Overview
The MAX11608EEE+T, produced by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, is a low-power, multichannel analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designed for high-performance and low-power applications. This device is part of the MAX11606–MAX11611 family, which features 10-bit resolution and a variety of channel configurations. The MAX11608 specifically offers 8 analog input channels, making it suitable for a range of data acquisition and control systems.
The MAX11608 operates from a single supply voltage of 2.7V to 3.6V or 4.5V to 5.5V, depending on the model variant, and consumes only 670µA at the maximum sampling rate of 94.4ksps. It also features an AutoShutdown™ mode that reduces supply current to less than 1µA at low throughput rates, making it energy-efficient for various applications.
