Product details
Overview
MAX4758ETX+ from Maxim Integrated is a quad double-pole/double-throw (DPDT) analog switch IC designed for high-fidelity audio and low-distortion signal routing in portable electronics. It features eight 0.5Ω on-resistance switches, rail-to-rail signal handling from 0V to V+, ±300mA continuous current per channel, and operates from a single +1.8V to +5.5V supply. It is used in speaker-headset switching and audio-signal routing in cellular phones and notebook computers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4758ETX+ datasheet, MAX4758ETX+ pinout, MAX4758ETX+ application, or MAX4758ETX+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package mapping to the 36-pin thin QFN (6mm × 6mm), functional pin roles, real-world audio/data routing use cases, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The MAX4758ETX+ integrates eight matched DPDT analog switches controlled by four logic inputs (INA–IND), each pair sharing one control line. All eight switches are optimized for audio: guaranteed 0.5Ω on-resistance (typ. 0.2Ω flatness, 0.1Ω channel-to-channel matching), 0.03% THD at 20Hz–20kHz, and 102MHz on-channel –3dB bandwidth.
Unlike the MAX4759, the MAX4758ETX+ contains no low-capacitance data switches - all eight channels share identical audio-grade specifications. Its CMOS architecture supports rail-to-rail analog signals, mixed-voltage logic inputs (up to +5.5V), and break-before-make timing (2ns typical) to prevent signal shorting during switching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (RON) | 0.5Ω max at V+ = 2.7V, 10mA - ensures minimal insertion loss and voltage drop in audio paths |
| On-resistance flatness | 0.2Ω max - maintains consistent gain across full analog signal range (0V to V+) |
| Channel matching (ΔRON) | 0.1Ω max - enables precise stereo balance and differential signal integrity |
| Total harmonic distortion | 0.03% typ. at 1VP-P, 20Hz–20kHz - preserves audio fidelity in headset/speaker switching |
| Supply voltage range | +1.8V to +5.5V - supports direct integration with Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V system rails |
| Continuous current rating | ±300mA per NO/NC/COM terminal - handles speaker-level audio drive without external buffering |
| Turn-on/turn-off time | 150ns / 60ns max (RL = 50Ω, CL = 35pF) - enables fast multiplexing in real-time audio routing |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4758ETX+ is housed in a 36-pin thin QFN package (6mm × 6mm, 0.5mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad (EP) connected to GND. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner (A1); EP must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and EMI performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (A1) | NC1 | Normally closed terminal of Switch 1 - connects to COM1 when INA = LOW |
| 2 (B2) | COM2 | Common terminal of Switch 2 - bidirectional signal path shared between NO2 and NC2 |
| 4 (A3) | INA | Digital control input for Switches 1 & 2 - active HIGH enables NO1/NO2, disables NC1/NC2 |
| 5 (C3,D4) | V+ | Positive supply input - bypass with 0.1µF capacitor to GND for noise immunity |
| 23 (C4,D3) | GND | Ground reference - low-impedance return path for analog and digital currents |
| 33 (C1) | NO1 | Normally open terminal of Switch 1 - connects to COM1 when INA = HIGH |
| 36 (B1) | COM1 | Common terminal of Switch 1 - primary signal I/O node for Switch 1 audio path |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal and electrical ground - must be soldered to PCB GND plane for thermal dissipation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail analog signal handling | Supports 0V to V+ input/output swing - eliminates level-shifting circuitry in battery-powered systems |
| Mixed-voltage logic compatibility | IN_ inputs accept up to +5.5V regardless of V+ - enables direct interfacing with 5V microcontrollers on 3.3V or 1.8V supplies |
| Break-before-make timing | 2ns typical - prevents momentary short-circuit between NC and NO paths during state transition |
| Ultra-low THD | 0.03% at 20Hz–20kHz - meets high-fidelity audio requirements for mobile headset and speaker switching |
| Low on-resistance flatness | 0.2Ω max variation over full signal range - ensures linear gain response and minimal harmonic generation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4759ETX+ | Contains four 0.5Ω audio switches + four 25pF/0.2Ω data switches; skew = 0.2ns; lower COM on-capacitance (54pF vs. 284pF) on data channels | Used where mixed audio + USB/SDIO signal routing is required; not suitable if only audio switching is needed | Select MAX4759ETX+ only when dual-domain (audio + data) routing is required; MAX4758ETX+ offers superior audio THD and higher current capability for speaker drive |
| TMUX1574RTWR | Quad SPDT (not DPDT); 0.5Ω RON; 1.8V–5.5V supply; 100MHz bandwidth; no guaranteed THD spec; 100mA current rating | Targeted at general-purpose signal routing, not high-fidelity audio; lacks DPDT topology for true headset/speaker swap | Choose TMUX1574RTWR for cost-sensitive, non-audio applications requiring SPDT topology; MAX4758ETX+ remains preferred for DPDT audio switching with THD and current compliance |
Compared with MAX4759ETX+, MAX4758ETX+ provides higher current drive (±300mA vs. ±100mA on data channels) and better audio linearity (0.03% THD), while TMUX1574RTWR lacks DPDT structure and audio-grade distortion specs - making MAX4758ETX+ the only option meeting full speaker-headset switching requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating per switch terminal in the MAX4758ETX+?
The MAX4758ETX+ supports ±300mA continuous current on all NO_, NC_, and COM_ terminals across its eight switches. This rating applies under TA ≤ +70°C with proper PCB thermal management and is validated per Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Exceeding this limit risks thermal overstress and parametric shift. The MAX4758ETX+'s 0.5Ω on-resistance ensures minimal self-heating at rated current.
Does the MAX4758ETX+ support rail-to-rail analog signal operation?
Yes, the MAX4758ETX+ fully supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling from 0V to V+ on all COM_, NO_, and NC_ terminals. This is explicitly specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Analog Signal Range" and confirmed in the Detailed Description. The device maintains low on-resistance flatness (≤0.2Ω) across the full range, enabling direct interface with DACs, ADCs, and audio amplifiers without level-shifting circuitry.
Is the MAX4758ETX+ pin-compatible with the MAX4759ETX+?
No, the MAX4758ETX+ and MAX4759ETX+ are not pin-compatible. Although both use the same 36-pin thin QFN package, their internal switch configurations differ: MAX4758ETX+ dedicates all eight switches to audio (0.5Ω), while MAX4759ETX+ allocates four to audio and four to low-capacitance data routing (25pF), resulting in different pin functions (e.g., NO5–NO8 serve data paths in MAX4759ETX+ but audio paths in MAX4758ETX+). PCB layout must be redesigned for substitution.
What is the total harmonic distortion (THD) performance of the MAX4758ETX+?
The MAX4758ETX+ delivers 0.03% typical total harmonic distortion at 1VP-P, 20Hz–20kHz with RL = 32Ω, as measured per standard audio test conditions in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is guaranteed over temperature (–40°C to +85°C) and supply voltage (1.8V–5.5V), making it suitable for high-fidelity headset and speaker switching where audible artifacts must be minimized.
How is the exposed thermal pad (EP) of the MAX4758ETX+ intended to be connected?
The exposed pad (EP) of the MAX4758ETX+ must be soldered to a solid PCB ground plane. It serves as both a thermal dissipation path and an electrical ground connection - not optional. Maxim specifies this in Package Information and recommends connecting EP directly to GND for optimal thermal resistance (θJA reduced by ~25%) and EMI suppression. Leaving EP floating or unconnected degrades power handling and may cause instability.
