MAX396

19-0404; Rev. 1; 9/96 Precision, 16-Channel/Dual 8-Channel, Low-Voltage, CMOS Analog Multiplexers _______________General Description The MAX396/MAX397 low-voltage, CMOS analog multiplexers (muxes) offer low on-resistance (100Ω max), which is matched to within 6Ω between switches and remains flat over the specified signal range (10Ω max). They also offer low leakage over temperature (input off-leakage current less than 1nA at +85°C) and fast switching speeds (transition time less than 250ns). The MAX396 is a 16-channel device, and the MAX397 is a dual 8-channel device. The MAX396/MAX397 are fabricated with Maxim’s lowvoltage silicon-gate process. Design improvements yield extremely low charge injection (5pC max) and guarantee electrostatic-discharge (ESD) protection greater than 2000V per Method 3015.7 These muxes operate with a single +2.7V to +16V supply or with ±2.7V to ±8V dual supplies, while retaining CMOS-logic input compatibility and fast switching. The MAX396/MAX397 are pin compatible with the industrystandard MAX306/MAX307, DG406/DG407, and DG506A/DG507A. ____________________________Features o Pin Compatible with MAX306/MAX307, DG406/DG407, DG506A/DG507A o Single-Supply Operation (+2.7V to +16V) Dual-Supply Operation (±2.7V to ±8V) o Low On-Resistance (100Ω max) o Guaranteed RON Match Between Channels (6Ω max) o Guaranteed RON Flatness over Specified Signal Range (10Ω max) o Guaranteed Low Charge Injection (5pC max) o Input Off-Leakage Current < 1nA at +85°C o Outp...
