Product details
Overview
MAX353MJE from Maxim Integrated is a precision quad SPST analog switch with two normally open (NO) and two normally closed (NC) channels, designed for high-reliability military and aerospace signal routing. It features 35Ω max on-resistance, <2Ω channel-to-channel match, <10pC charge injection, <6nA off-leakage at +85°C, and operates across -55°C to +125°C in 16-pin CERDIP packaging. It enables rail-to-rail analog switching in guidance systems and battery-operated test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX353MJE datasheet, MAX353MJE pinout, MAX353MJE application, or MAX353MJE equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal operating limits, logic interface compatibility (TTL/CMOS), dual- or single-supply operation (+10V to +30V or ±4.5V to ±20V), and MIL-grade packaging details critical for ruggedized system design.
Technical Context
The MAX353MJE implements four independent SPST switches using Maxim's 44V silicon-gate process, enabling rail-to-rail analog signal handling up to ±15.5V with guaranteed flat on-resistance (∆3Ω max) over full signal range. Its CMOS/TTL-compatible control inputs drive low-power switching (35µW typical) while maintaining ESD robustness >2000V per Method 3015.7.
Unlike standard analog switches, the MAX353MJE integrates mixed NO/NC topology in one package-channels 1 & 4 are NO, channels 2 & 3 are NC-supporting break-before-make timing (25ns typ) and precise signal path selection without external logic inversion. All parameters-including leakage, charge injection, and on-resistance matching-are guaranteed over its full -55°C to +125°C operating range.

Pinout & Package
MAX353MJE uses a hermetically sealed 16-pin CERDIP package (0.300" wide, JEDEC MS-001), optimized for thermal stability and moisture resistance in harsh environments. Pin 1 is IN1; pin 16 is COM1; pins 1–4 and 13–16 carry logic and analog signals; pins 4 (V−), 5 (GND), 11 (V+), and 12 (VL) provide supply connections.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4 | Logic Control Input | CMOS/TTL-compatible digital inputs controlling respective switch states; active-high logic |
| COM1–COM4 | Analog Switch Common Terminal | Signal input/output node shared between NO and NC paths per channel |
| NO1, NO4 | Analog Switch Normally Open Terminal | Connected to COMx only when corresponding INx = logic high |
| NC2, NC3 | Analog Switch Normally Closed Terminal | Connected to COMx only when corresponding INx = logic low |
| V+, V− | Positive/Negative Supply Voltage | Supports bipolar (±4.5V to ±20V) or single-supply (+10V to +30V) operation; substrate tied to V+ |
| VL | Logic Supply Voltage | Set to +5V for TTL compatibility or to V+ for CMOS-level inputs |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return for logic and analog sections; must be low-impedance in mixed-signal layouts |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX353EJE | Same die, -40°C to +85°C temp range, identical pinout and electrical specs except extended temp limits | Suitable for commercial/industrial use but not qualified for extended cold-start or high-temperature avionics | Select MAX353MJE when operation below -40°C or above +85°C is required; MAX353EJE suffices for non-military grade designs |
| ADG424BRZ | 44V supply rating, 45Ω RON, 25pC charge injection, -40°C to +85°C, SOIC-16 package | Lacks NO/NC mixing; higher leakage (10nA @ +85°C); no CERDIP option | Use ADG424BRZ only if SOIC packaging and relaxed leakage/timing specs are acceptable; not drop-in for MAX353MJE |
Compared with MAX353EJE and ADG424BRZ, the MAX353MJE uniquely combines extended temperature operation, mixed NO/NC topology, and hermetic CERDIP packaging-making it irreplaceable for mission-critical analog routing where environmental resilience and signal integrity are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by the MAX353MJE?
The MAX353MJE supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling up to ±15.5V when operated with ±16.5V supplies, enabled by its 44V breakdown voltage. This allows direct interfacing with high-voltage sensors and actuators without external level-shifting circuitry, and the specification is guaranteed across its full -55°C to +125°C operating range.
Does the MAX353MJE require separate logic and analog supplies?
No-the MAX353MJE uses a single VL pin that can be tied to either +5V for TTL compatibility or directly to V+ for CMOS-level inputs. Its logic inputs draw negligible current (<0.5µA), so no dedicated logic supply regulator is needed. The device operates with either dual supplies (±4.5V to ±20V) or a single positive supply (+10V to +30V), with V− connected to ground in single-supply mode.
How does the mixed NO/NC configuration of the MAX353MJE differ from the MAX351 and MAX352?
The MAX353MJE integrates two normally open (pins NO1, NO4) and two normally closed (pins NC2, NC3) switches in one package, whereas MAX351 has four NC and MAX352 has four NO. This hybrid topology enables simultaneous enable/disable of complementary signal paths-such as primary/backup sensor routing-without external inverters, reducing board area and propagation delay compared to using discrete MAX351/MAX352 pairs.
Is the MAX353MJE pin-compatible with other variants in the MAX35x family?
Yes-the MAX353MJE shares identical pinout and footprint with all MAX351/MAX352/MAX353 variants in the 16-pin CERDIP package (e.g., MAX353EJE, MAX351MJE). Electrical behavior differs only in channel configuration (NO/NC assignment) and temperature grading; no PCB layout changes are required when substituting within the same package type.
What is the guaranteed charge injection specification for the MAX353MJE, and why does it matter?
The MAX353MJE guarantees ≤10pC charge injection, measured with CL = 1.0nF, VGEN = 0V, and RGEN = 0Ω. This low value minimizes voltage glitches on high-impedance nodes-critical in sample-and-hold circuits, precision DAC output buffering, and sensor front-ends-where even picocoulomb-level injection causes measurable settling errors or baseline drift.
Can the MAX353MJE be used in single-supply +12V systems with TTL-level control inputs?
Yes-the MAX353MJE supports single-supply operation from +10V to +30V. For TTL compatibility, connect VL to +5V while powering V+ at +12V and V− to ground. Input thresholds remain valid (VINH = 2.4V, VINL = 0.8V), and all key specs-including on-resistance, leakage, and switching speed-are characterized and guaranteed under these conditions per the datasheet's "Single Supply" electrical characteristics table.
