Product details
Overview
The MAX4534CUD+ from Maxim Integrated is a fault-protected, single 4-to-1 analog multiplexer IC designed for high-voltage signal routing in harsh environments. It operates from ±4.5V to ±20V dual supplies or +9V to +36V single supply, delivers 400Ω max on-resistance with ≤10Ω channel matching, and provides ±40V overvoltage protection with supplies off-enabling safe operation in industrial data-acquisition and avionics signal conditioning systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4534CUD+ datasheet, MAX4534CUD+ pinout, MAX4534CUD+ application, or MAX4534CUD+ equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, fault-protection behavior under rail-exceeding conditions, rail-to-rail signal handling capability, and real-world selection guidance for high-reliability multiplexer replacement.
Technical Context
The MAX4534CUD+ uses parallel N-channel and P-channel FETs per switch path to achieve low on-resistance and true rail-to-rail analog conduction. Its dual-comparator fault-detection circuitry clamps COM output to V+ or V− within ~20ns when NO inputs exceed rails by >150mV-ensuring output integrity during ±25V (supplies on) or ±40V (supplies off) transients.
Fault response is independent of enable or address state: NO pins become high-impedance during overvoltage regardless of switch position, while COM remains actively clamped only when the selected channel is ON. Logic inputs meet TTL/CMOS thresholds across full supply range, eliminating need for level-shifting in +12V or ±15V systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | ±4.5V to ±20V dual or +9V to +36V single - supports legacy industrial rails and modern high-voltage sensor interfaces |
| On-Resistance (max) | 400Ω - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision measurement paths |
| On-Resistance Match | ≤10Ω between channels - critical for matched-gain multiplexing in differential or ratiometric ADC front-ends |
| Fault Protection | ±40V with supplies off, ±25V with ±15V supplies - protects downstream circuitry during power loss or hot-swap events |
| Fault Response Time | 20ns typical - limits transient energy injection into sensitive analog nodes during fast overvoltage events |
| Rail-to-Rail Signal Handling | Full V− to V+ range - enables direct interfacing with sensors or actuators operating beyond logic supply boundaries |
| Logic Compatibility | TTL/CMOS thresholds at +12V or ±15V - eliminates external translators in mixed-supply control systems |
Pinout & Package
MAX4534CUD+ is housed in a 14-pin TSSOP package (4.4mm × 5mm, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for high-density industrial PCB layouts with thermal and EMI robustness.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 A0 | Address Bit 0 | Selects input channel (NO1–NO4) in binary with A1; defines multiplexer routing path |
| 2 EN | Enable Input | Active-high logic control: disables all switches when low, preventing unintended signal coupling |
| 3 V− | Negative Supply | Bias reference for analog path and fault comparators; sets lower rail for rail-to-rail operation |
| 4 NO1 | Channel Input 1 | Fault-protected analog input; withstands ±40V when powered down, ±25V when active |
| 5 NO2 | Channel Input 2 | Identical fault protection and signal-handling capability as NO1–NO4 |
| 7 COM | Analog Output | Common output node; clamped to V+ or V− during NO overvoltage only when channel is ON |
| 11 NO3 | Channel Input 3 | Fault-protected input with same electrical specs and layout constraints as NO1/NO2 |
| 10 NO4 | Channel Input 4 | Final selectable input; shares identical RON, leakage, and fault-response characteristics |
| 14 A1 | Address Bit 1 | MSB of 2-bit address bus; used with A0 to decode 4:1 channel selection |
| 13 GND | Ground Reference | Digital ground for logic interface; isolated from analog signal path but tied to ESD diodes |
| 12 V+ | Positive Supply | Upper rail for analog conduction and fault-clamp sourcing; defines upper limit of signal range |
| 6,8,9 N.C. | No Connection | Unbonded pins; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or mechanical stress |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No power-supply sequencing required | Enables safe hot-plug insertion in modular instrumentation without risk of latch-up or damage |
| All channels off with power off | Prevents back-driving or signal leakage through unpowered device in system-level fault trees |
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports direct connection to ±10V industrial sensors or +24V fieldbus signals without external level shifters |
| Output clamped to supply during fault | Limits COM voltage excursion to safe bounds (V+ or V−), protecting downstream op-amps or ADC inputs |
| 1.0kΩ typical clamp resistance | Ensures predictable current limiting during overvoltage-critical for designing compliant IEC 61000-4-5 surge protection stages |
| 20ns typical fault response time | Minimizes transient energy transfer into measurement circuits, preserving signal integrity in fast-switching DAQ systems |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4534ESD+ | Same silicon, 14-pin narrow SO package; higher thermal resistance (8mW/°C derating vs. 6.3mW/°C for TSSOP) | Better suited for through-hole prototyping or legacy SO footprints; less optimal for thermally constrained SMT layouts | Select MAX4534ESD+ only if board layout requires SO package compatibility or reflow profile excludes fine-pitch TSSOP |
| ADG5412BRUZ | Quad SPST, ±40V fault protection, but 120Ω typical RON; no integrated address decoding or enable logic | Requires external logic for 4:1 function; better for ultra-low-RON needs but adds design complexity and component count | Choose ADG5412BRUZ only when <150Ω RON is mandatory and discrete address logic is acceptable |
Compared with MAX4534ESD+, the MAX4534CUD+ offers superior thermal performance in compact layouts; compared with ADG5412BRUZ, it integrates addressing and reduces total solution size despite higher RON, making it optimal for space-constrained, function-integrated designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage on NO pins of the MAX4534CUD+ when power is off?
The MAX4534CUD+ guarantees ±40V fault protection on NO pins with supplies disconnected. This means NO1–NO4 can safely withstand voltages from −40V to +40V referenced to ground even when V+ and V− are at 0V-critical for maintenance scenarios or power-loss events in field equipment. Exceeding ±40V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the MAX4534CUD+ require power-supply sequencing during startup?
No, the MAX4534CUD+ does not require power-supply sequencing. Its internal architecture allows V+ and V− to be applied in any order, or even simultaneously, without risk of latch-up or parametric shift. This simplifies power-management design in systems with asymmetric supply ramp rates or independent rail controllers.
How does the MAX4534CUD+ behave during an overvoltage event on a selected channel?
When an overvoltage occurs on an enabled NO input (e.g., NO2), the MAX4534CUD+ immediately disables the associated FET pair (N1/P1), isolating NO2 from COM within 20ns. If the channel is ON, COM is actively clamped to V+ (for positive faults) or V− (for negative faults) via booster FETs-limiting output excursion to safe supply rails.
Can the MAX4534CUD+ operate with asymmetrical dual supplies, such as +12V and −5V?
Yes, the MAX4534CUD+ supports asymmetrical dual supplies as long as the absolute difference between V+ and V− does not exceed 44V and each rail stays within its Absolute Maximum Rating (V+ ≤ +44V, V− ≥ −44V). For example, +12V and −5V yields 17V differential-well within spec-and maintains full rail-to-rail signal range from −5V to +12V.
Is the COM pin fault-protected in the MAX4534CUD+?
No, the COM pin of the MAX4534CUD+ is not fault-protected. Voltage applied directly to COM must remain within V− and V+ at all times. Exceeding either rail forward-biases internal ESD diodes, risking damage. Fault protection applies exclusively to NO1–NO4 inputs; COM must be buffered or limited externally in systems with potential output-side overvoltage.
