MAX4517EUK-T

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4517EUK-T is a single-pole/single-throw (SPST), CMOS, low-voltage, dual-supply analog switch housed in a SOT23-5 package. It features a normally closed (NC) configuration with a guaranteed on-resistance of 20Ω at ±5V supplies. The device operates continuously with dual supplies between ±1V and ±6V, handling rail-to-rail analog signals. Key electrical parameters include an off-leakage current maximum of 1nA at +25°C and 20nA at +85°C, and an on-leakage current maximum of 2nA at +25°C. Switching speeds are characterized by a turn-on time of 100ns and a turn-off time of 75ns.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing components. Confirm the 'E' designation corresponds to the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range. Ensure compatibility with dual-supply requirements as the device lacks a ground pin for logic referencing. Cross-reference the manufacturer's ordering guide for exact availability status.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a normally closed state in a compact SOT23-5 footprint. It is suitable for dual-supply environments ranging from ±1V to ±6V. For single-supply designs, consider pin-compatible alternatives like the MAX4514 or MAX4515. Verify that the logic level thresholds referenced to V+ align with the system's control voltage levels.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4516/MAX4517 family of dual-supply, low-on-resistance, SPST CMOS analog switches. The MAX4517 variant specifically provides a normally closed contact, whereas the MAX4516 offers a normally open configuration. Both share identical electrical characteristics and pinouts, differing only in their default switch state.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers FAQ

How is the logic-level threshold defined for the MAX4517?

The digital input is referenced to the positive power supply (V+) rather than ground. The thresholds are CMOS compatible with ±5V supplies.

What is the maximum off-leakage current specification?

The off-leakage current is guaranteed to be a maximum of 1nA at +25°C and 20nA at +85°C.

Can the MAX4517 operate with a single supply?

While it can operate with a single supply from +2V to +12V, it is tested and guaranteed only with dual supplies. Logic-level inputs may shift with higher single-supply voltages.
