Product details
Overview
The MAX4592CSE from Maxim Integrated is a quad, single-pole/single-throw (SPST), normally open (NO) analog switch IC operating on a single +12V or +15V supply. It delivers 16Ω max on-resistance, ≤50ns turn-on time, ≤30ns turn-off time, 5pC max charge injection, and 1Ω max on-resistance match between channels-enabling precision signal routing in high-speed test instrumentation and audio switching systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4592CSE datasheet, MAX4592CSE pinout, MAX4592CSE application, or MAX4592CSE equivalent, this device is evaluated for low-leakage, fast-switching analog multiplexing where channel matching, flat RON, and minimal signal distortion are critical in 0°C to +70°C industrial and communications equipment.
Technical Context
The MAX4592CSE implements four independent CMOS SPST switches with logic-controlled NO configuration: each channel connects COM to NO when IN = HIGH (≥5V). Its architecture guarantees monotonic RON flatness (≤1.75Ω over 0–10V signal range) and tight channel-to-channel RON matching (≤1Ω), supporting accurate gain-setting and sample-and-hold fidelity.
It features integrated ESD protection (>2000V per Method 3015.7), operates with no negative supply (V− tied to GND), and maintains sub-nA leakage at +85°C (5nA max COM on-leakage). The device is fully specified for both +12V and +15V single-supply operation without performance degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance (RON) | 16Ω max at +15V supply - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths |
| On-Resistance Match | 1Ω max between channels - enables matched gain/attenuation across multi-channel signal conditioning |
| Turn-On Time (tON) | 50ns max - supports >10MHz switching in high-speed data acquisition and ATE systems |
| Charge Injection | 5pC max - reduces sampling error and pedestal distortion in precision sample-and-hold circuits |
| Off-Leakage Current | 0.1nA max at +25°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces and battery-powered systems |
| Analog Signal Range | 0V to V+ - allows rail-to-rail analog signal switching without clamping or distortion |
| ESD Rating | >2000V per Method 3015.7 - provides robust handling margin during PCB assembly and field operation |
Pinout & Package
MAX4592CSE is housed in a 16-pin narrow SO (Small Outline) package, 3.9mm wide, with standard 1.27mm pitch and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; the package is RoHS-compliant and rated for 0°C to +70°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1–IN4 (Pins 1, 8, 9, 16) | Logic control inputs | CMOS-compatible; drive ≥5V for ON, ≤0.8V for OFF - direct interface with microcontrollers and FPGAs |
| COM1–COM4 (Pins 2, 7, 10, 15) | Analog common terminals | Current-carrying path shared between NO and internal switch - must handle full load current (100mA pulsed) |
| NO1–NO4 (Pins 3, 6, 11, 14) | Normally open analog outputs | Connect to COM only when corresponding IN is HIGH - defines true SPST NO behavior per channel |
| V+ (Pin 13) | Positive supply input | Accepts +12V or +15V; powers all switches and logic - requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor |
| GND (Pin 5) | Ground reference | Return path for supply and logic; must be low-impedance to minimize crosstalk and noise coupling |
| V− (Pin 4) | Negative supply terminal | Internally tied to GND in single-supply mode - not left floating; ensures proper bias for NMOS/PMOS switch pair |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed RON flatness | ≤1.75Ω over full 0–10V signal range - maintains consistent gain/attenuation across input amplitude |
| Low charge injection | 5pC max - minimizes voltage glitch on hold capacitors, enabling <12-bit accuracy in S/H circuits |
| Channel-to-channel RON match | 1Ω max - supports matched differential pairs and calibrated multi-channel ADC front-ends |
| Single-supply operation | +12V or +15V only - eliminates need for dual supplies, simplifying power design in portable and rack-mounted gear |
| ESD robustness | >2000V HBM - withstands handling and board-level transients without latch-up or parametric shift |
Applications
| Test Equipment | Audio Routing Systems |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4592ESE | Same electrical specs but rated for −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range | Suitable for extended-temperature embedded systems and automotive-adjacent test gear | Select MAX4592ESE when operation beyond +70°C ambient is required; otherwise MAX4592CSE suffices for commercial-grade equipment |
| ADG1412BRUZ | Quad SPST, 1.5Ω RON, +15V compatible, but requires dual ±15V or single +12V with level-shifting logic | Better RON and bandwidth, but higher BOM complexity due to supply and logic interface requirements | Choose ADG1412BRUZ only if sub-2Ω RON and 170MHz bandwidth are mandatory; MAX4592CSE offers simpler single-supply integration |
Compared with MAX4592ESE, the MAX4592CSE trades extended temperature capability for lower cost and tighter initial calibration tolerance at room temperature; versus ADG1412BRUZ, it sacrifices ultimate RON and bandwidth for guaranteed single-supply simplicity and proven layout compatibility in legacy test platforms.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the MAX4592CSE?
The MAX4592CSE has an absolute maximum V+ rating of +17V, but it is fully specified and guaranteed for reliable operation at +12V or +15V single-supply conditions. Operation above +15V is not characterized and may compromise RON, leakage, or lifetime reliability. Always observe the recommended operating range of +12V to +15V for the MAX4592CSE to ensure compliance with datasheet performance metrics.
Does the MAX4592CSE require a negative supply voltage?
No, the MAX4592CSE does not require a negative supply. Its V− pin is internally referenced to GND in single-supply mode and must be connected to ground - not left floating. This allows full rail-to-rail analog signal switching (0V to V+) using only a positive supply, simplifying power design compared to dual-supply analog switches. The MAX4592CSE is explicitly designed for +12V or +15V single-rail operation.
Can the MAX4592CSE be used in audio applications without audible switching artifacts?
Yes, the MAX4592CSE is well-suited for professional audio routing due to its 5pC max charge injection and low RON flatness (≤1.75Ω), which suppress voltage glitches and amplitude modulation during switching. When paired with appropriate RC filtering and driven by clean logic edges, the MAX4592CSE enables silent, pop-free channel selection - verified in audio mixer reference designs where signal integrity below −90dB THD+N is required.
What is the guaranteed on-resistance match between channels for the MAX4592CSE?
The MAX4592CSE guarantees ≤1Ω maximum on-resistance (RON) match between any two channels at +25°C and +12V supply, with typical matching of 0.5Ω. This specification holds across the full operating temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and ensures consistent gain scaling, balanced differential signaling, and accurate multi-channel calibration - critical in precision instrumentation and automated test systems using the MAX4592CSE.
Is the MAX4592CSE pin-compatible with older industry-standard analog switches?
Yes, the MAX4592CSE is explicitly pin-compatible with the DG611, DG612, DG613, DG211, DG212, and DG213 families in the 16-pin narrow SO package. This allows drop-in replacement without PCB redesign, preserving existing layouts while upgrading to faster switching (50ns vs. 100ns), lower leakage (0.1nA vs. 1nA), and improved RON flatness. The MAX4592CSE maintains identical pin functions and mechanical footprint as those legacy devices.
