Product details
Overview
MAX4615ESD from Analog Devices is a quad, high-speed, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) CMOS analog switch with normally closed (NC) configuration, designed for low-voltage signal routing in precision analog paths. It delivers 10Ω max on-resistance at +5V, 1Ω max channel-to-channel match, and rail-to-rail signal handling from GND to V+, supporting battery-powered audio/video systems and low-voltage data acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4615ESD datasheet, MAX4615ESD pinout, MAX4615ESD application, or MAX4615ESD equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance flatness (≤1Ω), sub-12ns switching times, <6nA off-leakage at +85°C, TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, and -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature operation.
Technical Context
The MAX4615ESD implements four independent NC SPST switches using matched CMOS transmission-gate architecture, enabling bidirectional analog signal flow with minimal distortion. Its logic inputs accept 0.8V/2.4V thresholds for robust TTL/CMOS interfacing across +2V to +5.5V supply operation.
Each switch supports rail-to-rail analog signals (GND to V+), exhibits ≤1Ω on-resistance variation over its full signal range, and maintains ≤1Ω matching between channels-critical for multi-channel instrumentation and sampling systems where gain/phase tracking matters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2V to +5.5V - enables direct integration into 3.3V and 5V systems without level-shifting |
| On-Resistance (max) | 10Ω at +5V - ensures minimal voltage drop and signal attenuation in precision sensor or audio paths |
| On-Resistance Match | 1Ω max between channels - preserves amplitude consistency across multiple switched signals |
| Turn-On / Turn-Off Time | 12ns / 10ns - supports high-speed multiplexing up to ~70MHz bandwidth without timing skew |
| Off-Leakage Current | 6nA at +85°C - prevents DC error accumulation in high-impedance sample-and-hold or sensor front-ends |
| Analog Signal Range | GND to V+ - allows full-scale signal routing without clipping in single-supply systems |
| Logic Thresholds | VIN_L = 0.8V, VIN_H = 2.4V - guarantees reliable switching with standard 5V TTL and CMOS drivers |
Pinout & Package
MAX4615ESD is housed in a 14-pin narrow SO (SOIC-N) package, measuring 3.9mm × 8.7mm with 1.27mm pitch, optimized for space-constrained industrial PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 8, 11 | NC1–NC4 | Normally closed analog terminals - conduct when control input is LOW; bidirectional signal path |
| 2, 4, 9, 10 | COM1–COM4 | Common analog terminals - connect to signal source/load; shared node for each NC switch |
| 5, 6, 12, 13 | IN1–IN4 | Digital control inputs - active-low logic controls NC state; compatible with 0.8V/2.4V thresholds |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must be low-impedance for leakage and THD performance |
| 14 | V+ | Positive supply - powers analog core and logic; supports 2V–5.5V operation with rail-to-rail signal swing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-Rail® Signal Handling | Supports analog signals from GND to V+ without clamping or distortion - eliminates need for external biasing in single-supply designs |
| Guaranteed On-Resistance Flatness | ≤1Ω variation over full signal range - ensures linear gain response in variable-gain amplifiers or programmable filters |
| Low Charge Injection (6.5pC) | Minimizes voltage glitch on sampled nodes - critical for high-resolution ADC front-ends and precision hold circuits |
| High Off-Isolation (-85dB @ 100kHz) | Prevents crosstalk between inactive channels - essential for multi-signal routing in test equipment and ATE systems |
| TTL/CMOS Logic Compatibility | 0.8V/2.4V thresholds ensure interoperability with microcontrollers and FPGAs without external level shifters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4615EUD | Same electrical specs but in 14-pin TSSOP (3.1mm × 5.1mm); 0.65mm pitch | Better thermal dissipation (6.3mW/°C derating vs. 8.0mW/°C) and smaller footprint | Select for higher-density layouts or improved thermal performance in compact enclosures |
| ADG1415BRUZ | Higher on-resistance (1.5Ω typ), wider supply (±15V dual or +3V to +16.5V single), 16-pin TSSOP | Supports bipolar signal ranges and higher voltage rails; not rail-to-rail at low V+ | Select when ±12V operation or lower RON at high V+ is required; not drop-in for MAX4615ESD's 14-pin SO layout |
Compared with MAX4615ESD, MAX4615EUD offers identical functionality in a smaller package with better thermal metrics, while ADG1415BRUZ trades low-voltage efficiency for broader voltage capability and lower RON at higher supplies-making it suitable for mixed-signal systems requiring extended dynamic range.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the MAX4615ESD?
The MAX4615ESD is rated for continuous operation from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for industrial environments and outdoor electronics where ambient temperatures fluctuate widely. This extended range is confirmed by full characterization of on-resistance, leakage, and switching times across the entire span, unlike commercial-grade variants limited to 0°C to +70°C.
Does the MAX4615ESD support rail-to-rail analog signal switching?
Yes, the MAX4615ESD supports rail-to-rail analog signal switching from GND to V+, meaning it can pass signals that swing fully between the device's ground and positive supply rails without clipping or distortion. This capability is enabled by its CMOS transmission-gate design and is guaranteed across the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
How does the on-resistance matching specification benefit system design?
The MAX4615ESD guarantees ≤1Ω maximum difference in on-resistance between any two channels at +25°C, and ≤1.2Ω over temperature. This tight matching ensures consistent gain, phase, and settling behavior across all four switches-critical for applications like multi-channel data acquisition where channel-to-channel calibration errors must be minimized without per-channel trimming.
Can the MAX4615ESD be used with a 3.3V supply?
Yes, the MAX4615ESD operates reliably from +2V to +5.5V, including standard 3.3V systems. At +3.3V, its typical on-resistance is 20Ω (max 25Ω), and logic inputs retain TTL/CMOS compatibility with VIN_H = 2.0V and VIN_L = 0.8V thresholds-ensuring robust interface with 3.3V microcontrollers and FPGAs without external level translation.
What is the maximum off-leakage current of the MAX4615ESD at elevated temperature?
The MAX4615ESD specifies a maximum off-leakage current of 6nA at TA = +85°C for both NO/NC and COM terminals, verified across production lots. This ultra-low leakage prevents voltage error buildup in high-impedance sample-and-hold circuits, sensor interfaces, and battery-monitoring applications where even picoamp-level currents degrade accuracy over time.
