Detailed Description
The MAX4906/MAX4906F/MAX4907/MAX4907F analog
switches are targeted for USB 2.0 high-speed
(480Mbps) switching applications. These devices still
meet USB low- and full-speed requirements and are
suitable for 10/100 Ethernet switching. The MAX4906/
MAX4906F feature two SPDT switches, while the
MAX4907/MAX4907F feature two SPST switches. The
MAX4907/MAX4907F switch configurations have a low
7Ω (max) on-resistance and 7pF (max) on-capacitance.
The MAX4906/MAX4906F/MAX4907/MAX4907F are fully
specified to operate from a single +3.0V to +3.6V supply
and are available with +5.5V fault protection (MAX4906F/
MAX4907F). When operating from a +3.0V to +3.6V sup-
ply, the low threshold of these devices permits them to
be used with logic levels as low as 1.4V.The
MAX4906/MAX4906F/MAX4907/MAX4907F are based
on a charge-pump-assisted n-channel architecture and
thus operate at 300µA (max) quiescent current. These
devices all feature a shutdown input to reduce the quies-
cent current to less than 2µA (max).

Digital Control Input
The MAX4906/MAX4906F/MAX4907/MAX4907F provide
a single-digit control logic input, IN. IN controls the
position of the switches as shown in the Functional
Diagram/Truth Table. Driving IN rail-to-rail minimizes
power consumption. With a +3.0V to +3.6V supply volt-
age range, these devices are +1.4V logic compatible.
Analog Signal Levels
The on-resistance of the MAX4906/MAX4906F/
MAX4907/MAX4907F is very low and stable as the ana-
log input signals are swept from ground to V+ (see the
Typical Operating Characteristics). These switches are
bidirectional, allowing NO_, NC_, and COM_ to be con-
figured as either inputs or outputs.
Overvoltage Fault Protection
The MAX4906F and MAX4907F feature +5.5V fault pro-
tection to COM1 and COM2. Fault protection prevents
these switches from being damaged due to shorts to
the USB bus voltage rail.
Shutdown Mode
The MAX4906/MAX4906F feature a shutdown mode
that reduces the quiescent current supply to less than
2µA. Drive SHDN/EN high to place the devices in high-
impedance mode. When SHDN/EN is driven low, the
devices are normal in operation.
The MAX4907/MAX4907F feature a SHDN input that
reduces the quiescent current supply to less than 2µA.
Drive SHDN high to place the devices in low current
mode. The devices can be used in low current mode, but
with a reduced analog voltage range of 0 < V
ANALOG
<
1.5V and reduced performance. When SHDN is driven
low, the MAX4907/MAX4907F are in normal operation.
Applications Information
USB Switching
The MAX4906/MAX4906F/MAX4907/MAX4907F analog
switches are fully compliant with the USB 2.0 specifica-
tion. The low on-resistance and low on-capacitance of
these switches make them ideal for high-performance
switching applications. The MAX4906/MAX4906F are

High-/Full-Speed USB 2.0 Switches

ideal for routing USB data lines (see Figure 7) and for
applications that require switching between multiple
USB hosts (see Figure 8). The MAX4907/MAX4907F
can be used in applications that require different data
types to share the same pins (see Figure 9); however,
the shared device must be capable of going into the tri-
state mode. The MAX4906F/MAX4907F also feature
+5.5V fault protection to guard systems against shorts
to the USB bus voltage. The fault-protected versions
are recommended for all USB applications.
Ethernet Switching
The wide bandwidth of the MAX4906/MAX4906F/
MAX4907/MAX4907F meets the needs of 10/100 Ethernet
switching. These devices switch the signals from two
interface transformers and connect the signals to a single
10/100 Base-T Ethernet PHY, simplifying docking station
design and reducing manufacturing costs.
Power-Supply Sequencing
Caution: Do not exceed the absolute maximum rat-
ings because stresses beyond the listed ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device.
Proper power-supply sequencing is recommended for
all CMOS devices. Always apply V+ before applying
analog signals, especially if the analog signal is not
current limited.
Layout
High-speed switches require proper layout and design
procedures for optimum performance. Keep design-
controlled-impedance PC board traces as short as pos-
sible. Ensure that bypass capacitors are as close to the
device as possible. Use large ground planes where
possible.
