MAX4616ESD

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4616ESD is a quad, low-voltage, high-speed, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) CMOS analog switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features two normally open and two normally closed switches within a 14-pin Narrow SO package. The device operates from a single +2V to +5.5V supply with a maximum on-resistance of 10Ω at +5V and 20Ω at +3V. Switching times are 12ns for turn-on and 10ns for turn-off. It supports rail-to-rail signal handling, exhibits less than 6nA off-leakage current over temperature, and maintains an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ESD' corresponds to the 14-pin Narrow SOIC package and the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm RoHS compliance status as required by project specifications. Ensure the ordering code matches the exact manufacturer designation to avoid pinout or electrical characteristic mismatches during procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when mixed normally open and normally closed switching functions are required in a single package. It serves as a direct drop-in replacement for legacy 74HC4066 designs requiring lower voltage operation. Consider the 10Ω on-resistance limit and 12ns switching speed against system timing requirements before finalizing the design.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4614/MAX4615/MAX4616 family of quad SPST analog switches. While the MAX4614 offers four normally open switches and the MAX4615 provides four normally closed switches, the MAX4616 uniquely combines two of each type. All variants share identical pinouts and electrical characteristics regarding resistance and leakage.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the MAX4614ESD and MAX4615ESD if the specific NO/NC configuration can be adapted. Legacy replacements such as the 74HC4066 are pin-compatible but may lack the guaranteed on-resistance flatness and low-voltage performance specified for the MAX4616 series.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers FAQ

What is the specific switch configuration of the MAX4616?

The MAX4616 contains four SPST switches: two are normally open (NO) and two are normally closed (NC).

How does the on-resistance vary with supply voltage?

The maximum on-resistance is 10Ω at a +5V supply and increases to 20Ω at a +3V supply.

Is the MAX4616 compatible with standard logic families?

Yes, it features TTL/CMOS-logic compatibility with +0.8V and +2.4V logic thresholds when using a single +5V supply.
