MAXIM MAX101 500Msps 8-Bit ADC with Track/Hold handbook
Update: 28 September, 2023
The MAX101 is an ECL-compatible ADC with a sampling rate of 500Msps and 8-bit resolution. It accurately digitizes analog signals from DC to 250MHz (Nyquist frequency). The MAX101 is designed using Maxim's proprietary advanced bipolar processes and features a high-performance T/H amplifier and two quantizers. The innovative design of the internal T/H ensures an exceptionally wide 1.2GHz input bandwidth and aperture delay uncertainty of less than 2ps, resulting in a high 7.0 effective bits at the Nyquist frequency. Special comparator output design and decoding circuitry reduce out-of-sequence code errors. The probability of erroneous codes due to metastable states is reduced to less than 1 error per 10^15 clock cycles. Unlike other ADCs that can have errors resulting in false full-scale or zero-scale outputs, the MAX101 keeps the error magnitude to less than 1LSB. The analog input is designed for either differential or single-ended use with a ±270mV range. Sense pins for the reference input allow full-scale calibration of the input range or facilitate ratiometric use. Phase adjustment is available to optimize the relative sampling of the converter halves. Input clock phasing is also available for interleaving several MAX101s for higher effective sampling rates.
