Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution of the MAX398ESE is determined by the following critical parameters:
- Multiplexer Configuration: Must be 8:1 topology
- Package Type: Must be 16-SOIC form factor for PCB compatibility
- On-State Resistance: Acceptable range depends on circuit impedance requirements; lower resistance values provide improved signal fidelity
- Supply Voltage Compatibility: Must support the voltage rails present in the target application
- Operating Temperature Range: Must encompass the thermal environment of deployment
- Electrical Performance: Switch time, charge injection, and crosstalk characteristics must meet signal integrity requirements
Substitute parts are grouped into three categories based on electrical performance and supply voltage requirements:
Category 1 - Direct Functional Equivalent (Active Status) MAX398ESE+ provides identical electrical specifications with improved RoHS3 compliance and active product status.
Category 2 - Enhanced Performance Substitutes (Higher Supply Voltage, Lower On-State Resistance) ADG1208YRZ, ADG1208YRZ-REEL7, and ADG1308BRZ-REEL7 offer improved switching characteristics and extended temperature ranges, suitable for applications requiring lower on-state resistance and higher supply voltages.
Category 3 - Alternative Topology Substitutes (Higher On-State Resistance, Extended Supply Voltage) DG508BEY-T1-E3 and HI9P0548-5Z provide 8:1 multiplexing in 16-SOIC packages with different electrical trade-offs, applicable to high-voltage or high-impedance applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
For Direct Replacement with Improved Compliance: MAX398ESE+ is the primary substitute when design specifications and supply voltage requirements remain unchanged. This part maintains identical electrical performance while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance, eliminating obsolescence risk and regulatory concerns.
For Applications Requiring Extended Temperature Range: ADG1208YRZ and ADG1208YRZ-REEL7 extend the operating temperature range to -40°C to 125°C and provide faster switching times (95ns/100ns versus 150ns). These parts require minimum supply voltage of 5V for single-supply operation, compared to 3V for the MAX398ESE. Channel-to-channel matching is improved to 4.6Ohm. Packaging options include Tube (ADG1208YRZ) and Cut Tape/Digi-Reel (ADG1208YRZ-REEL7).
For High-Voltage Applications: DG508BEY-T1-E3 supports single-supply operation from 12V to 44V and dual-supply operation from ±5V to ±20V, making it suitable for industrial and automotive environments. On-state resistance is 380Ohm with 10Ohm channel matching. Operating temperature range extends to 125°C.
For Dual-Supply Symmetric Voltage Applications: HI9P0548-5Z operates exclusively on ±15V dual supply with 1.8kOhm on-state resistance. This part is appropriate for precision analog signal routing in audio and instrumentation applications where higher impedance is acceptable. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 75°C.
All substitute parts maintain 16-SOIC surface mount packaging and 8:1 multiplexer topology, ensuring PCB layout compatibility with the original MAX398ESE design.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can MAX398ESE+ be used as a direct drop-in replacement for MAX398ESE? A: Yes. MAX398ESE+ provides identical electrical specifications, package type, and pin configuration. The primary differences are active product status and ROHS3 compliance. No circuit modifications are required.
Q: What is the key difference between MAX398ESE and ADG1208YRZ? A: The primary differences are on-state resistance (100Ohm versus 200Ohm), minimum supply voltage (3V versus 5V for single supply), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C versus -40°C to 125°C). ADG1208YRZ offers faster switching times and lower charge injection. Selection depends on impedance requirements and thermal environment.
Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging? A: All substitute parts are available in 16-SOIC surface mount packages. However, packaging options differ: MAX398ESE+ is supplied in Tube; ADG1208YRZ in Tube; ADG1208YRZ-REEL7 in Cut Tape/Digi-Reel; ADG1308BRZ-REEL7 in Tape & Reel; DG508BEY-T1-E3 in Tape & Reel; HI9P0548-5Z in Tube; HI9P0548-5Z96 in Tape & Reel. Verify packaging compatibility with assembly requirements.
Q: Which substitute part has the lowest on-state resistance? A: MAX398ESE and MAX398ESE+ both have 100Ohm on-state resistance. ADG1208YRZ and ADG1208YRZ-REEL7 have 200Ohm. For applications requiring the lowest resistance, the MAX398ESE+ is the appropriate choice.
Q: Can HI9P0548-5Z replace MAX398ESE in a single-supply application? A: No. HI9P0548-5Z operates exclusively on ±15V dual supply and does not support single-supply operation. It is not suitable for single-supply designs.
Q: What is the impact of higher on-state resistance on circuit performance? A: Higher on-state resistance increases signal attenuation and output impedance. For high-impedance signal routing applications, this may be acceptable. For low-impedance or high-frequency applications, lower on-state resistance is preferred. Verify circuit requirements before substitution.
Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant. The original MAX398ESE is RoHS non-compliant. Regulatory requirements may necessitate substitution to an active, compliant part.
Q: What is the operating temperature range difference between MAX398ESE and ADG1208YRZ? A: MAX398ESE operates from -40°C to 85°C. ADG1208YRZ operates from -40°C to 125°C. For applications requiring extended high-temperature operation, ADG1208YRZ provides additional thermal margin.
