Product details
Overview
MAX4618CEE+ from Analog Devices is a high-speed, low-voltage CMOS dual 4-channel analog multiplexer operating from a single +2V to +5.5V supply, featuring 15ns turn-on time, 10ns turn-off time, and guaranteed 10Ω max on-resistance at +5V - used for precision signal routing in battery-powered audio/video systems and low-voltage data acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4618CEE+ datasheet, MAX4618CEE+ pinout, MAX4618CEE+ application, or MAX4618CEE+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated dual-mux topology, confirmed TSSOP-16 package mapping, and two production-ready alternative parts with documented functional and parametric differences.
Technical Context
The MAX4618CEE+ integrates two independent 4-channel analog multiplexers sharing common digital control lines (A, B, ENABLE) but with separate analog I/O sets: X0–X3/X and Y0–Y3/Y. Each mux channel supports rail-to-rail analog signals and exhibits matched on-resistance (≤1Ω between channels at +5V) and ultra-low leakage (1nA off-leakage at +25°C).
Its TTL/CMOS-compatible logic thresholds (0.8V to 2.4V at +5V) enable direct interfacing with microcontrollers without level-shifting. The device uses BiCMOS process technology to achieve fast switching while maintaining low distortion (<0.017% at 600Ω) and high off-isolation (−93dB) at 100kHz.
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 systems without external regulators. |
| On-Resistance (max) | 10Ω at +5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths. |
| On-Resistance Match | ≤1Ω between channels at +5V - critical for gain-matching in multi-channel instrumentation and ADC front-ends. |
| Switching Speed | tON = 15ns, tOFF = 10ns - supports high-throughput signal routing in real-time audio and communications circuits. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 1nA at +25°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor interfaces and battery-monitoring applications. |
| Off-Isolation | −93dB at 100kHz - suppresses crosstalk between active and inactive channels in dense mixed-signal layouts. |
| Crosstalk | −96dB at 100kHz - maintains signal integrity when routing multiple analog sources to shared processing blocks. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4618CEE+ is housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package (JEDEC MO-153, 4.4mm × 5.0mm body, 0.65mm pitch), RoHS-compliant and lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | X0 | Analog input channel 0 of first 4:1 mux - connects to source signal selected when A=0, B=0. |
| 2 | X1 | Analog input channel 1 of first 4:1 mux - selected when A=1, B=0. |
| 3 | X2 | Analog input channel 2 of first 4:1 mux - selected when A=0, B=1. |
| 4 | X3 | Analog input channel 3 of first 4:1 mux - selected when A=1, B=1. |
| 5 | Y0 | Analog input channel 0 of second 4:1 mux - independently routed from X-side inputs. |
| 6 | Y1 | Analog input channel 1 of second 4:1 mux - enables parallel dual-path signal selection. |
| 7 | Y2 | Analog input channel 2 of second 4:1 mux - supports synchronized or independent addressing. |
| 8 | Y3 | Analog input channel 3 of second 4:1 mux - expands system-level analog routing flexibility. |
| 9 | A | LSB address input for both muxes - controls bit-0 of channel selection (0=L, 1=H). |
| 10 | B | MSB address input for both muxes - controls bit-1 of channel selection (0=L, 1=H). |
| 11 | ENABLE | Active-low global enable - pulls all switches open when high, enabling power-gating capability. |
| 12 | X | Common output of first 4:1 mux - delivers selected X0–X3 signal to downstream circuitry. |
| 13 | Y | Common output of second 4:1 mux - provides isolated output path for Y0–Y3 signals. |
| 14 | N.C. | No internal connection - must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practices. |
| 15 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - serves as return path for all analog signals and logic currents. |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply pin - powers internal CMOS switches and logic; sets analog signal range (0V to VCC). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 4-channel analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4582ESE+ | Same pinout and function; higher on-resistance (35Ω max at +5V) and slower switching (tON/tOFF = 125ns/90ns). | Acceptable where speed and on-resistance are less critical - e.g., DC-coupled sensor monitoring. | Select MAX4582ESE+ if legacy compatibility or cost sensitivity outweighs need for sub-20ns switching. |
| ADG708BRUZ | 8-channel single mux (not dual 4:1); 4Ω on-resistance at +5V but no ENABLE pin; requires separate logic decoding. | Suitable for centralized 8:1 routing instead of parallel dual-path selection - changes PCB layout and firmware logic. | Choose ADG708BRUZ only when consolidating to single 8-channel architecture and redesigning control interface. |
Compared with MAX4582ESE+, the MAX4618CEE+ delivers 8× faster switching and 3.5× lower on-resistance - critical for time-sensitive audio and wideband data acquisition. Versus ADG708BRUZ, it offers native dual-path control and hardware ENABLE, simplifying firmware and improving channel isolation in multi-signal systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for MAX4618CEE+?
The MAX4618CEE+ supports a single-supply voltage range of +2V to +5.5V. Operation above +5.5V violates absolute maximum ratings and risks permanent damage. At +5.5V, analog signal range extends from 0V to +5.5V, and all electrical specifications - including on-resistance and leakage - remain guaranteed per datasheet conditions.
Does MAX4618CEE+ support bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, the MAX4618CEE+ supports fully bidirectional analog signal flow: any pin labeled X0–X3, Y0–Y3, X, or Y may serve as input or output. This is inherent to its CMOS transmission-gate architecture - confirmed in the Applications Information section stating "Input and output pins are identical and interchangeable."
What is the guaranteed on-resistance match between channels for MAX4618CEE+?
The MAX4618CEE+ guarantees ≤1Ω on-resistance match (ΔRON) between any two channels when operated at +5V supply and +25°C. This specification is measured under defined conditions (VX,Y = 3V, IX,Y = 10mA) and ensures consistent gain and signal integrity across all eight channels.
Can MAX4618CEE+ be used with a +3.3V supply?
Yes, the MAX4618CEE+ is fully specified for +3.3V operation: on-resistance is guaranteed ≤20Ω max, switching times are ≤20ns/15ns (tON/tOFF), and logic thresholds adjust to 0.5V/2.0V (VIL/VIH). All performance metrics - including leakage and distortion - remain valid within the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range.
Is MAX4618CEE+ pin-compatible with standard 74HC4052 devices?
Yes, the MAX4618CEE+ is explicitly pin-compatible with the industry-standard 74HC4052 in TSSOP-16 package. Pin functions, physical layout, and logic truth table match exactly - enabling direct replacement without PCB modification, provided the system operates within MAX4618's voltage and timing specifications.
