MAX1474AXT-T
Miniature Electronically Trimmable Capacitor
General Description
The MAX1474 is a fine-line (geometry) electronically trim-
mable capacitor (FLECAP) programmable through a
simple digital interface. There are 32 programmable
capacitance values ranging from 6.4pF to 13.3pF in
0.22pF increments (Table 1). The quartz dielectric
capacitance is highly stable and exhibits a very low volt-
age coefficient. It has virtually no dielectric absorption
and has a very low temperature drift coefficient
(<33ppm/°C). The MAX1474 is programmed through two
digital interface pins, which have Schmidt triggers and
pulldown resistors to secure capacitance programming.

MAX1474
Detailed Description

The MAX1474 consists of a binary-weighted array of
capacitors that can be switched in and out of parallel to
provide 32 monotonic steps. The switches implement-
ed allow the DC bias of either terminal of the capacitor
to be anywhere from ground to the supply voltage.
There is no inherent polarity. The signal swing range is
limited to 300mV above VDDand 300mV below VSS.
Therefore, if a large-signal swing range is desired, care
must be taken to bias the terminal(s) requiring high
swing capability near midsupply.
If the capacitance is measured differentially from one
terminal to the other, the greatest min/max ratio of the
binary array can be realized, allowing tuning from
0.42pF to 10.9pF in 0.34pF steps. If one terminal is
grounded, and the capacitance is measured to ground,
the parasitics inherent in the package will become
lumped with the switched array, allowing tuning from
6.4pF to 13.3pF in 0.22pF steps. When using the
MAX1474, it is recommended for optimal performance
to connect the CM terminal to the lowest impedance
node (i.e., ground or supply if possible) and CP to the
higher impedance node (i.e., the resonant node in a
ground-referenced LC tank circuit).
Digital Interface

The digital interface sets the desired capacitance
value. There are only two pins, EN and DAT, required
for this operation. EN is an active-high control signal.

MAX1474
Miniature Electronically Trimmable Capacitor

While EN is asserted, the internal counter counts posi-
tive edges of DAT. The number of sequential pulses on
DAT determines the capacitance setting. As EN is de-
asserted, the counter value is latched into the capaci-
tance control registers first, and then the counter is set
to zero. The programmed capacitance value then
appears between CP and CM. During the period when
EN is asserted, the capacitance value between CP and
CM stays unchanged. Figure 1 is a digital timing dia-
gram.
Q Enhancement Circuit

Since the capacitors have the multiplexer series resis-
tance associated with them, the quality factor of the
trimmable capacitors is not high. For example, a 10pF
capacitor only has a theoretical Q of about 10 at
315MHz with 5Ωseries resistance. As in Figure 2, an
impedance transformer-like circuit is needed to over-
come this low Q. With this circuit, a much higher Q is
achievable using high-Q external capacitors. This con-
figuration allows a tuning range of approximately
314MHz to 319MHz with 160kHz steps when resonated
with a 27nH inductor. Figure 2 shows a Q enhancement
circuit.
Startup Sequence

The MAX1474 must be programmed before use. When
powered up, the following sequence must occur:Deassert both EN and DAT.Assert EN.Send pulses on DAT. The total number of pulses
determines the capacitance value (Table 1).Deassert EN.
Applications Information

The MAX1474 offers users a wide range of applica-
tions, including trimming of regenerative receivers,
oscillators, RFID tags, and capacitive sensors. A
capacitive sensor is usually made of two capacitors.
One capacitor (CM) changes with the sensed function,
such as pressure, acceleration, or humidity. The sec-
ond capacitor (CR) is used as a reference capacitance
that does not vary with the sensed function. In most
applications, it is needed to detect the difference
between these capacitance values. Due to manufactur-
ing tolerances, there are normally offsets between CM
and CR, which can easily be nulled out by the FLECAP
as shown in Figure 4.
To increase the adjustment capacitance range, several
FLECAPs can be placed in parallel. Several capacitors
can be tied together to increase the number of steps or
the resolution, as shown in Figures 5a and 5b.
The FLECAP zero step differential capacitance is low,
typically 0.42pF. The parasitic capacitances are the
reason for the 6pF of input capacitance and the
decrease in range when configured as a single-ended
capacitor. The MAX1474 is an excellent choice in appli-
cations where only differential capacitance matters.
