The MAX1233/MAX1234 are complete PDA controllers in 5mm x 5mm, 28-pin QFN and TQFN packages. They feature a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), low on-resistance switches for driving resistive touch screens, an internal +1.0V/+2.5V or external reference, ±2°C accurate, on-chip temperature sensor, direct +6V battery monitor, keypad controller, 8-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and a synchronous serial interface. Each of the keypad controllers' eight row and column inputs can be reconfigured as general-purpose parallel I/O pins (GPIO). All analog inputs are fully ESD protected, eliminating the need for external TransZorb™ devices.
The MAX1233/MAX1234 offer programmable resolution and sampling rates. Interrupts from the devices alert the host processor when data is ready, when the screen is touched, or a key press is detected. Software-configurable scan control and internal timers give the user flexibility without burdening the host processor. These devices consume only 260µA at the maximum sampling rate of 50ksps. Supply current falls to below 50µA for sampling rates of 10ksps. The MAX1233/MAX1234 are guaranteed over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
