General Description
The MAX4901–MAX4905 switches feature negative
signal capability that allows signals below ground to pass
through without distortion. The MAX4901/MAX4902 are a
dual SPST (single-pole/single-throw) and the MAX4903/
MAX4904/MAX4905 are a single SPDT (single-
pole/double-throw) configuration. These analog switches
operate from a single +1.8V to +5.5V supply and have
low 0.6on-resistance, making them ideal for switching
audio signals.
The MAX4905 includes a comparator that can be used
for headphone detection or mute/send key function. The
MAX4902/MAX4904/MAX4905 have internal shunt resis-
tors to automatically discharge any capacitance at the
NO_ and NC connection points. This reduces click-and-
pop sounds that occur when switching audio signals
between pre-charged points. A break-before-make fea-
ture and auto-discharge also help to reduce popping.
These SPST and SPDT switches are available in
space-saving 8-pin TDFN and 9-bump UCSP™ pack-
ages and operate over the -40°C to +85°C extended
temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX4901–MAX4905 are low on-resistance, low-volt-
age, dual-SPST and single-SPDT analog switches that
operate from a +1.8V to +5.5V supply and are fully speci-
fied for nominal 3.0V applications. The devices feature a
negative signal capability that allows signals below
ground to pass through without distortion and
have break-before-make switching (MAX4903/
MAX4904/MAX4905).
The MAX4905 features a comparator that can be used for
headphone or mute detection. The comparator threshold
is internally generated to be approximately 1/3 of VCC.
The MAX4902/MAX4904/MAX4905 feature an internal
shunt resistor to discharge any capacitance at NO_ and
NC connection points. This reduces the click-and-pop
sounds that occur when switching audio signals.
Applications Information
Digital Control Inputs
The MAX4901–MAX4905 logic inputs accept up to
+5.5V, regardless of supply voltage. For example, with
a +3.3V supply, IN_ can be driven low to GND and
high to +5.5V, allowing for mixing of logic levels in a
system. Driving IN_ rail-to-rail minimizes power
consumption. For a +1.8V supply voltage, the logic
thresholds are 0.5V (low) and 1.4V (high). For a +5V
supply voltage, the logic thresholds are 0.8V (low) and
2.0V (high).
Analog Signal Levels
The on-resistance of the MAX4901–MAX4905 changes
very little for analog input signals across the entire sup-
ply-voltage range (see the Typical Operating
Characteristics). The switches are bidirectional.
The MAX4901–MAX4905 pass signals as low as VCC -
5.5V, including signals below ground with minimal dis-
tortion. Note that there are shunt resistors on NO_ and
NC when they are unconnected to COM_ for the
MAX4902/MAX4904/MAX4905.
Comparator (MAX4905)
The MAX4905 includes a comparator that can be used
for mute and headphone detection functions. The posi-
tive terminal of the comparator is internally set to VCC / 3.
When the negative terminal (CMP-) is below the thresh-
old, the comparator output (CMPO) is a logic high.
The comparator threshold of VCC / 3 allows for detection
of headphones because headphone audio signals are
typically biased to VCC / 2.
Shunt Resistor
(MAX4902/MAX4904/MAX4905)
The 50shunt resistors on the MAX4902/MAX4904/
MAX4905 automatically discharge any capacitance at
the NC or NO_ terminals when they are unconnected to
COM_. This reduces audio click-and-pop sounds that
occur when switching between audio sources.

Audible clicks and pops are caused when a step DC
voltage is switched into the speaker. By automatically
discharging the side that is not connected, any resid-
ual DC voltage is removed, thereby reducing the clicks
and pops.
Power-Supply Sequencing and Overvoltage
Protection
Caution: Do not exceed the absolute maximum rat-
ings because stresses beyond the listed ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device.
Proper power-supply sequencing is recommended for
all CMOS devices. Always apply VCC before applying
analog signals, especially if the analog signal is not
current-limited.

MEASUREMENTS ARE STANDARDIZED AGAINST SHORTS AT IC TERMINALS.
OFF-ISOLATION IS MEASURED BETWEEN COM_ AND "OFF" NO_ OR NC TERMINAL ON EACH SWITCH.
-3dB BANDWIDTH IS MEASURED BETWEEN COM_ AND "ON" NO_ OR NC TERMINAL ON EACH SWITCH.
CROSSTALK IS MEASURED FROM ONE CHANNEL TO THE OTHER CHANNEL.
SIGNAL DIRECTION THROUGH SWITCH IS REVERSED; WORST VALUES ARE RECORDED.
