Product details
Overview
The MAX4800CTM+ from Maxim Integrated is an 8-channel, high-voltage SPST analog switch IC designed for ultrasonic imaging transducer multiplexing and industrial printer head control. It features low-charge-injection (350pC), 22Ω on-resistance, ±100V/±185V/±40V high-voltage supply flexibility (VPP/VNN), and a serial digital interface with +13.2V-tolerant inputs. It operates across 0°C to +70°C and supports DC–10MHz analog signal switching.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4800CTM+ datasheet, MAX4800CTM+ pinout, MAX4800CTM+ application, or MAX4800CTM+ equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, real-world use cases in medical ultrasound and precision printing, and validated drop-in alternatives to Supertex HV20220.
Technical Context
The MAX4800CTM+ implements eight independent BCDMOS-based SPST switches controlled via an 8-bit serial shift register and programmable latch with active-low LE and asynchronous CLR. Its power-on reset ensures all switches default to open at startup, eliminating unintended conduction during system initialization.
It accepts asymmetric high-voltage supplies up to VPP − VNN = 200V (e.g., +100V/−100V, +185V/−15V, +40V/−160V), while its digital interface runs from a separate +2.7V to +13.2V VDD rail. All logic inputs (DIN, CLK, LE, CLR) are +13.2V tolerant regardless of VDD level, enabling direct interfacing with higher-voltage microcontrollers or FPGAs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Signal Range | VNN +10V to VPP −10V - enables full utilization of high-voltage rails while maintaining safe margin against breakdown |
| On-Resistance (RONS) | 22Ω typical - minimizes voltage drop and power loss in high-current transducer drive paths |
| Charge Injection | 350pC - reduces image artifacts and baseline drift in ultrasound receive chains |
| Off-Isolation | −77dB at 5MHz - prevents crosstalk between adjacent channels in dense transducer arrays |
| Switching Frequency | 50kHz max output switching - supports rapid beam steering and multi-line scanning |
| Digital Input Tolerance | +13.2V independent of VDD - eliminates level-shifting requirements for mixed-supply systems |
| Quiescent Current (VDD) | 10µA - enables low-power standby modes in battery-assisted portable ultrasound systems |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4800CTM+ is packaged in a 48-pin TQFP (7mm × 7mm, lead-free, RoHS-compliant) with exposed pad for thermal management. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner (marked by dot or beveled edge).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| COM0–COM7 | Analog common terminals (8) | Connect to transducer elements or print head drivers; each pairs with corresponding NOx |
| NO0–NO7 | Analog normally-open terminals (8) | Route switched high-voltage signals to receiver front-ends or driver outputs |
| VPP / VNN | High-voltage supply rails | Support asymmetric operation up to 200V differential; require local 0.1µF ceramic bypassing |
| VDD / GND | Digital supply and ground | Isolate logic domain from high-voltage domain; enable independent power sequencing |
| DIN / CLK / LE / CLR / DOUT | Serial control interface | Enable daisy-chaining of multiple devices; LE active-low latching prevents clock feedthrough glitches |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Drop-in replacement for HV20220 | Pins, timing, and functional behavior match Supertex HV20220FG - no PCB or firmware changes required |
| Low-charge-injection switching | 350pC typical - preserves signal integrity in sensitive ultrasound echo amplification stages |
| Wide high-voltage supply range | VPP/VNN options include +100V/−100V, +185V/−15V, +40V/−160V - accommodates diverse transducer biasing schemes |
| DC to 10MHz analog bandwidth | Supports both pulsed excitation and wideband echo reception in diagnostic imaging systems |
| Power-on reset | Guarantees all switches start open - prevents inadvertent transducer activation during boot |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage analog switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supertex HV20220FG | Pin-compatible, identical 48-pin PLCC/TQFP footprint and serial interface timing; same 22Ω RONS, but no integrated power-on reset | Lacks guaranteed open-at-power-up behavior - requires external reset coordination in safety-critical systems | Select HV20220FG only if legacy board reuse is mandatory and POR functionality is handled externally |
| Maxim MAX4802CCM+ | Same pinout and interface, but adds integrated 35kΩ bleed resistors on all COM/NO terminals and RGND pin | Required where piezoelectric transducer discharge between pulses is critical (e.g., phased-array transmit burst recovery) | Choose MAX4802CCM+ when capacitive load discharge is needed; otherwise MAX4800CTM+ offers lower cost and simpler layout |
Compared with HV20220FG, MAX4800CTM+ adds guaranteed power-on reset and tighter charge injection spec; compared with MAX4802CCM+, it omits bleed resistors and RGND, reducing component count and PCB area in non-capacitive-load applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable VPP − VNN voltage for the MAX4800CTM+?
The MAX4800CTM+ supports a maximum VPP − VNN differential of 200V, as confirmed in Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Valid configurations include +100V/−100V, +185V/−15V, and +40V/−160V. Exceeding 200V risks permanent damage, even if individual rail limits are not breached.
Does the MAX4800CTM+ require specific power supply sequencing?
No - the MAX4800CTM+ does not mandate strict VDD/VPP/VNN sequencing. However, analog inputs (COMx/NOx) must remain unconnected or within VNN ≤ V ≤ VPP during power-up/down to prevent latch-up. Local 0.1µF ceramic bypassing on all supplies is mandatory per datasheet recommendations.
Is the MAX4800CTM+ pin-compatible with the Supertex HV20220?
Yes - the MAX4800CTM+ is explicitly documented as a pin-compatible, drop-in replacement for Supertex HV20220FG in the 48-pin TQFP package. Pin functions, electrical timing, and serial interface behavior match, enabling direct substitution without layout or firmware modification.
What is the purpose of the DOUT pin on the MAX4800CTM+?
The DOUT pin provides serial data output delayed by eight clock cycles, enabling daisy-chaining of multiple MAX4800CTM+ devices. When DIN data is shifted in, DOUT reflects the oldest bit, allowing cascaded configuration of large switch matrices using a single SPI bus and shared CLK/LE/CLR lines.
How does the power-on reset function operate in the MAX4800CTM+?
The MAX4800CTM+ integrates an internal power-on reset circuit that forces the 8-bit latch to zero at power-up, ensuring all eight switches default to the open (non-conducting) state. This behavior is guaranteed across the full 0°C to +70°C operating range and eliminates risk of unintended transducer activation or print head firing during system startup.
