Product details
Overview
MAX4581CSE+TG104 from Maxim Integrated is an 8-channel CMOS analog multiplexer configured for rail-to-rail signal routing in low-voltage systems. It operates from ±2V to ±6V dual supplies or +2V to +12V single supply, delivers 80Ω on-resistance at ±5V, guarantees <1nA off-leakage at +25°C, and supports TTL/CMOS logic compatibility - ideal for battery-powered audio/video signal switching and low-voltage data-acquisition front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4581CSE+TG104 datasheet, MAX4581CSE+TG104 pinout, MAX4581CSE+TG104 application, or MAX4581CSE+TG104 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance matching (±10Ω), break-before-make timing (4–20ns), low crosstalk (<−96dB @50Ω), high off-isolation (<−74dB), and compatibility with industry-standard 74HC4051 pinout and logic diagrams.
Technical Context
The MAX4581CSE+TG104 implements a single 8:1 analog multiplexer using BICMOS process technology, with address decoding via three digital inputs (A, B, C) and an active-low ENABLE control. Its internal switch architecture uses complementary CMOS transistors biased by VCC and VEE to support bidirectional rail-to-rail analog conduction without ground reference.
Logic-level translation circuitry ensures TTL/CMOS compatibility across supply ranges: input thresholds scale with VCC (e.g., 0.8V–2.4V at +5V; ~1.0V–3.1V at +12V), while ESD protection diodes clamp analog pins to VCC/VEE - requiring proper power sequencing (VCC first, then VEE, then signals) to avoid leakage or damage.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4051ACPE+ | Same 8:1 configuration, but higher on-resistance (100Ω @ ±5V) and wider temp range (−40°C to +85°C); no AEC-Q100 variant | Lower bandwidth and higher distortion - less suitable for audio; better for general-purpose industrial muxing where leakage & matching are secondary | Select MAX4051ACPE+ if extended temperature range is required and 20Ω higher RON is acceptable |
| ADG708BRUZ | 8:1 CMOS mux with lower on-resistance (4.5Ω @ +5V), but narrower supply range (+1.8V to +5.5V); no dual-supply capability | Superior performance in low-voltage, high-speed digital systems; incompatible with bipolar or >5.5V rails | Choose ADG708BRUZ for battery-powered 3.3V systems demanding ultra-low RON and fast switching - not for ±5V or 12V operation |
Compared with MAX4051ACPE+, MAX4581CSE+TG104 offers tighter on-resistance matching and lower leakage, making it preferable for precision acquisition; versus ADG708BRUZ, it trades RON for broader supply flexibility and bipolar operation - critical for mixed-signal test equipment and legacy industrial designs.

FAQ
What supply voltages does the MAX4581CSE+TG104 support?
The MAX4581CSE+TG104 supports dual supplies from ±2V to ±6V or a single supply from +2V to +12V. When using single supply, VEE must be connected to GND. Operation at +2V is functional but increases on-resistance and switching times; typical use cases employ +5V or ±5V for optimal RON and speed.
Is the MAX4581CSE+TG104 pin-compatible with the 74HC4051?
Yes, the MAX4581CSE+TG104 is fully pin-compatible and functionally identical to the 74HC4051, including matching pinout, truth table, and logic diagram per RCA CD4051 specifications. This allows direct drop-in replacement in existing designs without layout changes or firmware updates.
What is the maximum off-isolation and crosstalk performance of the MAX4581CSE+TG104?
The MAX4581CSE+TG104 delivers off-isolation of <−74dB and crosstalk of <−96dB at 1MHz into 50Ω loads. These values are measured per standard test configurations (Figure 6 in datasheet) and reflect worst-case channel-to-channel coupling - critical for maintaining signal fidelity in multi-channel data acquisition.
Does the MAX4581CSE+TG104 require external protection diodes for overvoltage?
No - the MAX4581CSE+TG104 integrates reverse-biased ESD protection diodes between each analog pin and VCC/VEE. However, proper power sequencing (VCC first, then VEE, then signals) is mandatory. External diodes are only recommended if analog signals may exceed VCC or VEE beyond absolute maximum ratings - which would risk permanent damage regardless of protection.
How does temperature affect on-resistance and leakage in the MAX4581CSE+TG104?
On-resistance increases with temperature - e.g., RON rises from ~80Ω at +25°C to ~110Ω at +85°C (per Figure toc04). Off-leakage grows exponentially: from 1nA at +25°C to 5nA at +85°C (guaranteed per datasheet Note 5). These variations are characterized and tested - design margins must account for worst-case RON and leakage at max operating temperature.
