General Description
The MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523 are quad, low-volt-
age, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switches.
On-resistance (100Ωmax) is matched between switch-
es to 4Ωmax, and is flat (12Ωmax) over the specified
signal range. Each switch can handle rail-to-rail analog
signals. The off-leakage current is only 1nA at +25°C
and 10nA at +85°C.
The MAX4521 has four normally closed (NC) switches,
and the MAX4522 has four normally open (NO) switch-
es. The MAX4523 has two NC switches and two NO
switches.
These CMOS switches can operate with dual power
supplies ranging from ±2V to ±6V or a single supply
between +2V and +12V. They are fully specified for sin-
gle +2.7V operation.
All digital inputs have +0.8V and +2.4V logic thresh-
olds, ensuring TTL/CMOS-logic compatibility when
using ±5V or a single +5V supply.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS—Dual Supplies
(V+ = +4.5V to +5.5V, V- = -4.5V to -5.5V, TA= TMIN to TMAX, unless otherwise noted. Typical values are at TA= +25°C.)
Note 1: Signals on NC_, NO_, COM_, or IN_ exceeding V+ or V- are clamped by internal diodes. Limit forward-diode current to maxi-
mum current rating.
Note 2: All leads are soldered or welded to PC boards.
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.

MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523
Applications Information
Power-Supply Considerations
Overview
The MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523 construction is typi-
cal of most CMOS analog switches. They have three
supply pins: V+, V-, and GND. V+ and V- are used to
drive the internal CMOS switches, and they set the lim-
its of the analog voltage on any switch. Reverse ESD-
protection diodes are internally connected between
each analog-signal pin and both V+ and V-. If any ana-
log signal exceeds V+ or V-, one of these diodes con-
ducts. During normal operation these reverse-biased
ESD diodes leak, forming the only current drawn from
V+ or V-.
Virtually all the analog leakage current is through the
ESD diodes. Although the ESD diodes on a given sig-
nal pin are identical and therefore fairly well balanced,
they are reverse biased differently. Each is biased by
either V+ or V- and the analog signal. This means their
leakages vary as the signal varies. The difference in the
two diode leakages from the signal path to the V+ and
V- pins constitutes the analog-signal-path leakage cur-
rent. All analog leakage current flows to the supply ter-
minals, not to the other switch terminal. This explains
how both sides of a given switch can show leakage
currents of the same or opposite polarity.
There is no connection between the analog-signal
paths and GND. The analog-signal paths consist of an
N-channel and P-channel MOSFET with their sources
and drains paralleled, and their gates driven out of
phase to V+ and V- by the logic-level translators.
V+ and GND power the internal logic and logic-level
translators, and set the input logic thresholds. The
logic-level translators convert the logic levels to
switched V+ and V- signals to drive the gates of the
analog switches. This drive signal is the only connec-
tion between the logic supplies and the analog sup-
plies. V+ and V- have ESD-protection diodes to GND.
The logic-level inputs and output have ESD protection
to V+ and to GND.
Increasing V- has no effect on the logic-level thresh-
olds, but it does increase the drive to the P-channel
switches, reducing their on-resistance. V- also sets the
negative limit of the analog-signal voltage.
The logic-level thresholds are CMOS/TTL compatible
when V+ = +5V. The threshold increases slightly as V+
is raised, and when V+ reaches +12V, the level thresh-
old is about 3.1V. This is above the TTL output high-
level minimum of 2.8V, but still compatible with CMOS
outputs.
Bipolar Supplies
The MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523 operate with bipolar
supplies between ±2V and ±6V. The V+ and V- sup-
plies need not be symmetrical, but their sum cannot
exceed the absolute maximum rating of 13.0V. Do not
connect the MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523 V+ to +3V,
and then connect the logic-level-input pins to TTL
logic-level signals. TTL logic-level outputs in excess
of the absolute maximum ratings can damage the
part and/or external circuits.
Caution: The absolute maximum V+ to V- differential
voltage is 13.0V. Typical ±6V or 12V supplies with
±10% tolerances can be as high as 13.2V. This voltage
can damage the MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523. Even
±5% tolerance supplies may have overshoot or noise
spikes that exceed 13.0V.
Single Supply
The MAX4521/MAX4522/MAX4523 operate from a
single supply between +2V and +12V when V- is con-
nected to GND. All of the bipolar precautions must be
observed.
High-Frequency Performance
In 50Ωsystems, signal response is reasonably flat up
to 50MHz (see Typical Operating Characteristics).
Above 20MHz, the on-response has several minor
peaks that are highly layout dependent. The problem
with high-frequency operation is not turning the switch
on, but turning it off. The off-state switch acts like a
capacitor and passes higher frequencies with less
attenuation. At 10MHz, off-isolation is about -52dB in
50Ωsystems, becoming worse (approximately 20dB
per decade) as frequency increases. Higher circuit
impedances also make off-isolation worse. Adjacent
channel attenuation is about 3dB above that of a bare
IC socket, and is due entirely to capacitive coupling.
