MAX364EPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX364EPE is a precision, quad, single-pole single-throw (SPST) analog switch featuring four normally closed channels. It operates with a single positive supply (+10V to +30V) or split supplies (±4.5V to ±20V). The device offers low channel on-resistance of less than 85Ω, guaranteed to match within 2Ω between channels and remain flat over the analog signal range with a maximum variation of 9Ω. Leakage current is less than 500pA at +25°C and less than 4nA at +85°C. Switching performance includes turn-on time less than 250ns and turn-off time less than 170ns. Charge injection is extremely low at 10pC, and power consumption is 35µW. The component supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling with a 44V maximum breakdown voltage.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'EPE' corresponds to the -40°C to +85°C temperature range and 16-pin Plastic DIP package configuration. Confirm that the manufacturer designation aligns with Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated as specified in the request. Ensure the component meets the required industrial temperature specifications for the intended deployment environment.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select the MAX364EPE when normally closed SPST switching functionality is required. This part is suitable for applications needing low on-resistance and fast switching speeds under single or dual supply conditions. Consider the 16-pin PDIP package constraints and verify logic level compatibility with the system's control signals before integration into the circuit design.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX364EPE belongs to the MAX364/MAX365 family of precision analog switches manufactured by Maxim Integrated, now part of Analog Devices Inc. These devices are fabricated using an improved silicon-gate process designed to minimize charge injection and maximize reliability. The MAX364 variant specifically provides four normally closed switches, distinguishing it from the MAX365 which offers normally open configurations.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers include MAX364CPE, MAX364ESE, and MAX364ETE. These alternatives share the same functional characteristics but differ in operating temperature ranges and physical package types such as Narrow SOIC or Thin QFN.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers FAQ

What is the difference between the MAX364 and MAX365?

The MAX364 contains four normally closed (NC) switches, whereas the MAX365 contains four normally open (NO) switches.

How does the MAX364EPE handle analog signals?

It offers rail-to-rail analog signal handling capability due to its 44V maximum breakdown voltage, allowing it to operate with both single and split supply voltages.

What is the maximum on-resistance for this component?

The on-resistance is less than 85Ω, guaranteed to match within 2Ω between channels and remain flat over the analog signal range with a maximum variation of 9Ω.
