MAX4618EPE

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4618EPE+ is a high-speed, low-voltage CMOS analog multiplexer IC configured as two independent 4-channel (SP4T) switches. It operates on a single +2V to +5.5V supply and supports 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 max (+5V supply) and 20Ω max (+3V supply), with channel matching within 1Ω. Off-leakage current is typically 1nA at +25°C. Digital inputs are TTL/CMOS compatible, and the package is a 16-pin Plastic DIP.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Feature Summary

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EPE+' indicates the extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and lead-free/RoHS-compliant plastic DIP packaging. Confirm the manufacturer designation matches Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. Ensure the ordering code aligns with the official datasheet for accurate component sourcing.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this part when dual 4:1 multiplexing is required in a single 16-pin package. Verify that the single-supply voltage range (+2V to +5.5V) meets system requirements. Consider the 10Ω on-resistance at +5V and ensure the load current does not exceed the continuous current rating of ±75mA per terminal.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The MAX4618EPE+ belongs to the MAX4617/MAX4618/MAX4619 family of high-speed, low-voltage CMOS analog switches. While the MAX4617 provides an 8-channel mux and the MAX4619 offers three SPDT switches, the MAX4618 specifically integrates two 4-channel multiplexers. All variants share identical pinouts and logic diagrams for interchangeability.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include the MAX4617 and MAX4619 from the same series. Industry-standard equivalents such as the 74HC4051, 74HC4052, and 74HC4053 are also pin-compatible, though electrical characteristics may differ.
