General Description
The MAX11043 features 4 single-ended or differential
channels of simultaneous-sampling ADCs with 16-bit
resolution. The MAX11043 contains a versatile filter
block and programmable-gain amplifier (PGA) per
channel. The filter consists of seven cascaded 2nd-
order filter sections for each channel, allowing the con-
struction of a 14th-order filter. The filter coefficients are
user-programmable. Configure each 2nd-order filter as
lowpass (LP), highpass (HP), or bandpass (BP) with
optional rectification. Gain and phase mismatch of the
analog signal path is better than -50dB.
The ADC can digitize signals up to 200kHz. A 40MHz
serial interface provides communication to and from the
device. The SPI interface provides throughput of
1600ksps; 4 channels at 400ksps per channel or 2
channels at 800ksps per channel. A software-selec-
table scan mode allows reading the ADC results while
simultaneously updating the DAC. Other features of the
MAX11043 include an internal (+2.5V) or external
(+2.0V to +2.8V) reference, power-saving modes, and
a PGA with gains of 1 to 64. The PGA includes an
equalizer (EQ) function that automatically boosts low-
amplitude, high-frequency signals for applications such
as CW-chirp radar.
The MAX11043 includes two 8-bit coarse DACs that set
the high and low references for a second-stage 12-bit
fine DAC, typically used for VCO control. Use software
controls to write to the DAC or step the DAC up and
down under hardware control in programmable steps.
The device operates from a +3.0V to +3.6V supply. The
MAX11043 is available in a 40-pin, 6mm x 6mm TQFN
package and operates over the extended -40°C to
+125°C temperature range.

Note 1: Devices 100% production tested at TA= +125°C. Guaranteed by design and characterization to TA= -40°C.
Note 2: Full scale in analog EQ mode decreases with increasing frequency at a rate of 20dB/decade from 8kHz. If digital EQ is also
used, full scale decreases with increasing frequency at 40dB/decade from 5kHz.
Note 3: SFDR in the EQ mode is normalized to the input by subtracting the analog EQ gain at each frequency (20dB/decade) from
the FFT results.
Note 4: The absolute input voltage range is 0 to AVDD. For optimal performance, use a common-mode voltage of AVDD/2.
Note 5: Switched capacitor input impedance is proportional to 1/fC. Where f is the sampling frequency and C is the input capacitance.

MAX11043
4-Channel, 16-Bit, Simultaneous-Sampling ADCs
with PGA, Filter, and 8-/12-Bit Dual-Stage DAC
12 Maxim Integrated
Detailed Description
The MAX11043 features 4 single-ended or differential
channels of simultaneous-sampling ADCs with 16-bit
resolution. The MAX11043 contains a versatile filter
block and PGA per channel. The filter consists of seven
cascaded 2nd-order filter sections for each channel
allowing the construction of a 14th-order filter. The filter
coefficients are user-programmable. Configure each
2nd-order filter as a LP filter, HP filter, or BP filter with
optional rectification. Gain and phase mismatch of the
analog signal path is better than -50dB.
The ADCs can digitize signals up to 200kHz. A 40MHz
serial interface provides communication to and from the
device. The SPI interface provides throughput of
1600ksps; 4 channels at 400ksps per channel or 2
channels at 800ksps per channel. A software-selec-
table scan mode allows reading the ADC results while
simultaneously updating the DAC. Other features of the
MAX11043 include an internal (+2.5V) or external
(+2.0V to +2.8V) reference, power-saving modes, and
a PGA with gains of 1 to 64. The PGA includes an EQ
function that automatically boosts low-amplitude, high-
frequency signals for applications such as CW-chirp
radar.
The MAX11043 includes two 8-bit coarse DACs that set
the high and low references for a second-stage 12-bit
fine DAC, typically used for VCO control. Use software
controls to set the DAC, or step the DAC up and down
using hardware control in programmable steps.
MAX11043 Signal Path
Each of the 4 ADC channels features a PGA and filter
block that feeds the signal to the sigma-delta modula-
tor. The PGA can either be bypassed, which provides a
gain of 1, set to a gain of 8, a gain of 16, or set to ana-
log EQ mode. For more amplification, set the ADC mod-
ulator gain to one, two, or four. After the modulator, the
result passes through the sinc 5 filter and decimator.
Seven biquad programmable digital filters isolate the
band of interest. Read the result using the 40MHz SPI
interface. See Figure 1.
Analog-to-Digital Converter
The MAX11043 features a quad sigma-delta ADC archi-
tecture with 4 differential input channels. For single-
ended operation, connect the N input to the
common-mode voltage or bypass to AGND with a 10µF
capacitor. All inputs feature a programmable bias gen-
erator; see the
CONFIG_ Register (0Ch–0Fh)
section.
All four ADCs convert simultaneously with a maximum
modulator sampling rate of 9.6Msps; decimated by 12
or 24 for output rates of 800ksps and 400ksps, respec-
tively. The SPI bus limits the maximum output data rate
to 40Mbps.
Sinc 5 Filter
The sinc 5 filter removes high-frequency noise from the
output of the sigma-delta modulator and sets the upper
frequency response of the ADC. It also decimates the
modulator data by a factor of 12, providing a maximum
of 800ksps to the programmable filters when the modu-
lator is operating at 9.6Msps. Figure 2 shows the fre-
quency characteristics of the sinc 5 filter with the

