Product details
Overview
MAX4503CUK+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage, dual-supply, normally-open (NO) SPST CMOS analog switch in SOT23-5 package, rated for 0°C to +70°C operation. It supports rail-to-rail analog signal switching across ±1V to ±6V dual supplies, delivers 250Ω on-resistance at ±5V, and exhibits only 1nA off-leakage at +25°C - enabling precision signal routing in battery-powered audio and data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4503CUK+T datasheet, MAX4503CUK+T pinout, MAX4503CUK+T application, or MAX4503CUK+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance flatness over temperature, ultra-low charge injection (≤10pC), CMOS-logic compatibility without ground reference, and validated performance in ±3V/±5V dual-supply configurations.
Technical Context
The MAX4503CUK+T implements a fully differential CMOS transmission-gate architecture with independent ESD diodes on COM, NO, IN, V+, and V− pins - enabling bidirectional rail-to-rail analog conduction and intrinsic overvoltage clamping. Its logic-level translator references VIN thresholds to V+, eliminating need for ground connection while maintaining CMOS compatibility across supply voltages.
Switching dynamics are defined by 150ns turn-on and 100ns turn-off times into 1kΩ/1nF loads, with off-isolation exceeding −90dB at 100kHz and on-capacitance of 9pF at 1MHz. Analog leakage paths are strictly confined between signal pins and V+/V− supplies - no internal ground path exists, ensuring isolation integrity in floating or split-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | ±1V to ±6V dual supply - enables operation from low-voltage battery rails up to industrial ±5V systems |
| On-Resistance | 250Ω max at ±5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and THD impact in audio/data paths |
| Off-Leakage Current | 1nA max at +25°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor front-ends and sample-hold circuits |
| Charge Injection | 10pC max - limits voltage glitch on sampled nodes, critical for precision ADC input multiplexing |
| Switching Speed | tON = 150ns, tOFF = 100ns - supports >1MHz multiplexing rates in data-acquisition applications |
| Analog Signal Range | Rail-to-rail (V− to V+) - allows full utilization of supply headroom without clipping |
| Logic Compatibility | CMOS-input with V+ referenced thresholds - eliminates external level-shifting in single-supply logic domains |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4501CUK+T | Pin-for-pin equivalent but single-supply only (1.8V to 12V); lacks dual-supply capability and rail-to-rail negative swing | Restricted to unipolar signal chains; cannot replace MAX4503CUK+T in ±3V audio or bipolar sensor interfaces | Select only when system uses single-ended supplies and analog signals remain ≥0V |
| ADG1419BRMZ | Single-supply 5V operation; 3.8Ω on-resistance; requires ground reference; higher 25pC charge injection | Better for low-RON digital signal switching; unsuitable for low-leakage, floating, or dual-rail analog paths | Prefer for high-speed digital multiplexing where leakage and charge injection are secondary concerns |
Compared with MAX4503CUK+T, MAX4501CUK+T sacrifices dual-supply flexibility for simpler supply architecture, while ADG1419BRMZ trades ultra-low leakage and ground-free operation for lower on-resistance - making MAX4503CUK+T uniquely suited for precision, floating, bipolar analog routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum dual-supply voltage range supported by the MAX4503CUK+T?
The MAX4503CUK+T operates continuously with dual supplies from ±1V up to ±6V. At ±5V, it guarantees 250Ω on-resistance and 1nA off-leakage at +25°C. Operation beyond ±6V violates absolute maximum ratings and risks permanent damage. The device's internal ESD diodes clamp signals exceeding V+ or V−, limiting safe analog input to the supply rails.
Does the MAX4503CUK+T require a ground connection to function?
No - the MAX4503CUK+T has no ground pin and does not require a ground reference. Its logic input is internally referenced to V+, and analog signal paths are isolated between V+ and V−. This enables true floating operation in isolated systems, such as battery-powered equipment with split-rail supplies or galvanically separated signal chains.
How does the MAX4503CUK+T achieve CMOS-logic compatibility without a ground pin?
The MAX4503CUK+T uses an internal logic-level translator that references VINH and VINL thresholds to V+. With V+ = +5V, VINH ≥ 3.5V and VINL ≤ 1.5V meet standard CMOS logic levels. This architecture eliminates dependence on ground while maintaining compatibility with microcontrollers and FPGAs powered from the same V+ rail - a key feature confirmed in the device's Electrical Characteristics table.
What is the significance of 10pC maximum charge injection in the MAX4503CUK+T?
The 10pC maximum charge injection specification for the MAX4503CUK+T quantifies the transient voltage glitch induced on a sampled capacitor when the switch turns off. In precision applications like ADC input multiplexing or sample-and-hold circuits, this low value minimizes settling error and avoids corruption of high-resolution measurements - a parameter rigorously tested and guaranteed per the datasheet's Note 4.
Can the MAX4503CUK+T be used in place of the MAX4504CUK+T?
No - the MAX4503CUK+T is normally open (NO), while the MAX4504CUK+T is normally closed (NC). Their switch states are complementary: MAX4503CUK+T conducts only when IN = HIGH, whereas MAX4504CUK+T conducts when IN = LOW. Substituting one for the other would invert control logic and disrupt system functionality unless firmware and circuit timing are redesigned accordingly.
