Product details
Overview
The MAX14803AEWZ+T from Maxim Integrated is a 16-channel, high-voltage analog SPST switch IC designed for ultrasound imaging probe and medical mainframe systems. It delivers low-charge-injection (350 pC typ at +160V/–40V), 16-channel independent control, ±100V analog signal range, integrated 35kΩ bleed resistors per terminal, and operates across –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the MAX14803AEWZ+T datasheet, MAX14803AEWZ+T pinout, MAX14803AEWZ+T application, or MAX14803AEWZ+T equivalent, key selection criteria include high-voltage supply flexibility (VPP/VNN up to +160V/–40V), daisy-chainable 20MHz serial interface, on-resistance matching (±5%), off-isolation (–77dB at 5MHz), and WLP package thermal performance (θJA = 27°C/W).
Technical Context
The MAX14803AEWZ+T implements a 16-bit serial shift register with transparent latch, enabling precise per-channel switching via DIN/CLK/LE/CLR digital control. Its HVCMOS process supports high-voltage operation while maintaining low quiescent current (5µA typ on VDD) and fast switching (tON/tOFF = 2–3.5µs).
Each channel integrates clamping diodes at COM_ for positive overvoltage protection and 35kΩ bleed resistors on both COM_ and NO_ terminals-exclusive to MAX14803/MAX14803A variants-to safely discharge piezoelectric transducer capacitance without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VPP/VNN Supply Range | +160V/–40V max; enables flexible high-voltage biasing for ultrasonic transmit stages |
| On-Resistance (RONS) | 16–27Ω typ at 200mA; ensures minimal signal loss in high-current pulse applications |
| Off-Isolation | –77dB at 5MHz (RL = 50Ω); critical for crosstalk suppression in dense multi-channel arrays |
| Charge Injection | 350pC typ at +160V/–40V; reduces image artifacts in time-gain-compensated ultrasound receivers |
| Serial Interface Speed | 20MHz max (VDD = 5V); supports rapid reconfiguration of 16 switches in <1µs |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade medical equipment deployment |
| Package Thermal Resistance | θJA = 27°C/W (four-layer board); enables high-density PCB layout without forced cooling |
Pinout & Package
The MAX14803AEWZ+T is housed in an 110-bump wafer-level package (WLP), measuring 5.81mm × 5.43mm, with bottom-side bumps for compact system integration in space-constrained ultrasound probes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| COM0–COM15 | Analog common terminal (16 channels) | Connects to transducer array ground reference or HV return path; each tied to internal clamp diode anode |
| NO0–NO15 | Analog normally-open terminal (16 channels) | Routes HV pulses to individual transducer elements; includes integrated 35kΩ bleed resistor to GND |
| VPP / VNN | High-voltage positive/negative supplies | Support asymmetric configurations (e.g., +160V/–40V); bypass required with ≥0.1µF ceramic capacitor |
| VDD / GND | Digital logic supply and ground | 2.7V–5.5V tolerant; powers 16-bit shift register, latch, and level shifters independently of HV rails |
| DIN / CLK / LE / CLR / DOUT | Serial control interface | Daisy-chainable 20MHz interface; LE latches data to update all 16 switches simultaneously; CLR forces all OFF |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 35kΩ bleed resistors | Discharges piezoelectric transducer capacitance automatically-eliminates need for external bleeder networks |
| Clamping diodes at COM_ | Protects against +VPP overshoot during fast switching; prevents latch-up in high-dV/dt ultrasound transmit bursts |
| Low-charge-injection architecture | 350pC typical at +160V/–40V enables sub-micron timing accuracy in echo-time measurement circuits |
| Daisy-chainable serial interface | Single CLK/LE/CLR bus controls multiple MAX14803AEWZ+T devices-reduces MCU GPIO count in 64+ channel systems |
| Power-on reset | Guarantees all 16 switches start OPEN at power-up-prevents unintended HV discharge during boot |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage analog switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX14803CCM+ | Same electrical specs but in 48-pin LQFP; no WLP thermal advantage; commercial temp only (0°C to +70°C) | Suitable for non-portable, lab-based ultrasound systems where board space and extended temperature are not constraints | Select when footprint compatibility with legacy LQFP layouts is required and extended temperature range is unnecessary |
| MAX14802ECM+ | Lacks integrated bleed resistors; same 48-pin LQFP; extended temp (–40°C to +85°C); no WLP option | Better for cost-sensitive, lower-complexity printer or industrial actuator systems where external bleed networks are acceptable | Choose when lowest BOM cost is prioritized and external 35kΩ resistors can be added per channel |
Compared with MAX14803CCM+ and MAX14802ECM+, the MAX14803AEWZ+T uniquely combines extended temperature operation, WLP thermal efficiency (θJA = 27°C/W), and monolithic bleed resistors-making it optimal for portable, high-channel-count ultrasound probes demanding miniaturization and reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable VPP–VNN voltage difference for the MAX14803AEWZ+T?
The MAX14803AEWZ+T supports a maximum VPP–VNN differential of 250V. Per the datasheet, absolute maximum ratings specify VPP–VNN ≤ 250V, with validated operation at +160V/–40V (200V diff), +100V/–100V (200V diff), and +40V/–160V (200V diff). Exceeding 250V risks permanent damage to the MAX14803AEWZ+T.
Does the MAX14803AEWZ+T require external bleed resistors for piezoelectric transducer discharge?
No. The MAX14803AEWZ+T integrates 35kΩ bleed resistors on both COM_ and NO_ terminals of all 16 channels-this is a defining feature distinguishing it from MAX14802 and enabling simplified, reliable transducer discharge without external components.
Can the MAX14803AEWZ+T operate with asymmetric high-voltage supplies like +200V/0V?
Yes. The MAX14803AEWZ+T supports asymmetric configurations including +200V/0V, +100V/–100V, and +40V/–160V. Its analog signal range is defined as VNN to min(VNN + 200V, VPP – 10V), allowing full utilization of the +200V/0V rail pair in single-supply ultrasound transmit stages.
What is the purpose of the CLR input on the MAX14803AEWZ+T?
The CLR (clear) input on the MAX14803AEWZ+T is an active-high signal that resets the internal latch to zero, forcing all 16 switches to the OFF (open) state regardless of shift register contents. It overrides LE and CLK, providing fail-safe shutdown capability critical for medical safety compliance in ultrasound systems using the MAX14803AEWZ+T.
How does the MAX14803AEWZ+T handle power-up sequencing of VDD, VPP, and VNN supplies?
The MAX14803AEWZ+T does not require strict supply sequencing. Its internal power-on-reset circuit ensures all switches start OPEN regardless of ramp order. However, analog inputs (COM_/NO_) must remain unconnected or satisfy VNN ≤ Vsignal ≤ VPP during power-up/down to prevent latch-up-verified by characterization, not production tested.
