Data acquisition systems shrink to tiny
packages
Housed in small 8-pin microMAX packages, the MAX1272 and MAX1273 single-channel, multirange, 12bit data-acquisition systems operate from single 5V supplies and convert at 87.5Ksample/s.
Housed in small 8-pin microMAX packages, the MAX1272 and MAX1273 single-channel, multirange, 12bit data-acquisition systems operate from single 5V supplies and convert at 87.5Ksample/s With four software-selectable input ranges, the MAX1272 accepts +/-10, +/-5, 0-10 and 0-5V input signals, whereas the MAX1273 accepts +/-Vref, +/-Vref/2, 0 to Vref and 0 to Vref/2

Speedy DAC claims dynamic superiority for comms
The MAX5195 is a 14bit 260Msample/s DAC claimed to provide the world's best dynamic performance in spurious-free dynamic range, intermodulation distortion and signal to noise ratio.
The MAX1272 and MAX1273 are ideal for industrial control systems, data-acquisition systems, robotics, and medical instrumentation.
The MAX1272 and MAX1273 incorporate input fault protection, an internal track and hold with an input bandwidth of 5MHz, and an internal 4.096V reference.
Software-selectable input-range switching increases the effective dynamic range to 14bit and enables these parts to measure input signals as large as +/-10V while operating from a +5V single supply.
The MAX1272 and MAX1273 interface directly to SPI/QSPI and Microwire devices without additional circuitry.
Software-selectable power-down modes result in currents as low as 1uA between conversions.
The MAX1272/MAX1273 are available in the commercial (0 to 70C) and extended (-40 to +85C) temperature ranges.
Prices start at $6.98 (1000-up, FOB USA).
