MAX4600EAE+T

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4600EAE+T is a dual SPST CMOS analog switch in a 16-lead SSOP package. It features one normally open and one normally closed channel with a maximum on-resistance of 1.25Ω, matched to 0.25Ω. The device operates from +4.5V to +36V single supply or ±4.5V to ±20V dual supplies. Key electrical parameters include a maximum turn-on time of 160ns, turn-off time of 210ns, off-leakage current of 2.5nA at +85°C, and charge injection of -60pC. It supports rail-to-rail signal handling and TTL/CMOS-compatible logic inputs.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing components. Confirm the 'E' suffix corresponds to the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Ensure the '+' suffix denotes compliance with RoHS standards. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with official distributor catalogs to validate authenticity and availability status before procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low distortion and high reliability over mechanical relays. The MAX4600 configuration provides mixed normally open and normally closed switching within a single package. Consider the 1.25Ω maximum on-resistance and 200mA continuous current rating for load requirements. Verify that the operating voltage range aligns with the system's single or dual supply architecture.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX4580/MAX4590/MAX4600 family of dual analog switches. While electrically similar, the MAX4580 offers two normally closed switches, and the MAX4590 offers two normally open switches. The MAX4600 specifically combines one NO and one NC switch, providing flexible signal routing options without requiring multiple packages.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

MAX4580EAE+T: Dual SPST, both switches normally closed. MAX4590EAE+T: Dual SPST, both switches normally open. These variants share identical electrical specifications and pinouts but differ in internal switch configuration.
