Product Overview: MAX309ESE+T from Maxim Integrated

The MAX309ESE+T is a highly versatile analog multiplexer/demultiplexer (mux/demux) from Maxim Integrated, designed to cater to a wide range of applications requiring efficient routing of analog signals. This precision device is a part of Maxim's renowned family of CMOS analog ICs, known for their reliability and performance.

With a single 8-channel configuration, the MAX309ESE+T offers the flexibility to operate as either a multiplexer or a demultiplexer, making it a perfect fit for signal routing tasks in complex systems. The device operates with a single supply voltage ranging from +10.8V to +13.2V or a dual supply from ±4.5V to ±20V, accommodating various design requirements.

The MAX309ESE+T boasts a low on-resistance of 100 ohms (max), which ensures minimal signal attenuation, and an on-resistance match between channels of less than 5 ohms (max), providing consistent performance across all channels. Additionally, the off-leakage current is extremely low, at 0.5nA (max) at +25°C, which is critical for maintaining signal integrity in high-precision applications.

With its break-before-make switching action, the MAX309ESE+T eliminates the possibility of momentary shorting when switching between channels, thereby protecting sensitive downstream components and signals. The device also features fast transition times, with tON and tOFF typically at 175ns, enabling quick and efficient signal routing without introducing significant delays into the signal path.

Encased in a compact 16-pin narrow SO package, the MAX309ESE+T is designed for space-constrained applications. Its extended temperature range from -40°C to +85°C makes it suitable for use in various environments, from industrial to commercial settings.

Whether used in data acquisition systems, communication devices, test equipment, or audio/video signal routing, the MAX309ESE+T from Maxim Integrated offers designers a high-performance, reliable solution for managing multiple analog signals with ease.
