MAX4617CEE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4617CEE is an 8-channel analog multiplexer IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates on a single +2V to +5.5V supply and supports rail-to-rail analog signals. Key electrical parameters include a maximum switch on-resistance of 10Ω at +5V supply, 1nA off-leakage current at +25°C, and switching times of 15ns turn-on and 10ns turn-off. The device features TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, -96dB channel-to-channel crosstalk, and -93dB off-isolation. It is housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package with an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CEE' against official ordering tables as standard listings typically use 'CUE' or 'ESE'. Confirm RoHS compliance status indicated by the '+' symbol if required. Ensure the 16-TSSOP footprint matches the target PCB layout. Validate that the commercial temperature range meets system requirements.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low voltage operation and rail-to-rail signal handling. Compare on-resistance flatness and leakage specifications against alternative multiplexers if signal integrity is critical. Consider the pinout compatibility with industry-standard 74HC4051 devices for drop-in replacements in existing designs.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4617 is part of a family including the MAX4618 (two 4-channel muxes) and MAX4619 (three SPDT switches). All share similar electrical characteristics and pinouts within their respective configurations. The C-series denotes commercial temperature range availability.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Pin-compatible alternatives include the 74HC4051 series and the MAX4581/MAX4582/MAX4583 series. Verify electrical parameter differences such as on-resistance and leakage currents before substitution.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers FAQ

What is the logic threshold voltage for TTL/CMOS compatibility?

At a +5V supply, the logic thresholds are 0.8V for low and 2.4V for high.

How does the device handle overvoltage conditions?

Internal reverse ESD-protection diodes clamp voltages exceeding VCC or GND. External blocking diodes may be added for protection if power-supply sequencing cannot be guaranteed.

Is the input/output directionality fixed?

No, input and output pins are identical and interchangeable. Signals pass equally well in both directions.