modulator running at 9.6Msps. Operating the modulator
at a lower sample rate causes a proportional reduction
in the frequency response of the sinc 5 filter. The total
attenuation of the MAX11043 is the sum of the analog
filtering, the sinc 5 filter, and the seven stages of pro-
grammable filters.
Equalizer (EQ)
The EQ matches the frequency/gain characteristics of
CW-chirp radar systems where the distance to the tar-
get is proportional to the measured frequency. Distant
targets not only have a higher frequency, they have a
weaker signal. Hence, higher frequencies need more
amplification than lower frequencies. The EQ provides
gain proportional to frequencies up to 190kHz, at which
point the gain rolls off at 80dB/decade.
The EQ consists of an analog section in the PGA and a
digital EQ created from the biquad filters. The analog
EQ (PGA) provides 20dB/decade of gain and the
default digital EQ provides an additional 20dB/decade
of gain. Together they provide 40dB/decade of gain up
to 190kHz with a gain of 0dB at 5kHz.
Variations in the manufacturing process affect the gain
and phase of the analog filter. Compensation for these
variations include adjustments to the digital filter during
the manufacture of the MAX11043. Use the analog and
digital EQs together for optimal performance.
Conversion and ADC Reading
Drive CONVRUN high to initiate a continuous conver-
sion on all 4 channels. Keep CONVRUN high for the
entire conversion process. Do not pulse CONVRUN.
EOC asserts low when new data is available. Initiate a
data read prior to the next rising edge of EOC or the
result is overwritten. EOC asserts high upon read com-
pletion of all active channels. Use ConfigA, ConfigB,
ConfigC, and ConfigD registers to read single channel
data. Concatenated data is available in the ADCAB,
ADCCD, and ADCABCD registers. Use concatenated
registers to ensure simultaneous results are read. See
the
Register Functions
section for more details.
A software-selectable scan mode automatically sends
the result from selected channels following the CS
falling edge and allows other registers to be simultane-
ously updated. To enable scan mode, set SCHAN_ bits
high. See the
Configuration Register (08h)
section for a
detailed description. The ADC output is presented in
two’s complement format (Figure 3).
Digital Filter
Seven cascaded, individually configurable, 2nd-order
filter elements make up the digital filter. Figure 4 shows
the structure of a single filter section. Configure these
elements as LP, BP, HP, or all pass (AP) filters with
optional rectification. Filter configuration is transferred
from the flash to coefficient RAM (C-RAM) on power-up.
Store custom filters permanently in the flash or write
directly to C-RAM each time on power-up. Two sepa-
rate sets of programmable coefficients exist for each
filter. Dual coefficient sets allow rapid filter reconfigura-
tion. These filter coefficients are programmed to LP and
EQ modes at the factory. Multiple flash memory pages
exist so that custom filters can be created while pre-
serving factory-programmed filter coefficients.

