Product details
Overview
MAX4691EBE+T from Maxim Integrated is an 8-channel analog multiplexer IC configured as a single-pole, 8-throw (SP8T) switch with rail-to-rail signal handling, 70Ω max on-resistance at +2.7V supply, guaranteed break-before-make timing (2ns), and 16-bump UCSP package (2mm × 2mm). It operates from a single +2V to +11V supply or dual ±2V to ±5.5V supplies and is used in low-voltage audio routing and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4691EBE+T datasheet, MAX4691EBE+T pinout, MAX4691EBE+T application, or MAX4691EBE+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, UCSP package layout, real-world use cases in portable signal switching, and validated alternative parts for design flexibility and supply continuity.
Technical Context
The MAX4691EBE+T implements a CMOS transmission-gate architecture with independent logic-level translators driving analog switches directly from V+ and V− rails. Its address decoding uses three digital inputs (A/B/C) to select one of eight bidirectional analog paths between common X and inputs X0–X7.
It guarantees break-before-make operation to prevent signal shorting during channel transitions, supports 1.8V logic compatibility at +3V supply, and maintains rail-to-rail analog signal range (0V to V+ or V− to V+) without ground reference-enabling true bipolar or single-supply operation in precision signal chains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Configuration | 8:1 analog multiplexer (SP8T), bidirectional, single-ended |
| Supply Range | +2V to +11V single supply or ±2V to ±5.5V dual supply - enables direct interfacing with Li-ion, 3.3V, and ±5V systems |
| On-Resistance (max) | 70Ω at +2.7V - ensures minimal voltage drop and gain error in sensor/ADC front-ends |
| On-Resistance Match | 6Ω max across channels at +2.7V - critical for multi-channel ratiometric measurements |
| Leakage Current (max) | ±20nA at +85°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance pH or thermocouple circuits |
| Enable Turn-On Time | 350ns max at -40°C to +85°C - supports fast channel scanning in data acquisition |
| Off-Isolation | -70dB at 100kHz - suppresses crosstalk between unused channels in audio routing |
Pinout & Package
MAX4691EBE+T is housed in a 16-bump, 0.5mm-pitch UCSP package measuring 2mm × 2mm, with solder bumps arranged in a 4×4 grid. The package has no exposed pad and requires controlled assembly per Maxim's UCSP reliability guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| X | Analog common terminal | Output node shared by all 8 switched paths; connects to ADC input or amplifier summing junction |
| X0–X7 | Analog input terminals | Eight independent bidirectional analog inputs; routed to X only when selected by A/B/C address |
| A, B, C | Digital address inputs | 3-bit binary control (A = LSB) selecting one of eight channels; 1.8V-compatible at +3V supply |
| EN | Digital enable input | Active-high global disable: drives all switches open when high, overriding A/B/C state |
| V+ | Positive supply | Powers analog switches and internal logic; sets upper analog signal limit (V+ to V− range) |
| V− | Negative supply | Required for dual-supply operation; tied to GND for single-supply mode; sets lower analog limit |
| GND | Digital ground reference | Reference for EN, A/B/C logic levels only; analog signals are fully floating between V+ and V− |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports analog signals from V− to V+ without clipping - essential for ±5V op-amp outputs or unipolar 0–5V sensors |
| Guaranteed break-before-make | 2ns minimum dead time prevents momentary shorting between channels during address changes |
| Low 1nA leakage (typ) | Minimizes offset drift in high-Z medical electrode interfaces or precision reference switching |
| 1.8V logic compatibility | Direct interface with modern ultra-low-power MCUs (e.g., ARM Cortex-M0+) without level shifters |
| UCSP footprint reduction | 2mm × 2mm area saves >70% board space vs. comparable QFN - critical for wearable and IoT edge nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG1408BCPZ-REEL7 | 8:1 mux in 20-lead LFCSP (4mm × 4mm); 4.7Ω RON at +5V but requires ≥±4.5V dual supply or +12V single supply | Better RON and bandwidth, but larger footprint and higher minimum supply voltage | Select for high-speed (>10MHz) or low-RON precision applications where board space and supply headroom allow |
| TMUX1308RTER | 8:1 mux in 16-pin WQFN (3.5mm × 3.5mm); 120Ω RON at +3.3V; no dual-supply support; 1.2V logic compatible | Smaller logic voltage range, higher RON, but superior 1.2V MCU compatibility and lower cost | Select for cost-sensitive, single-supply 1.8V/3.3V systems where RON < 100Ω is acceptable |
Compared with ADG1408BCPZ-REEL7 and TMUX1308RTER, MAX4691EBE+T uniquely balances ultra-compact UCSP packaging, dual-supply flexibility, and guaranteed break-before-make - making it optimal for space-constrained, mixed-rail portable instrumentation where channel integrity is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by the MAX4691EBE+T?
The MAX4691EBE+T supports rail-to-rail analog signals from V− to V+. When operated from a single +3.3V supply (V− = GND), the range is 0V to +3.3V. With dual ±5V supplies, it handles signals from -5V to +5V. This eliminates level-shifting requirements in mixed-supply systems and preserves signal fidelity in precision sensor interfaces.
Does the MAX4691EBE+T require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its digital control pins?
No, the MAX4691EBE+T does not require external biasing on A, B, C, or EN pins. Its digital inputs have built-in leakage-limited structure with ±1µA max input current, and logic thresholds (VIH = 1.4V, VIL = 0.4V at +3V supply) are designed for direct connection to standard GPIOs. Pull resistors are unnecessary unless system-level noise immunity mandates them.
Can the MAX4691EBE+T be used in a single-supply configuration with V− left unconnected?
No - V− must be explicitly tied to GND in single-supply operation. Leaving V− floating violates absolute maximum ratings and risks latch-up or undefined switching behavior. The datasheet mandates V− = GND for +2V to +11V single-supply use, and the internal ESD diodes rely on this connection for proper biasing and leakage control.
How does the UCSP package of the MAX4691EBE+T impact PCB layout and thermal design?
The 16-bump UCSP package (2mm × 2mm) eliminates leads and reduces thermal resistance compared to QFN, but requires strict adherence to Maxim's assembly guidelines: solder mask-defined pads, controlled reflow profile, and board material compatibility. Thermal dissipation is limited to 659mW at +70°C ambient, so high-current analog paths (>10mA) need careful IR-drop analysis despite low RON.
Is the MAX4691EBE+T pin-compatible with other members of the MAX4691–MAX4694 family?
No - MAX4691EBE+T is not pin-compatible with MAX4692EBE+T, MAX4693EBE+T, or MAX4694EBE+T. Although all share the same 16-bump UCSP footprint, their pin functions differ significantly: MAX4691 uses A/B/C address lines and X0–X7 inputs, while MAX4692 has dual 4:1 mux structure (X0–X3/Y0–Y3), and MAX4693/MAX4694 implement SPDT topologies with distinct control and I/O assignments.
