Product details
Overview
MAX4593EUE from Maxim Integrated is a high-speed, quad SPST analog switch with two normally open (NO) and two normally closed (NC) channels, 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 guaranteed 1Ω max RON match between channels - enabling precision signal routing in test equipment and guidance systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4593EUE datasheet, MAX4593EUE pinout, MAX4593EUE application, or MAX4593EUE equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, thermal performance across -40°C to +85°C, package-specific layout guidance for TSSOP-16, and validated alternatives for dual-mode switching designs requiring low leakage and fast break-before-make timing.
Technical Context
The MAX4593EUE implements CMOS-based SPST switch architecture with independent logic-controlled NO/NC pairs per channel, supporting simultaneous bidirectional analog signal routing. Its internal charge-pump-free design ensures stable RON flatness (≤1.75Ω over 0–10V signal range) and minimal temperature drift - critical for sample-and-hold circuits operating at full industrial temperature range.
Break-before-make timing is explicitly specified (5–20ns) only for the MAX4593 variant, confirming intentional channel isolation during state transitions. ESD protection exceeds 2000V per Method 3015.7, and leakage remains ≤5nA at +85°C - validating suitability for high-impedance military radio front-ends and tape drive head selection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (RON) | 16Ω max at +15V supply - ensures minimal signal attenuation in 50Ω/75Ω video/audio paths |
| Turn-on time (tON) | 50ns max - enables sub-20MHz multiplexing without pulse distortion in test instrumentation |
| Charge injection | 5pC max - preserves DC accuracy in precision sample-and-hold and ADC input conditioning |
| RON match | 1Ω max between channels - supports matched gain paths in differential signal routing |
| Off-leakage current | 0.1nA max at +85°C - maintains integrity of high-Z sensor interfaces and guidance system feedback loops |
| Supply range | +12V or +15V single supply - eliminates need for dual-rail supplies in legacy military avionics |
| ESD rating | >2000V per Method 3015.7 - withstands handling and board-level transients in field-deployed comms gear |
Pinout & Package
MAX4593EUE is housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package (5.0mm × 4.4mm × 1.1mm), optimized for high-density PCB layouts in compact test and aerospace modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4 | Logic control inputs | Drive ≥5V for logic high; ≤0.8V for logic low - directly compatible with TTL/CMOS outputs without level shifting |
| COM1–COM4 | Analog common terminals | Bidirectional signal path endpoints - connect to source/load nodes in multiplexer or relay-replacement topologies |
| NO1, NO2, NC3, NC4 | Normally open/normally closed switch terminals | MAX4593-specific pairing: pins 3/14 = NO; pins 11/6 = NC - enables mixed-path routing in single-package fault-tolerant designs |
| V+ | Positive supply rail | Accepts +12V or +15V - powers internal switch array and logic interface; must be sequenced before logic inputs |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for analog and digital sections - requires low-impedance connection to minimize crosstalk in mixed-signal systems |
| N.C. | No connection | Pin 12 is unconnected - must remain floating; no pull-up/down or routing required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Two NO + two NC configuration | Enables fail-safe signal path selection in guidance systems - e.g., default NC path maintains critical control loop during power loss |
| Guaranteed RON flatness ≤1.75Ω | Maintains amplitude consistency across full 0–10V analog input range - essential for linear video switching and DAC output buffering |
| Break-before-make interval (5–20ns) | Prevents momentary short-circuit between NO/NC paths during transition - protects sensitive downstream amplifiers in audio routing |
| 5pC max charge injection | Reduces settling error to <1LSB in 16-bit data acquisition systems using external sample-and-hold capacitors ≥1nF |
| Pin compatibility with DG611/DG612/DG613 | Allows drop-in replacement in legacy designs using Vishay/Supertex switches - no PCB rework needed for reliability upgrades |
Applications
| Test Equipment | Sample-and-Hold Circuits |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4592EUE | Four NO-only channels; identical RON, speed, and leakage specs | Lacks NC functionality - unsuitable for fail-safe or default-path designs requiring automatic continuity on power loss | Select when all paths require active logic control and no default conduction state is needed |
| ADG453BRUZ | Quad SPST, +12V-rated, but 24Ω RON max and 10pC charge injection | Higher on-resistance increases insertion loss in 75Ω video lines; higher charge injection degrades 16-bit S/H accuracy | Choose only if pinout compatibility with ADI-based legacy boards outweighs precision requirements |
Compared with MAX4592EUE and ADG453BRUZ, the MAX4593EUE uniquely combines dual NO/NC topology with 5pC charge injection and 16Ω RON, making it the only option among the three that supports both fault-tolerant routing and high-fidelity signal acquisition in a single package.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the MAX4593EUE?
The MAX4593EUE is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed by its "E" grade suffix and electrical specifications tested across this full industrial temperature range. At +85°C, key parameters including on-resistance match (≤1Ω), off-leakage (≤5nA), and switching times remain within guaranteed limits - ensuring reliability in avionics and ruggedized communications hardware where thermal stress is routine.
Does the MAX4593EUE support dual-supply operation?
No, the MAX4593EUE is specified exclusively for single +12V or +15V supply operation, with V- tied to GND. The datasheet explicitly states that low-voltage or dual-supply variants should refer to the MAX391 - meaning the MAX4593EUE lacks internal level-shifting circuitry for split-rail use. Attempting to apply negative voltage to V- violates absolute maximum ratings and risks permanent damage.
How does the MAX4593EUE's break-before-make timing affect system design?
The MAX4593EUE guarantees a 5–20ns break-before-make interval specifically for its NO/NC channel pairs, preventing momentary shorts during logic transitions. This eliminates the need for external blanking logic in audio/video routing or RF path switching, simplifying PCB layout and reducing propagation delay - unlike the MAX4591/MAX4592 which lack this specification entirely.
Is the MAX4593EUE pin-compatible with older industry-standard analog switches?
Yes, the MAX4593EUE is pin-compatible with the DG611/DG612/DG613 and DG211/DG212/DG213 families in TSSOP-16, SO-16, and PDIP-16 packages. This allows direct replacement in legacy designs without PCB modification, while delivering improved specs: lower RON (16Ω vs. 25Ω), faster switching (50ns vs. 100ns), and enhanced ESD robustness (>2000V vs. 1000V).
What is the significance of the 'EUE' suffix in MAX4593EUE?
The 'EUE' suffix denotes a 16-pin TSSOP package ('U') with extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C, 'E') and lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction ('E'). This distinguishes it from 'CUE' (commercial 0°C to +70°C) and 'ESE' (SO-16 package). The TSSOP footprint enables high-density placement in space-constrained military and test equipment enclosures.
