MAX4526CPA

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4526CPA is a phase-reversal analog switch in an 8-pin Plastic DIP package, operating from +4.5V to +36V single or ±4.5V to ±18V dual supplies. It features two normally open and two normally closed switches with a maximum on-resistance of 175Ω and a match of 8Ω. The device handles rail-to-rail analog signals with leakage currents of 0.5nA at +25°C and 10nA at +85°C. Transition time is 125ns, with a break-before-make delay of 65ns. Charge injection is 11pC with a matching of 2pC. Operating temperature range is 0°C to +70°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as discontinued through official Analog Devices channels before procurement planning. Confirm that the 8-pin Plastic DIP package meets current manufacturing requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts designed for this specific form factor. Review datasheet specifications against application needs to validate performance suitability.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select the MAX4526CPA for high-speed phase-reversal applications requiring fast transition times compared to the MAX4527 variant. Ensure supply voltages remain within the specified single or bipolar ranges. Verify that the 175Ω on-resistance and 11pC charge injection meet system accuracy requirements. Consider thermal derating if operating near the upper temperature limit.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4526CPA belongs to the MAX4526/MAX4527 family of phase-reversal analog switches. It is distinguished by its optimization for high-frequency operation and faster logic-level translation compared to the low-power MAX4527. Both variants share identical analog switch characteristics but differ in internal driver speed and current consumption profiles.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The MAX4526EPA serves as a direct replacement offering an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C while maintaining the same 8-pin DIP package and electrical characteristics.
