Product details
Overview
MAX4558CEE from Analog Devices is an 8-to-1 CMOS analog multiplexer with ±15kV HBM ESD protection, rail-to-rail signal handling (±6V dual or +12V single supply), 160Ω on-resistance at ±5V, 2Ω typical RON match, and 1nA off-leakage at +25°C - used in battery-powered audio/video routing and low-voltage data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4558CEE datasheet, MAX4558CEE pinout, MAX4558CEE application, or MAX4558CEE equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, truth-table–driven switching behavior, QSOP-16 package details, ESD latchup immunity, and design-critical leakage/flatness/crosstalk data for precision analog signal path selection.
Technical Context
The MAX4558CEE implements a single 8-channel analog multiplexer controlled by three binary address inputs (A/B/C) and an active-low ENABLE pin. Its internal CMOS switch architecture supports bidirectional signal flow with break-before-make timing (4–15ns) and <0.02% THD at 600Ω load.
ESD protection uses on-chip SCRs between X/Y/Z and X_/Y_/Z_ pins and GND, triggering within nanoseconds at ±15kV (HBM), with holding currents of 110mA (+) / 95mA (–) at +25°C - requiring external current limiting below 70mA at +85°C to ensure automatic turn-off after discharge.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Configuration | 8-to-1 multiplexer with common output (X) and eight inputs (X0–X7) |
| Supply Range | ±2V to ±6V dual or +2V to +12V single - enables operation in 3V, 5V, and ±5V systems |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 160Ω max at ±5V - ensures minimal voltage drop and gain error in precision sensor interfaces |
| RON Match | 2Ω typical - critical for matched channel performance in differential or ratiometric measurements |
| Off-Leakage Current | 1nA max at +25°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance, low-current applications like pH sensors |
| ESD Protection | ±15kV HBM, ±12kV IEC air-gap, ±8kV IEC contact - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in portable equipment |
| Crosstalk / Off-Isolation | <−93dB crosstalk, <−96dB off-isolation at 100kHz - maintains signal integrity in multi-channel audio routing |
Pinout & Package
MAX4558CEE is housed in a 16-pin QSOP (Quarter-Size Outline Package) with 0.154" body width and 0.025" lead pitch, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining thermal dissipation up to 640mW at +70°C ambient.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2, 4–5, 12–15 | Analog Inputs X0–X7 | Eight bidirectional analog signal terminals; interchangeable as input or output per signal direction |
| 3 | Analog Output X | Common multiplexer output node; connects to selected X0–X7 channel when ENABLE = low |
| 6 | Digital Enable (ENABLE) | Active-low control: drives all switches open when high; must be tied to GND for normal operation |
| 7 | Negative Supply (VEE) | Analog supply rail; connect to GND for single-supply mode or to negative voltage for dual-rail operation |
| 8 | Ground (GND) | Logic and ESD reference plane; ties SCR cathodes and internal bias networks |
| 9–11 | Digital Address Inputs C, B, A | Binary select lines (C=MSB); define which X0–X7 channel connects to X per truth table |
| 16 | Positive Supply (VCC) | Primary analog/digital supply; powers internal logic translators and switch gates |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail analog signal range | Supports full-swing signals from VEE to VCC - essential for ±5V op-amp interfacing and unipolar 0–5V ADC front-ends |
| Guaranteed RON flatness | ≤8Ω variation over ±3V signal range - minimizes distortion in audio and instrumentation amplifiers |
| Low charge injection | 2.4pC typical - reduces settling error and glitch energy in sample-and-hold and data acquisition circuits |
| TTL/CMOS-compatible logic thresholds | +0.8V to +2.4V inputs at +5V supply - ensures reliable digital control without level-shifting circuitry |
| Break-before-make switching | 4–15ns guaranteed interval - prevents momentary shorting between channels during address transitions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG1408BRUZ | Higher on-resistance (12Ω typ at ±15V), lower ESD rating (±4kV HBM), SOIC-16 package | Designed for high-voltage industrial systems; lacks integrated SCR-based ESD protection | Select when operating above ±10V or requiring higher breakdown voltage; avoid in portable/handheld designs needing ±15kV robustness |
| TS5A23157DGSR | Lower voltage rating (+5.5V max), no dual-supply support, 0.9Ω RON, 1.5pC charge injection | Optimized for 3.3V mobile audio switching; not rated for ±5V or rail-to-rail beyond supply rails | Prefer for ultra-low-distortion 3.3V audio paths; unsuitable for dual-supply or wide-range analog signal routing |
Compared with ADG1408BRUZ and TS5A23157DGSR, MAX4558CEE uniquely combines ±15kV ESD immunity, true rail-to-rail operation down to ±2V supplies, and guaranteed RON matching - making it the only choice for ruggedized, low-voltage, multi-channel analog selection in portable instrumentation.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by the MAX4558CEE?
The MAX4558CEE supports rail-to-rail analog signals from VEE to VCC. With dual ±5V supplies, it handles ±5V signals; with single +5V supply and VEE tied to GND, it passes 0V to +5V. Absolute maximum analog voltage is (VEE − 0.3V) to (VCC + 0.3V), per datasheet limits. This allows direct interfacing with op-amps and ADCs across common industrial and portable supply configurations.
Does the MAX4558CEE require external ESD protection components?
No, the MAX4558CEE does not require external ESD protection components. It integrates on-chip SCRs on all X/Y/Z and X_/Y_/Z_ pins, certified to ±15kV HBM, ±12kV IEC air-gap, and ±8kV IEC contact discharge. These SCRs safely shunt ESD current to GND within nanoseconds, eliminating the need for discrete TVS diodes or RC filters in most end-equipment designs.
How does the ENABLE pin function on the MAX4558CEE?
The ENABLE pin on the MAX4558CEE is active-low. When pulled low (≤0.8V), the device operates normally, allowing address inputs A/B/C to select one of eight analog channels. When driven high (≥2.4V), all internal switches open simultaneously, disconnecting X from X0–X7 regardless of address state - providing hardware-level signal isolation for safety or power-saving modes.
Can the MAX4558CEE operate from a single 3.3V supply?
Yes, the MAX4558CEE operates from a single +3.3V supply. Electrical Characteristics specify guaranteed performance at VCC = +2.7V to +3.6V, with on-resistance ≤450Ω, logic thresholds of +0.5V (low) and +1.5V (high), and leakage ≤10nA at +85°C. This makes it compatible with modern low-voltage microcontrollers and battery-powered IoT sensor nodes.
What is the significance of the "break-before-make" timing in the MAX4558CEE?
The break-before-make timing (tOPEN = 4–15ns) in the MAX4558CEE ensures that one channel fully disconnects before the next connects during address changes. This prevents momentary short-circuits between analog sources - critical in applications like multiplexed sensor arrays where source impedance mismatch could cause measurement corruption or damage to upstream circuitry.
