Product details
Overview
MAX4701ETE+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage, dual double-pole/double-throw (DPDT) CMOS analog switch operating from a single +1.8V to +5.5V supply. It features 75Ω max on-resistance at +3V, 35ns turn-on time, rail-to-rail signal handling, and break-before-make switching. It is used in audio/video routing and battery-powered communications circuits where compact size and low-power analog switching are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4701ETE+ datasheet, MAX4701ETE+ pinout, MAX4701ETE+ application, or MAX4701ETE+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed channel matching (≤4Ω), low leakage (≤1nA at +85°C), 250MHz -3dB bandwidth, and compatibility with 1.8V logic inputs when powered from +3V.
Technical Context
The MAX4701ETE+ implements two independent DPDT switches, each controlled by separate digital inputs (IN1/IN2 for Switches 1–2; IN3/IN4 for Switches 3–4). Its CMOS architecture ensures bidirectional signal flow, rail-to-rail analog voltage support (0V to V+), and break-before-make timing (≤1ns at +3V) to prevent momentary shorting during state transitions.
It uses a single positive supply (V+) without requiring a separate logic rail-unlike the MAX4702-and supports 1.8V logic thresholds at +3V operation. On-resistance flatness remains ≤12Ω over the full signal range, and channel-to-channel RON matching is guaranteed ≤4Ω, enabling precision signal routing in multi-channel systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.8V to +5.5V single supply - enables direct integration into 1.8V, 2.7V, 3.3V, and 5V systems without level-shifting. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 75Ω max at +3V - ensures minimal insertion loss and voltage drop for analog signals up to ±20mA. |
| RON Matching | 4Ω max between channels - critical for balanced differential signal paths and matched gain stages. |
| Turn-On/Off Time | tON = 35ns, tOFF = 20ns at +3V - supports high-speed multiplexing in audio, data acquisition, and comms applications. |
| Leakage Current | ±1nA max at +85°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces and battery-critical standby modes. |
| -3dB Bandwidth | 250MHz - supports video, RF sampling, and broadband analog switching without significant attenuation. |
| Off-Isolation | -76dB at 1MHz - suppresses crosstalk between active and inactive channels in dense PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4701ETE+ is housed in a 3mm × 3mm, 16-pin TQFN-EP package with exposed pad connected to GND for thermal and EMI performance.

|---|---|---|
| 1 (NO1) | Analog Switch 1 Normally Open | Connects to COM1 when IN1 = high; bidirectional path for signal routing. |
| 2 (V+) | Positive Supply Input | Single power rail for analog and logic circuitry; must be applied before analog signals. |
| 3 (NC4) | Analog Switch 4 Normally Closed | Connects to COM4 when all control inputs are low; default path for fail-safe routing. |
| 4 (COM4) | Analog Switch 4 Common Terminal | Central node for Switch 4; connects to NO4 or NC4 depending on IN3/IN4 state. |
| 5 (NO4) | Analog Switch 4 Normally Open | Active path for Switch 4 when corresponding control input is asserted. |

| 11 (NC1) | Analog Switch 1 Normally Closed | Provides default signal path for Switch 1; maintains continuity during power-up or logic reset. |
| 12 (COM2) | Analog Switch 2 Common Terminal | Second DPDT common node; supports independent routing of dual analog signals. |
| 13 (IN1, IN2) | Digital Control Inputs (Switches 1 & 2) | Independent logic inputs for first DPDT pair; enable asymmetric switching configurations. |
| 14 (NO2) | Analog Switch 2 Normally Open | Active path for Switch 2; exhibits same RON, flatness, and leakage as NO1–NO4. |
| 15 (NC2) | Analog Switch 2 Normally Closed | Default path for Switch 2; ensures predictable behavior during initialization or fault conditions. |
| 16 (GND) | Ground Reference | Return path for supply current and analog signals; exposed pad must be soldered to GND plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4699ETE+ | Same dual DPDT function but in 4mm × 4mm TQFN; higher RON (85Ω max at +3V) and slower tON (45ns). | Preferred where larger footprint is acceptable and lower cost is prioritized over speed or RON. | Select MAX4699ETE+ only if board space allows 4mm × 4mm and 75Ω RON is not required. |
| ADG732BRUZ | 32-channel SPST switch (not DPDT); 4.5Ω RON at +3V but requires 1.8V logic supply and has higher 10µA supply current. | Suited for high-channel-count scanning, not DPDT signal inversion or path redundancy. | Choose ADG732BRUZ only for large-scale multiplexing where DPDT topology is unnecessary and ultra-low RON outweighs power and topology constraints. |
Compared with MAX4699ETE+, the MAX4701ETE+ delivers tighter RON matching and faster switching in a smaller footprint; versus ADG732BRUZ, it provides native DPDT functionality and lower leakage but trades off channel count and absolute RON minimum.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the MAX4701ETE+?
The MAX4701ETE+ has an absolute maximum supply voltage (V+) of +6V. Operation beyond this rating risks permanent damage. The device is specified for reliable functional operation from +1.8V to +5.5V. At +5V, RON drops to 40Ω max and switching speeds improve to tON = 18ns, making +5V optimal for performance-critical applications where power budget allows.
Does the MAX4701ETE+ require a separate logic supply voltage (VL)?
No, the MAX4701ETE+ does not require a separate VL supply. Unlike the MAX4702ETE+, it integrates logic-level translation directly and accepts 1.8V-compatible inputs when operated from a +3V supply. Its digital inputs (IN1–IN4) are referenced to V+ and GND only - simplifying power design and reducing BOM count compared to quad SPDT variants needing VL.
What is the guaranteed on-resistance matching between channels in the MAX4701ETE+?
The MAX4701ETE+ guarantees ΔRON ≤ 4Ω between any two channels at +2.7V to +3.3V supply and over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range. This specification ensures consistent gain, attenuation, and phase response across switched paths - critical for differential signaling, automatic gain control loops, and precision sensor multiplexing where mismatch-induced errors must stay below 1%.
Can the MAX4701ETE+ handle negative analog signals?
No, the MAX4701ETE+ cannot handle negative analog signals relative to GND. Its analog signal range is strictly 0V to V+, with absolute maximum ratings limiting COM_, NO_, and NC_ pins to -0.3V minimum. For bipolar signal routing, external clamping diodes or a dual-supply analog switch (e.g., MAX308) must be used - the MAX4701ETE+ is designed exclusively for single-supply, rail-to-rail positive-only signal paths.
Is the exposed pad (EP) on the MAX4701ETE+ package required to be connected to ground?
Yes, the exposed pad (EP) on the MAX4701ETE+ 3mm × 3mm TQFN package must be soldered to a GND plane. Maxim specifies this connection for both thermal dissipation (derating: 20.8mW/°C above +70°C) and EMI suppression. Leaving EP floating degrades thermal performance, increases junction temperature, and may cause instability or reduced reliability - especially under sustained 20mA per channel operation.
