MAX4508EPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4508EPE is a CMOS analog switch IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features a single channel configured as an 8-to-1 multiplexer or dual 4-to-1 configuration. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 9 V to 36 V, with support for dual supplies between 4.5 V and 20 V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum on-resistance of 950 Ohms, a maximum turn-on time of 500 ns, and a maximum turn-off time of 250 ns. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a PDIP-16 package.
