Product details
Overview
The MAX4525EUB from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage, single-supply DPDT analog switch configured for bidirectional signal routing in battery-powered and low-noise systems; it features 200Ω on-resistance at +5V, 2nA max off-leakage at +25°C, rail-to-rail analog signal handling, and TTL/CMOS-compatible logic thresholds - deployed in audio/video routing and low-voltage data-acquisition front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4525EUB datasheet, MAX4525EUB pinout, MAX4525EUB application, or MAX4525EUB equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, µMAX package layout, real-world switching performance (tON/tOFF, charge injection), and validated alternatives for signal-path continuity in portable instrumentation and communications circuits.
Technical Context
The MAX4525EUB implements a dual-pole/dual-throw (DPDT) topology with independent COMA/COMB, NOA/NOB, and NCA/NCB terminals, controlled by two address inputs (ADDA, ADDB) and a global inhibit (INH). Its CMOS transmission-gate architecture supports bidirectional analog signals across the full V+ to GND range without polarity constraints.
All digital inputs feature fixed 0.8V/2.4V logic thresholds under +5V supply, eliminating level-shifting needs; internal ESD diodes clamp analog pins to V+ and GND, requiring external protection only when signals exceed supply rails - critical for robustness in handheld test equipment and sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | +2V to +12V single supply - enables direct integration into 3.3V or 5V systems without auxiliary rails. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 200Ω at +5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths. |
| On-Resistance Match | ≤8Ω between channels at +5V - preserves gain/phase matching in differential or multi-channel signal routing. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 2nA max at +25°C - maintains high-impedance isolation for sensitive sensor or DAC output buffering. |
| Switching Speed | tON = 200ns, tOFF = 180ns (RL = 300Ω, CL = 35pF) - supports fast multiplexing in data-acquisition sampling control. |
| Charge Injection | 0.8–5pC - limits voltage glitch on sampled-hold nodes, critical for ADC front-end accuracy. |
| Analog Signal Range | Rail-to-rail (GND to V+) - allows full-swing AC/DC coupling without clipping in audio or sensor conditioning. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4525EUB is housed in a 10-pin µMAX package (3mm × 3mm, 0.5mm pitch), thermally enhanced with an exposed pad connected to V+. Pin functions are electrically identical across all analog terminals (NO/NC/COM), supporting flexible PCB layout and signal direction reversal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NOA) | Analog "A" Normally Open | Connects to COMA when switch A is activated; bidirectional path for primary signal channel. |
| 2 (COMA) | Analog "A" Common | Central node for switch A; routes signal between NOA and NCA based on ADDA/ADDB state. |
| 3 (NCA) | Analog "A" Normally Closed | Connects to COMA when switch A is inactive; provides default path without logic assertion. |
| 4 (INH) | Inhibit Control Input | Active-high logic input that forces all switches open - used for system-level power-down or fault isolation. |
| 5 (GND) | Digital Ground Reference | Reference for logic inputs and internal translators; no analog ground connection required. |
| 6 (ADDB) | Address Input B | Second bit of 2-bit DPDT control word; selects pole B state alongside ADDA. |
| 7 (ADDA) | Address Input A | First bit of 2-bit DPDT control word; determines COMA/COMB connection to NO/NC pairs. |
| 8 (NOB) | Analog "B" Normally Open | Connects to COMB when switch B is activated; independent second signal path. |
| 9 (COMB) | Analog "B" Common | Central node for switch B; mirrors COMA functionality for dual-channel operation. |
| 10 (V+) | Positive Supply | Powers analog switches and logic circuitry; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB V+ plane for thermal stability. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DPDT analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG732BRUZ | 16-channel SPST, 4Ω RON at +3V, 1.8V–5.5V supply - lower on-resistance but no DPDT configuration. | Requires external logic to emulate DPDT behavior; unsuitable for true break-before-make routing. | Select when channel count >2 is needed and discrete control of each path is acceptable. |
| TS5A23157DGSR | DPDT, 0.9Ω RON at +3V, 1.65V–5.5V supply - superior RON but 25nA off-leakage at +85°C vs. MAX4525EUB's 20nA. | Better for high-speed USB 2.0 switching; less optimal for precision DC-coupled sensor paths due to higher leakage. | Prefer for 3.3V systems demanding lowest possible insertion loss, accepting trade-off in high-temp leakage. |
Compared with ADG732BRUZ and TS5A23157DGSR, the MAX4525EUB uniquely combines native DPDT topology, guaranteed RON matching, and sub-2nA off-leakage at room temperature - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-operated instrumentation requiring deterministic signal routing without external logic overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the MAX4525EUB?
The MAX4525EUB is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed by its ordering code suffix 'E' and Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This extended temperature range supports deployment in automotive cabin modules, outdoor instrumentation, and industrial control panels where ambient conditions exceed commercial-grade limits. The device maintains specified RON, leakage, and switching performance across this full range.
Does the MAX4525EUB require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its logic inputs?
No, the MAX4525EUB does not require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on ADDA, ADDB, or INH inputs. Its logic thresholds are fixed at 0.8V (VIL) and 2.4V (VIH) under +5V supply, ensuring direct compatibility with standard 3.3V or 5V microcontroller GPIOs. Internal input structures provide sufficient noise immunity without external biasing - simplifying layout in space-constrained PCBs.
Can the MAX4525EUB handle bipolar analog signals?
No, the MAX4525EUB cannot handle true bipolar analog signals (e.g., ±2.5V) because its analog signal range is strictly rail-to-rail between GND and V+, with no negative supply capability. Signals must remain within 0V to V+ (e.g., 0V to +5V). For bipolar operation, external level-shifting circuitry or a dual-supply switch like the MAX4532 would be required - the MAX4525EUB is designed exclusively for unipolar, single-supply systems.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad on the MAX4525EUB µMAX package?
The exposed pad on the MAX4525EUB µMAX package is internally connected to V+ and must be soldered to the PCB's V+ copper pour. This connection provides critical thermal dissipation (derating begins at +70°C) and reduces thermal resistance by ~25°C/W versus non-connected pads. It also improves high-frequency grounding for analog signal integrity - omitting this connection risks thermal shutdown or increased on-resistance drift during sustained switching.
How does the INH pin function in the MAX4525EUB?
The INH (Inhibit) pin on the MAX4525EUB is an active-high control that forces all internal switches into the open (off) state regardless of ADDA/ADDB logic states. When pulled high (≥2.4V), it overrides address decoding and disconnects COMA/COMB from all NO/NC paths - enabling system-level signal isolation during power-down, fault recovery, or safety interlocks. Its 1µA max input current minimizes loading on control logic.
