Product details
Overview
MAX4713EPE from Maxim Integrated is a fault-protected, quad SPST analog switch with two normally open (NO) and two normally closed (NC) channels, 25Ω max on-resistance at +25°C, ±12V fault protection with power off, and rail-to-rail signal handling across ±2.7V to ±5.5V or +2.7V to +11V supplies. It enables robust signal routing in battery-operated test equipment where input overvoltage transients must not damage downstream circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4713EPE datasheet, MAX4713EPE pinout, MAX4713EPE application, or MAX4713EPE equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, fault-protection behavior under single/dual supply, break-before-make timing for channel switching, and real-world design implications of its clamped output during overvoltage events.
Technical Context
The MAX4713EPE integrates parallel N- and P-channel FETs per channel to achieve low RON and flat on-resistance vs. signal voltage. Its dual comparator architecture continuously monitors NO_/NC_ pins against V+ and V−, triggering clamp FETs (P2/N2) within 200ns when input exceeds rails by ~150mV.
During fault conditions, COM_ is actively clamped to the appropriate supply rail (V+ for positive faults, V− for negative), sourcing/sinking up to ±15mA. With power off, NO_/NC_ terminals remain high-impedance up to ±12V, while COM_ retains no fault protection and relies on external diode limiting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (RON) | 25Ω max at +25°C, ±4.5V supplies - ensures minimal signal attenuation and thermal drift in precision analog paths. |
| On-resistance match | 1Ω max between channels - critical for matched gain/phase in differential or multi-path signal routing. |
| Fault trip threshold | VNO/VNC = V+ + 0.4V or V− − 0.4V - defines precise overvoltage detection margin before clamp activation. |
| Break-before-make delay | 5ns typ (dual supply), 30ns typ (+5V) - guarantees no momentary short between NO and NC paths during switching. |
| Supply range | +2.7V to +11V single or ±2.7V to ±5.5V dual - supports wide input voltage flexibility in portable and industrial systems. |
| Logic compatibility | TTL/CMOS with VIH = 2.4V, VIL = 0.8V at +5V - eliminates level-shifting in mixed-voltage control interfaces. |
| Charge injection | ±1pC max - minimizes voltage glitch on high-impedance nodes (e.g., sample-and-hold inputs). |
Pinout & Package
MAX4713EPE uses a 16-pin Plastic DIP package (0.300" width), rated for -40°C to +85°C operation. Pin layout matches industry-standard MAX391–MAX393 footprints for drop-in replacement in legacy designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1–IN4 (Pins 1, 8, 9, 16) | Logic control inputs | Fault-protected to (V− + 12V); drive internal switches and enable/disable fault comparators. |
| COM1–COM4 (Pins 2, 7, 10, 15) | Analog common terminals | Unprotected signal path outputs; must stay within V− to V+ to avoid ESD diode conduction. |
| NO1, NO4 (Pins 3, 6) | Normally open analog inputs | Fault-protected up to ±12V (power off) or ±7V (±5V supplies); connect to active signal sources. |
| NC2, NC3 (Pins 11, 14) | Normally closed analog inputs | Fault-protected same as NO pins; provide default signal path when logic input is low. |
| V+ (Pin 13) | Positive supply rail | Accepts +2.7V to +11V; powers internal logic, comparators, and clamp FETs. |
| V− (Pin 4) | Negative supply rail | Accepts −2.7V to −5.5V or GND for single-supply use; reference for negative fault detection. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Ground reference | System ground return; required for single-supply operation and logic threshold stability. |
| N.C. (Pin 12) | No connection | Not internally bonded; leave unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Supports analog signals from V− to V+ without distortion or clipping in normal operation. |
| Active output clamping during fault | COM_ is driven to V+ or V− within 200ns, limiting downstream voltage excursion to safe levels. |
| Power-off fault protection | NO_/NC_ pins withstand ±12V even with V+/V− unpowered - essential for hot-swap or maintenance scenarios. |
| Matched channel performance | ≤1Ω RON mismatch ensures consistent gain/attenuation across all four SPST paths. |
| Break-before-make switching | Guaranteed 5ns minimum dead time prevents cross-conduction between NO and NC paths in MAX4713EPE's hybrid configuration. |
Applications
| Automated Test Equipment (ATE) | Battery-Powered Data Acquisition |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4712EPE | Four NO-only channels; identical fault protection, RON, and timing specs. | Lacks NC functionality - unsuitable where default-closed signal path is required. | Select when all four paths must be controlled active-high with no default connection. |
| ADG1412BRUZ | 4-channel, NO-only, 1.8Ω RON max, but no fault protection beyond ±0.3V beyond rails. | Requires external ±15V TVS and series resistors for equivalent transient robustness. | Choose only if ultra-low RON dominates over fault resilience and board space is constrained. |
Compared with MAX4712EPE and ADG1412BRUZ, the MAX4713EPE uniquely provides hybrid NO/NC topology with integrated ±12V fault tolerance - enabling fail-safe signal routing without added protection circuitry or layout complexity.

FAQ
What is the maximum fault voltage the MAX4713EPE can withstand on NO_/NC_ pins with power removed?
The MAX4713EPE guarantees ±12V fault protection on NO_ and NC_ pins even when V+ and V− are unpowered. This is achieved through internal high-impedance fault-sensing circuitry that remains active without supply bias, making it ideal for hot-swap or maintenance scenarios where inputs may be exposed to transients before power-up. The MAX4713EPE datasheet specifies this limit under "Fault-Protected Analog Signal Range (Power Off)" in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does the MAX4713EPE support single-supply operation, and what is the minimum supply voltage?
Yes, the MAX4713EPE operates from a single +2.7V to +11V supply with V− tied to GND. At +2.7V, logic thresholds shift to VIH = 2.0V and VIL = 0.6V to maintain TTL/CMOS compatibility. The device maintains full fault protection and rail-to-rail analog signal handling down to this minimum, though RON increases to 100Ω max at +2.7V. This capability makes the MAX4713EPE suitable for ultra-low-power battery systems.
How does the MAX4713EPE handle simultaneous faults on multiple channels?
The MAX4713EPE independently monitors each NO_ and NC_ pin with dedicated comparators, so faults on one channel do not affect others. When a fault occurs, only the affected channel's FETs disable and its COM_ clamps to the relevant supply rail; remaining channels continue normal operation. This channel-level autonomy ensures signal integrity in multi-path systems like ATE multiplexers, where one sensor fault must not disrupt measurement of others.
What is the purpose of the break-before-make timing in the MAX4713EPE, and how is it implemented?
The MAX4713EPE enforces a guaranteed 5ns minimum break-before-make (BBM) interval between NO and NC paths of the same channel to prevent momentary short-circuits during switching. This is implemented via internal logic that delays NC turn-on until NO is fully off, verified across temperature and supply voltage. BBM timing is explicitly characterized in the Electrical Characteristics table for dual-supply conditions and is critical in applications like redundant signal selection where cross-conduction could cause system failure.
Why is the COM_ pin not fault-protected, and what design precautions are required?
The COM_ pin lacks internal fault protection because it connects directly to the analog signal path without comparator monitoring. Exceeding V+ or V− on COM_ forward-biases internal ESD diodes, risking permanent damage if current exceeds ±40mA. Designers must ensure external circuitry limits COM_ voltage to the supply rails - for example, using series resistors or external clamps - especially in bidirectional signal applications. This limitation is clearly stated in Note 1 of the MAX4713EPE datasheet's Absolute Maximum Ratings section.
