Product details
Overview
MAX4616CPD from Analog Devices is a quad SPST CMOS analog switch with two normally open (NO) and two normally closed (NC) channels, operating from +2V to +5.5V supply. It delivers 10Ω max on-resistance at +5V, 1Ω max channel-to-channel match, and rail-to-rail signal handling (0V to V+), enabling precise low-voltage signal routing in battery-powered audio/video systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4616CPD datasheet, MAX4616CPD pinout, MAX4616CPD application, or MAX4616CPD equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual NO/NC topology, 12ns tON/10ns tOFF switching, <6nA off-leakage at +85°C, TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, and 14-pin Plastic DIP package for through-hole prototyping and industrial control interfaces.
Technical Context
The MAX4616CPD integrates four independent SPST switches in a single 14-pin DIP package, with IN1–IN4 digital control inputs driving two NO (NO1, NO3) and two NC (NC2, NC4) switch pairs. Its CMOS architecture ensures rail-to-rail analog signal range (0V to V+) and guarantees matched on-resistance (≤1Ω) and flatness (≤1Ω) across the full signal swing.
Switching performance is optimized for high-speed signal paths: 12ns turn-on and 10ns turn-off times are specified at +5V/25°C with 300Ω load and 35pF capacitance. Logic thresholds (VIN_H = 2.4V, VIN_L = 0.8V at +5V) ensure direct interface with TTL and CMOS microcontrollers without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2V to +5.5V - supports Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V system rails without external regulation |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 10Ω max at +5V - minimizes signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths |
| On-Resistance Match | 1Ω max between channels - enables accurate differential or ratiometric measurements |
| Turn-On / Turn-Off Time | 12ns / 10ns at +5V - suitable for multiplexed data acquisition up to ~30MHz effective bandwidth |
| Off-Leakage Current | 6nA max at +85°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sample-and-hold or sensor front-ends |
| Logic Compatibility | TTL/CMOS thresholds (0.8V/2.4V at +5V) - direct interfacing with FPGA I/O, MCU GPIO, and ASIC control buses |
| Analog Signal Range | 0V to V+ - supports full-rail input/output without clipping in unipolar signal chains |
Pinout & Package
MAX4616CPD uses a 14-pin Plastic DIP (dual in-line package) with 0.3-inch body width, compatible with standard through-hole PCB layouts and breadboard prototyping. Pin spacing is 0.1 inch (2.54 mm), and the package operates over 0°C to +70°C ambient temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8 | NO1, NO3 | Normally open analog terminals - conduct only when corresponding IN1/IN3 = HIGH; bidirectional signal path |
| 3, 11 | NC2, NC4 | Normally closed analog terminals - conduct when corresponding IN2/IN4 = LOW; default signal continuity path |
| 2, 4, 9, 10 | COM1–COM4 | Common analog terminals - connect to signal source/load; shared node for each SPST switch |
| 5, 6, 12, 13 | IN1–IN4 | Digital control inputs - TTL/CMOS-compatible; drive internal gate logic to select NO/NC state per channel |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference - return path for logic and analog circuits; must be low-impedance for leakage and noise control |
| 14 | V+ | Positive supply - powers analog switch core and input buffers; decoupling capacitor required near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual NO/NC configuration | Two normally open and two normally closed switches enable fail-safe or redundant signal routing in safety-critical paths |
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports 0V to V+ analog signals without clamping or distortion - essential for unipolar sensor outputs and DAC interfaces |
| Guaranteed 1Ω on-resistance match | Ensures consistent gain and offset across multiple channels in multi-path instrumentation or calibration circuits |
| 12ns tON / 10ns tOFF | Enables time-multiplexed sampling of fast analog waveforms with minimal aperture jitter in data-acquisition systems |
| <6nA off-leakage at +85°C | Maintains accuracy in high-impedance (>1MΩ) circuits such as piezoelectric sensors or electrophysiology front-ends |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4614CPD | Four NO-only switches; identical RON, timing, and package; no NC functionality | Suitable where all paths require active-enable behavior (e.g., sensor array scanning) | Select MAX4614CPD when only normally open switching is needed and NO/NC duality is unnecessary |
| MAX4615CPD | Four NC-only switches; same electrical specs and pinout; complementary logic polarity | Preferred in fail-safe designs requiring default-closed signal paths (e.g., emergency bypass circuits) | Choose MAX4615CPD when continuous signal flow is required until de-energized |
Compared with MAX4616CPD, MAX4614CPD offers pure NO topology for simplified control logic, while MAX4615CPD provides NC-only behavior for default-closed reliability-both share identical speed, leakage, and package but lack the hybrid NO/NC flexibility of MAX4616CPD.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4616CPD?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for MAX4616CPD is +6V, but the recommended operating range is +2V to +5.5V. Exceeding +6V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings. At +5.5V, on-resistance remains ≤10Ω and leakage stays within spec; operation above +5.5V voids guaranteed performance and reliability.
Does MAX4616CPD support rail-to-rail analog signal operation?
Yes, MAX4616CPD supports true rail-to-rail analog signal handling from 0V to V+, meaning signals can swing fully between ground and the positive supply without clipping or distortion. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Analog Signal Range" and applies across the full +2V to +5.5V supply range and -40°C to +85°C temperature extremes.
How does the dual NO/NC configuration of MAX4616CPD differ from MAX4614CPD and MAX4615CPD?
MAX4616CPD integrates two normally open (NO1, NO3) and two normally closed (NC2, NC4) switches in one device, enabling simultaneous active-high and active-low control paths. In contrast, MAX4614CPD contains four NO-only switches, and MAX4615CPD contains four NC-only switches - all share identical pinout, RON, timing, and package but differ exclusively in default switch state logic.
What is the off-leakage current specification for MAX4616CPD at elevated temperature?
MAX4616CPD guarantees ≤6nA maximum off-leakage current (INO(OFF) and ICOM(OFF)) at TA = +85°C, tested per Note 6 in the datasheet. At +25°C, leakage is ≤1nA. This low leakage is critical for high-impedance applications like piezoelectric sensors or electrometer-grade front-ends where bias currents directly impact accuracy.
Is MAX4616CPD pin-compatible with industry-standard analog switches?
Yes, MAX4616CPD is pin-compatible with the 74HC4066 and MAX4610 analog switches, sharing identical 14-pin DIP pinout and logic-level interface. This allows drop-in replacement in existing designs using those parts, provided the dual NO/NC functionality aligns with system requirements - no PCB layout changes are needed.
