Product details
Overview
MAX354CWE+T from Maxim Integrated is a fault-protected single 8-channel analog multiplexer with series N-P-N switch architecture, 350Ω max on-resistance, ±4.5V to ±18V dual-supply operation (or +4.5V to +36V single supply), and guaranteed break-before-make switching. It protects downstream circuitry from overvoltage faults up to ±40V with supplies off and clamps outputs at 1.5V below supply rails during overvoltage events-used in industrial data-acquisition systems requiring robust signal routing under transient stress.
For engineers reviewing the MAX354CWE+T datasheet, MAX354CWE+T pinout, MAX354CWE+T application, or MAX354CWE+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its fault-protection threshold (±40V with supplies off), leakage performance (<0.5nA at +25°C), TTL/CMOS logic compatibility without pull-ups, 180ns transition time, and wide temperature range (0°C to +70°C) in 16-pin wide SO package.
Technical Context
The MAX354CWE+T implements a three-FET series structure (N–P–N) that dynamically limits fault current by increasing on-resistance when analog inputs exceed V+ − 1.5V or V− + 3V-enabling safe operation across ±40V input transients regardless of power state. Its digital interface uses fixed 0.8V/2.4V logic thresholds referenced to GND, independent of supply voltage, ensuring reliable control with TTL or CMOS drivers.
When used as a demultiplexer, it maintains full fault protection and break-before-make timing (100ns typical). Output clamping preserves polarity and prevents glitches during overvoltage transitions, while charge injection (≤180pC at ±15V) and off-isolation (>100dB at 100kHz) support precision signal integrity in high-reliability measurement paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Pinout & Package
MAX354CWE+T is housed in a 16-pin wide SO (SOIC-W) package with 0.3-inch body width and standard 1.27mm pitch. Pin 1 is marked with a dot; pin numbering follows standard SOIC convention (counterclockwise from top-left corner).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 16 | A0, A2 | Address inputs selecting one of eight channels (A2 active only in MAX354); logic-compatible with 0.8V/2.4V thresholds |
| 2 | A1 | Second address bit; combined with A0/A2 to decode NO1–NO8 to COM path |
| 3 | V− | Negative supply rail; connect to GND for single-supply operation (+4.5V to +36V) |
| 4–7 | NO1–NO4 | Bidirectional analog inputs/outputs; electrically identical and interchangeable with NO5–NO8 |
| 8 | COM | Common analog terminal; serves as input (mux mode) or output (demux mode) with full fault protection |
| 9–12 | NO5–NO8 | Bidirectional analog terminals; share same electrical specs and protection behavior as NO1–NO4 |
| 13 | GND | Ground reference for logic and internal bias; forms isolation barrier between digital and analog sections |
| 14 | V+ | Positive supply rail; total V+–V− differential must be ≥±4.5V for guaranteed operation |
| 15 | EN | Enable input controlling all switches; low disables all paths, high enables selected channel with break-before-make |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fault protection with supplies off | Withstands ±40V continuous overvoltage even when V+ and V− are unpowered-no external TVS required |
| Output clamping during fault | Clamps COM output to ~1.5V below V+ or above V−, preserving polarity and preventing latch-up in connected ICs |
| No power-up sequencing | Operates correctly regardless of V+, V−, or logic signal ramp order-eliminates complex supply coordination |
| All-switches-off default | Outputs remain open-circuit when EN = low or supplies are absent-prevents unintended signal coupling |
| TTL/CMOS logic compatibility | 0.8V/2.4V thresholds function reliably across full temperature range without pull-up resistors or level shifters |
Applications
| Industrial Data-Acquisition Systems | Avionics Signal Routing |

Use Value: Enables accurate settling to 0.01% within microseconds despite 100pF load capacitance-critical for high-speed parametric testing. |
Use Scenario: Implementing failover paths in safety-critical infrastructure (e.g., power grid monitoring) where primary and backup sensors feed parallel processing chains. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fault-isolated signal gate ensuring backup channel remains electrically disconnected until activated, with zero cross-talk during standby. Use Value: >100dB off-isolation at 100kHz prevents interference between active and standby paths, meeting IEC 61508 SIL-2 requirements. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fault-protected analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG508FBRZ | Pin-compatible but lacks ±40V fault protection with supplies off; rated for ±20V max overvoltage only when powered | Suitable for lower-risk industrial environments where external protection is acceptable | Select ADG508FBRZ only if system-level fault coverage is provided externally and cost is prioritized over intrinsic resilience |
| MAX358ESE+ | Same fault-protection architecture but dual 4-channel configuration (MAX355 family); not pin-compatible with MAX354CWE+T | Preferred when space-constrained designs require two independent 4-channel muxes instead of one 8-channel unit | Choose MAX358ESE+ when board layout favors dual smaller muxes or when channel grouping simplifies routing |
Compared with ADG508FBRZ, MAX354CWE+T delivers superior intrinsic fault resilience without external components; versus MAX358ESE+, it offers higher channel density in a single package but requires different PCB layout and address decoding.

FAQ
What is the maximum overvoltage the MAX354CWE+T can withstand with power supplies disconnected?
The MAX354CWE+T withstands continuous ±40V overvoltage on any analog terminal-even when V+ and V− are unpowered. This is enabled by its series N-P-N FET structure, which blocks current flow via gate-source voltage biasing. The MAX354CWE+T does not require external clamping devices in such scenarios, making it ideal for hot-swap or maintenance-mode operation.
Does the MAX354CWE+T support single-supply operation, and what is the minimum voltage?
Yes, the MAX354CWE+T supports single-supply operation from +4.5V to +36V. Connect V− to GND, and ensure V+ ≥ +4.5V. At +4.5V, the analog output swing is limited to approximately +3.5V to −2V relative to GND, and switching times double-but break-before-make timing remains guaranteed. The MAX354CWE+T maintains 0.8V/2.4V logic thresholds regardless of supply configuration.
How does the MAX354CWE+T behave during an overvoltage event on an enabled channel?
When an overvoltage exceeds V+ − 1.5V or V− + 3V on an enabled channel, the MAX354CWE+T's internal N- or P-channel FET turns off, increasing on-resistance to near-infinity and clamping the COM output at ~1.5V below V+ or above V−. Polarity is preserved, no glitches occur, and leakage remains <5nA at +85°C. The MAX354CWE+T resumes normal operation immediately upon return to safe voltage levels.
Is the MAX354CWE+T pin-compatible with the ADG508F/ADG509F series?
Yes, the MAX354CWE+T is explicitly designed as a pin-compatible replacement for ADG508F and ADG509F, sharing identical pinout, logic thresholds, and footprint. However, unlike those parts, the MAX354CWE+T adds intrinsic ±40V fault protection with supplies off and improved leakage performance (<0.5nA vs. ~1nA typical for ADG508F), making it a functional upgrade without PCB redesign.
What is the guaranteed break-before-make interval for the MAX354CWE+T, and why is it critical?
The MAX354CWE+T guarantees a minimum 100ns break-before-make interval during channel switching. This prevents momentary shorting between two analog inputs (e.g., NO1 and NO2), which could damage upstream sensors or cause signal corruption in high-precision measurement systems. The timing is process- and temperature-invariant, ensuring reliability across 0°C to +70°C operation of the MAX354CWE+T.
