Product details
Overview
MAX4704EUB+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage, 4:1 analog multiplexer IC operating from a single +1.8V to +5.5V supply, featuring 60Ω max on-resistance at +2.7V, 60ns turn-on time, and break-before-make switching. It routes audio/video or sensor signals in portable battery-powered systems where rail-to-rail signal handling and low charge injection (3pC) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4704EUB+ datasheet, MAX4704EUB+ pinout, MAX4704EUB+ application, or MAX4704EUB+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, µMAX package layout, real-world use cases in cellular phones and data-acquisition systems, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The MAX4704EUB+ implements a CMOS-based 4-channel analog switch matrix controlled by dual address bits (ADDA/ADDB) and an active-low inhibit (INH) input. Its break-before-make architecture prevents momentary shorting between channels during switching transitions, with tBBM guaranteed at 2ns.
It supports rail-to-rail analog signal ranges (0V to V+), maintains <3Ω RON matching across channels, and achieves >200MHz -3dB bandwidth with -90dB crosstalk and -85dB off-isolation at 1MHz - enabling high-fidelity signal routing in audio and communications circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.8V to +5.5V single supply - enables direct interface with 1.8V/2.7V/3.3V/5V logic and analog rails without level shifting. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 60Ω max at +2.7V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision sensor or audio paths. |
| RON Matching | 3Ω max between channels - preserves channel-to-channel signal integrity in differential or multi-path routing. |
| Switching Time | tON = 60ns, tOFF = 20ns at +3V - supports fast multiplexing in data-acquisition and digital control loops. |
| Charge Injection | 3pC max - reduces voltage glitch and settling error when switching DC-coupled or low-frequency analog signals. |
| Crosstalk | -90dB at 1MHz - prevents interference between active and inactive channels in multi-signal routing applications. |
| Off-Isolation | -85dB at 1MHz - blocks leakage from off-channels into sensitive measurement nodes like ADC inputs. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4704EUB+ is housed in a 10-pin µMAX package (3.0mm × 3.0mm, 0.8mm height), optimized for space-constrained portable designs. The exposed pad is not electrically connected; thermal performance relies on PCB ground plane attachment.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | V+ | Positive supply input - must be applied before analog signals to prevent latch-up; absolute max +6V. |
| 2, 8 | N.C. | No internal connection - left unconnected; no routing or grounding required. |
| 3 | NO2 | Analog switch output 2 - bidirectional; connects to COM when selected via ADDA/ADDB = 10. |
| 4 | NO3 | Analog switch output 3 - bidirectional; connects to COM when selected via ADDA/ADDB = 11. |
| 5 | NO1 | Analog switch output 1 - bidirectional; connects to COM when selected via ADDA/ADDB = 01. |
| 6 | INH | Inhibit control - active-high; drives all switches open when logic high, overriding address inputs. |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference - common return for supply, logic, and analog paths; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| 9 | ADDB | Address bit B - MSB of 2-bit decoder; determines channel pair (0–1 or 2–3) when combined with ADDA. |
| 10 | ADDA | Address bit A - LSB of 2-bit decoder; selects individual channel within pair (e.g., ADDA=0/ADDB=0 → NO0). |
| 11 | NO0 | Analog switch output 0 - bidirectional; connects to COM when ADDA/ADDB = 00; used for primary signal path. |
| 12 | COM | Common analog terminal - bidirectional I/O node; routed to one NOx pin per selection; handles rail-to-rail signals. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports analog inputs from GND to V+ without clipping - essential for full-scale battery-voltage monitoring and audio line-level routing. |
| 1.8V logic compatibility | Accepts VIH ≥ 1.4V and VIL ≤ 0.5V at +2.7V supply - interfaces directly with ultra-low-power microcontrollers and FPGAs. |
| Low THD (0.02%) | Minimizes harmonic distortion in audio-frequency paths up to 20kHz - suitable for MP3 player line outputs and headset switching. |
| Guaranteed RON flatness | 5Ω max variation over full signal range - maintains consistent gain and linearity across VCOM, critical for precision instrumentation. |
| Break-before-make timing | 2ns guaranteed tBBM - eliminates channel-to-channel shorting during address transitions, preventing signal corruption in relay-replacement apps. |
Applications
| Cellular Phone Audio Routing | Portable Data-Acquisition Front-End |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4617EUA+ | Single SPST switch, 35Ω RON at +5V, no break-before-make, 10-pin µMAX. | Lacks 4:1 multiplexing and address decoding; suited only for on/off gating, not channel selection. | Select MAX4617EUA+ only when discrete switch control suffices and address logic is handled externally. |
| TMUX1104DCUR | 4:1 mux, 5Ω RON at +5V, 1.08V–5.5V supply, 10-pin VSSOP, no guaranteed tBBM spec. | Lower RON improves accuracy but lacks break-before-make guarantee; higher leakage (±20nA) limits low-current sensor use. | Choose TMUX1104DCUR for cost-sensitive, non-critical routing where sub-10Ω RON outweighs timing safety requirements. |
Compared with MAX4704EUB+, MAX4617EUA+ provides simpler on/off control but no multiplexing capability, while TMUX1104DCUR offers lower on-resistance at the expense of guaranteed break-before-make timing and higher leakage - making MAX4704EUB+ optimal for battery-powered audio and precision data acquisition where signal integrity and switching safety are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the MAX4704EUB+?
The MAX4704EUB+ has an absolute maximum supply voltage (V+) of +6V. Operation beyond this limit risks permanent damage. The device is specified for reliable operation from +1.8V to +5.5V, with on-resistance and switching times characterized at +2.7V, +3.3V, and +5V supplies. Always apply V+ before analog signals to avoid stress on internal protection diodes.
Does the MAX4704EUB+ support rail-to-rail analog signal operation?
Yes, the MAX4704EUB+ supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling - signals from GND to V+ pass through the switch with minimal on-resistance variation. This is confirmed by typical operating characteristics showing RON flatness of ≤5Ω over the full VCOM range at +2.7V and +5V supplies, enabling accurate DC-coupled and audio-frequency signal routing without clipping.
What is the function of the INH pin on the MAX4704EUB+?
The INH (Inhibit) pin on the MAX4704EUB+ is an active-high control that forces all four analog switches into the open (off) state regardless of ADDA/ADDB address inputs. When INH is logic high, COM disconnects from NO0–NO3; when pulled low or grounded, normal address-decoded switching resumes. This enables system-level fault isolation and safe hot-plug sequencing in PCMCIA and modular designs.
How does the MAX4704EUB+ achieve break-before-make switching?
The MAX4704EUB+ guarantees break-before-make (BBM) behavior with a maximum tBBM of 2ns, verified by design and test circuit Figure 4. Internal timing control ensures the previously selected channel opens before the newly addressed channel closes, eliminating momentary shorts between NOx paths. This is critical in relay-replacement and multi-source routing applications where cross-conduction must be avoided.
Is the MAX4704EUB+ compatible with 1.8V logic inputs?
Yes, the MAX4704EUB+ digital inputs (ADDA, ADDB, INH) are +1.8V CMOS logic compatible when operated from a +2.7V to +3.3V supply, with VIH ≥ +1.4V and VIL ≤ +0.5V. This allows direct interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers and FPGAs without level shifters, reducing BOM count and board area in space-constrained portable devices.
