MAX361CPE+

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX361CPE+ is a precision, quad, single-pole single-throw (SPST) analog switch featuring four normally closed channels. It operates with a single positive supply from +10V to +30V or split supplies ranging from ±4.5V to ±20V. The device provides low channel on-resistance of less than 85Ω at +25°C and guarantees matching within 3Ω between channels. It exhibits low leakage current of less than 500pA at +25°C and fast switching times with turn-on under 250ns and turn-off under 170ns. Fabricated using a 44V silicon-gate process, it supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling and offers electrostatic discharge protection exceeding 2000V.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the component against official Maxim Integrated datasheets to confirm pinout alignment and electrical specifications before integration. Ensure that the operating voltage range remains within the specified limits to maintain performance integrity. Cross-reference the package dimensions with PCB layout requirements to ensure proper fitment and thermal management during assembly processes.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring normally closed analog switching paths with high precision. The low charge injection and flat on-resistance characteristics make it suitable for applications demanding minimal signal distortion. Verify that the bipolar or unipolar supply configuration aligns with the system's power architecture and signal swing requirements.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX361CPE+ belongs to the MAX361/MAX362 family of precision analog switches manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. This series utilizes an improved 44V silicon-gate process to achieve low power consumption and robust ESD protection. The C suffix indicates a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C, while the P denotes a 16-pin Plastic DIP package.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The MAX362CPE+ serves as a functional substitute if normally open switches are required instead of normally closed ones. Both devices share identical pinouts and electrical characteristics except for the switch state logic.
