The MAX86140/MAX86141 are ultra-low-power, completely integrated, optical data acquisition systems. On the transmitter side, the MAX86140/MAX86141 have three programmable high-current LED drivers that can be configured to drive up to six LEDs. With two MAX86140/MAX86141 devices working in master-slave mode, the LED drivers can drive up to twelve LEDs. On the receiver side, MAX86140ENP+ consists of a single optical readout channels, while the MAX86141 has two optical readout channels that can operate simultaneously. The devices have low-noise signal conditioning analog front-end (AFE) including 19-bit ADC, an industry-lead ambient light cancellation (ALC) circuit, and a picket fence detect and replace algorithm. Due to the low power consumption, compact size, easy/flexible-to-use and industry-lead ambient light rejection capability of MAX86140/MAX86141, the devices are ideal for a wide variety of optical-sensing applications, such as pulse oximetry and heart rate detection.
The MAX86140/MAX86141 operate on a 1.8V main supply voltage and a 3.1~5.5V LED driver supply voltage. Both devices support a standard SPI compatible interface and fully autonomous operation. Each device has a large 128-word built-in FIFO. The MAX86140/MAX86141 is available in compact wafer-level package (WLP) (2.048 x 1.848mm) with 0.4mm ball pitch.
