The MAX381/MAX383/MAX385 are precision, low-voltage analog switches. The single-pole single-throw MAX381 and double-pole single-throw MAX385 dual switches are normally open. The single-pole doublethrow MAX383 has two normally open and two normally closed poles. All three parts offer low on-resistance (less than 35½), guaranteed to match to within 2 between channels and to remain flat over the specified analog signal range (4½ max). MAX381 also offer low leakage (less than 250pA at +25°C and less than 2.5nA at +85°C) and fast switching (turn-on time less than 175ns and turn-off time less than 100ns).

The MAX381/MAX383/MAX385 are fabricated with Maxim's low-voltage silicon-gate process for high system accuracy. Design improvements guarantee extremely low charge injection (<5pC) and low power consumption (<10W).

These monolithic switches MAX381 operate with a single positive supply (+3V to +15V) or with split supplies (±3V to ±8V) while retaining CMOS-logic input compatibility and fast switching. CMOS inputs provide reduced input loading.
