MAX4996LETG+

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The MAX4996LETG+ is a triple double-pole double-throw (DPDT) analog switch manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates from a single +2.5V to +5.5V supply and features a typical on-resistance of 2.0Ω and low on-capacitance of 6pF. The device includes three logic inputs to control switches in pairs, with an active-low enable input (EN) for the 'L' variant to disable all switches simultaneously. It offers a -3dB bandwidth of 670MHz and operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The component is housed in a space-saving 24-pin TQFN package with an exposed paddle.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Feature Summary

• Triple DPDT configuration with low on-resistance and low capacitance for high-frequency switching
• Active-low enable input minimizes supply current and places outputs in a high-impedance state
• Rail-to-rail signal handling capability within the operating voltage range
• Wide -3dB bandwidth suitable for portable electronics applications

• Portable Media Players

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and enable logic polarity. The 'L' designation indicates an active-low enable input, which differs electrically from the standard MAX4996 variant. Ensure that the procurement source provides valid traceability for the lead-free packaging status as indicated by the '+' suffix.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a triple DPDT switch with low insertion loss and high bandwidth is required for portable devices. The MAX4996LETG+ is specifically suited for applications requiring an active-low enable control signal. Compare the 2.0Ω typical on-resistance and 670MHz bandwidth against system requirements to ensure signal integrity is maintained across the intended frequency spectrum.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4996 family of triple DPDT analog switches. The MAX4996LETG+ variant specifically utilizes an active-low enable input, distinguishing it from the MAX4996ETG+ which uses an active-high enable. Both variants share identical electrical characteristics regarding on-resistance, capacitance, and bandwidth, but differ in control logic polarity.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The MAX4996ETG+ serves as a functional substitute with identical electrical parameters, differing only in the enable input logic polarity (active-high vs. active-low). Verify that the circuit design accommodates the inverted enable signal if substituting between these two variants.
