Product details
Overview
MAX322EUA from Maxim Integrated is a precision dual-supply SPST analog switch with one normally open (NO) and one normally closed (NC) channel, designed for ±3V to ±8V bipolar operation. It delivers 35Ω max on-resistance, <5pC charge injection, guaranteed break-before-make switching (2ns min delay), and 100pA max off-leakage - enabling high-fidelity signal routing in ±5V DAC/ADC interfaces and battery-powered test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX322EUA datasheet, MAX322EUA pinout, MAX322EUA application, or MAX322EUA equivalent, this page provides verified pin assignments, real-world timing behavior (tON <150ns, tOFF <100ns), leakage performance over temperature (≤2.5nA at +85°C), and validated alternatives for dual-channel analog switching in military radios, guidance systems, and audio/video routing.
Technical Context
The MAX322EUA implements complementary MOSFET pairs per switch with matched threshold voltages to achieve ≤2Ω RON matching and ≤4Ω RON flatness across ±3V to ±8V supplies. Its logic interface accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs referenced to V+, with VIH = V+ − 1.5V and VIL = V+ − 2.5V.
Break-before-make timing is internally guaranteed for the MAX322 variant only, preventing momentary shorting during channel transitions. All analog pins (COM, NO, NC) support bidirectional signal flow over the full supply range (V− to V+), with ESD protection exceeding 2000V per Method 3015.7.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | ±3V to ±8V dual supply - supports rail-to-rail analog signal switching without level-shifting. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 35Ω max at ±5V - ensures minimal gain error and THD degradation in precision signal paths. |
| RON Matching | <2Ω between channels - critical for differential signal integrity and matched filter responses. |
| Charge Injection | <5pC - limits voltage glitch on sample-and-hold capacitors and preserves ADC accuracy. |
| Switching Speed | tON <150ns, tOFF <100ns - enables multiplexing of fast analog waveforms up to ~3MHz bandwidth. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 100pA max at +25°C, ≤2.5nA at +85°C - maintains low drift in high-impedance sensor front-ends. |
| Break-Before-Make Delay | 2ns min (guaranteed) - prevents signal shorting during channel switching in safety-critical control paths. |
Pinout & Package
MAX322EUA is housed in an 8-pin µMAX package (2.1mm × 2.1mm, 0.5mm pitch), rated for 0°C to +70°C operation. The package features exposed pad for thermal enhancement and is RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts +3V to +8V; substrate tied internally to V+ for latch-up immunity. |
| IN1 | Logic Input for Switch 1 | Controls NO1/NC1 state; VIH = V+ − 1.5V, compatible with TTL/CMOS drivers. |
| COM2 | Analog Common Terminal (Channel 2) | Bidirectional node - connects to NO2 when IN2 = 0, to NC2 when IN2 = 1. |
| NC2 | Normally Closed Terminal (Channel 2) | Connected to COM2 when IN2 = 1; open when IN2 = 0 - used for fail-safe default paths. |
| V− | Negative Supply Rail | Accepts −3V to −8V; establishes reference for analog signal swing and logic thresholds. |
| IN2 | Logic Input for Switch 2 | Independent control of Channel 2; no crosstalk coupling to IN1 confirmed in test data. |
| COM1 | Analog Common Terminal (Channel 1) | Bidirectional node - connects to NO1 when IN1 = 1, to NC1 when IN1 = 0. |
| NO1 | Normally Open Terminal (Channel 1) | Connected to COM1 only when IN1 = 1 - enables active signal gating in power-sensitive systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Low Charge Injection | <5pC ensures sub-LSB error in 16-bit sample-and-hold circuits with 10nF hold capacitors. |
| Bipolar Supply Flexibility | Operates from ±3V to ±8V - eliminates need for external level shifters in mixed-signal industrial I/O modules. |
| High Off-Isolation | 72dB at 1MHz - suppresses crosstalk between audio channels or RF test signal paths. |
| ESD Robustness | >2000V per Method 3015.7 - sustains handling and board-level stress in ruggedized military radio assemblies. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel analog switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX322ESA | Same electrical specs, 8-pin SO package (3.9mm × 4.9mm), −40°C to +85°C temp range. | Better thermal dissipation and wider operating temperature - preferred for industrial control cabinets. | Select MAX322ESA when board space allows larger footprint and extended temperature compliance is required. |
| ADG1422BRMZ | Single-supply only (±15V max), 4.5Ω typical RON, no guaranteed break-before-make, 1000V ESD rating. | Lacks bipolar supply flexibility and BMB timing guarantee - unsuitable for fail-safe guidance systems. | Choose ADG1422BRMZ only for cost-sensitive single-supply designs where BMB is not safety-critical. |
Compared with MAX322ESA, the MAX322EUA offers identical switching performance in a 45% smaller footprint but trades −40°C low-temp capability for compactness; versus ADG1422BRMZ, it delivers guaranteed break-before-make and superior ESD robustness essential for military-grade reliability.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed break-before-make timing specification for MAX322EUA?
The MAX322EUA guarantees a minimum break-before-make delay of 2ns, measured under standard conditions (RL = 300Ω, CL = 35pF). This timing ensures no overlap between NC and NO conduction states during channel switching, preventing transient shorts in safety-critical analog paths. The specification applies exclusively to the MAX322 variant and is validated across the full 0°C to +70°C operating range of the MAX322EUA.
Can MAX322EUA operate with asymmetric dual supplies, such as +5V and −3V?
Yes, the MAX322EUA supports asymmetric dual supplies within its absolute maximum ratings: V+ must be between (V− − 0.3V) and +17V, and all analog pins tolerate signals from (V− − 0.3V) to (V+ + 0.3V). However, optimal RON, leakage, and switching speed are specified only for symmetric ±3V to ±8V operation. Using +5V/−3V may increase RON mismatch and reduce off-isolation - verify performance in final circuit conditions.
What is the maximum continuous current rating for each switch terminal in MAX322EUA?
Each terminal (COM, NO, NC) of the MAX322EUA is rated for 30mA continuous current. Peak current up to 100mA is allowed for pulses ≤1ms at ≤10% duty cycle. Exceeding these limits risks thermal overstress or parametric shift. For 30mA loads, ensure PCB traces and layout provide adequate copper area and thermal relief - especially critical in the 2.1mm × 2.1mm µMAX package of the MAX322EUA.
Does MAX322EUA require external protection diodes for overvoltage tolerance?
No, external protection diodes are not required for MAX322EUA under normal operation within its absolute maximum ratings. Internal clamp diodes protect analog pins against overvoltage, but forward current must be limited to ≤30mA. If analog signals may exceed (V+ + 0.3V) or fall below (V− − 0.3V), external diodes (as shown in Figure 1 of the MAX322EUA datasheet) are recommended - though they reduce usable signal range by ~0.7V and slightly increase RON at low supplies.
How does charge injection of MAX322EUA affect sample-and-hold circuit accuracy?
With guaranteed <5pC charge injection, the MAX322EUA introduces ≤0.5mV error on a 10nF hold capacitor - sufficient for 12-bit accuracy. In 16-bit systems, use smaller hold capacitors (e.g., 1nF) or add a reset pulse to cancel residual charge. The MAX322EUA's charge injection is tightly controlled across temperature and supply voltage, making it predictable and compensatable in precision data acquisition designs.
