MAX4606CSE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX4606CSE is a 4-circuit IC switch with SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) NO/NC configuration, designed for interface applications requiring low on-state resistance and fast switching performance. This component features a 4Ohm maximum on-state resistance and operates across a wide supply voltage range of 4.5V to 36V (single supply) or ±4.5V to ±20V (dual supply). The MAX4606CSE is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable alternatives essential for ongoing design support and production continuity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX4606CSE+ is a direct functional equivalent to the MAX4606CSE with identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance. The MAX4606CSE is obsolete, whereas the MAX4606CSE+ is active and carries ROHS3 compliance certification, making it the appropriate selection for new designs and production continuity. Both parts maintain equivalent performance characteristics for interface switching applications requiring 4-circuit SPST configuration with 4Ohm on-state resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX4606CSE+ be used as a direct replacement for MAX4606CSE?

A: Yes. The MAX4606CSE+ meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the MAX4606CSE. Both parts feature identical switch circuit configuration, on-state resistance, supply voltage ranges, switching times, and package specifications. The primary difference is product status and RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The MAX4606CSE is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The MAX4606CSE+ is active, ensuring ongoing supply and support. For new designs and production applications, the MAX4606CSE+ is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts use identical 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount packaging. No PCB layout modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What does ROHS3 compliance mean for the MAX4606CSE+?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates the part meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive requirements, restricting specific hazardous materials in electrical and electronic equipment. This is relevant for applications subject to environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Are the electrical performance characteristics identical?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical on-state resistance (4Ohm maximum), channel-to-channel matching (200mOhm), supply voltage ranges (4.5V ~ 36V single, ±4.5V ~ ±20V dual), switching times (120ns, 130ns), charge injection (225pC), channel capacitance (34pF), leakage current (500pA), and crosstalk performance (-60dB @ 1MHz).