coefficients A2 and A3 are stored as -A2 and -A3.
Gain is limited to the following values 24, 22, 20, 2-2, 2-4,
2-6, 2-8, and 2-10. For better gain resolution, adjust the
Fine Gain A/B/C/D Registers at the input of each filter
set. Fine gain adjustment has a resolution of 16 bits and
a gain range of -4 to +4. Set the RECT bit to rectify the
filter output.

Programmable Gain Amplifier
Each ADC channel features an input buffer with input
impedance of at least 5kand programmable gain of
eight or 16. When set to a gain of one, the signal
bypasses the PGA to reduce noise.
The PGA features an optional 20dB/decade analog EQ
mode, with a gain of 0dB near 8kHz and attenuation
above 190kHz to reduce out-of-band noise. Using the
digital EQ filter adds another 20dB/decade of gain and
sets the 0dB frequency to 5kHz. Control the EQ and
PGA gain from their respective CONFIG_ registers. For
additional filtering and equalization, use the integrated
digital filters.
Digital-to-Analog Converter
The MAX11043 features a 12-bit fine DAC with high and
low reference inputs set by the 8-bit, dual tap coarse DAC
or driven externally. The output buffer of the fine DAC has
a gain of two and can drive 10kand 200pF in parallel.
Bypass the REFDACH and REFDACL with a 1µF capaci-
tor when using the coarse DAC to set the reference
values, or power down the buffers and drive REFDACH
and REFDACL with external references. Alternatively
drive one of the fine DAC references using the coarse
DAC and the other using an external reference.
The fine DAC register contains the current value of the
output. The output value changes by writing to this reg-
ister or by the rising edge of the DACSTEP input. The
DAC register updates on the next rising edge of the
system clock following the rising edge of the DACSTEP
input. The programmable DACSTEP register contains
the step size. The UP/DWN input sets the direction of
the step. Drive UP/DWN high to step up, drive low to
step down.
The coarse 8-bit, dual tap DAC generates the high and
low reference values for the fine DAC. Obtain the
coarse DAC reference from the main reference or by
driving the REFDAC input externally. The main refer-
ence, REFBP, is divided by two before the coarse DAC.
When driving REFDAC, REFDACH, or REFDACL direct-
ly, ensure the voltage to the fine DAC does not exceed
AVDD/2 to prevent the output amplifier from saturating.

Reference (REFBP)
The MAX11043 features an internal 2.5V bandgap ref-
erence. Bypass REFBP with a 1µF capacitor or power
down the buffer amplifier and drive REFBP with an
external reference. In internal reference mode, REFBP
provides the main reference voltage for the MAX11043.
Refer to www.maximintegrated.com/references for a
list of available precision references.
In addition to the integrated main reference, there are
seven separate references derived from REFBP, one for
each ADC channel, one for the coarse DAC, and two
(one high and one low) for the fine DAC. When using
the main reference, bypass each of the references with
a 1µF capacitor or set the appropriate bits (7–0), in the
reference (10h) register, to power down the references
and drive externally. Use external references capable
of driving a 700µA or total load.
Clock Sources
The MAX11043 features an internal 16MHz oscillator
that supports either an external crystal or ceramic res-
onator. For highest performance, set bit 15 in the con-
figuration register to 1 and use an external clock (EX
clock) source, up to 40MHz, to drive OSCIN. A pro-
grammable clock divider divides the EX clock by 2, 3,
4, or 6 to generate the ADC sample clock. The system
clock, used for all digital timing, is twice the ADC sam-
ple clock. Ensure that the minimum EX clock high or
low time is greater than 25ns when using the divide-by-
2 or divide-by-3 mode.
The system clock, used for all internal timing, is derived
from the clock divider setting and the input clock.
For optimal performance, derive the SPI clock and sys-
tem clock from the same source.
Power Saving
The MAX11043 features an active-high power-down
input, as well as an SPI-controlled power-down bit that
places the MAX11043 in low-power mode. In addition,
the MAX11043 features an independent, SPI-controlled,
power-down for each ADC channel, the DAC, and the
oscillator. See the
Configuration Register (08h)
section
for more details.
Serial Communication
The SPI-compatible interface allows synchronous serial
data transfers up to 40Mbps. The bandwidth is divided
between the DACs and the ADC. Maximum conversion
throughput depends on which read commands are
used. The highest conversion rates are obtained by
using the scan mode. The second highest rate is
obtained by reading concatenated registers. The slow-
est method is to read the results individually.
Configure the SPI master for SCLK to idle low (SCLK is
low when CS is asserted). The data at DIN is latched on
the rising edge of SCLK. Data at DOUT transitions
immediately after the rising edge of SCLK.
All SPI transactions start with a command byte. The
command byte selects the address of the register and
the mode of operation (read/write).

