MAX4360EAX

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Overview

The MAX4360EAX+ is a low-cost video crosspoint switch featuring an 8x4 T-switch matrix housed in a 36-pin SSOP package. It operates on dual supplies ranging from ±4.5V to ±5.5V and supports temperatures from -40°C to +85°C. The device provides a small-signal bandwidth of 65MHz, a slew rate of 250V/µs, and single-channel crosstalk of 70dB at 5MHz. It includes internal programmable active loads and three-state outputs for parallel expansion.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Feature Summary

• Supports serial or parallel digital interfaces for flexible control
• Features straight-through pinouts to simplify circuit layout
• Includes power-saving disable feature to reduce consumption

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Applications

• Video-On-Demand Systems
• Video Test Equipment
• Security Systems

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EAX+' against official documentation to confirm the operating temperature range and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the required dual supply voltage matches the ±4.5V to ±5.5V specification before ordering. Confirm that the 36-lead SSOP package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8-input by 4-output configuration is required. It serves as a direct alternative to the MAX4456 if fewer output channels are sufficient. Verify that the system requires buffered outputs and can accommodate the necessary dual power supply rails for optimal performance.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4359/MAX4360/MAX4456 family of low-cost video crosspoint switches. While the MAX4359 offers a 4x4 matrix and the MAX4456 provides an 8x8 matrix, the MAX4360 specifically bridges these options with its 8x4 configuration. All members share similar interface protocols and buffer architectures.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Replacement Considerations

The MAX4359EAX+ is a compatible alternative within the same series, offering a 4x4 matrix instead of 8x4. Both devices utilize the same 36-pin SSOP package and operate under identical electrical conditions.
