MAX3780ACCQ

Product Summary

The MAX3780CCQ 8-channel single-ended (1-of-8) multiplexer uses a series N-channel/P-channel/N-channel structure to provide significant fault protection. If the power supplies to the MAX3780CCQ are inadvertently turned off while input voltages are still applied, all channels in the muxes are turned off, and only a few nanoamperes of leakage current will flow into the inputs. This protects not only the MAX3780CCQ and the circuitry they drive, but also the sensors or signal sources that drive the muxes. The series N-channel/P-channel/N-channel protection structure has two significant advantages over the simple current-limiting protection scheme of the industry firstgeneration fault-protected muxes. First, the Maxim protection scheme limits fault currents to nanoamp leakage values rather than many milliamperes. This prevents damage to sensors or other sensitive signal sources. Second, the MAX3780CCQ fault-protected muxes can withstand a continuous ±60V input, unlike the first generation, which had a continuous ±35V input limitation imposed by power dissipation considerations.
