Product details
Overview
MAX4558ESE 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, 1nA off-leakage at +25°C, and TTL/CMOS-compatible digital inputs-used in battery-powered audio routing and low-voltage data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4558ESE datasheet, MAX4558ESE pinout, MAX4558ESE application, or MAX4558ESE equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed RON matching (2Ω typ), high off-isolation (–96dB @ 50Ω), low charge injection (2.4pC), and compatibility with 74HC4051-based designs requiring enhanced ESD robustness.
Technical Context
The MAX4558ESE implements a single 8-channel analog multiplexer with address decoding (A/B/C) and active-low ENABLE control. Its internal CMOS switch architecture supports bidirectional signal flow and operates across dual supplies (±2V to ±6V) or single supplies (+2V to +12V), maintaining rail-to-rail analog swing without distortion.
ESD protection uses on-chip SCRs between X/Y/Z and X_/Y_/Z_ pins and GND, triggering within nanoseconds during ±15kV HBM events. SCR holding current is 110mA (positive) / 95mA (negative) at +25°C, dropping to 70mA / 65mA at +85°C-requiring external current limiting below 35mA to ensure automatic turn-off post-event.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Configuration | 8-to-1 analog multiplexer with 3-bit address decoding (A/B/C) and active-low ENABLE |
| Supply Range | ±2V to ±6V dual or +2V to +12V single-supports rail-to-rail analog signals across full range |
| On-Resistance | 160Ω max at ±5V (guaranteed); enables <1% gain error in 10kΩ source/load impedance applications |
| Off-Leakage Current | 2nA max at +85°C-preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor front-ends |
| ESD Protection | ±15kV HBM, ±12kV IEC 1000-4-2 air-gap, ±8kV contact-no external protection required in harsh environments |
| Switching Speed | tON = 150ns max, tOFF = 120ns max (RL = 300Ω, CL = 35pF)-suitable for 5MHz multiplexed signal paths |
| Channel Isolation | –96dB off-isolation @ 100kHz (50Ω)-prevents crosstalk in multi-channel audio/video routing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4558CSE | Same die, 0°C to +70°C temperature range; 16-pin narrow SO package identical to MAX4558ESE | Not rated for extended industrial temperature operation (–40°C to +85°C) | Select MAX4558CSE only for commercial-temperature applications where cost is prioritized over thermal margin. |
| 74HC4051D | No integrated ESD protection; 120Ω RON at +5V; no SCR latch-up mitigation circuitry | Requires external ESD protection and current-limiting design for robust operation in field-deployed systems | Choose 74HC4051D only in benign lab environments with controlled handling and well-decoupled supplies. |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4558ESE?
The MAX4558ESE supports dual supplies from ±2V to ±6V or a single supply from +2V to +12V. Absolute maximum ratings specify VCC up to +13V and VEE down to –13V relative to GND, but continuous operation beyond ±6V or +12V is not recommended per datasheet specifications. The MAX4558ESE must never be operated outside these validated ranges to ensure reliability and parameter guarantees.
Does MAX4558ESE support bidirectional analog signal flow?
Yes, the MAX4558ESE supports fully bidirectional analog signal flow-its X0–X7 inputs and X output are electrically symmetric and interchangeable. Signals pass equally well from X to any Xn or from Xn to X, with identical on-resistance, leakage, and bandwidth in both directions. This makes the MAX4558ESE suitable for applications like analog bus switching or reconfigurable filter networks where signal direction varies dynamically.
How does the ESD protection in MAX4558ESE differ from standard diode clamps?
The MAX4558ESE uses on-chip SCRs between protected pins (X/Y/Z and X_/Y_/Z_) and GND, triggering in nanoseconds during ESD events to shunt current safely to ground. Unlike diode clamps tied to VCC/VEE, this method avoids injecting surge current into shared supply rails-preventing voltage spikes that could disrupt other ICs. The MAX4558ESE's SCR-based protection is validated to ±15kV HBM and requires external current limiting below 35mA to ensure automatic turn-off after discharge.
Can MAX4558ESE operate with a +3.3V single supply?
Yes, the MAX4558ESE is fully specified for +3.3V single-supply operation. At VCC = +3.3V, typical on-resistance is 220Ω, input logic thresholds are 0.5V (low) and 1.5V (high), and leakage remains ≤10nA at +85°C. The device maintains rail-to-rail analog capability from 0V to +3.3V, making the MAX4558ESE compatible with modern low-voltage microcontroller interfaces and portable systems powered by 3.3V LDOs.
Is MAX4558ESE pin-compatible with industry-standard 74HC4051 devices?
Yes, the MAX4558ESE is pin-compatible with the 74HC4051 in the same 16-pin narrow SO package, sharing identical pin assignments for VCC, GND, ENABLE, A/B/C address inputs, X output, and X0–X7 inputs. This allows direct replacement in existing 74HC4051 layouts without PCB changes-while adding ±15kV ESD protection, lower leakage, and guaranteed RON matching not found in standard logic-family switches.
