The MAX111BCWE+: It carries ROHS3 compliance, which covers the current EU RoHS directive without exemptions.
14-bit sigma-delta at 50 S/s — where it fits
The differential input and internal MUX-ADC configuration let it reject common-mode noise on a two-channel sensor bridge, which is exactly the kind of signal that benefits from the sigma-delta's oversampling.
Single 5V supply, SPI, 16-SOIC
Both the analog and digital supplies run from a single 5V rail — no need for a separate analog LDO or a split supply. That simplifies the board layout and reduces BOM count. The SPI data interface is standard on almost every microcontroller, so hooking it up is a matter of four wires (SCLK, DIN, DOUT, CS). No parallel bus timing to worry about. It comes in a 16-SOIC wide-body package (7.50 mm width) — a common footprint that is easy to hand-solder or reflow. The tube packaging is typical for small quantities; if you need reel, check the alternate order code.
