Ordering Information/Selector Guide

General DescriptionThe MAX4968/MAX4968A are 16-channel, high-linearity, high-voltage, bidirectional SPST analog switches with 18I (typ) on-resistance. The devices are ideal for use in applications requiring high-voltage switching controlled by a low-voltage control signal, such as ultrasound imag-ing and printers. The MAX4968A provides integrated 40kI (typ) bleed resistors on each switch terminal to discharge capacitive loads. Using HVCMOS technol-ogy, these switches combine high-voltage bilateral MOS switches and low-power CMOS logic to provide efficient control of high-voltage analog signals.

The MAX4968 is pin-to-pin compatible with the MAX14802 and Supertex HV2601. The MAX4968A is pin-to-pin compatible with the MAX14803 and Supertex HV2701. The only difference is the VPP positive supply voltage level. The MAX4968/MAX4968A require a low +10V (typ) voltage (VPP), whereas the MAX14802/MAX14803 and HV2601/HV2701 require a high +100V supply voltage.

In a typical ultrasound application, these devices do not require a dedicated high-voltage supply that implies a sig-nificant simplification of system requirement. The negative voltage supply can be shared with the transmitter, and the positive voltage supply is typically +10V.

The devices are available in the 48-pin LQFP package and are specified over the -40NC to +85NC extended temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Detailed DescriptionThe MAX4968/MAX4968A are 16-channel, high-linearity, high-voltage, bidirectional SPST analog switches with 18I (typ) on-resistance. The devices are ideal for use in applications requiring high-voltage switching controlled by a low-voltage control signal, such as ultrasound imag-ing and printers. The MAX4968A provides integrated 40kI (typ) bleed resistors on each switch terminal to discharge capacitive loads. Using HVCMOS technol-ogy, these switches combine high-voltage, bilateral MOS switches and low-power CMOS logic to provide efficient control of high-voltage analog signals.

The MAX4968 is pin-to-pin compatible with the MAX14802 and Supertex HV2601. The MAX4968A is pin-to-pin compatible with the MAX14803 and Supertex HV2701. The only difference is the VPP positive supply voltage level. The MAX4968/MAX4968A require a low +10V (typ) voltage (VPP), whereas the MAX14802/MAX14803 and HV2601/HV2701 require a high +100V supply voltage.

In typical ultrasound applications, these devices do not require dedicated high-voltage supply, which implies a significant simplification of system requirement. The negative voltage supply can be shared with the transmit-ter and the positive voltage supply is typically +10V.

Analog SwitchThe devices can transmit analog signals up to 210VP-P, with an analog signal range from VNN to VNN + 210V. Before starting the high-voltage burst transmission (VP-P > +20V), the input voltage is required to be close to GND to allow a proper settling of the pass FET. The high-voltage burst frequency must be greater than 500kHz.

Extremely long high-voltage bursts (VP-P > +10V) with duty cycle greater than 20% could result in signal deg-radation, especially for unipolar transmission. In general, this applies for burst transmission with a nonzero DC content.

Low-voltage signal (VP-P < 10V) continuous-wave bipo-lar transmission is supported for frequencies greater than 500kHz. For very small signals, such as the small echoes in typical ultrasound imaging systems (VP-P < 10V), the devices are not limited to a low-frequency bandwidth and can transmit DC signals.

Voltage SuppliesThe devices operate with a high-voltage supply VNN from -200V to 0, VPP supply of +10V (typ), and a logic supply VDD (+2.37V to +5.5V).

Bleed Resistors (MAX4968A)The MAX4968A features integrated 40kI (typ) bleed resistors to discharge capacitive loads such as piezo-electric transducers. Each analog switch terminal is con-nected to GND with a bleed resistor.

Serial InterfaceThe MAX4968/MAX4968A are controlled by a serial interface with a 16-bit serial shift register and transparent latch. Each of the 16 data bits controls a single analog switch (see Table 1). Data on DIN is clocked with the most significant bit (MSB) first into the shift register on the rising edge of CLK. Data is clocked out of the shift register onto DOUT on the rising edge of CLK. DOUT reflects the status of DIN, delayed by 16 clock cycles (see Figures 2 and 3).

Latch Enable (LE)Drive LE logic-low to change the contents of the latch and update the state of the high-voltage switches

(Figure 3). Drive LE logic-high to freeze the contents of the latch and prevent changes to the switch states. To reduce noise due to clock feedthrough, drive LE logic-high while data is clocked into the shift register. After the data shift register is loaded with valid data, pulse LE logic-low to load the contents of the shift register into the latch.

Latch Clear (CLR)The MAX4968/MAX4968A feature a latch-clear input. Drive CLR logic-high to reset the contents of the latch to zero and open all switches. CLR does not affect the contents of the data shift register. Pulse LE logic-low to reload the contents of the shift register into the latch.

Power-On ResetThe MAX4968/MAX4968A feature a power-on-reset cir-cuit to ensure all switches are open at power-on. The internal 16-bit serial shift register and latch are set to zero on power-up.

Table 1. Serial Interface Programming (Notes 1–6) (continued)

Note 1: The 16 switches operate independently.Note 2: Serial data is clocked in on the rising edge of CLK.Note 3: The switches go to a state retaining their present condition on the rising edge of LE. When LE is low, the shift register data

flows through the latch.Note 4: DOUT is high when switch 15 is on.Note 5: Shift register clocking has no effect on the switch states if LE is high.Note 6: The CLR input overrides all other inputs.

Applications InformationIn typical ultrasound applications, the MAX4968/MAX4968A do not require dedicated high-voltage supplies; the nega-tive voltage supply can be shared with the transmitter and the positive voltage supply is typically +10V. See Figures 5, 6, and 7 for medical ultrasound applications.

Logic LevelsThe MAX4968/MAX4968A digital interface inputs CLK, DIN, LE, and CLR operate on the VDD logic supply voltage.

Daisy-Chaining Multiple DevicesDigital output DOUT is provided to allow the connec-tion of multiple MAX4968/MAX4968A devices by daisy-

chaining (Figure 4). Connect each DOUT to the DIN of the subsequent device in the chain. Connect CLK, LE, and CLR inputs of all devices, and drive LE logic-low to update all devices simultaneously. Drive CLR high to open all the switches simultaneously. Additional shift registers can be included anywhere in series with the MAX4968/MAX4968A daisy-chain.

Supply Sequencing and BypassingThe MAX4968/MAX4968A do not require special sequencing of the VDD, VPP, and VNN supply voltages. Bypass VDD, VPP, and VNN to GND with a 0.1FF ceramic capacitor as close as possible to the device.

Note: Keep LE low during power-up.
