Universal Input Reference Design Provides Accuracy and Flexibility for Industrial Sensors

San Jose, CA—November 16, 2015—Industrial automation engineers can now achieve highly accurate measurements for their system designs with the MAXREFDES67# analog front end (AFE) universal input Micro PLC reference design from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM).

For more information about MAXREFDES67#, visit http://bit.ly/MAXREFDES67.

As high-resolution systems move to higher bit counts, they become more sensitive to noise, making such systems difficult to build and maintain accuracy. MAXREFDES67# is a unique 24-bit AFE reference design that overcomes this challenge. Capable of accepting four different signals, … Read More → "Universal Input Reference Design Provides Accuracy and Flexibility for Industrial Sensors"
