Product details
Overview
MAX4713ESE+ from Maxim Integrated is a fault-protected, quad SPST analog switch with two normally open (NO) and two normally closed (NC) channels in a 16-pin narrow SO package. It delivers rail-to-rail signal handling, ≤25Ω on-resistance at +25°C, ±12V fault protection with power off, and operates from single +2.7V to +11V or dual ±2.7V to ±5.5V supplies. It is used in avionics signal routing where input overvoltage transients must not damage downstream circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4713ESE+ datasheet, MAX4713ESE+ pinout, MAX4713ESE+ application, or MAX4713ESE+ equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, fault-protection behavior under single/dual supply, break-before-make timing for channel switching, real-world leakage current limits, and validated alternatives for redundant system design.
Technical Context
The MAX4713ESE+ integrates parallel N- and P-channel FETs per channel to achieve low RON and rail-to-rail conduction. Its dual comparator-based fault-sensing architecture detects NO_/NC_ voltage excursions beyond V+ or V− by ~150mV, disabling the main switch and activating clamp FETs to limit COM_ to the appropriate supply rail.
Unlike standard analog switches, it maintains fault protection with zero supply voltage (±12V absolute max), supports asymmetric dual supplies up to 11V total, and features TTL/CMOS-compatible logic inputs across its full supply range - including VIH = 2.0V/VIL = 0.6V at +2.7V operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (RON) | 25Ω max at +25°C, +4.5V/–4.5V supplies - ensures minimal signal attenuation in precision sensor routing |
| RON match between channels | 1Ω max - critical for matched gain paths in differential or multi-channel data acquisition |
| Fault protection range (power off) | ±12V on NO_/NC_ pins - enables safe hot-plug or ESD-prone interface without external clamping |
| Turn-on/off time | tON < 125ns, tOFF < 80ns at ±4.5V - supports high-speed multiplexing in test equipment |
| Break-before-make delay | 5ns typical (MAX4713 only) - prevents momentary shorting during channel reconfiguration in backup systems |
| Supply range | +2.7V to +11V single or ±2.7V to ±5.5V dual - accommodates battery-operated and industrial rail-flexible designs |
| Logic compatibility | VIH = 2.4V / VIL = 0.8V (±4.5V/+4.5V–11V); VIH = 2.0V / VIL = 0.6V (+2.7V) - ensures reliable control from microcontrollers across voltage domains |
Pinout & Package
MAX4713ESE+ uses a 16-pin narrow SO (Small Outline) package with 1.27mm pitch, rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8, 9, 16 | IN1–IN4 | Fault-protected logic inputs; tolerate up to (V− + 12V); drive internal switch control and fault comparators |
| 2, 7, 10, 15 | COM1–COM4 | Analog common terminals; not fault-protected - must remain within V− to V+ to avoid ESD diode conduction |
| 3, 6 | NO1, NO4 | Fault-protected normally open analog inputs; clamp to V+ or V− during overvoltage faults |
| 11, 14 | NC2, NC3 | Fault-protected normally closed analog inputs; same clamping behavior as NO pins |
| 4 | V− | Negative supply input; connect to GND for single-supply operation |
| 5 | GND | Ground reference for logic and substrate; decoupling required near pin |
| 12 | N.C. | No internal connection - leave unconnected |
| 13 | V+ | Positive supply input; powers analog core, logic, and clamp FETs |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fault-protected NO_/NC_ inputs | Withstands ±12V transients even with V+ and V− disconnected - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in field-deployed systems |
| Rail-to-rail signal handling | Passes signals from V− to V+ without distortion or clipping - essential for full-scale ADC/DAC interfacing |
| Output clamping during fault | COM_ actively clamped to V+ or V− (not floating) - prevents latch-up or damage to connected FPGA/ASIC I/O |
| Pin-compatible with MAX391/392/393 | Drop-in replacement for legacy non-fault-protected switches - enables reliability upgrade without PCB redesign |
| Break-before-make switching | Guaranteed 5ns minimum dead time between NO and NC channel activation - avoids cross-conduction in redundant path selection |
Applications
| Avionics Signal Routing | Battery-Operated Test Equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4712ESE+ | Four normally open (NO) channels only - no NC functionality; identical RON, fault protection, and timing specs | Suitable when all four paths require active-high signal routing without default continuity | Select MAX4712ESE+ if system design requires uniform NO behavior and does not rely on fail-safe NC paths. |
| ADG1412BRUZ | Quad SPST, 1.8Ω RON, no fault protection, 12V max supply, 5.5V logic compatible - higher performance but no overvoltage resilience | Used in lab-grade instrumentation where signal integrity outweighs field robustness | Choose ADG1412BRUZ only when fault protection is handled externally and ultra-low RON is mandatory. |
Compared with MAX4712ESE+, MAX4713ESE+ adds NC functionality for fail-safe signal continuity; compared with ADG1412BRUZ, it trades lower RON for integrated ±12V fault immunity - making it uniquely suited for unattended or safety-critical deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum fault voltage the MAX4713ESE+ can withstand with power removed?
The MAX4713ESE+ guarantees ±12V fault protection on NO_ and NC_ pins even when V+ and V− are disconnected. This is achieved through internal high-impedance fault-sensing circuitry that remains active without supply bias. The COM_ pins are not fault-protected and must stay within V− to V+ at all times - exceeding those rails risks ESD diode conduction and potential damage. This capability makes MAX4713ESE+ ideal for hot-swap interfaces and field-replaceable modules.
How does the MAX4713ESE+ behave during a positive fault condition on an NO pin?
When an NO pin exceeds V+ by approximately 150mV, the internal high-fault comparator triggers, turning off the main N1/P1 FETs and enabling clamp FET P2. This clamps the COM_ output to V+, limiting voltage excursion and sourcing current from V+ to the load. The NO pin becomes high-impedance regardless of logic state. Recovery occurs within 700ns after the input returns within rails - a fixed delay independent of fault amplitude, confirmed in the MAX4713ESE+ datasheet Figure 16.
Can the MAX4713ESE+ operate from a +3.3V single supply, and what are the key trade-offs?
Yes, the MAX4713ESE+ supports +3.3V single supply (within +2.7V to +11V range). At +3.3V, RON increases to 75Ω max (vs. 25Ω at ±4.5V), tON/tOFF slow to 500ns/225ns, and logic thresholds shift to VIH = 2.0V/VIL = 0.6V. However, fault protection remains fully functional: ±12V tolerance with power off and +12V/–9V protection with +3V supply are preserved. This makes it viable for low-power portable designs where robustness outweighs speed.
What is the purpose of the N.C. pin (pin 12) on the MAX4713ESE+?
Pin 12 on the MAX4713ESE+ is designated N.C. (No Connection) and is not internally bonded or connected to any circuit node. It must be left unconnected on the PCB - neither tied to ground, V+, nor routed. This pin exists for mechanical symmetry and package compatibility with other members of the MAX471x family (e.g., MAX4711/MAX4712) and does not affect electrical operation. Soldering or routing to this pin may cause mechanical stress or unintended coupling.
How does the MAX4713ESE+ differ from the MAX393 in terms of fault protection and pin compatibility?
The MAX4713ESE+ shares identical pinout and footprint with the MAX393, enabling drop-in replacement on existing PCBs. However, unlike the MAX393, the MAX4713ESE+ adds comprehensive fault protection: NO_/NC_ pins tolerate ±12V transients with power off and clamp COM_ to supply rails during overvoltage events. The MAX393 has no such protection and will suffer latch-up or damage under the same conditions. Thus, MAX4713ESE+ upgrades system reliability without layout changes - provided COM_ connections remain within supply rails.
