Product details
Overview
MAX4696EBT-T from Maxim Integrated is a single-pole/single-throw (SPST), normally open analog switch optimized for low-voltage signal routing in space-constrained portable systems. It operates from a single +2.0V to +5.5V supply, delivers 35Ω max on-resistance at +3V, 2Ω max RON matching, 13Ω max RON flatness, and achieves 80ns max turn-on time - enabling high-fidelity audio/video switching in battery-powered MP3 players and cellular handsets.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4696EBT-T datasheet, MAX4696EBT-T pinout, MAX4696EBT-T application, or MAX4696EBT-T equivalent, this device is selected for rail-to-rail signal handling, ultra-low leakage (1nA max at +25°C), UCSP package footprint (1.50mm × 1.02mm), and guaranteed 1.8V logic compatibility with +2.7V to +3.3V supplies - critical for low-power embedded interface design.
Technical Context
The MAX4696EBT-T implements a CMOS transmission-gate topology with rail-to-rail analog signal capability across its full supply range (GND to V+). Its digital control input (IN) accepts 1.8V logic thresholds when powered from +2.7V to +3.3V and TTL/CMOS levels up to +5.5V, supporting mixed-voltage system interfacing without level shifters.
As a normally open SPST switch, it exhibits bidirectional conduction between COM and NO terminals only when IN is high. Its UCSP package uses six solder bumps in a 3×2 array with 0.5mm pitch, requiring precise PCB pad layout per Maxim's wafer-level packaging guidelines to ensure mechanical reliability and thermal performance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +2.0V to +5.5V single supply - supports direct integration into 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V logic domains without external regulators. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 35Ω max at +3V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in audio path and sensor interface applications. |
| RON Matching | 2Ω max between channels - critical for matched gain paths in differential or dual-channel signal routing. |
| Turn-On/Off Time | tON = 80ns max, tOFF = 25ns max - enables fast channel selection in multi-source audio/video multiplexing. |
| Leakage Current | 1nA max at +25°C - preserves battery life and prevents DC offset drift in high-impedance sensor front-ends. |
| -3dB Bandwidth | >200MHz - supports clean switching of composite video, USB 1.1, and baseband RF signals without distortion. |
| Logic Compatibility | 1.8V CMOS compatible at +2.7V–+3.3V supply - eliminates need for external logic-level translators in modern low-voltage SoC interfaces. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4696EBT-T is housed in a 6-bump, 0.5mm-pitch chip-scale package (UCSP™) measuring 1.50mm × 1.02mm. This wafer-level package minimizes PCB area and parasitic inductance, supporting high-frequency signal integrity in compact portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| B1 | V+ | Positive supply input - must be applied before analog signals to prevent latch-up; absolute max +6V. |
| B2 | IN | Digital control input - active-high logic; accepts 0V to +5.5V regardless of V+, enabling flexible host interface. |
| B3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - requires low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into analog path. |
| A1 | NO | Normally open analog terminal - connects to COM only when IN = high; bidirectional signal path. |
| A2 | COM | Common analog terminal - serves as input or output depending on signal direction; rail-to-rail capable. |
| A3 | - | No internal connection - unused bump; must be left unconnected or grounded per PCB layout best practices. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-Rail® Signal Handling | Supports analog signals from GND to V+ without clipping - essential for full-swing audio and sensor outputs. |
| Low On-Resistance Flatness | 13Ω max variation over full signal range - maintains consistent gain and linearity across voltage swing. |
| Ultra-Low Charge Injection | 8pC typical - minimizes voltage glitches at COM during switching, critical for precision ADC front-ends. |
| High Off-Isolation | -75dB at 100kHz - suppresses crosstalk between inactive channels in multi-signal routing applications. |
| UCSP Footprint | 1.50mm × 1.02mm area - reduces PCB real estate by >70% vs. comparable SC70 or SOT-23 packages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TS5A23157DCKR | 3.3V-only supply range (+1.65V to +3.6V); 0.9Ω lower RON at 3V but higher 10nA leakage. | Optimized for 3.3V-only systems; lacks +5V operation and rail-to-rail signal range beyond V+ − 0.3V. | Select when operating exclusively at 3.3V and lowest possible RON is prioritized over wide supply flexibility. |
| ADG801BRMZ-REEL7 | Higher 0.5pC charge injection; 0.5Ω better RON matching (1.5Ω max); same UCSP footprint but different bump layout. | Targeted at precision instrumentation; lacks break-before-make support and has tighter thermal derating limits. | Prefer for high-accuracy data acquisition where charge injection dominates error budget over general-purpose routing. |
Compared with TS5A23157DCKR and ADG801BRMZ-REEL7, the MAX4696EBT-T uniquely combines +2.0V to +5.5V operation, rail-to-rail signal handling, and 1nA leakage - making it the only choice for battery-powered systems requiring dynamic voltage scaling and long standby life.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the MAX4696EBT-T?
The MAX4696EBT-T has an absolute maximum supply voltage (V+) of +6V. Operation above this level risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range is +2.0V to +5.5V, with guaranteed performance across that span. At +5.5V, RON drops to 20Ω max, improving signal fidelity in higher-voltage systems while maintaining 1nA leakage at +25°C.
Does the MAX4696EBT-T support rail-to-rail analog signal operation?
Yes, the MAX4696EBT-T supports true rail-to-rail analog signal handling - signals from GND to V+ pass through the switch with minimal distortion or clipping. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Analog Signal Range" (0 to V+), and validated by typical RON vs. VCOM curves showing stable resistance across the full voltage range at +3V and +5V supplies.
What is the function of the A3 bump on the MAX4696EBT-T UCSP package?
The A3 bump on the MAX4696EBT-T is a no-connect (NC) terminal - it has no internal connection to silicon and serves only as a mechanical alignment or thermal relief feature. Per Maxim's UCSP guidelines, A3 should remain unconnected on the PCB; grounding it is permissible but provides no electrical benefit and may risk solder bridging in fine-pitch assembly.
How does the MAX4696EBT-T achieve 1.8V logic compatibility while operating from a +2.7V supply?
The MAX4696EBT-T achieves 1.8V logic compatibility through internally trimmed input threshold voltages: VIH = +1.4V min and VIL = +0.5V max at +2.7V supply. This allows direct interfacing with 1.8V CMOS outputs without level shifters. The input structure tolerates up to +5.5V on IN regardless of V+, enabling robust mixed-voltage system integration.
Can the MAX4696EBT-T be used in audio line-level switching applications?
Yes, the MAX4696EBT-T is qualified for audio line-level switching: its >200MHz -3dB bandwidth exceeds CD-quality (20Hz–20kHz) and MP3 playback requirements; THD is 0.014% at 2Vp-p; and crosstalk is not specified for the MAX4696 (single-channel SPST), eliminating inter-channel interference concerns. Its 35Ω RON introduces negligible loss in 10kΩ load scenarios typical of line drivers.
