MAX395EAG.TG071

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX395EAG+ is a serially controlled, low-voltage analog switch IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. (Maxim Integrated). It features eight independent SPST switches in an SSOP-24 package. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7 V to 16 V or dual supplies of ±2.7 V to ±8 V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum on-resistance of 100 Ohms and a maximum power supply current of 20 uA. Switching times are limited to 400 ns for both turn-on and turn-off. It supports a DC switch current of 30 mA and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure the component meets RoHS requirements if mandated by the design. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor listings to confirm availability status and authenticity before procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-pin-count solution for multiple signal paths is required. The serial interface minimizes microcontroller GPIO usage. Verify that the 100 Ohm on-resistance and 30 mA current handling meet the load requirements. Confirm compatibility with the system's logic voltage levels for the serial control inputs.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX395 series of low-voltage analog switches. It is distinct from parallel-controlled variants which require more I/O pins. The SSOP-24 package offers a balance between channel density and board space efficiency compared to larger packages.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the Maxim Integrated portfolio that offer similar serial control interfaces. Verify that any substitute maintains the same voltage range and on-resistance characteristics.
