MAX1034/MAX1035
The MAX1034 has eight single-ended analog input
channels or four differential channels (see the
Block
Diagram
at the end of the data sheet). The MAX1035
has four single-ended analog input channels or two dif-
ferential channels. Each analog input channel is inde-
pendently software programmable for seven
single-ended input ranges (0 to +V

) and three differential input ranges (±V

, and ±2 x V

). Additionally, all analog input
channels are fault tolerant to ±6V. A fault condition on
an idle channel does not affect the conversion result of
other channels.
Power Supplies
To maintain a low-noise environment, the MAX1034 and
MAX1035 provide separate power supplies for each
section of circuitry. Table 1 shows the four separate
power supplies. Achieve optimal performance using
separate AVDD1, AVDD2, DVDD, and DVDDO supplies.
Alternatively, connect AVDD1, AVDD2, and DVDD
together as close to the device as possible for a conve-
nient power connection. Connect AGND1, AGND2,
AGND3, DGND, and DGNDO together as close to the
device as possible. Bypass each supply to the corre-
sponding ground using a 0.1µF capacitor (Table 1). If
significant low-frequency noise is present, add a 10µF
capacitor in parallel with the 0.1µF bypass capacitor.
Converter Operation
The MAX1034/MAX1035 ADCs feature a fully differen-
tial, successive-approximation register (SAR) conver-
sion technique and an on-chip T/H block to convert
voltage signals into a 14-bit digital result. Both single-
ended and differential configurations are supported
with programmable unipolar and bipolar signal ranges.
Track-and-Hold Circuitry
The MAX1034/MAX1035 feature a switched-capacitor
T/H architecture that allows the analog input signal to be
stored as charge on sampling capacitors. See Figures 2,
3, and 4 for T/H timing and the sampling instants for
each operating mode. The MAX1034/MAX1035 analog
input circuitry buffers the input signal from the sampling
capacitors, resulting in a constant analog input current
with varying input voltage (Figure 5).

Channel-Select Bits. SEL[2:0] select the analog input channel to be configured (Tables 4 and 5).
Differential or Single-Ended Configuration Bit. DIF/SGL = 0 configures the selected analog input channel
for single-ended operation. DIF/SGL = 1 configures the channel for differential operation. In single-ended
mode, input voltages are measured between the selected input channel and AGND1, as shown in
Table 4. In differential mode, the input voltages are measured between two input channels, as shown in
Table 5. Be aware that changing DIF/SGL adjusts the FSR, as shown in Table 6.
Input-Range-Select Bits. R[2:0] select the input voltage range, as shown in Table 6 and Figure 7.
