MAX4536CPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4536CPE is a quad, low-voltage, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch with a common enable pin. It operates from +2V to +12V single supplies or ±2V to ±6V dual supplies. The device features four separately controlled switches with an on-resistance of 200Ω maximum and flatness of 10Ω maximum over the signal range. On-resistance matches between channels to 4Ω maximum. Each switch handles rail-to-rail analog signals with off-leakage current of 1nA at +25°C and 10nA at +85°C. Digital inputs have 0.8V to 2.4V logic thresholds for TTL/CMOS compatibility. The package is a 16-pin Plastic DIP.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix 'C' corresponds to the commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Confirm the package designation 'PE' indicates a 16-lead Plastic DIP configuration. Ensure the component meets RoHS requirements if applicable to the specific manufacturing batch. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet revision to confirm pinout consistency with legacy designs.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a direct replacement for the 74HC4316 is required in low-voltage environments. Consider the 200Ω maximum on-resistance for signal integrity requirements. Verify that the supply voltage range aligns with the system's power architecture. Evaluate the 1nA leakage current specification against high-impedance signal path needs.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4536 is part of the MAX4536/MAX4537/MAX4538 family of quad SPST analog switches. The MAX4536 specifically contains four normally open switches, whereas the MAX4537 contains four normally closed switches, and the MAX4538 combines two normally open and two normally closed switches. All variants share identical pinouts and electrical characteristics except for the switch state logic.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The MAX4536CSE is a surface-mount alternative using a 16-Narrow SOIC package. The MAX4536CEE offers the same functionality in a 16-QSOP package. These parts are pin-compatible but require different footprint layouts.
