Bipolar ±5V Devices
Table 6 and Figure 13 show the two’s complement trans-
fer function for the ±5V input range MAX1308/MAX1309/
MAX1310. The FSR is four times the voltage at REF. The
internal +2.5V reference gives a +10V FSR, while an
external +2V to +3V reference allows an FSR of +8V to
+12V respectively. Calculate the LSB size using:
which equals 2.44mV when using a 2.5V reference.
The input range is centered about V
MSV
. Normally,
MSV = AGND, and the input is symmetrical about zero.
For a custom midscale voltage, drive MSV with an
external voltage source. Noise present on MSV directly
couples into the ADC result. Use a precision, low-drift
voltage reference with adequate bypassing to prevent
MSV from degrading ADC performance. For maximum
FSR, do not violate the absolute maximum voltage rat-
ings of the analog inputs when choosing MSV.
