Overview
The MAX153CAP+T is a high-performance, 8-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) produced by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. This ADC is renowned for its exceptional speed and precision, making it ideal for applications that require quick and accurate data acquisition. With a conversion time of 660ns and a sampling rate of up to 1 million samples per second (Msps), it is well-suited for a variety of high-speed applications. The MAX153CAP+T operates on either a single +5V or dual ±5V power supply, enhancing its versatility and ease of integration into existing systems. An active-low POWERDN pin allows the device to enter a power-down mode, reducing current consumption to a mere 1µA, which is beneficial for energy-efficient designs. The device also features a quick return from power-down to normal operation, ensuring minimal disruption to the system.
