ordering convention). Choose the MAX172BEWG+T for volume SMT assembly using tape-and-reel pick-and-place. Choose the MAX172AEWG if you need a tightened A-grade INL spec (typically +/-0.25 LSB vs the B-grade +/-0.5 LSB) for higher-accuracy calibration or instrumentation read-outs. For new designs that need higher sample rates, multi-channel inputs, or lower power, evaluate the MAX1300-series 12-bit multi-channel ADCs from Maxim; if the design does not need the MAX172's wide-body 24-SOIC footprint (some modern boards prefer smaller MSOP-10 packages), consider the MAX147AEPP family of smaller 12-bit ADCs.

关键差异点

  • Extended-industrial -40C to +85C temperature grade (E suffix) (对比 MAX172BCWG)
  • Internal buried-zener reference delivering long-term drift under 30 ppm/1000h (对比 Bandgap-based SAR ADCs)
  • Single-conversion SAR architecture with deterministic 10 microsecond latency (对比 Sigma-delta ADCs in the same 12-bit 100kSPS class)

设计说明

The MAX172BEWG requires two separate supplies: +5V analog (V+, pin 4) and +5V digital (VDIG, pin 24). Decouple V+ with a 0.1 microfarad ceramic in parallel with a 10 microfarad tantalum capacitor placed within 5 mm of the pin; do the same for VDIG. The analog and digital grounds must join at the IC's AGND-to-DGND path with a single low-impedance connection to avoid ground-loop noise coupling through the supply pins. Per the Maxim datasheet, analog and digital supplies may be generated from the same 5V source but should be filtered by ferrite beads to isolate digital switching noise.

Place the reference bypass capacitor (4.7 to 22 microfarad low-ESR tantalum or ceramic) directly on the REF pin with a wide, short PCB trace. Analog input traces should not run parallel to or under the digital D0-D11 bus and should be guarded by a ground trace where possible. The buried-zener reference provides low-drift DC stability for 12-bit absolute-accuracy measurements, but its settling time after power-on depends on the bypass capacitor - the recommended 10 microfarad tantalum stabilizes within 100 milliseconds. Keep analog and digital ground planes separate and join them under the IC GND pin only.

The MAX172BEWG's parallel digital output bus can inject switching transients into the analog front-end if not properly isolated. Use the BUSY/INT pin to trigger reads only after the conversion completes - polling the data bus during conversion causes back-driving through internal die capacitance, which can degrade the comparator's INL by 0.1-0.2 LSB on a noisy board. Adding 100 ohm series resistors on D0-D11 close to the ADC output reduces bus ringing when driving capacitive microcontroller traces. If the source impedance of AIN exceeds 1 kilohm, add a wide-bandwidth op-amp buffer to drive the analog input - the sample-and-hold acquisition time is 1.5 microseconds under low-impedance drive.

Do not apply analog input voltages outside the 0V to +5V range (including transients), as the internal ESD diodes clamp at the rails and may permanently degrade linearity. Do not load the REF pin below the datasheet minimum value or with high-capacitance loads - either condition forces the reference away from its nominal voltage and degrades gain error. Avoid using the MAX172BEWG with a 3.3V-only MCU without a level-shifter; the digital interface is TTL-level at +5V and a 3.3V downstream device will see logic-high edges near 5V on the bus, exceeding many modern MCUs' Vih ratings.
