Manual

General Description
The MAX11041/MAX11042 wired remote controllers
convert up to six or 30 different pushbuttons into an
I
2
C* register. Together with low-cost pushbutton switch-
es and 1% resistors, the MAX11041/MAX11042 are
total solutions over a single-wire interface. A wired
remote controller easily piggybacks to a standard
3.5mm headphone jack using a fourth contact or one of
the audio signals.
To conserve battery life, the MAX11041/MAX11042
consume only 5µA (typ) while reading keypresses in
real time without microprocessor (µP) polling. The
devices send the debounced keypress along with key
duration to the application processor over the I
2
C inter-
face. An 8-word FIFO buffer records up to four key-
press events to allow plenty of time for the application
processor to respond to the MAX11041/MAX11042.
The MAX11041/MAX11042 include ±15kV ESD protec-
tion devices on the FORCE and SENSE inputs to ensure
IEC 61000-4-2 compliance without any external
ESD devices.
The MAX11041/MAX11042 are available in 12-bump
UCSP™ and 12-pin TQFN packages. The devices are
specified over the extended temperature range
(-40°C to +85°C).
