Product details
Overview
MAX395EAG+ from Maxim Integrated is an 8-channel, serially controlled, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch IC with rail-to-rail signal handling, 100Ω max on-resistance (±5V supplies), 5Ω max channel-to-channel on-resistance match, and <0.1nA off-leakage at +25°C. It operates from ±2.7V to ±8V dual supplies or +2.7V to +16V single supply, and is used in precision data-acquisition multiplexing and industrial control signal routing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX395EAG+ datasheet, MAX395EAG+ pinout, MAX395EAG+ application, or MAX395EAG+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its SPI/QSPI/Microwire-compatible 3-wire serial interface, daisy-chainable DOUT output, asynchronous RESET input, TTL/CMOS logic compatibility at +5V/±5V, and guaranteed -40°C to +85°C operating range.
Technical Context
The MAX395EAG+ implements an 8-bit shift register architecture synchronized to SCLK's rising edge, with latch update triggered by the rising edge of CS-fully compliant with SPI Mode 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and Microwire protocols. Its internal logic drives eight independent CMOS transmission gates, each with matched RON and flat RON over ±3V signal range.
It supports daisy-chaining via DOUT-to-DIN cascading under shared CS control, enabling simultaneous configuration of multiple devices. The asynchronous RESET pin forces all switches OFF and clears the shift register independently of clock or CS state-critical for fail-safe system initialization.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX395EAG+ is housed in a 24-pin wide-body SOIC (SO) package (suffix WG), with 0.300" body width and standard JEDEC MS-013AC footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SCLK (Pin 1) | Serial clock input | Edge-triggered synchronous clock for shift register; rising edge clocks DIN data into register |
| V+ (Pin 2) | Positive analog supply | Sets upper voltage limit for analog signals; powers internal CMOS switch drivers |
| DIN (Pin 3) | Serial data input | 8-bit control word input; bit D7 is first shifted in and controls NO7/COM7 switch |
| GND (Pin 4) | Digital ground reference | Reference for digital inputs only; analog signals are referenced solely to V+ and V− |
| NO0–NO7 (Pins 5,7,9,11,14,16,18,20) | Normally open switch terminals | Interchangeable with COM pins; bidirectional signal path with identical RON and leakage |
| COM0–COM7 (Pins 6,8,10,12,13,15,17,19) | Common switch terminals | Interchangeable with NO pins; forms SPST connection when paired with corresponding NO |
| V− (Pin 21) | Negative analog supply | Sets lower voltage limit for analog signals; tied to GND for single-supply operation |
| DOUT (Pin 22) | Serial data output | Shift register Q7 output; enables daisy-chaining of multiple MAX395EAG+ devices |
| RESET (Pin 23) | Asynchronous reset input | Active-low; forces all switches OFF and clears shift register regardless of clock or CS state |
| CS (Pin 24) | Chip select input | Active-low; latches 8-bit shift register contents to analog switches on rising edge |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage range supported by the MAX395EAG+?
The MAX395EAG+ supports dual supplies from ±2.7V to ±8V or a single supply from +2.7V to +16V. Absolute maximum ratings specify V+ up to +17V and V− down to −17V, but continuous operation must remain within the specified ranges to ensure reliability and parametric compliance. Operation outside these ranges risks permanent damage or degraded RON and leakage performance.
Does the MAX395EAG+ support daisy-chaining, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX395EAG+ supports daisy-chaining via its DOUT pin, which outputs the Q7 bit of the internal 8-bit shift register. To cascade multiple devices, connect DOUT of one MAX395EAG+ to DIN of the next, tie all CS pins together, and drive SCLK synchronously. On the rising edge of CS, all devices simultaneously latch their respective 8-bit words-enabling coordinated switching across large analog matrices without additional control lines.
What is the function of the RESET pin on the MAX395EAG+, and is it mandatory to use?
The RESET pin on the MAX395EAG+ is an asynchronous active-low input that forces all eight switches OFF and clears the internal shift register to zero-regardless of SCLK or CS state. While not mandatory for basic operation, it is strongly recommended for system-level reliability to ensure a known safe state at power-up, brownout, or fault recovery. Leaving RESET unconnected or floating is not advised; tie to V+ (via pull-up) or controlled logic for deterministic behavior.
Can the MAX395EAG+ be used in single-supply configurations, and what are the analog signal limits?
Yes, the MAX395EAG+ operates in single-supply mode by connecting V− to GND. In this configuration, the analog signal range extends from 0V (GND) to V+, supporting rail-to-rail operation-for example, 0V to +5V or 0V to +12V. All electrical specifications-including RON, leakage, and switching speed-are characterized across single-supply conditions (e.g., +3V, +5V, +12V) and remain fully valid per the datasheet's single-supply electrical characteristics tables.
How does the MAX395EAG+ handle bidirectional analog signals, and are NO and COM pins interchangeable?
Yes, NO and COM pins on the MAX395EAG+ are fully interchangeable and function identically in either direction-signals pass with equal RON, leakage, and bandwidth regardless of orientation. This bidirectionality is inherent to its CMOS transmission-gate topology and is explicitly confirmed in the Pin Description section: "NO_ and COM_ pins are identical and interchangeable. Either may be considered as an input or an output." Designers may assign roles freely (e.g., NO as input/COM as output or vice versa) without performance penalty.
