MAX310EPE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX310EPE is a CMOS RF video multiplexer IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. This 8:1 video switch operates as a single-channel interface component in a 16-DIP package, designed for video signal routing applications. The device features break-before-make switching architecture with on-state resistance of 250Ω maximum and supports dual supply voltage configurations (±4.5V to ±18V) or single supply (9V to 36V).

The MAX310EPE is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent or substitute components becomes necessary when original stock is depleted or when design updates require components with improved compliance status or extended product lifecycle support.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MAX310EPE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Multiplexer/Demultiplexer circuit configuration: 8:1
  • Number of channels: 1
  • On-state resistance maximum: 250Ω
  • Supply voltage ranges: Single (9V ~ 36V) and Dual (±4.5V ~ ±18V)
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C
  • Switching architecture: Break-Before-Make
  • Package and mounting: 16-DIP through-hole

The MAX310EPE+ meets all electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. Both devices share identical functional specifications, pin configurations, and performance characteristics within the specified operating ranges.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX310EPE+ is the direct substitute for the MAX310EPE. Both components are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status and regulatory compliance:

The MAX310EPE is obsolete, limiting long-term availability and supply chain reliability. The MAX310EPE+ maintains active product status, ensuring continued manufacturer support and component availability.

The MAX310EPE+ achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original MAX310EPE is non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS directives or environmental regulations, the MAX310EPE+ is the appropriate selection. Both devices maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications.

Selection between these components should be based on supply chain requirements, regulatory compliance mandates, and long-term product lifecycle considerations rather than electrical performance, as both deliver equivalent functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are MAX310EPE and MAX310EPE+ pin-for-pin compatible?

A: Yes. Both devices use the 16-DIP package with identical pin configurations and electrical characteristics. Direct PCB substitution is possible without circuit modification.

Q: What is the primary reason to substitute MAX310EPE with MAX310EPE+?
