Product details
Overview
MAX4618CUE+T from Analog Devices is a high-speed, low-voltage CMOS dual 4-channel analog multiplexer operating from a single +2V to +5.5V supply. It features 15ns turn-on time, 10ns turn-off time, 10Ω max on-resistance at +5V, rail-to-rail analog signal handling, and TTL/CMOS-compatible logic thresholds - enabling precise signal routing in battery-powered audio/video systems and low-voltage data-acquisition front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4618CUE+T datasheet, MAX4618CUE+T pinout, MAX4618CUE+T application, or MAX4618CUE+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, functional pin mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts for signal-path design, BOM optimization, and supply continuity planning.
Technical Context
The MAX4618CUE+T implements two independent 4:1 analog multiplexers sharing common address (A, B) and enable inputs. Each channel supports bidirectional signal flow with guaranteed 1Ω on-resistance matching between channels at +5V supply and <0.017% THD into 600Ω load.
Its BiCMOS process enables fast switching (tON/tOFF ≤15ns/10ns), ultra-low leakage (1nA off-leakage at +25°C), and high off-isolation (–93dB) and crosstalk rejection (–96dB) - critical for precision multiplexing in mixed-signal instrumentation and communications interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2V to +5.5V single supply - supports direct integration with 3.3V and 5V logic domains without level shifters. |
| On-Resistance (max) | 10Ω at +5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in sensor or audio signal paths. |
| Switching Speed | tON = 15ns, tOFF = 10ns - enables high-throughput sampling in multi-channel ADC/DAC interfaces up to ~30MHz effective rate. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 1nA at +25°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor front-ends and battery-monitoring circuits. |
| Channel Crosstalk | –96dB at 100kHz - prevents interference between active and inactive channels in RF or audio routing applications. |
| THD | <0.017% at 1VP-P, 20Hz–20kHz into 600Ω - maintains fidelity in line-level audio switching without audible distortion. |
| Logic Compatibility | 0.8V to 2.4V input thresholds at +5V supply - ensures reliable interface with standard TTL and CMOS digital controllers. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4618CUE+T is housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package (JEDEC MO-153, 4.4mm × 5mm body, 0.65mm pitch), RoHS-compliant and tape-and-reel packaged (+T suffix). Thermal performance supports 755mW continuous dissipation at +70°C ambient.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | X0 | Analog input channel 0 of first 4:1 mux - connects to selected signal source 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 based on same A/B address. |
| 6 | Y1 | Analog input channel 1 of second 4:1 mux - shares address lines but isolated signal path. |
| 7 | Y2 | Analog input channel 2 of second 4:1 mux - enables dual parallel multiplexing without cross-talk. |
| 8 | Y3 | Analog input channel 3 of second 4:1 mux - supports simultaneous selection of two independent 4:1 paths. |
| 9 | A | LSB address input - controls bit 0 of 2-bit channel select for both muxes. |
| 10 | B | MSB address input - controls bit 1 of 2-bit channel select for both muxes. |
| 11 | ENABLE | Active-low global enable - drives all switches open when high; required for power gating and fault isolation. |
| 12 | X | Common output of first 4:1 mux - carries selected X0–X3 signal to downstream circuitry. |
| 13 | Y | Common output of second 4:1 mux - carries selected Y0–Y3 signal, electrically isolated from X path. |
| 14 | N.C. | No internal connection - must be left unconnected or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 15 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - shared return for supply, logic, and signal paths; requires low-impedance plane. |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply pin - powers internal CMOS switches and logic; must be decoupled with 0.1µF ceramic near pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin compatibility | Fully pin-compatible with industry-standard 74HC4052 and MAX4582 - enables drop-in replacement without PCB redesign. |
| On-resistance matching | Guaranteed ≤1Ω max difference between any two channels at +5V - ensures consistent gain and offset across multiplexed sensor channels. |
| Rail-to-rail analog range | Supports signals from GND to VCC - eliminates clipping in single-supply systems interfacing with op-amps or ADCs. |
| Low charge injection | 3pC typical - minimizes voltage glitch on high-impedance nodes during switching, critical for sample-and-hold stability. |
| Break-before-make timing | 0.2–1.5ns - prevents momentary shorting between channels during address transitions, protecting sensitive sources. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4582CSE+T | Same pinout and function; higher on-resistance (25Ω max at +5V) and slower switching (tON = 25ns). | Suitable for cost-sensitive, lower-speed designs where 10Ω RON and 15ns tON are not required. | Select MAX4582CSE+T only if budget constraints outweigh need for lowest on-resistance and fastest settling. |
| 74HC4052D,653 | Industry-standard CMOS mux; no guaranteed RON matching, higher THD (>0.1%), and no specified off-isolation. | Applicable in non-critical digital control or low-fidelity analog routing where precision specs are relaxed. | Choose 74HC4052D,653 for legacy compatibility or general-purpose switching where Analog Devices' performance guarantees are unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX4618CUE+T, MAX4582CSE+T trades speed and on-resistance for lower cost, while 74HC4052D,653 offers broad availability but lacks guaranteed analog performance - making MAX4618CUE+T optimal for precision, high-speed, or battery-constrained signal routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for MAX4618CUE+T?
The MAX4618CUE+T is rated for 0°C to +70°C operation, as indicated by the 'C' suffix in its part number. This commercial-grade temperature range is validated per the device's Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables, with all key parameters (e.g., on-resistance, leakage, switching times) guaranteed across this span. For extended-range applications, the MAX4618EUE+T (–40°C to +85°C) is the qualified alternative.
Does MAX4618CUE+T support bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, MAX4618CUE+T supports fully bidirectional analog signal flow - its X0–X3 and Y0–Y3 inputs and X/Y outputs are interchangeable per the datasheet's "Note: Input and output pins are identical and interchangeable." This allows flexible routing in both source-to-load and load-to-source configurations without signal degradation, confirmed by identical on-resistance and THD specifications regardless of direction.
What is the guaranteed on-resistance matching between channels for MAX4618CUE+T?
MAX4618CUE+T guarantees ≤1Ω on-resistance matching (ΔRON) between any two channels when operated at +5V supply and TA = +25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This matching holds across the full analog signal range (0V to VCC) and ensures consistent gain and offset in multi-channel measurement systems where channel-to-channel uniformity is critical.
Can MAX4618CUE+T operate from a +3.3V supply?
Yes, MAX4618CUE+T operates reliably from a +3.3V supply, with guaranteed performance including 20Ω max on-resistance, 20ns max tON, 15ns max tOFF, and 1nA off-leakage at +25°C. Its logic thresholds scale with VCC (2.0V min high, 0.5V max low at +3.3V), ensuring compatibility with standard 3.3V digital controllers without external level shifting.
Is MAX4618CUE+T pin-compatible with 74HC4052?
Yes, MAX4618CUE+T is explicitly pin-compatible with the industry-standard 74HC4052, as confirmed in the datasheet's "Pin Nomenclature" section and Truth Table. Both share identical 16-pin TSSOP/SO/DIP footprints, pin functions (X0–X3, Y0–Y3, X, Y, A, B, ENABLE, GND, VCC), and logic diagrams - enabling direct substitution in existing layouts where enhanced analog performance is needed.
