MAX4360EAX+T

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Overview

The MAX4360EAX+T is a low-cost video crosspoint switch featuring an 8x4 matrix of T-switches. It connects any of eight video inputs to four buffered outputs with a 65MHz -3dB bandwidth and 250V/µs slew rate. The device operates on dual supplies ranging from ±4.5V to ±5.5V, supporting an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. It provides three-state output capability, power-saving disable features, and supports both serial and parallel digital interfaces for flexible system integration.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure supply voltage requirements match the design specifications before procurement. Confirm interface mode compatibility with existing control logic. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by regulatory standards. Validate component authenticity through authorized distribution channels.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8-input to 4-output video switching configuration is required. Consider the 65MHz bandwidth for signal integrity in video applications. Evaluate the need for serial versus parallel interface based on available microcontroller pins. Assess thermal management requirements for the SSOP-36 package within the target enclosure.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4359/MAX4360/MAX4456 family of low-cost video crosspoint switches. The MAX4360 specifically provides an 8x4 matrix, distinguishing it from the 4x4 MAX4359 and the 8x8 MAX4456. All variants share similar buffer characteristics and interface protocols, allowing for scalable system designs.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Replacement Considerations

The MAX4359EAX+ serves as a direct substitute for systems requiring a 4x4 matrix instead of 8x4. The MAX4456 offers an expanded 8x8 matrix but requires a different package or pinout adaptation. Verify pin compatibility and software command codes when substituting within the family.
