____________________________Features
The MAX378 8-channel single-ended (1-of-8) multiplexer
and the MAX379 4-channel differential (2-of-8) multiplexer
use a series N-channel/P-channel/N-channel structure to
provide significant fault protection. If the power supplies to
the MAX378/MAX379 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
MAX378/MAX379 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’s 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 MAX378/MAX379 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.
♦
♦
♦
♦
All digital inputs have logic thresholds of 0.8V and 2.4V,
ensuring both TTL and CMOS compatibility without requiring pull-up resistors. Break-before-make operation is
guaranteed. Power dissipation is less than 2mW.

Figure 6. Typical Data Acquisition Front End
_______________Typical Applications
Figure 6 shows a typical data acquisition system
using the MAX378 multiplexer. Since the multiplexer
is driving a high-impedance input, its error is a function of its own resistance (RDS(ON)) times the multiplexer leakage current (IOUT(ON)) and the amplifier
bias current (IBIAS):
VERR = RDS(ON) x (IOUT(ON) + IBIAS (MAX420))
= 2.0kΩ x (2nA + 30pA)
= 18.0µV maximum error
In most cases, this error is low enough that preamplification of input signals is not needed, even with very
low-level signals such as 40µV/°C from type J thermocouples.
6
In systems with fewer than eight inputs, an unused channel can be connected to the system ground reference
point for software zero correction. A second channel
connected to the system voltage reference allows gain
correction of the entire data acquisition system as well.
A MAX420 precision op amp is connected as a programmable-gain amplifier, with gains ranging from 1 to
10,000. The guaranteed 5µV unadjusted offset of the
MAX420 maintains high signal accuracy, while programmable gain allows the output signal level to be scaled to
the optimum range for the remainder of the data acquisition system, normally a Sample/Hold and A/D. Since
the gain-changing multiplexer is not connected to the
external sensors, it can be either a DG508A multiplexer
or the fault-protected MAX358 or MAX378.

_______________Detailed Description
The MAX378/MAX379 are fully fault protected for continuous input voltages up to ±60V, whether or not the V+
and V- power supplies are present. These devices use
a “series FET” switching scheme which not only protects the multiplexer output from overvoltage, but also
limits the input current to sub-microamp levels.
Figures 7 and 8 show how the series FET circuit protects against overvoltage conditions. When power is
off, the gates of all three FETs are at ground. With a -60V
input, N-channel FET Q1 is turned on by the +60V gate-
D
S
G
G
MAX378/MAX379
Input switching, however, must be done with a faultprotected MAX378 multiplexer, to provide the level of
protection and isolation required with most data acquisition inputs. Since external signal sources may continue to supply voltage when the multiplexer and system
power are turned off, non-fault-protected multiplexers,
or even first-generation fault-protected devices, will
allow many milliamps of fault current to flow from outside sources into the multiplexer. This could result in
damage to either the sensors or the multiplexer. A nonfault-protected multiplexer will also allow input overvoltages to appear at its output, perhaps damaging
Sample/Holds or A/Ds. Such input overdrives may also
cause input-to-input shorts, allowing the high current
output of one sensor to possibly damage another.
The MAX378 eliminates all of the above problems. It
not only limits its output voltage to safe levels, with or
without power applied (V+ and V-), but also turns all
channels off when power is removed. This allows it to
draw only sub-microamp fault currents from the inputs,
and maintain isolation between inputs for continuous
input levels up to ±75V with power supplies off.

