MAX336CPI

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX336CPI+ is a monolithic CMOS analog multiplexer featuring 16 channels. It connects one of 16 inputs to a common output via a 4-bit binary address. The device operates from single +4.5V to +30V or dual ±4.5V to ±20V supplies. Key electrical parameters include a maximum on-resistance of 700Ω at +25°C and 500Ω across the full temperature range. Leakage currents are less than 20pA off-state and 50pA on-state at +25°C. Transition time is typically 600ns, with enable turn-on/off times up to 750ns. It provides over 2000V ESD protection and features TTL-compatible control inputs.
