MAX195
If ±15V supplies are unavailable, Figure 16’s circuit
works very well with the ±5V analog supplies used by
the MAX195. The MAX410 has a minimum ±3.5V com-
mon-mode input range, with a similar output voltage
swing, which allows use of a reference voltage up to
3.5V. The offset voltage (250µV) is about 2LSB. The
drift (1µV/°C), unity-gain bandwidth (28MHz), and low
voltage noise (2.4nV/Hz) are appropriate for 16-bit
performance.
Operating Modes and SPI/QSPI Interfaces
The two basic interface modes are defined according
to whether serial data is received during the conversion
(clocked with CLK, SCLK unused) or in bursts between
conversions (clocked with SCLK). Each mode is pre-
sented interfaced to a QSPI processor, but is also com-
patible with SPI.
Mode 1 (Simultaneous
Conversion and Data Transfer)
In this mode, each data bit is read from the MAX195
during the conversion as it is determined. SCLK is
grounded and CLK is used as both the conversion
clock and the serial data clock. Figure 17 shows a
QSPI processor connected to the MAX195 for use in
this mode and Figure 18 is the associated timing dia-
gram.
In addition to the standard QSPI interface signals, gen-
eral I/O lines are used to monitor EOC and to drive
BP/UP/SHDN and RESET. The two general output pins
may not be necessary for a given application and, if I/O
lines are unavailable, the EOC connection can be omit-
ted as well.
The EOC signal is monitored during calibration to
determine when calibration is finished and before
beginning a conversion to ensure the MAX195 is not in
mid-conversion, but it is possible for a system to ignore
EOC completely. On power-up or after pulsing RESET
low, the µP must provide 14,000 CLK cycles to com-
plete the calibration sequence (Figure 2). One way to
do this is to toggle CLK and monitor EOC until it goes
low, but it is possible to simply count 14,000 CLK
cycles to complete the calibration. Similarly, it is
unnecessary to check the status of EOC before begin-
ning a conversion if you are sure the last conversion is
complete. This can be done by ensuring that every
conversion consists of at least 20 CLK cycles.
Data is clocked out of the MAX195 on CLK’s falling
edge and can be clocked into the µP on the rising
edge or the following falling edge. If you clock data in
on the rising edge (SPI/QSPI with CPOL = 0 and CPHA
= 0; standard MicroWire™: Hitachi H8), the maximum
CLK rate is given by:
where t
CD
is the MAX195’s CLK-to-DOUT valid delay
and t
SD
is the data setup time for your µP.

If clocking data in on the falling edge (CPOL = 0,
CPHA = 1), the maximum CLK rate is given by:
Do not exceed the maximum CLK frequency given in
the
Electrical Characteristics
table. To clock data in on
the falling edge, your processor hold time must not
exceed t
CD
minimum (100ns).
While QSPI can provide the required 20 CLK cycles as
two continuous 10-bit transfers, SPI is limited to 8-bit
transfers. This means that with SPI, a conversion must
consist of three 8-bit transfers. Ensure that the pauses
between 8-bit operations at your selected clock rate
are short enough to maintain a 20ms or shorter conver-
sion time, or the leakage of the capacitive DAC may
cause errors.
Complete source code for the Motorola 68HC16 and
the MAX195 evaluation kit (EV kit) using this mode is
available with the MAX195 EV kit.
Mode 2 (Asynchronous Data Transfer)
This mode uses a conversion clock (CLK) and a serial
clock (SCLK). The serial data is clocked out between
conversions, which reduces the maximum throughput
for high CLK rates, but may be more convenient for
some applications. Figure 19 is a block diagram with a
QSPI processor (Motorola 68HC16) connected to the
MAX195. Figure 20 shows the associated timing dia-
gram. Figure 21 gives an assembly language listing for
this arrangement.

MAX195
An OR gate is used to synchronize the “start” signal to
the asynchronous CLK, as described in the
External
Clock
section. As with Mode 1, the QSPI processor must
run CLK during calibration and either count CLK cycles
or, as is done here, monitor EOC to determine when cal-
ibration is complete. Also, EOC is polled by the µP to
determine when a conversion result is available. When
EOC goes low, data is clocked out at the highest QSPI
data rate (4.19Mbps). After the data is transferred, a
new conversion can be initiated whenever desired.
The timing specification for SCLK-to-DOUT valid (t
SD
)
imposes some constraints on the serial interface. At
SCLK rates up to 2.5Mbps, data is clocked out of the
MAX195 by a falling edge of SCLK and may be
clocked into the µP by the next rising edge (CPOL = 0,
CPHA = 0). For data rates greater than 2.5Mbps (or for
lower rates, if desired) it is necessary to clock data out
of the MAX195 on SCLK’s falling edge and to clock it
into the µP on SCLK’s next falling edge (CPOL = 0,
CPHA = 1). Also, your processor hold time must not
exceed t
SD
minimum (20ns). As with CLK in mode 1,
maximum SCLK rates may not be possible with some
interface specifications that are subsets of SPI.
Supplies, Layout, Grounding
and Bypassing
For best system performance, use printed circuit
boards with separate analog and digital ground planes.
Wire-wrap boards are not recommended. The two
ground planes should be tied together at the low-
impedance power-supply source and at the MAX195
(Figure 22.) If the analog and digital supplies come
from the same source, isolate the digital supply from
the analog supply with a low-value resistor (10).
Constraints on sequencing the four power supplies are
as follows.
Apply VDDA before VDDD.
Apply VSSA before VSSD.
Apply AIN and REF after VDDA and VSSA are present.
The power supplies should settle within the
MAX195’s power-on delay (minimum 500ns) or you
should recalibrate the converter (pulse RESET low)
before use.
