The Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated MAX4782EGE+ is a dual SP4T analog switch designed for precision signal routing in battery-powered and portable electronics. This interface IC integrates two independent single-pole, four-throw (SP4T) switch configurations within a compact 16-pin QFN package measuring 4mm × 4mm with an exposed thermal pad, offering a space-efficient solution for multi-channel signal path management in handheld instruments, test equipment, and communication systems.
Operating from a single supply voltage between 1.6V and 3.6V, the MAX4782EGE+ provides an exceptionally low on-resistance of just 1Ω maximum, which translates to minimal signal attenuation and accurate analog transmission across audio, sensor, and low-frequency data acquisition channels. The channel-to-channel matching specification of 300mΩ supports differential and balanced signal routing where consistent impedance between paths is necessary to maintain signal integrity. Fast switching times of 25ns turn-on and 15ns turn-off enable rapid channel reconfiguration in dynamic scanning applications and multiplexed measurement systems.
The device exhibits a leakage current specification of 2nA maximum in the off state, contributing to low power consumption and high isolation when channels are inactive. Crosstalk performance reaches -80dB at 1MHz, providing effective separation between adjacent signal paths in multi-channel audio mixers, video routing, and RF front-end switching where interference suppression is necessary. The charge injection specification of -110pC indicates the transient disturbance introduced during switching events, a parameter relevant to high-precision analog applications such as sample-and-hold circuits and data converters where switching artifacts can affect measurement accuracy.
Channel capacitance values of 38pF for source-off capacitance and 158pF for drain-off capacitance define the frequency-dependent behavior of the switch. These parameters influence bandwidth and signal coupling in AC applications, making the MAX4782EGE+ suitable for audio frequency signal routing, low-speed data multiplexing, and sensor interface switching where bandwidth requirements fall within the range supported by these capacitance levels.
The 4:1 multiplexer/demultiplexer configuration allows each of the two independent circuits to route one common terminal to any of four selectable channels, or conversely, to select one of four inputs to a single output. This topology is directly applicable to channel expansion in data acquisition systems, input source selection in portable instrumentation, and signal path switching in battery management systems where multiple analog signals must be monitored or routed through a single ADC or signal conditioning path.
Qualified for operation across the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, the MAX4782EGE+ is compatible with embedded systems, automotive peripherals, and outdoor equipment where extended temperature tolerance is required. The surface-mount QFN package with exposed pad facilitates thermal dissipation and supports automated assembly processes in high-volume manufacturing environments.
The part is designated as obsolete by the manufacturer, indicating that it is no longer in active production, though existing inventory remains available. The device is compliant with RoHS3 directives and REACH regulations, and carries a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, allowing unlimited floor life after package opening without requiring dry storage or baking procedures prior to reflow soldering. The ECCN classification of EAR99 indicates the component is generally unrestricted for export under U.S. regulations, and the HTSUS code 8542.39.0001 defines its tariff classification for import and customs purposes.

Finding a Practical MAX4782EGE+ Analog Devices/Maxim Replacement for Obsolete Dual SP4T Switching Designs
When the Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated MAX4782EGE+ becomes difficult to source, replacement selection is not just a part-number substitution task. The device is a low-voltage, low-on-resistance, dual SP4T analog switch in a 16-QFN package, so a substitute must be checked for signal range, Ron, leakage, charge injection, switching speed, control logic behavior, package footprint, and long-term availability.

A suitable MAX4782EGE+ replacement should first preserve the required 4:1 multiplexer/demultiplexer function across two independent circuits. After that, the selection should focus on whether the system depends on the original 1Ω maximum on-resistance, 1.6V to 3.6V single-supply operation, 25ns/15ns switching speed, and 16-QFN mechanical layout.
What the MAX4782EGE+ Analog Devices/Maxim Device Contributes to the Original Circuit
The MAX4782EGE+ is a dual 4:1 analog multiplexer/demultiplexer switch. It provides two SP4T switch circuits, each routing one common terminal to one of four selectable channels. Its key electrical characteristic is the low 1Ω maximum on-state resistance, which makes it suitable for low-voltage signal paths where series resistance affects gain accuracy, settling behavior, or load drive.

The original part is often used in battery-powered equipment, portable instrumentation, audio or baseband routing, sensor multiplexing, and low-voltage data-acquisition front ends. Its low Ron is often the main reason it was chosen instead of a generic CMOS multiplexer such as a 4052-family device.
For replacement decisions, the most restrictive parameters are usually package compatibility, supply-voltage range, Ron, and signal integrity. A higher-Ron substitute may work in high-impedance signal paths but may be unsuitable where the switch drives low-impedance loads or forms part of a precision gain path. Similarly, a part with a 2.7V minimum supply cannot replace MAX4782EGE+ in a 1.8V-only design without power-rail changes.
