and REFN. In this mode, the voltages at these pins
are set to their nominal values (see Electrical
Characteristics). The reference voltage levels can be
adjusted externally by applying a voltage at REFIN.
This allows other input levels to be used as well. The
full external reference mode is entered when REFIN =
AGND. External voltages can be applied to REFP,
CML, and REFN. In this mode, the internal reference
shuts down, resulting in less overall power consump-
tion.
Clock Input (CLK)
CLK is TTL/CMOS-compatible. Since the interstage
conversion of the device depends on the rising and
falling edges of the external clock, use a clock with low
jitter and fast rise and fall times (<2ns). Low clock jitter
improves SNR performance. The MAX1425 operates
with a 50% duty cycle. If the clock has a duty cycle
other than 50%, the clock must meet the specifications
for high and low periods as stated in the Electrical
Characteristics.
Output Enable/Power-Down Function
(
OE
/PD) and Output Data
All data outputs, D0 through D9, are TTL/CMOS-logic
compatible. There is a 5.5 clock-cycle latency between
the start convert signal and the valid output data. The
output coding for the MAX1425 is in binary two’s com-
plement format, which has the MSB inverted (Table 1).
The digital output goes into a high-impedance state
and the device into a low-power mode when OE/PD
goes high. For normal operation, drive OE low. The out-
puts are not designed to drive high capacitances or
