General Description

The MAX4659/MAX4660 are medium voltage CMOS analog switches with a low on-resistance of 25Ω max specifically designed to handle large switch currents. With a switch capability of up to 200mA peak current and 150mA continuous current (MAX4660), and up to 150mA peak current and 75mA continuous current (MAX4659), these parts can switch loads as low as 50Ω. They can replace reed relays with a million times the speed and a virtually unlimited number of lifetime cycles. Normal power consumption is only 3mW, whether the switch is on or off. These parts are TTL/CMOS compatible and will switch any voltage within their power-supply range.
