ADC parametrics for signal-chain fit
The MAX11616EEE+T: 12-bit SAR architecture with a 94.4k SPS sampling rate — the conversion time per channel is about 10.6 µs, setting the bandwidth ceiling for multiplexed measurements. Six differential or 12 single-ended inputs via an internal MUX, configurable through the I²C interface — the input type determines the common-mode rejection available in the measurement path. Both external and internal reference options are supported, with a 5 V analog and digital supply — the single 5 V rail simplifies power distribution on the board.
Supplied in a 16-pin QSOP (0.154-inch wide, 3.90 mm body) — the narrow footprint suits space-constrained designs, with a 0.025-inch lead pitch that routes easily on two-layer boards.
