MAX4523CPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4523CPE is a quad, low-voltage, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features two normally closed and two normally open switches within a 16-pin Plastic DIP package. The device operates with dual supplies from ±2V to ±6V or a single supply between +2V and +12V. Key electrical parameters include an on-resistance of up to 100Ω, on-resistance flatness of 12Ω max, and channel-to-channel matching of 6Ω max at +25°C. Off-leakage current is typically 1nA at +25°C. The component supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling and provides TTL/CMOS logic compatibility.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CPE' corresponds to the commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and 16-pin Plastic DIP package format. Confirm that the ordering information matches the exact part number variant required for the design, as other suffixes indicate different packages or extended temperature ranges. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if applicable to the manufacturing batch.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a mix of normally open and normally closed switching paths is required in a single package. It is suitable for designs operating on single or dual low-voltage supplies. Consider the on-resistance characteristics and leakage currents relative to the application's signal integrity requirements. Verify that the 16-pin DIP package fits the intended PCB layout constraints.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523 family of quad, low-voltage SPST analog switches. While the MAX4521 contains four normally closed switches and the MAX4522 contains four normally open switches, the MAX4523 uniquely combines two of each type. All variants share similar electrical characteristics regarding on-resistance, leakage, and supply voltage ranges.
