Industry's Only Switches with ±VCC Capability in Tiny WLP Packages

Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces the MAX14504/MAX14505/MAX14505A/MAX14506 dual SPDT analog switches for multiplexing high audio-output signals with low distortion. The industry's only switches to multiplex -V_CC to +V_CC signals, these devices enable multiple audio signals to share a single speaker, and thus eliminate the need for a negative supply and simplify designs. Ideal for interfacing to Maxim's DirectDrive® and Class G amplifiers, these switches are also well suited for portable applications that must conserve space while preserving high-fidelity outputs.

The MAX14504/MAX14505/MAX14505A/MAX14506 feature low on-resistance (0.35Ω, typ), low supply current (11µA, typ), and a 2.3V to 5.5V supply-voltage range. Additionally, the MAX14505/MAX14505A integrate shunt resistors to reduce the click-and-pop sounds that occur when switching audio signals between precharged points.


All devices are available in a tiny, 1.5mm x 2.1mm, 12-bump WLP package and are fully specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range. Prices start at $1.03 (1000-up, FOB USA).

Maxim Integrated Products is a publicly traded company that designs, manufactures, and sells over $2 billion of high-performance semiconductor products annually. It was founded over 25 years ago with the mission to deliver innovative analog and mixed-signal engineering solutions that add value to its customers' products. To date, Maxim has developed over 5800 products serving the industrial, communications, consumer, and computing markets. For more information, go to www.maxim-ic.com.
