Product details
Overview
MAX4636EUB+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual single-pole/double-throw (SPDT) CMOS analog switch with 4Ω max on-resistance at +5V, 14ns max turn-on time, and rail-to-rail signal handling from +1.8V to +5.5V supply. It features independent channel control, break-before-make switching, and low crosstalk (–67dB at 1MHz), making it suitable for audio routing and low-voltage data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4636EUB+T datasheet, MAX4636EUB+T pinout, MAX4636EUB+T application, or MAX4636EUB+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance flatness (≤1Ω at +5V), logic-level tolerance up to +5.5V regardless of V+, and µMAX package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX4636EUB+T implements two independent SPDT switches using CMOS process technology, with noninverting logic control (IN1/IN2 high = NO_ connected to COM_). Its break-before-make architecture prevents momentary shorting between NC_ and NO_ paths during state transitions.
Signal integrity is maintained via rail-to-rail analog operation, low charge injection (2pC typical at +5V), and matched on-resistance (≤0.2Ω max between channels), enabling precise signal routing in bidirectional audio and sensor interfaces without level-shifting circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance (max) | 4Ω at +5V supply - enables ≤10mA continuous current per channel with <20mV drop at full scale |
| Turn-On Time (max) | 14ns - supports >30MHz digital signal routing and fast multiplexing in sampling systems |
| Rail-to-Rail Signal Range | 0V to V+ - preserves full dynamic range of baseband audio and sensor signals without clipping |
| Crosstalk (at 1MHz) | –67dB - isolates adjacent channels in multi-source audio/video switching applications |
| Off-Isolation (at 1MHz) | –65dB - prevents leakage from active to inactive signal paths in relay-replacement circuits |
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.8V to +5.5V - operates directly from Li-ion battery, 3.3V logic, or 5V legacy rails without regulators |
| Logic Input Tolerance | +5.5V absolute max - allows direct interfacing with 5V microcontrollers while powered from 3.3V or lower |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4636EUB+T is housed in a 10-pin µMAX package (3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.8mm, no exposed pad), optimized for high-density analog routing. Pin 1 is marked by a dot; pin numbering follows standard counter-clockwise orientation from top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1 | Logic control input for Switch 1 | Active-high: high voltage connects NO1 to COM1; low voltage connects NC1 to COM1 |
| NO1 | Normally open terminal, Switch 1 | Open-circuit path when IN1 = low; forms closed path with COM1 when IN1 = high |
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for supply current and logic thresholds; must be low-impedance for THD < 0.1% |
| NO2 | Normally open terminal, Switch 2 | Independent of Switch 1; enables dual-path routing without shared control logic |
| IN2 | Logic control input for Switch 2 | Noninverting control identical to IN1; allows asynchronous switching of both SPDTs |
| COM2 | Common terminal, Switch 2 | Bidirectional node: accepts analog input or delivers output depending on signal flow direction |
| NC2 | Normally closed terminal, Switch 2 | Closed path with COM2 when IN2 = low; breaks before NO2 closes during transition |
| V+ | Positive supply input | Accepts +1.8V to +5.5V; powers internal CMOS gate drive and analog pass transistors |
| NC1 | Normally closed terminal, Switch 1 | Provides complementary path to NO1; ensures no floating node during switching |
| COM1 | Common terminal, Switch 1 | Primary signal interface point; routed to either NO1 or NC1 based on IN1 state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed on-resistance match | ≤0.2Ω max between channels - eliminates gain mismatch in differential signal routing |
| Rail-to-rail analog operation | Full V+ to GND signal swing preserved - avoids external biasing in single-supply audio stages |
| Low THD | 0.1% at 20Hz–20kHz - maintains fidelity in line-level audio switching without post-filtering |
| Break-before-make timing | 1ns min interval - prevents momentary short-circuits in power-sensitive analog front-ends |
| Low off-isolation degradation | –65dB maintained up to 10MHz - ensures RF-adjacent signal integrity in mixed-signal PCBs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG736BRMZ-REEL | 4.5Ω max RON at +5V; 16ns tON; 10-lead MSOP package | Slightly higher propagation delay; same µMAX footprint-compatible pinout but different pin mapping | Select for ADI ecosystem integration where MSOP thermal performance is prioritized over µMAX board area |
| TS5A3159DBVR | 0.75Ω max RON at +5V; 10ns tON; 6-pin SOT-23 package | Single SPDT only; lower on-resistance but no dual-channel integration | Choose when board space permits discrete switches and ultra-low RON is critical for high-current sensor interfaces |
Compared with ADG736BRMZ-REEL and TS5A3159DBVR, the MAX4636EUB+T provides optimal balance of dual-channel integration, 4Ω RON, and µMAX footprint-making it preferred for compact, battery-powered systems requiring simultaneous audio and sensor routing without layout redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX4636EUB+T?
The MAX4636EUB+T has an absolute maximum supply voltage (V+) of +6V, but its specified operating range is +1.8V to +5.5V. Exceeding +6V risks permanent damage. The device guarantees full parametric performance-including 4Ω max on-resistance and 14ns max turn-on time-only within the +4.5V to +5.5V range per the datasheet's electrical characteristics table. Operation at +5.5V is safe and supported.
Does MAX4636EUB+T support bidirectional analog signal flow?
Yes, MAX4636EUB+T supports fully bidirectional analog signal flow on all COM_, NO_, and NC_ pins. The CMOS transmission-gate architecture imposes no inherent directionality: signals may enter through COM1 and exit via NO1, or vice versa, with identical on-resistance and distortion performance. This enables flexible use in both source-selection and load-driving configurations without redesigning signal paths.
How does the logic polarity of MAX4636EUB+T differ from MAX4635EUB+T?
The MAX4636EUB+T uses noninverting logic: a high-level input on IN1 or IN2 connects the corresponding NO_ terminal to COM_. In contrast, the MAX4635EUB+T uses inverted logic-high input connects NC_ to COM_. This difference is explicit in the datasheet's pin configuration diagrams and truth tables. Interchanging the two without logic inversion will reverse switch states, causing incorrect signal routing.
Can MAX4636EUB+T operate with a 3.3V supply while accepting 5V logic inputs?
Yes, MAX4636EUB+T logic inputs (IN1, IN2) tolerate voltages up to +5.5V regardless of V+ level. When powered from +3.3V, it correctly interprets 5V TTL/CMOS logic levels without external level shifters. This is confirmed in the "Logic Inputs" section of the datasheet and verified in the +3V supply electrical characteristics table, where VIH is specified at +2.0V minimum-well below 5V.
What is the thermal performance of the µMAX package used in MAX4636EUB+T?
The MAX4636EUB+T in the 10-pin µMAX package has a thermal resistance θJA of 213°C/W (calculated from 330mW max power dissipation at +70°C ambient and 4.7mW/°C derating). At 1mA per channel and 5V supply, typical power dissipation is <1µW-well below thermal limits. The package lacks an exposed pad, so PCB copper area and airflow dominate thermal management in high-density layouts.
