Product details
Overview
MAX4625EUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a make-before-break SPDT analog switch optimized for low-voltage signal routing, featuring 1Ω max on-resistance at +5V, 50ns max turn-on/turn-off time, and integrated overcurrent protection. It operates from a single +1.8V to +5.5V supply and is used in battery-powered audio routing, PCMCIA card switching, and low-voltage data-acquisition front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4625EUT+T datasheet, MAX4625EUT+T pinout, MAX4625EUT+T application, or MAX4625EUT+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed make-before-break timing, RON flatness ≤0.12Ω, overcurrent threshold of 1.2A, and SOT23-6 package compatibility with legacy MAX4544 designs.
Technical Context
The MAX4625EUT+T implements a CMOS-based SPDT architecture with internal current-limit and thermal-shutdown circuitry that activates after ~0.6V drop across the channel. Its logic input accepts rail-to-rail voltages up to +5.5V independent of V+, enabling mixed-supply interfacing.
Unlike the break-before-make MAX4624, the MAX4625 guarantees make-before-break operation with tMBB ≤6ns (typ) and no interruption during signal path transfer-critical for glitch-sensitive audio and communications circuits where continuity must be preserved during switching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance (RON) | 1Ω max at +5V - enables ≤100mA continuous analog current with <5mV IR drop at full load |
| RON Flatness | 0.12Ω max over 0–5V range - ensures consistent gain/attenuation across full signal swing |
| Switching Speed | tON/tOFF = 50ns max - supports >10MHz digital control rates and fast multiplexing |
| Overcurrent Threshold | 1.2A typ - protects against short circuits while allowing brief 400mA peak pulses |
| Supply Range | +1.8V to +5.5V - supports direct interface with Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V systems without level shifters |
| Logic Compatibility | TTL-compatible at +5V - accepts 0.8V/2.4V thresholds; IN tolerant to +5.5V regardless of V+ |
| Off-Leakage Current | ±20nA max at +25°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces |
Pinout & Package
MAX4625EUT+T is housed in a standard 6-pin SOT23-6 package (1.6mm × 2.8mm × 1.1mm), RoHS-compliant and optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - IN | Digital control input | Active-high logic pin; drives internal switch matrix; tolerant to 0–5.5V regardless of V+ setting |
| 2 - V+ | Positive supply rail | Single power source for analog and logic sections; must be applied before analog signals to prevent latch-up |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Analog and digital common return; required for proper overcurrent detection and RON specification |
| 4 - NC | Normally closed analog terminal | Connected to COM when IN = low; bidirectional signal path with same RON and bandwidth as NO |
| 5 - COM | Common analog terminal | Central I/O node; connects to either NC or NO depending on IN state; supports ±200mA continuous current |
| 6 - NO | Normally open analog terminal | Connected to COM when IN = high; identical electrical specs to NC; enables SPDT signal path selection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed make-before-break | tMBB ≤6ns ensures zero-break continuity during switching-essential for audio mute/unmute and live signal re-routing |
| Integrated overcurrent protection | Auto-cycles off/on under sustained overload (5ms on, 5ms off); responds instantly to hard shorts with 1µs pulse |
| Low RON flatness (0.12Ω) | Maintains linearity across full 0–5V analog range-critical for precision instrumentation and DAC output switching |
| Rail-to-rail logic input tolerance | IN accepts 0–5.5V regardless of V+ (1.8–5.5V), simplifying interface with FPGAs, microcontrollers, and mixed-voltage systems |
| Pin compatibility with MAX4544 | Drop-in replacement for legacy designs-no PCB changes required; shares identical SOT23-6 footprint and pin mapping |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SPDT analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4625EZT+T | Same die, Thin SOT23-6 package (1.0mm height); identical electrical specs | Preferred for new designs requiring lower profile; same thermal derating (6.25mW/°C above +70°C) | Select for space-constrained layouts where Z-height <1.1mm is critical |
| MAX4544EUT+T | No overcurrent protection; break-before-make only; RON = 1.5Ω max at +5V | Lacks fault resilience; unsuitable for short-circuit-prone environments like docking stations or hot-swap cards | Choose only if cost sensitivity outweighs protection requirements and MB/B timing is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX4625EZT+T, the MAX4625EUT+T offers identical performance in a standard-height SOT23-6-ideal for legacy board reuse. Against MAX4544EUT+T, the MAX4625EUT+T adds essential overcurrent safety and guaranteed make-before-break, justifying its use in robust portable and communications systems.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed make-before-break timing for MAX4625EUT+T?
The MAX4625EUT+T guarantees a make-before-break delay (tMBB) of ≤6ns at +25°C and ≤8ns across the full –40°C to +85°C operating range. This specification ensures uninterrupted signal continuity during switching transitions-critical for audio mute/unmute functions and live signal reconfiguration without glitches. The timing is validated per Figure 3b in the official MAX4624/MAX4625 datasheet and applies exclusively to the MAX4625EUT+T variant.
Does MAX4625EUT+T support rail-to-rail analog signal levels?
Yes, the MAX4625EUT+T supports analog signal levels from GND to V+ (0V to +5.5V) with minimal RON variation-flatness is specified at ≤0.12Ω over the full 0–5V range at +5V supply. This enables accurate transmission of unipolar and bipolar signals (when referenced appropriately) without clipping or distortion, provided V+ is within the +1.8V to +5.5V operating range. The device is fully bidirectional, so NO, NC, and COM may serve as inputs or outputs interchangeably.
What overcurrent protection behavior does MAX4625EUT+T exhibit under a short-circuit condition?
Under a hard short, the MAX4625EUT+T detects overcurrent within microseconds and limits output to a 1µs pulse followed by a 5ms off period-repeating this cycle until the fault clears. For sustained overload (e.g., 1.2A for >100ms), it enters thermal shutdown and cycles on/off every 5ms. This behavior is intrinsic to the MAX4625EUT+T's internal protection circuitry and requires no external components. The 1.2A threshold is typical and tested across temperature; actual trip point varies ±15% over –40°C to +85°C.
Is MAX4625EUT+T pin-compatible with MAX4544EUT+T?
Yes, the MAX4625EUT+T is fully pin-compatible with the MAX4544EUT+T in the SOT23-6 package: both share identical pinout (IN, V+, GND, NC, COM, NO), footprint, and solder pad layout. However, the MAX4625EUT+T adds overcurrent protection and guaranteed make-before-break timing-features absent in the MAX4544EUT+T. No PCB redesign is needed for drop-in replacement, though system-level validation of protection behavior and timing is recommended.
What is the maximum continuous current rating for MAX4625EUT+T at +85°C ambient?
The MAX4625EUT+T supports ±200mA continuous current through NO or NC to COM at +85°C ambient, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings. At elevated temperatures, derating applies: the 6-pin SOT23 package has a thermal resistance of 140°C/W, limiting practical continuous current to ~150mA when power dissipation exceeds 75mW. This value is confirmed for the MAX4625EUT+T across its full operating range and assumes adequate PCB copper area for heat sinking.
