Product details
Overview
MAX4618ESE+ 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 - optimized for audio/video signal routing and battery-operated data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4618ESE+ datasheet, MAX4618ESE+ pinout, MAX4618ESE+ application, or MAX4618ESE+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package-specific terminal mapping, real-world use-value context, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level differences.
Technical Context
The MAX4618ESE+ integrates two independent 4-channel analog multiplexers in a single 16-pin narrow SO package, each controlled by shared A/B address lines and individual enable logic. Its BiCMOS process enables rail-to-rail analog signal handling (0V to VCC) with sub-1nA leakage at +25°C and TTL/CMOS-compatible digital inputs (0.8V/2.4V thresholds at +5V).
Switching performance is characterized by break-before-make timing of ≤1.5ns, 3pC charge injection, and low capacitive loading: 15pF output off-capacitance and 21pF output on-capacitance - enabling stable operation up to 50MHz in 50Ω systems with <-96dB crosstalk and <-93dB off-isolation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2V to +5.5V single supply - supports direct integration into 3.3V and 5V logic domains without level shifters. |
| On-Resistance (max) | 10Ω at +5V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths. |
| Switching Speed | tON = 15ns, tOFF = 10ns - enables high-throughput signal routing in real-time audio and instrumentation applications. |
| Off-Leakage Current | 1nA at +25°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor front-ends and battery-critical standby modes. |
| Crosstalk / Off-Isolation | -96dB crosstalk, -93dB off-isolation - prevents channel coupling in multi-signal routing such as video matrix switching. |
| Analog Signal Range | Rail-to-rail (0V to VCC) - accommodates full-scale signals without clipping in unipolar data acquisition. |
| Total Harmonic Distortion | <0.017% at 600Ω load - maintains fidelity in audio-grade signal path applications. |

| 15 | VCC | Positive supply for analog switch core and digital control logic - decoupling capacitor required. |
| 16 | NC | No connection - not internally bonded; leave floating or omit from PCB layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin compatibility | Fully pin-compatible with industry-standard 74HC4052 and MAX4582 - enables drop-in replacement without layout change. |

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, identical 16-pin narrow SO package; slightly higher 12Ω RON at +5V and 20ns tON. | Valid for legacy designs using MAX4582 footprint; lower bandwidth (30MHz) limits HD video use. | Select when sourcing continuity is prioritized over speed or on-resistance - fully compatible with existing MAX4582 layouts. |
| 74HC4052D,653 | Industry-standard 16-pin SO; 120Ω RON at +4.5V, 120ns switching - significantly slower and higher resistance. | Suitable only for low-frequency (<1MHz), non-precision applications like LED or relay control signal routing. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-critical signal paths where speed and leakage are not design constraints. |
Compared with MAX4618ESE+, MAX4582ESE+ offers identical form-factor and near-equivalent performance for most industrial signal routing, while 74HC4052D,653 serves cost-driven, low-speed applications but lacks the rail-to-rail capability, low leakage, and high-frequency integrity required for precision analog systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for MAX4618ESE+?
The MAX4618ESE+ is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C, as indicated by the "E" grade in its part number. This extended temperature range makes it suitable for industrial and automotive-adjacent applications where ambient conditions exceed commercial-grade limits. All electrical specifications in the datasheet - including on-resistance, leakage, and switching times - are guaranteed across this full range. The narrow SO package provides reliable thermal performance under continuous operation at maximum junction temperature.
Does MAX4618ESE+ support rail-to-rail analog signal switching?
Yes, MAX4618ESE+ supports true rail-to-rail analog signal switching - meaning it can pass signals from 0V up to VCC without clipping or distortion. This is enabled by its BiCMOS architecture and internal charge-pump-free design. At VCC = +5V, analog inputs and outputs operate from 0V to +5V; at VCC = +3.3V, the range is 0V to +3.3V. This capability eliminates the need for external level-shifting circuitry in unipolar sensor or audio signal paths.
Is MAX4618ESE+ pin-compatible with 74HC4052?
Yes, MAX4618ESE+ is fully pin-compatible with the industry-standard 74HC4052 in the 16-pin narrow SO package. Pin assignments for address lines (A/B), enable (ENABLE), common terminals (X/Y), and channel inputs (X0–X3, Y0–Y3) match exactly. However, MAX4618ESE+ delivers superior performance: 15ns vs. 120ns switching, 10Ω vs. 120Ω on-resistance, and 1nA vs. 100nA leakage - making it a functional and mechanical upgrade path.
What is the maximum analog signal frequency supported by MAX4618ESE+?
MAX4618ESE+ maintains usable signal integrity up to 50MHz in 50Ω systems, with <-93dB off-isolation and <-96dB crosstalk at 100kHz. Its -3dB bandwidth exceeds 100MHz in low-impedance configurations, but practical high-frequency use is limited by off-capacitance (15pF) and PCB layout parasitics. For video applications, it supports composite (NTSC/PAL) and component (YPbPr) signals up to 10MHz with <0.017% THD - verified in typical operating characteristics plots.
How does the ENABLE pin function on MAX4618ESE+?
The ENABLE pin on MAX4618ESE+ is an active-low control that globally disables both 4-channel multiplexers. When ENABLE is logic high (≥2.4V at VCC = +5V), all analog switches open - presenting high impedance between all inputs and outputs. When ENABLE is logic low (≤0.8V), the muxes respond to A/B address inputs. This feature enables system-level power gating: pulling ENABLE high reduces supply current to ≤10µA, making it ideal for battery-critical standby modes in portable instrumentation.
