Product details
Overview
MAX4553EEE+ from Maxim Integrated is a quad, low-voltage, SPST analog switch with two normally closed (NC) and two normally open (NO) channels, ±15kV IEC 1000-4-2 ESD protection on NC/NO pins, 100Ω max on-resistance at ±5V supplies, rail-to-rail analog signal handling, and -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. It enables robust signal routing in portable test equipment and avionics interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4553EEE+ datasheet, MAX4553EEE+ pinout, MAX4553EEE+ application, or MAX4553EEE+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, truth-table–validated switching behavior, package-specific thermal derating, ESD latch-up immunity data, and real-world leakage vs. temperature curves - all confirmed for the QSOP-16 industrial-grade variant.
Technical Context
The MAX4553EEE+ implements four independent CMOS SPST switches using complementary N- and P-channel MOSFETs per channel, driven by logic-level translators that convert TTL/CMOS inputs into full-rail V+ and V− gate drive signals. Its internal SCR-based ESD protection activates within nanoseconds during ±15kV contact discharge events on NC/NO pins, shunting surge current to GND while limiting supply injection via series resistors.
Switch operation supports dual supplies (±2V to ±6V) or single supply (+2V to +12V), with logic thresholds fixed at +0.8V/+2.4V for compatibility across ±5V and +5V systems. The break-before-make timing (5–30ns) is explicitly characterized only for the MAX4553 variant and ensures no transient shorting between NC and NO paths during state transitions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (RON) | 100Ω max at ±5V supplies - ensures minimal signal attenuation in precision DC/low-frequency routing. |
| On-resistance match (∆RON) | 4Ω max between channels - critical for matched gain or phase in multi-path signal conditioning. |
| On-resistance flatness | 8Ω max over full signal range - maintains consistent insertion loss across rail-to-rail analog inputs. |
| COM off-leakage current | 10nA max at +85°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor front-ends and sample-hold circuits. |
| ESD protection | ±15kV per IEC 1000-4-2 on NC/NO pins - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in handheld or field-deployable gear. |
| Supply range | +2V to +12V single or ±2V to ±6V dual - supports battery-powered (2.7V) and industrial (+12V) rails without level-shifting. |
| Logic compatibility | TTL/CMOS thresholds (+0.8V low / +2.4V high) at +5V - interoperates directly with microcontroller GPIO and FPGA I/O banks. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4553EEE+ is housed in a 16-pin QSOP (Quarter-Size Outline Package) with 0.025" lead pitch, 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, and -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating. Thermal derating is 9.52mW/°C above +70°C (762mW max at +70°C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8, 9, 16 | IN1–IN4 | Digital control inputs; active-high logic drives corresponding switch state (NO/NC). |
| 2, 7, 10, 15 | COM1–COM4 | Analog common terminals; bidirectional signal path shared between NC and NO sides. |
| 3, 6, 11, 14 | NC1–NC4 / NO1–NO4 | MAX4553-specific: Pins 3 & 6 = NC2 & NC3; Pins 11 & 14 = NO1 & NO4 - defines mixed NO/NC topology. |
| 4 | V− | Negative supply input; connect to GND for single-supply operation; sets lower analog voltage limit. |
| 5 | GND | Digital ground reference; SCR ESD return path; must be low-impedance plane for surge dissipation. |
| 12 | N.C. | No internal connection - leave unconnected; not a test pad or thermal pad. |
| 13 | V+ | Positive supply for analog switches and logic core; internally tied to substrate; bypass with 100nF to GND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail analog signal handling | Supports signals from V− to V+ without clipping - essential for full-scale audio, sensor, and DAC output routing. |
| Break-before-make timing | 5–30ns guaranteed delay between NC deactivation and NO activation - prevents momentary shorts in mixed-configuration switching. |
| Low power consumption | <1µW quiescent supply current - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and handheld testers. |
| Pin-compatible replacement | Direct drop-in for industry-standard DG211/DG212/DG213 - enables legacy design upgrades without PCB rework. |
| SCR-based ESD protection | ±15kV IEC 1000-4-2 on NC/NO pins with sub-10ns turn-on - avoids supply rail disturbance seen with diode-clamp solutions. |
Applications
| Portable Test Equipment | Avionics Signal Routing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4553ESE+ | Same electrical specs and pinout; packaged in 16-pin narrow SO instead of QSOP - 1.5mm wider body, 1.27mm lead pitch. | Preferred for wave-soldered industrial boards where QSOP reflow yield is challenging; same thermal profile but higher mounting height. | Select MAX4553ESE+ when board assembly uses traditional through-hole or SOIC-compatible reflow profiles. |
| ADG1412BRUZ | Quad SPST, ±15V supply capable, 1.8Ω RON, but only ±8kV ESD rating; 16-pin TSSOP, non-pin-compatible pinout. | Suitable for higher-voltage industrial automation, but requires PCB layout change and adds external ESD protection for IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 compliance. | Choose ADG1412BRUZ only if <2Ω RON and ±15V operation outweigh ESD redesign effort and footprint change. |
Compared with MAX4553ESE+, the MAX4553EEE+ offers identical performance in a space-constrained QSOP package ideal for portable gear; versus ADG1412BRUZ, it delivers certified ±15kV ESD robustness without layout or protection circuit changes - critical for field-deployable test and avionics systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable V+ to V− differential voltage for MAX4553EEE+?
The absolute maximum V+ to V− differential voltage for MAX4553EEE+ is 13.0V. Exceeding this - even momentarily due to supply overshoot or noise - risks permanent damage. At ±5V nominal (±10% tolerance), the worst-case differential is 13.2V, so designers must verify supply regulation and use clamping or sequencing controls to stay within spec.
Does MAX4553EEE+ require external ESD protection when used in IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 compliant systems?
No, MAX4553EEE+ does not require external ESD protection on its NC and NO pins for IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 compliance. Its on-chip SCR structure provides ±15kV contact discharge protection per IEC 1000-4-2, enabling system-level certification without added components - confirmed in Maxim's reliability report 19-1391.
How does the break-before-make timing work in MAX4553EEE+ and why is it specified only for this variant?
MAX4553EEE+ guarantees 5–30ns break-before-make delay between NC deactivation and NO activation on pins 11/14 (NO1/NO4) and 3/6 (NC2/NC3). This timing is unique to the MAX4553 because only its mixed NO/NC architecture requires controlled channel isolation - MAX4551 (all NC) and MAX4552 (all NO) have no such transition risk.
Can MAX4553EEE+ operate reliably from a +3.3V single supply?
Yes, MAX4553EEE+ is fully specified for +2.7V to +3.6V single-supply operation. At +3.3V, typical on-resistance is 500Ω, logic thresholds are +0.5V (low) and +2.0V (high), and turn-on time is 190–400ns - all validated across -40°C to +85°C per Electrical Characteristics Table on page 5 of the datasheet.
What is the purpose of the N.C. pin (pin 12) on MAX4553EEE+ and how should it be handled on the PCB?
Pin 12 on MAX4553EEE+ is a true no-connect terminal - it has no internal bond wire or silicon connection. It must be left floating (unrouted and unconnected) on the PCB. Soldering or tying it to GND/V+/V− introduces parasitic coupling and violates Maxim's layout guidance in the Applications Information section (page 8).
