MAX4560EPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4560EPE is a triple single-pole/double-throw (SPDT) analog switch housed in a 16-pin Plastic DIP package. It operates on dual supplies of ±2V to ±6V or a single supply from +2V to +12V, covering an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device features ±15kV ESD protection and TTL/CMOS-compatible logic inputs. Electrical characteristics include a maximum on-resistance of 160Ω at ±5V and 220Ω at +5V, with a typical channel-to-channel match of 2Ω. Off-leakage current is specified at 1nA at +25°C and 10nA at +85°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Feature Summary

• Integrated ±15kV electrostatic discharge protection on all analog signal pins without latchup risk
• Rail-to-Rail analog signal handling capability across the full supply voltage range
• TTL and CMOS logic compatibility for direct interfacing with standard digital controllers
• Pin-compatible design allowing drop-in replacement for industry-standard 74HC multiplexers

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Applications

• Battery-operated equipment requiring low power consumption
• Audio and video signal routing systems
• Low-voltage data-acquisition systems
• Communications circuits operating in high-ESD environments

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EPE' confirms the extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and the 16-pin Plastic DIP package format. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the manufacturer's ordering information table, as packaging variations may exist. Ensure the source documentation matches the exact part number to avoid confusion with commercial grade variants.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require robust ESD protection directly at the signal interface points. It is suitable for applications needing precise channel matching and low distortion. Verify that the system's logic levels align with the specified input thresholds for the chosen supply voltage configuration.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX4558/MAX4559/MAX4560 family of low-voltage CMOS analog switches. While the MAX4558 provides eight channels and the MAX4559 offers four, the MAX4560 specifically integrates three independent SPDT switches. All members share identical pinouts and core electrical specifications, differing only in channel count.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MAX4560 variants such as MAX4560EEE+ and MAX4560ESE+. These alternatives offer the same functionality but utilize different packages like QSOP or Narrow SOIC.
