MAX4601CAE+T

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4601CAE+T is a quad single-pole single-throw (SPST) CMOS analog switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features a maximum on-resistance of 2.5Ω with guaranteed matching and flatness of 0.5Ω across the signal range. The device supports single supplies from +4.5V to +36V or dual supplies from ±4.5V to ±20V, ensuring TTL/CMOS logic compatibility. Operating within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C, it utilizes a 16-pin SSOP package.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the component authenticity through official manufacturer channels or authorized distributors. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required specifications, as variations may affect performance parameters. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if applicable to the specific procurement batch.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low on-resistance and high off-isolation. Verify that the supply voltage range aligns with the system design, noting the difference between single and dual supply configurations. Consider the thermal dissipation limits when designing for the upper end of the operating temperature range.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4601/MAX4602/MAX4603 family of quad analog switches. While the MAX4601 offers four normally closed switches, the MAX4602 provides four normally open switches, and the MAX4603 combines two of each. All variants share similar electrical characteristics and packaging options.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other parts from the MAX4601 series such as the MAX4601EAE+T for extended temperature ranges. Cross-referencing pinouts and electrical specifications is essential when considering alternative manufacturers' components.
