Key Featrues

Low On-Resistance (2.5Ω max): The MAX4607/MAX4608/MAX4609 analog switches feature a maximum on-resistance of 2.5Ω, ensuring minimal signal loss and high efficiency in signal routing applications. This low resistance is particularly beneficial in low-distortion audio systems and precision test equipment, where signal integrity is critical.
Guaranteed RON Match Between Channels (0.5Ω max): The switches guarantee a maximum on-resistance mismatch of 0.5Ω between channels, ensuring consistent performance across multiple signal paths. This feature is essential in applications requiring balanced signal routing, such as communication systems and avionics.
Rail-to-Rail Signal Handling: These analog switches can handle rail-to-rail analog signals, allowing for full utilization of the supply voltage range. This capability enhances the dynamic range of the signal, making the switches ideal for applications like audio-signal routing and PBX/PABX systems.
Single and Dual-Supply Operation: The switches support both single-supply (4.5V to 36V) and dual-supply (±4.5V to ±20V) operation, providing flexibility in various circuit designs. This dual-supply capability is particularly useful in industrial and automotive applications where both positive and negative voltage rails are present.
TTL/CMOS-Compatible Control Inputs: The control inputs of the MAX4607/MAX4608/MAX4609 are compatible with both TTL and CMOS logic levels, ensuring easy integration with a wide range of digital control systems. This compatibility simplifies the design process and reduces the need for additional level-shifting components, enhancing overall system efficiency.

Applications

Audio-Signal Routing: The MAX4607/MAX4608/MAX4609 dual analog switches are perfect for routing audio signals in professional audio equipment, mixers, and amplifiers. Their low on-resistance (2.5Ω max) and rail-to-rail signal handling ensure minimal signal distortion, making them ideal for high-fidelity audio applications in studios and live sound systems.
Avionics Systems: These analog switches are well-suited for avionics systems, where reliable and precise signal switching is critical. Their low power requirements, small footprint, and robust performance under varying temperatures make them ideal for use in flight control systems, communication modules, and navigation equipment.
Test Equipment: The MAX4607/MAX4608/MAX4609 switches are an excellent replacement for mechanical relays in automatic test equipment (ATE). Their low on-resistance, fast switching times (110ns/150ns), and high reliability ensure accurate and efficient signal routing in testing and measurement applications, such as semiconductor testing and circuit board diagnostics.
Communication Systems: These switches are ideal for use in communication systems, including PBX/PABX systems, where they can handle signal routing with minimal distortion. Their ability to operate with both single and dual power supplies (4.5V to 36V and ±4.5V to ±20V) makes them versatile for various communication protocols and signal levels, ensuring reliable performance in telecommunication infrastructure.
