DESCRIPTION

The DG444, DG445 monolithic quad analog switches are

designed to provide high speed, low error switching of

analog signals. The DG444 has a normally closed function.

The DG445 has a normally open function. Combining low

power (22 nW, typ.) with high speed (tON: 120 ns, typ.), the

DG444, DG445 are ideally suited for upgrading DG211,

DG212 sockets. Charge injection has been minimized on the

drain for use in sample-and-hold circuits.

To achieve high-voltage ratings and superior switching

performance, the DG444, DG445 are built on Vishay

Siliconix’s high-voltage silicon-gate process. An epitaxial

layer prevents latchup.

Each switch conducts equally well in both directions when

on, and blocks input voltages to the supply levels when off.
