Product details
Overview
MAX4655EUA+ from Maxim Integrated is a normally closed (NC), single-pole/single-throw (SPST), high-current CMOS analog switch in an 8-pin µMAX package. It delivers ≤10Ω on-resistance at ±15V supplies, supports ±300mA continuous/±400mA peak switching current, and operates from ±4.5V to ±20V dual supplies or +9V to +40V single supply - ideal for relay replacement in test equipment and audio signal routing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4655EUA+ datasheet, MAX4655EUA+ pinout, MAX4655EUA+ application, or MAX4655EUA+ equivalent, key selection criteria include NC logic state, rail-to-rail analog signal handling, 1nA max off-leakage at +25°C, 210MHz -3dB bandwidth, and compatibility with DG417/DG418 layouts in space-constrained industrial and communications systems.
Technical Context
The MAX4655EUA+ implements a parallel N-channel/P-channel MOSFET switch architecture with proprietary body-drive sensing to eliminate voltage-drop limitations typical of standard CMOS switches. This enables stable on-resistance and low leakage across its full ±40V V+–V− range without parasitic diode conduction.
It accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible digital control (VIH = 2.4V, VIL = 0.8V) and requires no VL bias rail. Signal paths support bidirectional rail-to-rail operation, with 1Ω max RON flatness over ±10V input range and 25pF off-capacitance for minimal crosstalk in high-frequency audio and xDSL applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switch Type | SPST, normally closed (NC) - COM connected to NC when IN = 0V |
| On-Resistance (RON) | ≤10Ω at ±15V supplies - ensures <15mV drop at 300mA load, critical for precision analog routing |
| Continuous Current | ±300mA - supports high-power audio loads and redundant system switching without external buffering |
| Off-Leakage Current | ≤1nA at TA = +25°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor or measurement circuits |
| -3dB Bandwidth | 210MHz - maintains fidelity for broadband signals up to 100MHz in communication front-ends |
| Supply Range | ±4.5V to ±20V dual or +9V to +40V single - enables flexible biasing in mixed-signal industrial power rails |
| Turn-On/Off Time | 110ns/75ns typical - meets timing requirements for fast-switching test instrumentation and multiplexed data acquisition |
Pinout & Package
MAX4655EUA+ uses an 8-pin µMAX package (3.0mm × 3.0mm, 0.65mm pitch) with exposed paddle (EP) for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is COM; pins 2 and 5 are no-connect; pin 3 is GND; pin 4 is V+; pin 6 is digital control input (IN); pin 7 is V−; pin 8 is NC (normally closed terminal); EP must be connected to V+.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - COM | Analog Switch Common | Central node connecting to NC when switch is de-energized; bidirectional signal path |
| 2, 5 - N.C. | No Internal Connection | Unbonded pads - must remain unconnected per datasheet; no internal circuitry |
| 3 - GND | Ground Reference | Return path for digital control and substrate bias; ties to system ground plane |
| 4 - V+ | Positive Supply Input | Supplies both analog switch core and control logic; EP must connect here for thermal performance |
| 6 - IN | Digital Control Input | TTL/CMOS-compatible logic input; low = NC closed, high = NC open (inverted logic sense) |
| 7 - V− | Negative Supply Input | Completes dual-supply rail; sets lower analog signal limit; not required if single-supply used |
| 8 - NC | Normally Closed Terminal | Connected to COM when IN = 0V; open-circuit when IN = high; carries full switched current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports analog inputs from V− to V+ without clipping - essential for ±15V op-amp interfaces and audio line-level routing |
| 1Ω max RON flatness | Ensures consistent gain and THD across full signal swing - critical for high-fidelity audio and precision instrumentation |
| No VL bias required | Eliminates need for auxiliary logic supply - simplifies PCB layout and reduces BOM count in embedded systems |
| Pin compatibility with DG417/DG418 | Enables drop-in upgrade path from legacy switches without layout changes - accelerates design reuse and qualification |
| Exposed paddle thermal interface | Improves power dissipation capability to 825mW at +70°C - sustains 300mA continuous current in compact µMAX footprint |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4656EUA+ | Same package and pinout, but normally open (NO) logic state - COM disconnected when IN = 0V | Suitable where default-open safety behavior is required (e.g., power sequencing, fault isolation) | Select MAX4656EUA+ only when NC functionality is not needed; identical electrical specs otherwise |
| DG417LN+ | Legacy 8-pin SOIC device; 35Ω max RON at ±15V; 100mA continuous rating; no exposed paddle | Limited to lower-current, less thermally demanding applications; lacks µMAX size and modern leakage/bandwidth | Choose DG417LN+ only for legacy board refreshes where pin compatibility is mandatory and performance margins allow |
Compared with MAX4656EUA+, the MAX4655EUA+ provides fail-safe continuity during control loss, while DG417LN+ trades bandwidth and leakage performance for broader legacy availability - making MAX4655EUA+ optimal for new designs prioritizing reliability, speed, and thermal efficiency in NC configurations.

FAQ
What is the logic configuration of the MAX4655EUA+?
The MAX4655EUA+ is a normally closed (NC) SPST analog switch: when the IN pin is logic low (≤0.8V), the COM and NC terminals are connected; when IN is logic high (≥2.4V), the path opens. This fail-safe behavior ensures continuity during power loss or control failure - a key distinction from the NO MAX4656EUA+ variant.
Can the MAX4655EUA+ operate from a single supply?
Yes, the MAX4655EUA+ supports single-supply operation from +9V to +40V (V− tied to GND). Its rail-to-rail analog signal range extends from GND to V+, and all specifications - including ≤10Ω RON and ±300mA current - are validated under +12V single-supply conditions per the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table.
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between V+ and V− for the MAX4655EUA+?
The MAX4655EUA+ has an absolute maximum V+–V− rating of +44V. Operation is specified across ±4.5V to ±20V dual supplies, meaning the total differential can reach 40V in normal use. Exceeding +44V risks permanent damage, and asymmetrical supplies (e.g., +24V/–12V) are permitted as long as the 44V limit and individual pin ratings are observed.
How does the exposed paddle (EP) on the MAX4655EUA+ package affect thermal performance?
The exposed paddle on the MAX4655EUA+ µMAX package must be soldered to a V+-connected copper pour to achieve rated thermal performance. With this connection, the device dissipates up to 825mW at +70°C ambient (derating 10.3mW/°C above), enabling sustained ±300mA continuous current - a 2.3× improvement over non-EP variants like SO-8.
Is the MAX4655EUA+ pin-compatible with industry-standard analog switches?
Yes, the MAX4655EUA+ is explicitly pin-compatible with the DG417 and DG418 series in the same 8-pin µMAX footprint. Pin functions match directly: COM (1), GND (3), V+ (4), IN (6), V− (7), NC/NO (8), with pins 2 and 5 as no-connect. This allows direct substitution in existing DG417-based designs without layout modification.
