MAX4516CUK-T

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4516CUK-T is a single-pole/single-throw (SPST) CMOS analog switch housed in a 5-pin SOT23-5 package. It operates with dual supplies ranging from ±1V to ±6V or a single supply of +2V to +12V. The device features a guaranteed on-resistance of 20Ω at ±5V supplies, with an on-resistance flatness of 6Ω. Electrical characteristics include a maximum off-leakage current of 1nA at +25°C and 20nA at +85°C, alongside low charge injection of 20pC max. Switching speeds are defined by a turn-on time of 100ns and a turn-off time of 75ns. The component supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling and functions within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CUK-T' against official documentation to confirm the commercial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C), SOT23-5 surface-mount package, and tape-and-reel packaging format. Ensure compatibility with design requirements regarding logic level thresholds referenced to V+. Cross-reference ordering information to validate availability status and lead times through authorized distribution channels prior to procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring SPST switching with dual-supply flexibility. The MAX4516 is normally open, whereas the pin-compatible MAX4517 is normally closed; choose based on default state requirements. For single-supply designs, consider the MAX4514/MAX4515 series instead. Verify that the logic interface remains compatible with the positive supply rail, as TTL levels may violate absolute maximum ratings if V+ is set to +3V.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4516 belongs to the Maxim Integrated MAX4516/MAX4517 family of low-voltage, dual-supply analog switches. This series is characterized by very low on-resistance and fast switching speeds. The MAX4516 variant specifically provides a normally open configuration, distinguishing it from the MAX4517 which offers a normally closed function within the same footprint and electrical specifications.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The MAX4517EUK-T serves as a functional substitute offering identical electrical parameters but with a normally closed (NC) configuration instead of normally open (NO). For single-supply applications, the MAX4514 or MAX4515 series provides pin-compatible alternatives optimized for unipolar operation.
