MAX4541ESA+

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4541ESA+ is a precision, dual analog switch designed for single-supply operation from +2.7V to +12V. It features two normally open (NO) switches with a maximum on-resistance of 60Ω and a typical value of 33Ω at +5V. The device offers low power consumption of 5µW, fast switching speeds with turn-on time up to 100ns and turn-off time up to 75ns, and low leakage currents of 100pA maximum. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in an 8-pin SO package.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Feature Summary

• Dual SPST configuration with two independent normally open channels

• TTL/CMOS logic compatible inputs for direct interfacing
• High ESD protection exceeding 2000V per Method 3015.7

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Applications

• Battery-operated systems requiring low power consumption
• Sample-and-hold circuits
• Audio and video signal switching
• Heads-up displays and guidance systems

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ESA+' against the manufacturer's current ordering guide to confirm the package type, temperature range, and lead-free status. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-pin SO package before procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when dual single-pole/single-throw switching is required with low on-resistance and fast switching speeds. Consider the MAX4542 or MAX4543 if normally closed contacts or mixed configurations are needed instead of the dual NO setup provided by the MAX4541.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4541ESA+ belongs to the MAX4541–MAX4544 family of low-voltage, single-supply analog switches. This series includes variants with different contact configurations, such as normally closed or SPDT options, all sharing similar electrical characteristics and pinouts for design flexibility.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other members of the MAX454x family like the MAX4542ESA+ or MAX4543ESA+, provided the specific switch configuration matches the circuit requirements. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
