Product details
Overview
The MAX4800CXZ 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 typical on-resistance, DC–10MHz signal bandwidth, and operates with VPP/VNN supplies up to +40V/–160V (200V total). Its BCDMOS process enables robust high-voltage switching in medical ultrasound beamforming circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MAX4800CXZ datasheet, MAX4800CXZ pinout, MAX4800CXZ application, or MAX4800CXZ equivalent, this device delivers verified 8-channel high-voltage switching with programmable latch control, power-on reset, and +13.2V-tolerant digital inputs-critical for reliable transducer driver interface design in compact ultrasound systems.
Technical Context
The MAX4800CXZ implements an 8-bit serial shift register with transparent latch, controlled via DIN, CLK, LE (active-low), and CLR inputs. All eight switches are SPST, normally open, and each supports analog signals from VNN +10V to VPP –10V with ≤77dB off-isolation at 5MHz.
It uses independent supply domains: VDD (+2.7V to +13.2V) powers logic, while VPP/VNN (up to 200V differential) powers analog paths. Digital inputs tolerate +13.2V regardless of VDD level, enabling direct interfacing with higher-voltage microcontrollers without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VPP/VNN Supply Range | +40V/–160V to +185V/–15V (200V max differential); enables flexible HV biasing for piezoelectric transducers. |
| On-Resistance (RONS) | 22Ω typical (VPP=+100V, VNN=–100V, ICOM=5mA); ensures minimal signal attenuation in analog front-end paths. |
| Charge Injection | 350pC typical; reduces voltage glitches during switching-critical for precision ultrasound echo signal integrity. |
| Off-Isolation | –77dB at 5MHz (RL=50Ω); suppresses crosstalk between adjacent transducer channels in dense arrays. |
| Switch Bandwidth | DC to 10MHz; supports wideband pulse-echo imaging and high-speed printer actuation waveforms. |
| Digital Input Tolerance | +13.2V tolerant (DIN, CLK, LE, CLR), independent of VDD; eliminates external level shifters in mixed-supply systems. |
| Quiescent Current (VDD) | 10µA typical; minimizes standby power in battery-backed or thermally constrained medical modules. |
Pinout & Package
The MAX4800CXZ is housed in a 26-bump Chip-Scale Ball Grid Array (CSBGA) package, measuring 4.0mm × 4.0mm, with 0.5mm pitch and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish. This ultra-compact footprint supports high-density PCB layouts in portable ultrasound probes and space-constrained printer ASIC modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| COM0–COM7 | Analog common terminals (8 channels) | Each connects to one side of a piezoelectric transducer or print head element; must remain within VNN to VPP during power transitions. |
| NO0–NO7 | Analog normally-open terminals (8 channels) | Switched connection points; routed to HV bias rails or receive amplifiers-enables time-multiplexed transducer access. |
| VPP / VNN | High-voltage positive/negative supplies | Power analog switch channels; require local 0.1µF ceramic bypassing to GND for stable HV operation. |
| VDD / GND | Digital supply and ground | Isolate logic domain from HV noise; VDD range (+2.7V to +13.2V) supports 3.3V or 5V microcontroller interfaces. |
| DIN / CLK / LE / CLR | Serial control interface | Enable daisy-chained configuration of multiple devices; LE active-low latches data to update all 8 switches simultaneously. |
| DOUT | Serial data output | Supports cascading up to N devices using single MCU SPI port-reduces GPIO count in multi-probe systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-charge-injection switching | 350pC typical-minimizes transient voltage spikes on sensitive transducer nodes, preserving echo signal fidelity. |
| Programmable 8-bit latch with enable/clear | LE (active-low) freezes switch states during data loading; CLR (active-high) forces all switches open-ensures safe startup and fault recovery. |
| Power-on reset circuitry | Guarantees all 8 switches start open at power-up-prevents unintended transducer excitation or print head activation. |
| +13.2V-tolerant digital inputs | Eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing with 5V or 12V controllers-reduces BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Flexible HV supply compatibility | Supports asymmetric rails (e.g., +40V/–160V) and up to 200V differential-matches diverse transducer bias requirements across ultrasound platforms. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| HV20220FG | Pin-compatible Supertex predecessor; identical 48-TQFP pinout but not available in CSBGA; lacks +13.2V input tolerance. | Legacy replacement only; requires level-shifting for >5V logic interfaces and cannot match MAX4800CXZ's compact 26-CSBGA footprint. | Select MAX4800CXZ for new designs requiring miniaturization, wider logic voltage tolerance, and guaranteed production availability. |
| MAX4800CCM | Same die, different package: 48-pin TQFP (7mm × 7mm) vs. 26-CSBGA (4mm × 4mm); identical electrical specs and timing. | TQFP suits prototyping and lower-density boards; CSBGA targets high-channel-count portable systems where board area is critical. | Choose MAX4800CXZ when PCB real estate is constrained-e.g., handheld ultrasound probes-where 45% smaller footprint directly enables thinner form factors. |
Compared with HV20220FG and MAX4800CCM, the MAX4800CXZ uniquely combines CSBGA miniaturization, +13.2V-tolerant inputs, and full production support-making it the optimal choice for next-generation portable medical and industrial HV switching applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable VPP–VNN differential voltage for the MAX4800CXZ?
The MAX4800CXZ supports a maximum VPP–VNN differential voltage of 200V, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings. Valid combinations include +100V/–100V, +185V/–15V, and +40V/–160V. Exceeding 200V risks permanent damage. The MAX4800CXZ must be operated within these limits to ensure reliable switching and avoid breakdown in its BCDMOS output stage.
Does the MAX4800CXZ include integrated bleed resistors like the MAX4802?
No, the MAX4800CXZ does not include integrated bleed resistors. That feature is exclusive to the MAX4802 variant, which adds 35kΩ resistors from each COM/NO terminal to RGND. The MAX4800CXZ requires external discharge paths for capacitive loads-such as piezoelectric transducers-to prevent residual voltage buildup after switching.
Can the MAX4800CXZ be daisy-chained with other MAX4800-series devices?
Yes, the MAX4800CXZ supports daisy-chaining via its DOUT pin, which outputs shifted data delayed by eight clocks. Connect DOUT of one MAX4800CXZ to DIN of the next, while sharing CLK, LE, and CLR lines. This allows single-SPI-port control of multiple MAX4800CXZ devices-ideal for scaling channel count in ultrasound probe arrays without adding MCU GPIOs.
What is the purpose of the RGND pin, and is it present on the MAX4800CXZ?
The RGND pin is used exclusively by the MAX4802 to reference its internal 35kΩ bleed resistors. It is not present on the MAX4800CXZ. The MAX4800CXZ has no bleed resistors and therefore omits RGND-its pin 11 (CSBGA) is a no-connect (N.C.), as confirmed in the Pin Descriptions table for MAX4800 CSBGA.
How does the power-on reset function behave in the MAX4800CXZ?
The MAX4800CXZ incorporates an internal power-on reset circuit that forces all eight switches to the open (OFF) state at power-up, regardless of input conditions. This ensures transducers or print elements remain safely de-energized during system initialization-a critical safety feature explicitly guaranteed in the datasheet and implemented in the MAX4800CXZ's latch architecture.
