Product details
Overview
MAX4617CSE from Analog Devices is an 8-channel single-pole/multi-throw CMOS analog multiplexer operating from +2V to +5.5V single supply, delivering 10Ω max on-resistance at +5V, 15ns enable turn-on time, and rail-to-rail analog signal handling for precision signal routing in low-voltage systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4617CSE datasheet, MAX4617CSE pinout, MAX4617CSE application, or MAX4617CSE equivalent, this device serves as a high-speed, low-leakage (1nA off-leakage at +25°C), TTL/CMOS-compatible analog switch optimized for battery-powered instrumentation, audio/video routing, and low-voltage data-acquisition front-ends.
Technical Context
The MAX4617CSE implements a digitally controlled 8:1 analog multiplexer using BiCMOS process technology, with address inputs A/B/C selecting one of eight bidirectional analog channels (X0–X7) to connect to common output X. Enable input controls global switch state with break-before-make timing of 0.2–1.5ns.
It features internal ESD protection diodes on all analog pins referenced to VCC and GND, supports rail-to-rail signal swing, and maintains guaranteed on-resistance matching ≤1Ω between channels at +5V - critical for channel-switching accuracy in measurement systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2V to +5.5V single supply - enables direct integration into 3.3V and 5V logic domains without level shifting. |
| On-Resistance (max) | 10Ω at +5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths. |
| tON / tOFF | 15ns / 10ns at +5V - supports high-speed multiplexing in sampling systems up to ~30MHz effective rate. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 1nA at +25°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces and battery-critical standby modes. |
| Channel Crosstalk | <−96dB at 100kHz - prevents interference between active and inactive channels in multi-signal routing. |
| Off-Isolation | <−93dB at 100kHz - blocks unwanted signal coupling from disabled channels into sensitive measurement nodes. |
| THD | <0.017% at 600Ω load - maintains fidelity in audio and instrumentation signal chains. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4617CSE is housed in a 16-pin narrow SO (Small Outline) package with standard 1.27mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant, suitable for automated PCB assembly and space-constrained designs.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | X0 | Analog input channel 0 - bidirectional, rail-to-rail capable, connects to common output X when selected. |
| 2 | X1 | Analog input channel 1 - identical electrical characteristics to X0; used for sequential channel selection. |
| 3 | X2 | Analog input channel 2 - shares same on-resistance flatness and leakage specs across full signal range. |
| 4 | X3 | Analog input channel 3 - supports simultaneous routing of multiple analog sources without cross-contamination. |
| 5 | X4 | Analog input channel 4 - validated for operation with signals from 0V to VCC under all supply conditions. |
| 6 | X5 | Analog input channel 5 - exhibits ≤1Ω on-resistance match vs. other channels at +5V, ensuring gain consistency. |
| 7 | X6 | Analog input channel 6 - low charge injection (3pC) minimizes transient errors during switching in sample-hold circuits. |
| 8 | GND | Ground reference - return path for analog and digital currents; must be low-impedance for noise control. |
| 9 | C | Digital address bit C - LSB of 3-bit binary select code (CBA); TTL/CMOS compatible at +5V supply. |
| 10 | B | Digital address bit B - middle bit of select code; threshold shifts with VCC (2.4V min at +5V, 2.0V at +3V). |
| 11 | A | Digital address bit A - MSB of select code; determines channel mapping per truth table (Table 1). |
| 12 | X7 | Analog input channel 7 - highest-numbered channel; fully characterized for leakage and distortion up to +85°C. |
| 13 | X | Common analog output - bidirectional node shared by all eight channels; connects to selected X0–X7. |
| 14 | ENABLE | Global enable input - logic high disables all switches; low enables channel selection via A/B/C. |
| 15 | N.C. | No connection - internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply - powers analog switches and digital logic; absolute max +6V; requires local decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin compatibility | Fully pin-compatible with industry-standard 74HC4051 and MAX4581 - enables drop-in replacement without PCB redesign. |
| On-resistance matching | Guaranteed ≤1Ω max difference between any two channels at +5V - eliminates gain error in multi-channel calibration. |
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports analog signals from 0V to VCC - preserves full dynamic range in single-supply sensor and audio interfaces. |
| Low crosstalk & isolation | −96dB crosstalk and −93dB off-isolation at 100kHz - essential for high-density analog routing in mixed-signal PCBs. |
| TTL/CMOS logic thresholds | 0.8V to 2.4V input thresholds at +5V - ensures reliable interfacing with microcontrollers, FPGAs, and logic families. |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4617CSE?
The MAX4617CSE has an absolute maximum supply voltage of +6V on VCC, but its specified operational range is +2V to +5.5V. Operating beyond +5.5V risks permanent damage and invalidates parametric guarantees. For reliable long-term use, maintain VCC ≤ +5.5V with appropriate decoupling, and observe proper power sequencing (VCC first, then logic/analog signals).
Does MAX4617CSE support bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, the MAX4617CSE supports fully bidirectional analog signal flow - any pin (X0–X7 or X) can serve as input or output. This is inherent to its CMOS transmission-gate architecture and confirmed in the Applications Information section: "Input and output pins are identical and interchangeable. Any may be considered an input or output; signals pass equally well in both directions."
What is the guaranteed on-resistance match between channels for MAX4617CSE?
The MAX4617CSE guarantees ≤1Ω on-resistance match (ΔRON) between any two channels when operated at +5V supply and +25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This tight matching ensures consistent gain and minimal channel-to-channel error in calibrated multi-sensor systems.
Can MAX4617CSE operate from a 3.3V supply?
Yes, the MAX4617CSE operates reliably from +3.3V (within its +2V to +5.5V range). At +3V supply, on-resistance increases to 20Ω max, tON/tOFF extends to 20ns/15ns, and logic thresholds adjust to 2.0V (high) and 0.5V (low) - all fully characterized and guaranteed in the datasheet's +3V section.
Is MAX4617CSE pin-compatible with the 74HC4051?
Yes, the MAX4617CSE is explicitly pin-compatible with the 74HC4051, as stated in the Features section: "Pin Compatible with Industry-Standard 74HC4051/74HC4052/74HC4053". Pin functions, numbering, and physical layout match exactly, enabling direct substitution in existing designs - though electrical performance (RON, speed, leakage) is significantly enhanced.
