Product details
Overview
MAX4780ETE+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage, quad 2:1 analog multiplexer IC with 0.7Ω on-resistance at +2.7V supply, 20ns turn-on time, and rail-to-rail signal handling from GND to V+. It operates from a single +1.6V to +4.2V supply and consumes less than 1µW quiescent power, making it suitable for battery-powered audio routing in cellular phones and portable data-acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4780ETE+T datasheet, MAX4780ETE+T pinout, MAX4780ETE+T application, or MAX4780ETE+T equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance flatness (0.1Ω), +1.8V CMOS logic compatibility, break-before-make timing (7ns typical), and thin QFN-EP package thermal performance for space-constrained portable designs.
Technical Context
The MAX4780ETE+T implements four independent bidirectional 2:1 analog switches using CMOS process technology, each with separate COM, NO, and NC terminals. Its control logic uses a single A0 address input and an active-low EN enable pin - unlike the MAX4784, it lacks A1 and uses EN instead of A1 for global switch enable.
Switching behavior is defined by truth table: when EN = low and A0 = low, COMx connects to NCx; when EN = low and A0 = high, COMx connects to NOx. All channels enter high-impedance state when EN = high, with <±10nA COM on-leakage and <±5nA NO/NC off-leakage over –40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.6V to +4.2V - supports Li-ion battery voltage range without regulation. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 0.7Ω at +2.7V - enables ≤100mA continuous current per channel with <70mV drop. |
| RON Flatness | 0.1Ω at +2.7V - ensures consistent gain and THD across full signal swing (0–2.7V). |
| Turn-On/Off Time | tON = 20ns, tOFF = 8ns - supports >10MHz switching in high-speed data acquisition paths. |
| Off-Isolation | –67dB at 1MHz - suppresses crosstalk between active and inactive channels in multi-signal routing. |
| Logic Compatibility | +1.8V CMOS inputs - interfaces directly with 1.8V/3.3V microcontrollers without level shifters. |
| Leakage Current | ±10nA COM on-leakage - maintains accuracy in high-impedance sensor front-ends and precision ADC inputs. |
Pinout & Package
MAX4780ETE+T is housed in a 16-pin 3mm × 3mm thin QFN package with exposed pad (EP) internally connected to GND. The EP must be soldered to a large PCB ground plane for optimal thermal dissipation and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (A0) | Address Input | Selects NO or NC path per channel; CMOS-compatible, rail-to-rail tolerant up to +4.2V. |
| 2 (NC1) | Normally Closed Terminal | Default connection to COM1 when A0 = low; 0.7Ω RON path at +2.7V. |
| 3 (NO1) | Normally Open Terminal | Active connection to COM1 when A0 = high; matched RON and flatness vs. NC1. |
| 4 (COM1) | Analog Switch Common | Bidirectional I/O node; handles rail-to-rail analog signals (GND to V+) with <5pC charge injection. |
| 15 (EN) | Enable Input | Active-low global enable; high state forces all COM outputs into high-impedance mode. |
| 16 (V+) | Positive Supply | Single supply input; bypass with 0.1µF capacitor to GND minimizes switching noise coupling. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path; connects internally to exposed pad for thermal and EMI control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low 0.7Ω on-resistance | Minimizes signal attenuation and distortion in audio and sensor signal paths at +2.7V operation. |
| 0.1Ω RON flatness | Ensures uniform channel gain across full analog input range, critical for precision instrumentation. |
| +1.8V CMOS logic compatibility | Eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with low-voltage microcontrollers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2:1 analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4784ETE+T | Replaces EN with A1 input; adds second address bit for independent channel control; same RON, package, and specs. | Required where per-channel switching (not group-select) is needed; not drop-in compatible due to EN/A1 pin swap. | Select MAX4784ETE+T only if discrete control of each 2:1 pair is required; MAX4780ETE+T remains optimal for synchronized quad routing. |
| TMUX1574RTER | Lower RON (0.5Ω @ 3.3V), but higher supply min (1.8V); no NC terminals; 1.8V–5.5V range; 16-QFN same footprint. | Lacks NC path - supports only NO/COM configuration; unsuitable for fail-safe or default-path applications requiring NC. | Choose TMUX1574RTER only for pure NO/COM routing with tighter RON tolerance; MAX4780ETE+T retains NC functionality for redundancy-critical designs. |
Compared with MAX4784ETE+T and TMUX1574RTER, the MAX4780ETE+T uniquely combines EN-based global disable, NC/NO dual-path topology, and guaranteed 0.1Ω RON flatness at +2.7V - making it the preferred choice for battery-powered systems requiring default-path safety and minimal signal distortion.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating per channel for MAX4780ETE+T?
The MAX4780ETE+T supports ±300mA continuous current per COM, NO, or NC terminal, verified under absolute maximum ratings. At +2.7V supply and 0.7Ω on-resistance, this allows ≤210mV voltage drop at 300mA - sufficient for driving 8Ω or 32Ω audio loads without external amplification. Derating applies above +70°C ambient per the 14.7mW/°C thermal specification.
Does MAX4780ETE+T support rail-to-rail analog signals with minimal distortion?
Yes, the MAX4780ETE+T passes analog signals from GND to V+ with <0.1Ω on-resistance flatness at +2.7V, ensuring consistent gain across the full voltage range. Total harmonic distortion is specified at 0.008% (20Hz–20kHz, 2VP-P, 32Ω load), and charge injection is limited to 5pC - both critical for high-fidelity audio and precision sensor signal integrity in the MAX4780ETE+T.
Can MAX4780ETE+T be used with a 1.8V supply, and what are the trade-offs?
Yes, the MAX4780ETE+T operates down to +1.6V, and at +1.8V supply delivers 2Ω typical on-resistance and 25ns/10ns turn-on/turn-off times. While RON increases versus +2.7V operation, leakage remains <±5nA, and logic inputs retain +1.0V VIH compatibility. This makes the MAX4780ETE+T viable for ultra-low-power modes in devices like hearing aids or wearables where supply headroom is constrained.
How does the EN pin function in MAX4780ETE+T, and what happens when it is high?
The EN pin on the MAX4780ETE+T is an active-low enable. When pulled high (≥VIH = +1.4V at +2.7V supply), all four COM outputs enter high-impedance state regardless of A0 state, with COM on-leakage limited to ±10nA. This feature allows system-level power gating and safe signal isolation - a key distinction from the MAX4784ETE+T, which replaces EN with A1 and lacks global disable capability in the MAX4780ETE+T.
Is the exposed pad (EP) on MAX4780ETE+T electrically functional, and how should it be connected?
The exposed pad on the MAX4780ETE+T is internally connected to GND and is not intended as an electrical signal node. It must be soldered to a large PCB ground plane to achieve rated thermal performance (1176.5mW at +70°C) and reduce EMI susceptibility. Leaving the EP unconnected degrades junction temperature rise by >20°C under full load - a critical layout requirement explicitly documented for the MAX4780ETE+T in Maxim's package guidelines.
