Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MAX349CAP is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Multiplexer configuration: 8:1
  • Number of circuits: 1
  • On-state resistance: 100Ohm maximum
  • Channel-to-channel matching: 16Ohm maximum
  • Supply voltage ranges: 2.7V ~ 16V (single) and ±2.7V ~ 8V (dual)
  • Switch timing: 275ns (Ton), 150ns (Toff)
  • Charge injection: 1pC
  • Channel capacitance: 2pF (both CS(off) and CD(off))
  • Leakage current: 100pA maximum
  • Crosstalk performance: -90dB @ 100kHz
  • Package type: 20-SSOP surface mount

The MAX349CAP+ meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. Both parts share identical functional parameters and package geometry, with differences limited to product status and compliance certifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX349CAP+ is the direct equivalent substitute for the MAX349CAP. Both components are electrically and mechanically identical across all functional parameters. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the MAX349CAP is obsolete, while the MAX349CAP+ maintains active production status.

For new designs or component replenishment, the MAX349CAP+ is the appropriate selection. This part is ROHS3 compliant, supporting modern regulatory requirements and supply chain continuity. The MAX349CAP+ is available in tube packaging and maintains full compatibility with existing MAX349CAP circuit implementations without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX349CAP+ directly replace MAX349CAP in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MAX349CAP+ is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the MAX349CAP. All electrical parameters, including multiplexer configuration, on-state resistance, supply voltage ranges, switching characteristics, and package dimensions are identical. Direct substitution requires no circuit modifications.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from MAX349CAP to MAX349CAP+?

A: The MAX349CAP is classified as obsolete, creating supply chain risk. The MAX349CAP+ is an active product with ongoing manufacturing support. Additionally, the MAX349CAP+ is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 20-SSOP surface mount package with identical dimensions (0.209", 5.30mm width). The MAX349CAP+ is supplied in tube packaging, while the MAX349CAP packaging specification was not provided. The package footprint and pinout are identical.

Q: What are the critical electrical parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is based on equivalence across multiplexer configuration (8:1), on-state resistance (100Ohm), channel matching (16Ohm max), supply voltage ranges (2.7V ~ 16V single, ±2.7V ~ 8V dual), switch timing (275ns/150ns), charge injection (1pC), channel capacitance (2pF), leakage current (100pA), and crosstalk performance (-90dB @ 100kHz).

Q: Is the MAX349CAP+ suitable for new product designs?

A: Yes. The MAX349CAP+ is an active product with full manufacturing support and ROHS3 compliance, making it appropriate for new designs requiring an 8:1 analog multiplexer in a 20-SSOP package.
