●The MAX147BCPP+ from Maxim Integrated Products is a +2.7V, low power, 8 channel, serial 12bit analogue to digital converter (ADC) in 20 pin DIP package. This 12bit data acquisition system combines an 8 channel multiplexer, high bandwidth track/hold and serial interface with high conversion speed and low power consumption. A serial strobe output allows direct connection to TMS320 family digital signal processors. This device use either the internal clock or an external serial interface clock to perform successive approximation analogue to digital conversion and have a reference buffer amplifier with a ±1.5% voltage adjustment range. It provides a hard wired active-low SHDN pin, a software selectable power-down feature which can be programmed to automatically shut down at the end of a conversion. It is used in portable data logging data acquisition, medical instruments, battery powered instruments, pen digitizers, process control.
