General Description Features

MAX4638/MAX4639
The MAX4638/MAX4639 are single 8:1 and dual 4:1 ♦ Guaranteed RON
CMOS analog multiplexers/demultiplexers (muxes/ 3.5Ω (+5V or ±2.5V Supplies)
demuxes). Each mux operates from a single +1.8V to
6Ω (+3V Supply)
+5V supply or dual ±2.5V supplies. These devices fea-
ture 3.5Ω on-resistance (RON) when powered with a ♦ Guaranteed 0.4Ω RON Match Between Channels
single +5V supply and have -75dB off-isolation and ♦ Guaranteed 1Ω RON Flatness Over Signal Range
-85dB crosstalk from the output to each off channel.
The switching times are 18ns tON and 7ns tOFF. They ♦ Guaranteed Low Leakage Currents
feature a -3dB 85MHz bandwidth and a guaranteed 0.25nA at +25°C
0.25nA leakage current at +25°C. ♦ Switching Times: tON = 18ns, tOFF = 7ns
A +1.8V to +5.5V operating range makes the MAX4638/ ♦ +1.8V to +5.5V Single-Supply Operation
MAX4639 ideal for battery-powered, portable instru- ±2.5V Dual-Supply Operation
ments. All channels guarantee break-before-make

and can handle Rail-to-Rail® analog signals. All control ♦ TTL/CMOS-Logic Compatible
inputs are TTL/CMOS-logic compatible. Decoding is in

Note 1: Signals on COM_, NO_ exceeding V+ or V- are clamped by internal diodes. A_ and EN are clamped only to V- and can
exceed V+ up to their maximum ratings. Limit forward-diode current to maximum current rating.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Detailed Description

MAX4638/MAX4639
+2.5V
The MAX4638/MAX4639 are low-voltage, CMOS analog
D1
MAX4638
muxes. The MAX4638 is an 8:1 mux that switches one MAX4639
of eight inputs (NO1–NO8) to a common output (COM) V+
as determined by the 3-bit binary inputs A0, A1, and
A2. The MAX4639 is a 4:1 dual mux that switches one
of four differential inputs to a common differential out- * *
put as determined by the 2-bit binary inputs A0 and A1. COM_ NO_
Both the MAX4638/MAX4639 have an EN input that can * *
be used to enable or disable the device. When dis-
abled, all channels are switched off. See Truth Tables.

Overvoltage Protection -2.5V * INTERNAL PROTECTION DIODES

Proper power-supply sequencing is recommended for
all CMOS devices. Do not exceed the absolute maxi- Figure 1. Overvoltage Protection Using External Blocking

ings can cause permanent damage to the devices.
Always sequence V+ on first, then V-, followed by the
logic inputs. If power-supply sequencing is not possi-
ble, add two small-signal diodes (D1, D2) in series with Ordering Information (continued)

Adding diodes reduces the analog signal range to one PART TEMP RANGE PIN-PACKAGE
