Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PS391ESEEX is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Switch topology: SPST-NC (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Closed) with 4 circuits
  • On-state resistance range: 35Ohm to 50Ohm represents the closest electrical match; parts with significantly higher resistance (135Ohm, 160Ohm) or lower resistance (5.3Ohm) serve different application requirements
  • Supply voltage compatibility: Dual supply (±3V to ±8V) or single supply (3V to 15V) operation
  • Package type: 16-SOIC form factor with surface mount capability
  • Switching performance: Ton/Toff specifications and bandwidth requirements
  • Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories based on on-state resistance characteristics:

Category A (35Ohm - 50Ohm): Direct electrical equivalents with minimal performance deviation

  • MAX391CSE+, MAX391CSE+T, MAX391ESE+, MAX391ESE+T (35Ohm)
  • DG271BDY-E3, DG271BDY-T1-E3 (50Ohm)

Category B (Higher Resistance): Suitable for applications tolerating increased on-state resistance

  • ALD4211SCL (135Ohm)
  • MAX4511CSE+, MAX4511CSE+T (160Ohm)

Category C (Lower Resistance): For applications requiring minimal on-state resistance

  • DG454EY-T1-E3 (5.3Ohm)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Category A - 35Ohm to 50Ohm)

The MAX391ESE+ and MAX391ESE+T series represent the closest electrical equivalents to the PS391ESEEX. Both parts maintain identical supply voltage ranges (±3V to ±8V), switching times (130ns/75ns), and leakage current specifications (100pA). The MAX391ESE+ variants offer extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) matching the original part, while MAX391CSE+ variants operate within 0°C to 70°C. All MAX391 variants are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. The primary difference is package width (0.154" vs. 0.295"), which requires PCB layout verification.

The DG271BDY-E3 and DG271BDY-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix provide 50Ohm on-state resistance with superior crosstalk performance (-100dB @ 100kHz) and faster switching times (65ns). However, these parts require dual supply operation at ±15V, limiting compatibility to applications with higher supply voltages. Both are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating and active product status.

Secondary Substitutes (Category B - Higher Resistance)

The ALD4211SCL (135Ohm) and MAX4511CSE+/MAX4511CSE+T (160Ohm) are suitable only for applications where on-state resistance is not a critical parameter. The ALD4211SCL operates at lower supply voltages (±1.5V to ±6V) and exhibits minimal charge injection (0.2pC). The MAX4511 series requires higher supply voltages (±4.5V to ±18V) and exhibits significantly slower switching times (500ns/400ns), making these parts unsuitable for high-speed signal routing applications.

Tertiary Substitute (Category C - Lower Resistance)

The DG454EY-T1-E3 (5.3Ohm) is appropriate only for applications requiring minimal on-state resistance. This part operates across extended temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) but exhibits higher charge injection (22pC) and channel capacitance (31pF/34pF), unsuitable for audio applications or precision signal routing.

Compliance and Certification

All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original PS391ESEEX specifications. All parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification and HTSUS code 8542.39.0001.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX391CSE+ replace PS391ESEEX in all applications?

A: MAX391CSE+ is electrically compatible with PS391ESEEX for supply voltage and switching characteristics. However, the operating temperature range differs: MAX391CSE+ operates 0°C to 70°C versus PS391ESEEX at -40°C to 85°C. Verify your application's temperature requirements before substitution. Additionally, the package width differs (0.154" vs. 0.295"), requiring PCB layout confirmation.

Q: What is the difference between MAX391ESE+ and MAX391CSE+?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications (35Ohm on-state resistance, 130ns/75ns switching times, ±3V to ±8V supply). The primary difference is operating temperature range: MAX391ESE+ operates -40°C to 85°C (matching PS391ESEEX), while MAX391CSE+ operates 0°C to 70°C. Select MAX391ESE+ for extended temperature applications.

Q: Why do DG271 parts require ±15V supply while PS391ESEEX operates at ±3V to ±8V?

A: DG271 parts are designed for higher voltage applications and do not support the lower supply voltage range of PS391ESEEX. Substitution is only valid if your application can accommodate ±15V dual supply operation.

Q: Can I use DG454EY-T1-E3 as a direct replacement?

A: DG454EY-T1-E3 is not a direct replacement. While it provides superior on-state resistance (5.3Ohm), it exhibits significantly higher charge injection (22pC vs. 3pC) and channel capacitance (31pF/34pF vs. 12pF), making it unsuitable for audio signal routing. Use DG454EY-T1-E3 only in applications where minimal on-state resistance is the primary requirement.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: Substitute parts are available in two packaging formats: Tube (standard packaging) and Tape & Reel (TR) for automated assembly. Select based on your procurement and assembly requirements. Both formats are ROHS3 compliant with identical electrical specifications.

Q: Are all substitute parts currently in active production?

A: Yes, all listed substitute parts carry Active product status. The original PS391ESEEX is classified as Obsolete, making active substitutes necessary for new designs and ongoing procurement.
