MAX4515CPA

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4515CPA is a single-pole/single-throw (SPST), CMOS, low-voltage analog switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features a normally closed (NC) configuration and operates on a single supply between +2V and +12V. The device handles rail-to-rail analog signals with an on-resistance of 20Ω at +5V and 10Ω at +12V. Off-leakage current is guaranteed at 1nA at +25°C and 20nA at +85°C. It supports TTL/CMOS logic compatibility at +5V, has a turn-on time of 150ns maximum, and a turn-off time of 100ns maximum. The component is housed in an 8-pin Plastic DIP package and functions within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the exact package type and temperature rating. Ensure that the procurement channel provides valid traceability for the Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated brand. Cross-reference the part number with the latest datasheet revision to confirm pinout and electrical specifications match the intended design requirements before finalizing orders.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select the MAX4515CPA when a normally closed state is required for the analog switch application. Consider the +2V to +12V single-supply range and the 8-pin Plastic DIP package constraints. Evaluate the 20Ω on-resistance at +5V and the 150ns turn-on time against system speed requirements. Verify that the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range meets the environmental operating conditions of the target deployment.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4515CPA belongs to the MAX4514/MAX4515 family of low-voltage, low-on-resistance, SPST CMOS analog switches. This series is designed for applications requiring efficient signal routing in battery-powered or low-voltage environments. The MAX4515 variant specifically provides a normally closed path, contrasting with the MAX4514's normally open configuration, while sharing identical electrical characteristics and packaging options.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The MAX4514CPA serves as a functional substitute if a normally open (NO) configuration is acceptable instead of the standard NC setup. Both components share identical pinouts, electrical parameters, and package types. Designers must verify that the change in default switch state does not disrupt existing circuit logic or signal paths.
