MAX4657EUA

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4657EUA is a high-current, low-voltage analog switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features a single SPST configuration housed in an 8-pin uMAX surface-mount package. The device supports a supply voltage range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V and delivers a maximum on-resistance of 4 Ohms. It operates with a typical turn-on time of 15 ns and turn-off time of 8 ns. The component handles a DC switch current of 50 mA while consuming a maximum supply current of 1 uA. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
