MAX4537EPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4537EPE is a quad, low-voltage, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch featuring four normally closed (NC) switches with a common enable pin. It operates from +2V to +12V single supplies or ±2V to ±6V dual supplies. The device offers an on-resistance of 200Ω maximum, matched between channels to 4Ω maximum and flat to 10Ω maximum over the signal range. It 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 component is housed in a 16-pin Plastic DIP package.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'EPE' corresponds to the -40°C to +85°C temperature range and 16-pin Plastic DIP package configuration as defined in the official Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated datasheet. Ensure that the component meets RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to the project specifications. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to confirm current availability status and authenticity before procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a normally closed analog switching configuration is required within a low-voltage system. The MAX4537EPE is suitable for designs needing pin compatibility with standard CMOS logic switches while offering superior leakage performance. Consider the 200Ω on-resistance limit and the requirement for a common enable pin when designing the control logic interface for the application circuit.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX4536/MAX4537/MAX4538 family of quad, low-voltage SPST analog switches. While the MAX4536 provides normally open switches and the MAX4538 combines both types, the MAX4537 specifically provides four normally closed switches. All variants share identical pinouts and electrical characteristics regarding supply voltage ranges and logic thresholds.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other members of the MAX453x family such as the MAX4536CPE or MAX4538CPE, provided the switch polarity matches the design requirements. For normally open configurations, the MAX4536 series serves as a functional equivalent. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 16-pin DIP package and operating temperature range.
