Product details
Overview
MAX4052CPE from Maxim Integrated is a dual 4-channel CMOS analog multiplexer configured for bidirectional rail-to-rail signal routing in low-voltage systems. It operates from ±2.7V to ±8V dual supplies or +2.7V to +16V single supply, delivers 100Ω typical on-resistance at ±5V, guarantees ≤12Ω channel-to-channel on-resistance match, and exhibits 0.1nA max off-leakage at +25°C - enabling precision signal selection in battery-powered data acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4052CPE datasheet, MAX4052CPE pinout, MAX4052CPE application, or MAX4052CPE equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance flatness (≤18Ω), break-before-make timing (≤200ns), TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, low crosstalk (<–90dB), and DIP-16 package compatibility with legacy 74HC4052 layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX4052CPE implements two independent 4:1 analog multiplexers using matched CMOS transmission gates driven by address-decoded logic. Each section accepts three digital address inputs (ADDA, ADDB, INH) to select one of four NOx inputs to connect to its COM terminal, with full rail-to-rail analog swing support across V+ and V− rails.
Its internal architecture features ESD-protection diodes between all analog pins and both supply rails, enabling overvoltage tolerance while maintaining low leakage (≤0.1nA off-leakage at +25°C) and low charge injection (≤10pC), critical for high-accuracy sampling and low-distortion audio routing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | ±2.7V to ±8V dual or +2.7V to +16V single - supports portable and industrial supply architectures without level-shifting. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 100Ω max at ±5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in sensor front-ends and DAC outputs. |
| On-Resistance Match | 12Ω max between channels - preserves channel-to-channel amplitude consistency in multi-signal acquisition systems. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 0.1nA max at +25°C - prevents DC offset drift in high-impedance transducer interfaces and precision integrators. |
| Crosstalk | <–90dB at 100kHz - maintains signal integrity when routing multiple audio or sensor channels on shared PCB traces. |
| Turn-On Time | 175ns max - enables sub-microsecond channel switching for real-time multiplexed control loops. |
| Logic Thresholds | VIL = 0.8V, VIH = 2.4V at +5V supply - ensures reliable interfacing with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers without external translators. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4052CPE uses a 16-pin plastic DIP package (0.300" wide) with through-hole mounting and industry-standard pin spacing. Pin 1 is top-left corner, notch-up orientation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive analog/digital supply | Drives internal switch gates and logic; sets upper analog signal limit (VCOM/NO ≤ V+). |
| V− | Negative analog supply | Drives internal switch gates; sets lower analog signal limit (VCOM/NO ≥ V−); tied to GND for single-supply use. |
| GND | Digital ground reference | Reference for logic inputs only; no analog current path - analog signals float between V+ and V−. |
| INH | Digital inhibit input | Active-high global disable: drives all switches open regardless of address inputs. |
| ADDA, ADDB | Binary address inputs | Select one of four NOx inputs per multiplexer section (00→NO0, 01→NO1, 10→NO2, 11→NO3). |
| COMA, COMB | Analog common terminals | Outputs of multiplexer sections A and B; bidirectional - may serve as input or output. |
| NO0A–NO3A, NO0B–NO3B | Analog normally-open inputs | Eight total analog inputs (four per section); interchangeable with NC pins per datasheet note. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PIN-compatible with 74HC4052 | Direct drop-in replacement in existing designs using standard 16-pin DIP footprints and logic-level interfaces. |
| Rail-to-rail analog signal handling | Supports input/output signals spanning full V+ to V− range - eliminates clipping in ±5V op-amp circuits and unipolar 0–5V sensor outputs. |
| Low distortion & high off-isolation | <0.04% THD at 1kHz and <–90dB off-isolation - preserves fidelity in audio routing and prevents coupling in mixed-signal test equipment. |
| Guaranteed dynamic timing | Break-before-make delay ≤200ns and transition time ≤250ns - prevents momentary shorting during channel changes in feedback paths. |
| Single-supply operation down to +2.7V | Enables integration into 3V battery-powered systems without auxiliary voltage rails or regulators. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4052ACPE | Characterized for tighter on-resistance match (6Ω vs. 12Ω) and lower leakage (0.1nA vs. 0.1nA at +25°C, but 5nA vs. 1nA at +85°C). | Suitable for higher-temperature industrial environments (>70°C) requiring guaranteed performance over full –40°C to +85°C range. | Select MAX4052ACPE when operating above +70°C or when channel matching below 10Ω is required for ratiometric measurements. |
| 74HC4052N | Higher on-resistance (120Ω typ at 4.5V), no guaranteed leakage specs, wider timing variation (tON up to 400ns), and no bipolar supply support. | Limited to 2V–6V single-supply operation; unsuitable for ±5V sensor conditioning or low-leakage precision applications. | Choose 74HC4052N only for cost-sensitive, room-temperature, single-supply digital I/O multiplexing where leakage and matching are non-critical. |
Compared with MAX4052ACPE, the MAX4052CPE offers identical pinout and logic but relaxed matching and leakage specs for commercial-temperature use; versus 74HC4052N, it adds bipolar supply capability, guaranteed low leakage, and tighter timing - making it superior for precision analog routing.

FAQ
What supply voltage ranges does the MAX4052CPE support?
The MAX4052CPE supports dual supplies from ±2.7V to ±8V and single supplies from +2.7V to +16V. When using a single supply, V− must be connected to GND. Operation at +2.7V enables direct compatibility with Li-ion and two-cell alkaline battery systems, while the ±8V range accommodates industrial ±5V and ±12V signal chains without level translation.
How many analog channels does the MAX4052CPE provide, and how are they controlled?
The MAX4052CPE provides two independent 4:1 analog multiplexers (eight total inputs). Each section is controlled by two binary address inputs (ADDA and ADDB) plus an active-high inhibit (INH) pin. Address combinations 00, 01, 10, and 11 route NO0–NO3 to COMA or COMB respectively; asserting INH opens all switches regardless of address state.
What is the maximum on-resistance specification for the MAX4052CPE, and why does it matter?
The MAX4052CPE has a guaranteed maximum on-resistance of 100Ω at ±5V supplies. This value directly impacts signal attenuation, gain error in amplifier feedback paths, and settling time in sampled-data systems. For example, driving a 10kΩ load introduces only 1% gain error, whereas a 1kΩ load sees ~10% error - making RON critical in precision sensor interfaces and DAC output buffering.
Does the MAX4052CPE require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its address pins?
No, the MAX4052CPE does not require external biasing on ADDA, ADDB, or INH. Its digital inputs have guaranteed TTL/CMOS-compatible thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.8V, VIH ≥ 2.4V at +5V supply) and low input current (±1µA), allowing direct connection to microcontroller GPIOs or logic gates without pull resistors - simplifying layout and reducing BOM count.
Can the MAX4052CPE handle signals beyond the supply rails?
No - the MAX4052CPE cannot safely handle analog signals exceeding V+ or falling below V−. Internal ESD diodes clamp such signals, potentially causing excessive current flow and damage. The absolute maximum rating specifies (V− − 2V) to (V+ + 2V) for any terminal, but functional operation requires strict adherence to the analog signal range of V− to V+. External clamping or level-shifting is required for overvoltage-tolerant designs.
