Product details
Overview
MAX336CWI+T from Maxim Integrated is a 16-channel, single-ended CMOS analog multiplexer designed to route one of 16 bidirectional analog inputs (NO1–NO16) to a common output (COM) under 4-bit binary address control (A0–A3). It features 400Ω max on-resistance, <20pA NO-off leakage at +25°C, and 3.5pC typical charge injection-enabling precision data acquisition in test equipment and signal routing systems operating from +4.5V to +30V single supply or ±4.5V to ±20V dual supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MAX336CWI+T datasheet, MAX336CWI+T pinout, MAX336CWI+T application, or MAX336CWI+T equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail bidirectional signal handling, TTL/CMOS-compatible enable and address inputs, guaranteed low leakage across temperature, and compatibility with legacy DG506/DG507 layouts in wide SO-28 packaging.
Technical Context
The MAX336CWI+T implements a monolithic BiCMOS decoder-driver architecture that decodes A0–A3 to select one of 16 NMOS/PMOS transmission-gate switch paths between NOx terminals and COM. All switches conduct equally in both directions, supporting true bidirectional analog signal routing without polarity constraints.
Its control logic accepts TTL-level inputs (0.8V to 2.4V) across full supply ranges (±4.5V to ±18V or +4.5V to +30V), and includes an active-low enable (EN) that places all switches in high-impedance off-state when deasserted-critical for channel isolation in multiplexed sensor arrays and automated test systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channel Count | 16-channel single-ended mux: selects one analog input (NO1–NO16) to shared COM output |
| On-Resistance (max) | 400Ω at TA = +25°C, VCOM = ±10V: ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision instrumentation |
| NO-Off Leakage (max) | 20pA at +25°C: preserves high-impedance node integrity in low-current sensor front-ends |
| Charge Injection (typ) | 3.5pC: limits voltage glitch on sampled-hold capacitors in data acquisition systems |
| Supply Range | +4.5V to +30V single or ±4.5V to ±20V dual: supports industrial ±15V and battery-powered +5V/+12V systems |
| Transition Time (max) | 500ns: enables sub-microsecond channel switching in automated test equipment |
| ESD Protection | >2000V per Method 3015.7: enhances robustness during board handling and system integration |
Pinout & Package
MAX336CWI+T is housed in a 28-pin Wide SO (SOIC-W) package with 300-mil body width and standard gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; pin numbering follows counter-clockwise convention from top-left.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive supply voltage input | Accepts +4.5V to +30V (single) or up to +20V (dual); must be powered before V− and logic inputs |
| V− | Negative supply voltage input | Accepts −4.5V to −20V (dual); connect to GND for single-supply operation |
| GND | Logic ground reference | Reference for TTL/CMOS inputs (EN, A0–A3); separate from analog signal ground paths |
| COM | Common analog output terminal | Bidirectional rail-to-rail node; connects to selected NOx channel when enabled |
| NO1–NO16 | Analog input/output terminals | 16 bidirectional, interchangeable analog ports; no internal directionality |
| A0–A3 | Binary address inputs | 4-bit code selects active channel (0000 = NO1, 1111 = NO16); TTL/CMOS compatible |
| EN | Enable input (active-high) | High enables switching; low forces all channels into high-Z off-state for isolation |
| N.C. | No internal connection | Pins 2, 3, 13: unused; must remain unconnected or tied to GND/V+ per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail bidirectional signal handling | Supports analog signals from V− to V+ without clipping-enables full dynamic range use in ±15V or +12V systems |
| Guaranteed low charge injection (3.5pC typ) | Minimizes sampling error in precision ADC front-ends and sample-and-hold circuits |
| Pin-compatible upgrade for DG506/DG507 | Direct replacement in existing designs without PCB modification-reduces redesign time and qualification effort |
| Sub-20pA off-leakage at +25°C | Preserves accuracy in high-impedance pH sensors, photodiode amplifiers, and electrometer-grade measurement nodes |
| TTL/CMOS-compatible control inputs | Operates reliably with microcontroller GPIO, FPGA I/O, and logic families across full temperature and supply range |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX336CAI+ | Same electrical specs; SSOP-28 package (5.6mm × 13.9mm vs. SO-28's 7.6mm × 17.9mm) | Higher board density required; less thermal mass than SO-28 | Select for space-constrained PCBs where thermal dissipation is managed externally |
| ADG506AKRZ | 440Ω max on-resistance; 25pA max NO-off leakage at +25°C; no guaranteed charge injection spec | Lower ESD rating (1500V HBM); not pin-compatible-requires layout change | Choose when ADI ecosystem alignment or alternate qualification path is prioritized over drop-in replacement |
Compared with MAX336CAI+, the MAX336CWI+T offers superior thermal performance and hand-solderability in wide SO; compared with ADG506AKRZ, it delivers lower leakage, tighter charge injection control, and proven DG506 pin compatibility-making it optimal for legacy upgrades and high-precision signal chains.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for MAX336CWI+T?
The MAX336CWI+T supports a single supply from +4.5V to +30V or dual supplies from ±4.5V to ±20V. Absolute maximum ratings specify V+ to V− differential must not exceed 44V, and V+ must not exceed −0.3V to +44V relative to V−. Exceeding these limits risks permanent damage, even if within individual rail specifications.
Does MAX336CWI+T support bidirectional analog signal flow?
Yes, the MAX336CWI+T supports fully bidirectional analog signal routing. Its CMOS transmission-gate architecture allows current flow in either direction between any NOx pin and the COM pin, with identical on-resistance and leakage characteristics-enabling flexible use as a multiplexer or demultiplexer without signal polarity constraints.
Is MAX336CWI+T pin-compatible with the industry-standard DG506?
Yes, the MAX336CWI+T is explicitly designed as a pin-compatible upgrade for the DG506. Pin assignments, supply connections, address inputs (A0–A3), enable (EN), COM, and NO1–NO16 match exactly-allowing direct replacement in existing DG506 layouts without PCB revision or firmware changes.
What is the typical charge injection value for MAX336CWI+T, and why does it matter?
The MAX336CWI+T has a typical charge injection of 3.5pC, measured with CL = 100pF and RS = 0Ω. This parameter directly impacts voltage glitches on sampling capacitors in data acquisition systems; lower charge injection reduces settling time and improves effective resolution in switched-capacitor ADC front-ends and sample-and-hold circuits.
Can MAX336CWI+T operate from a single +5V supply?
Yes, the MAX336CWI+T operates from +4.5V to +30V single supply. At +5V, on-resistance increases to ~700Ω (max), and transition time extends to ~600ns-still functional for many low-speed applications, though performance metrics degrade versus ±15V or +12V operation. Ensure analog signal range remains within 0V to +5V.