SCHAN_<4:1>: Automatic ADC result output for each
channel (A, B, C, and D).
1 = ADC channel data is output on DOUT each time a
new result is valid in the sequence, A, B, C, and D.
0 = ADC data is not presented automatically for this
channel (default).
When SCHAN_ = 1, the selected ADC channel data is
automatically presented on DOUT each time EOC
asserts low in the sequence A, B, C, and D with the
unselected channels omitted. The data transitions on
the rising edge of SCLK. Force CS low to initiate trans-
mission. CS can go high between results. The MSB of
the first selected ADC channel outputs immediately
after the falling edge of EOC. EOC goes high after the
last bit of the selected channels clocks out or one clock
cycle before the next result is ready. Insufficient SCLK
pulses result in truncated data. Extra clock pulses give
an undefined output. In scan mode, keep DIN high or
write data to the MAX11043 as usual. In scan mode,
the MAX11043 ignores requests for data reads.
DECSEL<0>: Decimate select.
1 = decimate by 12.
0 = decimate by 24 (default).
Set DECSEL high to decimate the ADC result by 12,

PURGE4:PURGE0<12:8>: Filter purge interval.
Straight binary.
00h = first available sample is presented (default).
1Fh = 31 results are discarded.
Digital filters retain a history of past input data. At
power-up and when changing the signal path, old data
requires purging before new output data is valid.
PURGE4(MSB):PURGE0 determine the number of sam-
ples to discard before a new result is valid. Each time
CONVRUN is taken high, N results are discarded
before EOC asserts low (where N is the decimal equiva-
lent of the binary representation of PURGE4:PURGE0).
Results prior to N+1 are overwritten. EOC asserts for
results N+1, N+2, N+3, etc., as long as CONVRUN
remains high. Taking CONVRUN low and then high
invokes another purge.
Purging of the sinc 5 filter requires five readings if
DECSEL (configuration register 08h, bit 0) = 1 and
three readings if DECSEL = 0. The minimum total purge
interval of the seven cascaded filters is one reading if
not used. If the filters are used, the total latency of the
programmable filters is the sum of the latency caused
by each stage. Set the appropriate delay for filter purg-
ing and settling time.

