Product details
Overview
MAX4616ESD 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, 12ns turn-on time, and rail-to-rail signal handling (0V to V+), enabling precise low-voltage signal routing in battery-powered audio and data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4616ESD datasheet, MAX4616ESD pinout, MAX4616ESD application, or MAX4616ESD equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance matching (≤1Ω), sub-10nA off-leakage at +85°C, TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, and 14-pin narrow SO package suitability for space-constrained industrial and portable designs.
Technical Context
The MAX4616ESD integrates four independent SPST switches-two NO and two NC-controlled by four digital inputs (IN1–IN4), each with fixed 0.8V/2.4V logic thresholds ensuring robust TTL/CMOS interoperability at +5V. Its CMOS architecture enables rail-to-rail analog conduction without level-shifting circuitry.
Each channel maintains matched on-resistance (≤1Ω max) and flatness (≤1Ω max over full signal range), critical for precision multiplexing and sample-and-hold accuracy. Off-isolation exceeds –85dB at 100kHz, and crosstalk remains below –96dB between any two switches, supporting high-fidelity A/V routing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2V to +5.5V - supports direct integration into 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V systems without external regulators |
| On-Resistance (max) | 10Ω at +5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in low-level sensor or audio paths |
| On-Resistance Match | ≤1Ω max between channels - enables accurate differential or ratiometric measurements across switched paths |
| Turn-On / Turn-Off Time | 12ns / 10ns at +5V - allows high-speed multiplexing in data-acquisition and communication timing-critical applications |
| Off-Leakage Current | 6nA max at TA = +85°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sample-and-hold or battery-monitoring circuits |
| Analog Signal Range | 0V to V+ - supports true rail-to-rail input/output 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
MAX4616ESD is housed in a 14-pin narrow SO (Small Outline) package rated for –40°C to +85°C operation, with 0.15mm lead finish and JEDEC MS-012AC compliance. Pin pitch is 1.27mm; body width is 3.9mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 8 | NO1, NO3 | Normally open analog terminals - conduct only when corresponding IN1/IN3 is HIGH; bidirectional signal path |
| 11 | NC4 | Normally closed analog terminal - conducts when IN4 is LOW; complements NO/NC pairing for fail-safe routing |
| 2, 4, 9, 10 | COM1–COM4 | Common analog terminals - serve as central connection points for all four SPST switches |
| 5, 6, 12, 13 | IN1–IN4 | Digital control inputs - accept TTL/CMOS logic levels; no external pull-ups required |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must be low-impedance for leakage-sensitive applications |
| 14 | V+ | Positive supply - powers internal CMOS switch array and logic; absolute max 6V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-Rail® Signal Handling | Supports 0V to V+ analog signals without clamping or distortion - eliminates need for external level shifters in single-supply designs |
| Guaranteed On-Resistance Flatness | ≤1Ω variation across full signal range - ensures consistent gain and linearity in precision instrumentation front-ends |
| Low Charge Injection (6.5pC) | Minimizes voltage glitch on sampled nodes - critical for high-resolution ADC drivers and sample-and-hold hold-phase stability |
| High Off-Isolation (–85dB) | Prevents signal coupling between inactive channels - essential for clean A/V matrix switching and RF-adjacent analog routing |
| Pin Compatibility with 74HC4066/MAX4610 | Enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs - reduces redesign risk and accelerates qualification in industrial upgrades |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4616EUD | TSSOP-14 package (4.4mm width) vs. narrow SO (3.9mm); identical electrical specs and pinout | Better thermal dissipation (6.3mW/°C derating vs. 8.0mW/°C) but requires PCB footprint change | Select MAX4616EUD for higher ambient temperature operation (>85°C board hot spots) where layout allows TSSOP |
| ADG1419BRUZ | Single-pole double-throw (SPDT) topology; 1.5Ω on-resistance; ±15V dual-supply capable; not pin-compatible | Supports bipolar signal routing and higher voltage rails but requires logic inversion and new layout | Choose ADG1419BRUZ only when bipolar signal handling or sub-1Ω RON is mandatory - not a drop-in replacement |
Compared with MAX4616EUD and ADG1419BRUZ, the MAX4616ESD provides optimal trade-off of narrow-SO footprint, guaranteed 10Ω RON, and industry-standard pinout for cost-sensitive, space-constrained portable designs requiring proven reliability across –40°C to +85°C.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4616ESD?
The MAX4616ESD has an absolute maximum supply voltage (V+) of +6V. Operation above +5.5V is not recommended, as exceeding the specified +2V to +5.5V operating range may degrade performance or reliability. The device is fully characterized and guaranteed at +5V, +3.3V, and +2.5V supplies, with on-resistance increasing predictably at lower voltages.
Does MAX4616ESD support rail-to-rail analog signal switching?
Yes, the MAX4616ESD supports true rail-to-rail analog signal switching - its analog terminals (COM, NO, NC) operate from 0V to V+ with no clamping diodes active within that range. This capability is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Electrical Characteristics sections, enabling seamless integration in single-supply systems without external level-shifting circuitry.
How does the NO/NC configuration of MAX4616ESD differ from MAX4614 and MAX4615?
The MAX4616ESD contains two normally open (NO) switches (NO1, NO3) and two normally closed (NC) switches (NC2, NC4), whereas MAX4614ESD has four NO switches and MAX4615ESD has four NC switches. This hybrid configuration allows fail-safe signal routing - e.g., default connection through NC paths during power loss or logic fault, with NO paths activated only on command.
What is the guaranteed on-resistance match specification for MAX4616ESD?
The MAX4616ESD guarantees on-resistance match between channels of ≤1Ω maximum at +25°C and ≤1.2Ω over the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. This parameter (ΔRON) is defined as the difference between maximum and minimum RON values measured under identical conditions (V+ = 4.5V, ICOM = 10mA), ensuring predictable channel-to-channel gain consistency.
Is MAX4616ESD pin-compatible with the 74HC4066?
Yes, the MAX4616ESD is explicitly stated in the datasheet to be pin compatible with the industry-standard 74HC4066 and MAX4610 analog switches. All four devices share identical 14-pin SO/TSSOP/DIP pinouts and logic-level assignments, allowing direct substitution without PCB modification - provided supply voltage and temperature requirements align.