to-source voltage. The P-channel device (Q2), however, has +60V VGS and is turned off, thereby preventing
the input signal from reaching the output. If the input
voltage is +60V, Q1 has a negative VGS, which turns it
off. Similarly, only sub-microamp leakage currents can
flow from the output back to the input, since any voltage will turn off either Q1 or Q2.
Figure 9 shows the condition of an OFF channel with
V+ and V- present. As with Figures 7 and 8, either an
N-channel or a P-channel device will be off for any
input voltage from -60V to +60V. The leakage current
with negative overvoltages will immediately drop to a
few nanoamps at +25°C. For positive overvoltages,
that fault current will initially be 40µA or 50µA, decaying
over a few seconds to the nanoamp level. The time
constant of this decay is caused by the discharge of
stored charge from internal nodes, and does not compromise the fault-protection scheme.
Figure 10 shows the condition of the ON channel with
V+ and V- present. With input voltages less than ±10V,
all three FETs are on and the input signal appears at the
output. If the input voltage exceeds V+ minus the Nchannel threshold voltage (VTN), then the N-channel
FET will turn off. For voltages more negative than Vminus the P-channel threshold (VTP), the P-channel
device will turn off. Since VTN is typically 1.5V and VTP
is typically 3V, the multiplexer’s output swing is limited
to about -12V to +13.5V with ±15V supplies.
The Typical Operating Characteristics graphs show typical leakage vs. input voltage curves. Although the maximum rated input of these devices is ±65V, the
MAX378/MAX379 typically have excellent performance
up to ±75V, providing additional margin for the unknown
transients that exist in the real world. In summary, the
MAX378/MAX379 provide superior protection from all
fault conditions while using a standard, readily produced junction-isolated CMOS process.
Switching Characteristics
and Charge Injection
Table 1 shows typical charge-injection levels vs.
power-supply voltages and analog input voltage. Note
that since the channels are well matched, the differential charge injection for the MAX379 is typically less
than 5pC. The charge injection that occurs during
switching creates a voltage transient whose magnitude
is inversely proportional to the capacitance on the multiplexer output.
The channel-to-channel switching time is typically 600ns,
with about 200ns of break-before-make delay. This 200ns
break-before-make delay prevents the input-to-input short
that would occur if two input channels were simultaneous8
ly connected to the output. In a typical data acquisition
system, such as in Figure 6, the dominant delay is not the
switching time of the MAX378 multiplexer, but is the settling time of the following amplifiers and S/H. Another limiting factor is the RC time constant of the multiplexer
RDS(ON) plus the signal source impedance multiplied by
the load capacitance on the output of the multiplexer.
Even with low signal source impedances, 100pF of capacitance on the multiplexer output will approximately double
the settling time to 0.01% accuracy.
Operation with Supply Voltage
Other than ±15V
The main effect of supply voltages other than ±15V is
the reduction in output signal range. The MAX378 limits
the output voltage to about 1.5V below V+ and about 3V
above V-. In other words, the output swing is limited to
+3.5V to -2V when operating from ±5V. The Typical
Operating Characteristics graphs show typical RDS(ON),
for ±15V, ±10V, and ±5V power supplies. Maxim tests
and guarantees the MAX378/MAX379 for operation from
±4.5V to ±18V supplies. The switching delays are
increased by about a factor of 2 at ±5V, but breakbefore-make action is preserved.
The MAX378/MAX379 can be operated with a single +9V
to +22V supply, as well as asymmetrical power supplies
such as +15V and -5V. The digital threshold will remain
approximately 1.6V above GND and the analog characteristics such as RDS(ON) are determined by the total voltage
difference between V+ and V-. Connect V- to 0V when
operating with a +9V to +22V single supply.
This means that the MAX378/MAX379 will operate with
standard TTL-logic levels, even with ±5V power supplies. In all cases, the threshold of the EN pin is the
same as the other logic inputs.

Test Conditions: CL = 1000pF on Out A and Out B; the tabulated analog input level is applied to inputs 1A and 1B; channels
2 through 4 are open circuited. EN = +5V, A1 = 0V, A0 is toggled from 0V to 3V at a 2kHz rate.
rents as the off-channel input voltages are varied. The
MAX378 output leakage varies only a few picoamps as
all seven off inputs are toggled from -10V to +10V. The
output voltage change depends on the impedance level
at the MAX378 output, which is RDS(ON) plus the input
signal source resistance in most cases, since the load
driven by the MAX378 is usually a high impedance. For
a signal source impedance of 10kΩ or lower, the DC
crosstalk exceeds 120dB.
Table 2 shows typical AC crosstalk and off-isolation performance. Digital feedthrough is masked by the analog
charge injection when the output is enabled. When the
output is disabled, the digital feedthrough is virtually
unmeasurable, since the digital pins are physically isolated from the analog section by the GND and V- pins.
The ground plane formed by these lines is continued
onto the MAX378/MAX379 die to provide over 100dB
isolation between the digital and analog sections.
Digital Interface Levels
The typical digital threshold of both the address lines
and the EN pin is 1.6V, with a temperature coefficient of
about -3mV/°C. This ensures compatibility with 0.8V to
2.4V TTL-logic swings over the entire temperature
range. The digital threshold is relatively independent of
the supply voltages, moving from 1.6V typical to 1.5V
typical as the power supplies are reduced from ±15V to
±5V. In all cases, the digital threshold is referenced to
GND.
The digital inputs can also be driven with CMOS-logic
levels swinging from either V+ to V- or from V+ to GND.
The digital input current is just a few nanoamps of leakage at all input voltage levels, with a guaranteed maximum of 1µA. The digital inputs are protected from ESD
by a 30V zener diode between the input and V+, and
can be driven ±4V beyond the supplies without drawing
excessive current.
Operation as a Demultiplexer
The MAX378/MAX379 will function as a demultiplexer,
where the input is applied to the OUT pin, and the input
pins are used as outputs. The MAX378/MAX379 provide both break-before-make action and full fault protection when operated as a demultiplexer, unlike earlier
generations of fault-protected multiplexers.
Channel-to-Channel Crosstalk,
Off Isolation, and Digital Feedthrough
At DC and low frequencies, channel-to-channel
crosstalk is caused by variations in output leakage cur-