Flash and C-RAM Register Map
The flash memory consists of 2048 words by 16 bits. The
3 MSBs of the flash address select one of eight pages of
256 words each. Page zero contains the default filter
coefficients for channels A and B. Page one contains the
default filter coefficients for channels C and D. Use
pages two and three for the coefficients of custom filters.
When the first word on page two contains a nonzero
value, the MAX11043 loads these pages into C-RAM at
power-up instead of the default values from pages zero
and one. Flash pages zero and one include trim data.
Unique trim data optimizes the performance of each
MAX11043. Coefficients for the stage 1 filters and ADC
gain are individually programmed at the factory to com-
pensate for manufacturing variations in the analog por-
tion of the IC. These coefficients vary depending on the
PGA gain setting and if the analog equalizer is used. To
allow for these different modes, several sets of stage 1
coefficients are stored in flash. Bits in the CONGIF reg-
ister select which set of stage 1 coefficients are used.
Table 3 shows the C-RAM addresses used for each
CONFIG setting. To maintain optimum performance
when using custom filters, copy the trim data from flash
pages zero and one to the corresponding locations in
flash pages two and three or to C-RAM when writing
directly to C-RAM.
For custom filters, use stages 2–7 first, and only change
the stage 1 coefficients when all seven stages require
customization.
To load the coefficients directly to C-RAM, create a 32-
bit data word by concatenating the data in adjacent
flash locations as shown in Table 3. The C-RAM
addresses below are for channel A; for channel B add
40h, for channel C add 80h, and for channel D add C0h.
Multiple addresses exist for some stage 1 filter coeffi-
cients as shown in Table 4. The address accessed by
the filter depends on the configuration bits as shown in
Table 3.

Flash Erase and Programming
When erasing or programming the flash, maintain the
system clock between 14MHz and 27MHz to satisfy
flash timing requirements and ensure CONVRUN = 0.
The system clock used for all digital timing is twice the
ADC sample clock (2 x EX clock/divider).
Always erase the flash page before writing new data.
The procedure for flash mass erase is as follows:
1) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero.
2) Write 0000h to the flash address register (19h).
3) Write 60h to the flash mode register (18h).
4) Wait 200ms for erase to complete.
5) FFFFh = flash erased state.
The procedure for flash single page erase is as follows:
1) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero.
2) Write page address, set word address to 00h in the
flash address register (19h).
3) Write 40h to the flash mode register (18h).
4) Wait 20ms for page erase to complete.
5) FFFFh = flash erased state.
The procedure for flash single word write is as follows:
1) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero.
2) Write page and word address to the flash address
register (19h).
3) Write the data to the flash data in register (1Ah).
4) Write 20h to the flash mode register (18h).
5) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero (approx. 40µs).
The procedure for flash single word read is as follows:
1) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero.
2) Write page and word address to the flash address
register (19h).
3) Write A0h to the flash mode register (18h).
4) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero (approx. 1µs).
5) Read the data from the flash data out register (1Bh).
The procedure for flash to C-RAM transfer is as follows:
1) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero.
2) Write C0h to the flash mode register (18h).
3) Read the flash mode register (18h); proceed when
the LSB is zero (approx. 1ms).
4) The content of flash is transferred to C-RAM.

A2, A3, and B2 Filter Coefficient
Format (52h, 54h, 56h)
Filter coefficients A2, A3, and B2 are stored as 16-bit
two’s complement values in the -4 to (4 - 2-13) range.
The transfer function equation is as follows:
A2 = int (N x 213)
where N is the decimal coefficient value.
The following are two examples of the transfer function
equation:
Example 1:
N = 2.381
A2 = int (2.381 x 213)
A2 = int (19505.152)
A2 = 19505 = 4C31h (two’s complement)
Example 2:
N = -2.381
A2 = int (-2.381 x 213)
A2 = int (-19505.152)
A2 = -19505 = B3CFh (two’s complement)

Power Supplies, Layout, and
Bypassing Considerations
For best performance, use PCBs with ground planes.
Ensure that digital and analog signal lines are separat-
ed from each other. Do not run analog and digital lines
parallel to one another (especially clock lines), and do
not run digital lines underneath the MAX11043 pack-
age. Use a single-point analog ground (star ground
point) at AGND, separate from the logic ground.
Connect all other analog grounds and DGND to this
star ground point. Do not connect other digital system
grounds to this single-point analog ground. The ground
return to the power supply for this ground should be
low impedance and as short as possible for noise-free
operation. Bypass all supplies to ground with high
quality capacitors as close as possible to the device.
