Product details
Overview
The MAX4592CPE from Maxim Integrated is a high-speed, quad, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch with normally open (NO) configuration, designed for +12V or +15V single-supply operation. It delivers 16Ω max on-resistance, ≤50ns turn-on time, ≤30ns turn-off time, 5pC max charge injection, and 100pA max leakage at +25°C - enabling precision signal routing in test equipment and audio/video switching systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4592CPE datasheet, MAX4592CPE pinout, MAX4592CPE application, or MAX4592CPE equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 1Ω max RON match between channels, 1.75Ω max RON flatness over signal range, ESD >2000V per Method 3015.7, and pin compatibility with DG611/DG612/DG613 and DG211/DG212/DG213.
Technical Context
This device implements CMOS-based SPST switching architecture with logic-controlled gate drive, supporting rail-to-rail analog signal handling from V− to V+ (0V to +12V or +15V). Its low charge injection (≤5pC) and tight RON matching (≤1Ω) ensure minimal signal distortion in sample-and-hold and multiplexing topologies.
Designed for single-supply industrial and communications systems, it guarantees performance across 0°C to +70°C ambient temperature, with <5nA COM on-leakage at +85°C and break-before-make timing (5–20ns) only applicable to the MAX4593 variant - not present in MAX4592CPE.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance (RON) | 16Ω max at +12V supply - ensures minimal voltage drop and power loss in signal paths up to ±10mA load. |
| On-Resistance Match | 1Ω max between channels - enables precise gain/offset matching in multi-channel instrumentation and AFEs. |
| Turn-On / Turn-Off Time | tON ≤50ns, tOFF ≤30ns - supports high-speed multiplexing in data acquisition and real-time control loops. |
| Charge Injection | 5pC max - limits voltage glitch amplitude in sample-and-hold circuits with 1nF hold capacitors. |
| Analog Signal Range | VCOM/VNO = 0V to V+ - allows full-rail input/output swing without clamping when V− = GND. |
| ESD Protection | >2000V per Method 3015.7 - provides robust handling during board assembly and system integration. |
| Leakage Current | 100pA max NO/NC off-leakage at +25°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4592CPE uses a 16-pin plastic DIP package (0.3-inch width), suitable for through-hole prototyping and industrial PCBs requiring mechanical robustness and thermal stability up to +70°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1–IN4 (Pins 1, 8, 9, 16) | Logic control inputs | Accept TTL/CMOS-compatible levels (≤0.8V for OFF, ≥5V for ON); drive internal switch gates. |
| COM1–COM4 (Pins 2, 7, 10, 15) | Analog common terminals | Signal path center points; connect to source/load in SPST configuration. |
| NO1–NO4 (Pins 3, 6, 11, 14) | Normally open analog outputs | Open-circuit when INx = 0; connect to COMx only when INx = 1 - defines NO topology. |
| V+ (Pin 13) | Positive supply | +12V or +15V analog/digital rail; powers switch core and logic interface. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Ground reference | Return path for logic and analog signals; must be low-impedance for noise control. |
| V− (Pin 4) | Negative supply | Internally tied to GND in single-supply mode; required for absolute max rating compliance. |
| N.C. (Pin 12) | No connection | Not internally bonded; leave unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad SPST NO topology | Four independent switches with isolated NO/COM paths - eliminates crosstalk in parallel signal routing. |
| Guaranteed RON flatness | 1.75Ω max variation over 0–10V signal range - maintains consistent gain in variable-amplitude applications. |
| Low-temperature leakage | 5nA max COM on-leakage at +85°C - sustains accuracy in extended-temperature industrial environments. |
| Pin compatibility | Direct replacement for DG611/DG612/DG613 and DG211/DG212/DG213 - enables legacy design upgrades without layout change. |
| Single-supply flexibility | Operates from +12V or +15V with no dual-rail requirement - simplifies power architecture in embedded systems. |
Applications
| Test Equipment | Audio and Video Switching |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4592CSE | Same electrical specs, but in 16-pin narrow SO package - 5.3mm width vs. DIP's 7.62mm. | Suitable for space-constrained PCBs; requires reflow soldering instead of through-hole mounting. | Select MAX4592CSE for automated SMT production; choose MAX4592CPE for hand-soldered prototypes or ruggedized designs. |
| DG612DN | Higher RON (35Ω typ), slower switching (tON = 120ns), no guaranteed RON match or flatness spec. | Limited to non-critical signal routing where precision matching is unnecessary. | Use DG612DN only if cost is primary constraint and 16Ω RON / 50ns speed are not required. |
Compared with MAX4592CSE and DG612DN, the MAX4592CPE uniquely combines DIP-mounting robustness, guaranteed 1Ω RON matching, and 50ns switching - making it optimal for lab-grade test fixtures and military-grade analog subsystems where mechanical reliability and parameter consistency are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4592CPE?
The MAX4592CPE has an absolute maximum V+ rating of +17V, but it is fully specified for reliable operation at +12V or +15V single-supply conditions. Operation beyond +15V voids guaranteed parameters including RON, leakage, and switching speed - always observe the +12V/+15V recommended operating range for MAX4592CPE in production designs.
Does MAX4592CPE support dual-supply operation?
No, MAX4592CPE is designed exclusively for single-supply operation with V− tied to GND. For true dual-supply analog switching (e.g., ±5V), refer to the MAX391 data sheet - MAX4592CPE does not guarantee performance or safe operation with negative V− voltages.
What is the guaranteed on-resistance flatness specification for MAX4592CPE?
The MAX4592CPE guarantees ≤1.75Ω on-resistance flatness over the full analog signal range (0V to V+) when operated at +12V supply and +25°C. This value represents the peak-to-peak variation in RON as VCOM sweeps from 0V to 10V - critical for maintaining linearity in variable-gain amplifier paths.
Is MAX4592CPE pin-compatible with DG212?
Yes, MAX4592CPE is explicitly documented as pin-compatible with DG212 (and DG211/DG213). Pin functions, numbering, and physical layout match exactly - allowing direct substitution in existing DG212-based designs without PCB modification, though electrical performance (e.g., RON, speed) improves significantly with MAX4592CPE.
What is the maximum allowable leakage current for MAX4592CPE at +85°C?
At +85°C, the MAX4592CPE guarantees ≤5nA COM on-leakage current (ICOM(ON)) and ≤5nA NO/NC off-leakage (INO(OFF)/INC(OFF)). These values are 100% tested at hot temperature and correlated to room-temperature specs - essential for high-impedance sensor front-ends operating in extended-temperature environments.
