Product details
Overview
MAX4630ESD+ from Maxim Integrated is a quad, single-pole/single-throw (SPST), normally closed (NC) CMOS analog switch with ±15kV ESD protection on NO/NC pins, 70Ω max on-resistance at +5V, 0.5nA off-leakage at +25°C, and rail-to-rail signal handling - used in battery-powered audio routing and automated test equipment where mechanical relay replacement is required.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4630ESD+ datasheet, MAX4630ESD+ pinout, MAX4630ESD+ application, or MAX4630ESD+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 70Ω on-resistance at 5V, ±15kV HBM ESD rating, 14-pin SO package compatibility, and NC-only switching topology versus NO/NC-mixed variants.
Technical Context
The MAX4630ESD+ implements four independent bilateral SPST switches with NC configuration, each controlled by TTL/CMOS-compatible digital inputs (IN1–IN4). Its internal SCR-based ESD protection activates within nanoseconds for ±15kV air-gap or contact discharge events on NO/NC terminals.
It operates from a single +2V to +12V supply, supports rail-to-rail analog signals up to V+, and maintains on-resistance flatness of 2Ω (typ) over the full signal range at 5V - critical for low-distortion audio and precision data-acquisition paths.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4620ESD+ | Quad NO (not NC) configuration; identical pinout, package, and electrical specs except switch state polarity | Suitable where default-open behavior is required (e.g., power-down isolation), not fail-safe continuity | Select MAX4620ESD+ only when circuit requires open-by-default signal paths at power-up or logic LOW control |
| ADG1434BRUZ | Quad SPST, NO/NC configurable per channel; 4.5Ω on-resistance (lower), but only ±4kV ESD rating; 16-pin TSSOP package | Used in high-precision lab equipment where ultra-low RON matters more than ESD robustness or SO footprint | Choose ADG1434BRUZ only if board redesign accommodates 16-pin TSSOP and system-level ESD is managed externally |
Compared with MAX4620ESD+, the MAX4630ESD+ provides fail-safe continuity at power-up and logic LOW, while ADG1434BRUZ offers lower on-resistance at the cost of ESD margin and package compatibility - making MAX4630ESD+ optimal for rugged, space-constrained, NC-required designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4630ESD+?
The MAX4630ESD+ has an absolute maximum supply voltage (V+) of +13V referenced to GND, with guaranteed operation from +2V to +12V. Operation at +12V is supported with proper 0.1µF local bypassing to ground; exceeding +13V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does MAX4630ESD+ support rail-to-rail analog signals?
Yes, MAX4630ESD+ supports rail-to-rail analog signals - meaning it can pass voltages from GND to V+ without clipping or distortion. This capability is enabled by its CMOS switch architecture and is confirmed across the full specified supply range (+2V to +12V).
How does the ESD protection in MAX4630ESD+ work during a ±15kV event?
During a ±15kV ESD event on NO/NC pins, on-chip bidirectional SCRs activate within nanoseconds, shunting surge current to GND. The SCR remains latched until current falls below ~110mA (room temp); external current limiting below 35mA ensures reliable turn-off after the event - a design requirement explicitly stated in the MAX4630ESD+ datasheet.
Is MAX4630ESD+ pin-compatible with the 74HC4066?
Yes, MAX4630ESD+ is pin-compatible with the industry-standard 74HC4066 quad analog switch in 14-pin SO package. Pin assignments for V+, GND, IN1–IN4, COM1–COM4, and NC1–NC4 match the 74HC4066 layout - enabling drop-in replacement with enhanced ESD robustness and lower on-resistance.
What is the typical on-resistance matching between channels in MAX4630ESD+?
The MAX4630ESD+ guarantees on-resistance matching of 0.5Ω (typical) at +5V and +25°C, defined as RON(MAX) – RON(MIN) across all four switches. This tight matching ensures uniform gain and minimal crosstalk-induced errors in multi-channel instrumentation and balanced signal routing.
