Two-Lane and Four-Lane DisplayPort Passive
Switches with Separate AUX/HPD Control
General Description
The MAX4998/MAX14998 high-speed passive switches
route DisplayPort™ between two possible destinations
or vice versa in laptops or desktop PCs. The MAX4998/
MAX14998 are intended to be used where ultra-highspeed performance and minimal input capacitance is
required.
The MAX4998 has three double-pole/double-throw
(DPDT) switches and one single-pole/double-throw
(SPDT) switch. Two DPDT switches are for high-frequency switching, one DPDT switch is for AUX, and the one
SPDT switch is for HPD. The two high-frequency switches
are selected by SEL1, and the AUX and HPD are selected
by SEL2. This part is suitable for two-lane DisplayPort
switching.
The MAX14998 has six double-pole/double-throw (DPDT)
switches. Four DPDT switches are for high-frequency
switching, and two DPDT switches are for AUX and HPD.
The four high-frequency switches are selected by SEL1,
and the AUX and HPD are selected by SEL2. This part is
suitable for four-lane DisplayPort switching.
The MAX4998/MAX14998 are fully specified to operate
from a single +3.3V (typ) power supply. The MAX4998
is available in a 3.5mm x 5.5mm, 28-pin TQFN package
with exposed pad, and the MAX14998 is available in a
3.5mm x 9mm, 42-pin TQFN package with exposed pad.
Both devices operate over the -40NC to +85NC extended
temperature range.

Note 1: Signals on COM_, NO_, NC_, SEL1, and SEL2 exceeding VDD or GND are clamped by internal diodes. Limit forward-
diode current to the maximum current rating.
Note 2: Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a
4-layer board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.

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.
