MAX4051EPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4051EPE is a low-voltage CMOS analog multiplexer featuring eight independent channels. It operates on dual supplies from ±2.7V to ±8V or a single supply between +2.7V and +16V. The device provides rail-to-rail signal handling with guaranteed on-resistance of 100Ω at ±5V supplies. Digital inputs are TTL/CMOS compatible, supporting logic thresholds from 0.8V to 2.4V. The component utilizes a 16-pin Plastic DIP package and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

• Low distortion and high off-isolation performance

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Applications

• Battery-operated equipment
• Audio and video signal routing
• Low-voltage data-acquisition systems
• Communications circuits

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EPE indicates the extended industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and plastic DIP packaging. Confirm that the non-A suffix version meets the required leakage specifications, as A-suffix parts offer tighter guarantees. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints designed for standard 16-pin DIP packages.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this part when pin compatibility with legacy 74HC4051 designs is required alongside improved leakage characteristics. Verify that the 100Ω on-resistance at ±5V supplies aligns with system impedance requirements. Consider the A-suffix variant if stricter channel matching (6Ω) and lower leakage (0.1nA) are necessary for precision applications.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX4051/A, MAX4052/A, and MAX4053/A family of low-voltage CMOS analog switches manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated.
