Working Principles

The MAX1180ECM+D is an analog-to-digital converter that converts continuous analog signals into discrete digital data. It utilizes a successive approximation algorithm to determine the digital representation of the input voltage. The internal circuitry compares the input voltage with a reference voltage and generates a binary output based on the comparison result. This process is repeated for each sample at a high sampling rate, resulting in a stream of digital data.
