MAX4617ESE+T

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4617ESE+T is a high-speed, low-voltage CMOS analog multiplexer configured as an 8-channel single-ended switch. It operates on a single +2V to +5.5V supply and handles rail-to-rail analog signals. The device features fast switching times with a maximum turn-on time of 15ns and turn-off time of 10ns at +25°C. On-resistance is guaranteed at 10Ω maximum for a +5V supply and 20Ω maximum for a +3V supply. Off-leakage current is typically 1nA at +25°C. Digital inputs are TTL/CMOS compatible, and the component is housed in a 16-pin Narrow SOIC package.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix '+T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing this specific variant. Confirm the 'E' suffix corresponds to the extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Ensure the narrow SOIC footprint matches the design layout. Check RoHS compliance status if required by local regulations.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this part for applications requiring pin compatibility with standard 74HC series multiplexers while offering superior leakage and speed characteristics. Consider the 10Ω on-resistance at +5V for low-signal attenuation requirements. Verify that the 16-pin Narrow SOIC package dimensions fit the available PCB space constraints.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX4617/MAX4618/MAX4619 family of high-speed, low-voltage CMOS analog switches. While the MAX4618 provides two 4-channel multiplexers and the MAX4619 offers three SPDT switches, the MAX4617 specifically implements a single 8-channel multiplexer configuration within the same 16-pin form factor.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitutes include MAX4617CSE+T (commercial temperature range) and MAX4617EUE+T (TSSOP package). Direct replacements from other manufacturers require verification of electrical parameters against the official datasheet specifications.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers FAQ

How does the MAX4617 handle overvoltage conditions?

Reverse ESD-protection diodes are internally connected between each analog-signal pin and both VCC and GND. If any analog signal exceeds VCC or GND, one of these diodes conducts.

What is the logic voltage threshold behavior?

Digital inputs have 0.8V to 2.4V logic thresholds ensuring TTL/CMOS-logic compatibility when using a single +5V supply. As VCC falls, the threshold decreases; for example, at +3V the minimum logic-high threshold is 2.0V.

Can input and output pins be interchanged?

Yes, input and output pins are identical and interchangeable. Signals pass equally well in both directions through the switch channels.
