MAX1114AIBH

8-Bit, 150Msps Flash ADC

Maxim Integrated 

8-Bit, 150Msps Flash ADC

Reference Inputs VRBF, VRBS, VR1, VR2,

VR3, VRTF, VRTS (CERQUAD package only)

These are five external reference voltage taps from -2V

(VRBF) to AGND (VRTF) which can be used to control

integral linearity over temperature. The taps can be driv-

en by op amps (Figure 2). These voltage level inputs

can be bypassed to AGND for further noise suppres-

sion, if so desired. VRB and VRT have force and sense

pins for monitoring the top and bottom voltage refer-

ences.

Not Connected (N.C.)

All N.C. pins should be tied to DGND on the left side of

the package and to AGND on the right side of the

package.

Data Ready and Data-Ready Inverse

DREADY, DRINV (CERQUAD package only)

The data-ready pin is a flag that goes high or low at the

output when data is valid or ready to be received. It is

essentially a delay line that accounts for the time nec-

essary for information to be clocked through the

MAX1114’s decoders and latches. This function is use-

ful for interfacing with high-speed memory. Using the

data-ready output to latch the output data ensures mini-

mum setup and hold times. DRINV is a data-ready

inverse control pin (Figure 3).

Overrange Input D8

(CERQUAD package only)

When the MAX1114 is in an overrange condition, D8

goes high and all data outputs go high as well. This

makes it possible to include the MAX1114 in higher res-

olution systems.

Operation

The MAX1114 has 256 preamp/comparator pairs that

are each supplied with the voltage from VRTF to VRBF

divided equally by the resistive ladder as shown in the

Functional Diagram. This voltage is applied to the posi-

tive input of each preamplifier/comparator pair. An ana-

log input voltage applied at VIN is connected to the

negative inputs of each preamplifier/comparator pair.

The comparator states are then clocked through each

comparator's individual clock buffer. When CLK is low,

the master, or input stage, of the comparators com-

pares the analog input voltage to the respective refer-

ence voltage. When CLK changes from low to high, the

comparators are latched to the state prior to the clock

transition and output logic codes in sequence from the

top comparators, closest to VRTF (0V), down to the

point where the magnitude of the input signal changes

sign (thermometer code). The output of each compara-

tor is then registered into four 64-to-6 bit decoders

when CLK is changed from high to low. At the

decoders' output is a set of four 7-bit latches that are

enabled (track) when CLK changes from high to low.

From here, the outputs of the latches are coded into 6

LSBs from 4 columns and 4 columns are coded into 2

MSBs. Next are the MINV and LINV controls for output

inversions that consist of a set of eight XOR gates.

Finally, 8 ECL output latches and buffers are used to

drive the external loads. The conversion takes one

clock cycle from the input to the data outputs.

_________________Evaluation Boards

The MAX1114/MAX1125 evaluation kit (EV kit) demon-

strates the full performance of the MAX1114. This

board includes a voltage reference circuit, clock driver

circuit, output data latches and an on-board recon-

struction of the digital data. A separate EV kit manual

describing the operation of this board is also available.
