Ultrasonic Distance-Measuring System
Figures 6 and 7 show the equivalent input circuit of the
MAXQ7667 analog input architecture. During acquisi-
tion (track), a sampling capacitor charges to the posi-
tive input voltage at AIN0–AIN4 in single-ended mode
or AIN0 and AIN2 in differential mode while a second
sampling capacitor connects to AGND in single-ended
mode or AIN1 and AIN3 in differential mode. The ADC
conversion start source and the ADC dual mode selec-
tion bits control the T/H timing.
The MAXQ7667 supports three possible voltage refer-
ence sources for ADC conversion; 2.5V internal
buffered bandgap reference, external source, and
AVDD. The internal 2.5V bandgap reference has high
initial accuracy and temperature coefficient of typically
less than 100ppm/°C. When operating in internal refer-
ence mode, either the buffered output of the internal
reference or AVDD connects to the SAR ADC while the
buffered output of the internal reference connects to the
sigma-delta ADC. When operating in external reference
mode, an external source ranging between 1V and
V

capacitor for optimum performance. See Section 14 of
the MAXQ7667 User’s Guide .
The MAXQ7667’s schedule timer provides general time-
keeping and software synchronization to an external I/O.
The schedule timer features include the following:
