Detailed Description
The MAX14777 quad SPST switch supports analog
signals above and below the rails with a single 3.0V to
5.5V supply. The device features up to -15V/+35V analog
signal range for all switches when pin SEL35 is high.
When pin SEL35 is low, the analog signal range reduces
to -15V/+15V signal range, also resulting in a lower VCC
supply current. SEL35 trades off high-side analog signal
range for supply current. Each switch has a separate con-
trol input to allow independent switching.
The MAX14777 features 10Ω (max) on-resistance, and
9mΩ (typ) RON flatness, along with a 50nA (max at
+85°C) on-leakage. For maximum signal integrity, the IC
keeps this performance over the entire common-mode
voltage range. Each switch can carry up to 60mA (max)
of continuous current in either direction.
Integrated Bias Generation
The MAX14777 contains a total of three charge pumps to
generate bias voltages for the internal switches: a 5V reg-
ulated charge pump, a positive high-voltage charge pump
(VP), and a negative high-voltage charge pump (VN).
When VCC is above 4.75V (typ), the 5V charge pump is
bypassed and VCC provides the input for the high-voltage
charge pumps, reducing overall supply current.
The voltage at VN is always -16V (typ); however, the
MAX14777 features a pin-selectable (SEL35) voltage-
high range for the analog signal. When the SEL35 input is
low, the voltage on VP is +26V (typ) and the analog signal
range is -15V/+15V. When the SEL35 input is high, the
voltage on VP is +46V (typ) and the analog signal range
is extended to -15V/+35V.
An external 10nF capacitor is required for each high-
voltage charge pump between VP/VN and GND. Use a
50V-rated capacitor on VN. On VP use a 50V capacitor
if SEL35 = low or use a 100V capacitor if SEL35 = high.
Never use VP or VN to power external circuitry.
Analog Signal Levels
The MAX14777 transmits signals above and below the
rails with a single 3.0V to 5.5V supply due to its integrated
bias circuitry. The analog signal range is pin selectable
using the SEL35 input. Drive SEL35 low to switch signals
between -15V and +15V. Drive SEL35 high to switch
signals between -15V and +35V.
Setting SEL35 low reduces both turn-on delay and VCC
supply current.
The MAX14777 features 10Ω (max) on-resistance and
9mΩ (typ) RON flatness for analog signals between -15V
and +35V. The current flow through the switches can be
bidirectional.
