Switch groups

Drive EN (6) LOW to close one path in each group. Every group has its own select input. EN HIGH opens all paths regardless of select levels. The switches are break-before-make when changing throws. Set all four control pins to defined levels during startup.

Group and selectLOW · throw 0HIGH · throw 1
A · S0 (11)14 ↔ 12 14 ↔ 13
B · S1 (10)15 ↔ 2 15 ↔ 1
C · S2 (9)4 ↔ 5 4 ↔ 3

Pairs are shown as common pin ↔ throw pin. Test each path in the connection guide.

Recommended operating conditions

VCC · positive supply2 to 6 V
VEE · negative analog rail−6 to 0 V

Analog terminalsVEE to VCC
Digital controlsGND to VCC
Ambient temperature−55 to +125 °C

Apply all three rail limits together. Voltages are relative to GND except the rail span. For example, VCC = +5 V and VEE = 0 V gives a 0 to +5 V analog range. With VCC = +4.5 V and VEE = −4.5 V, the analog range is −4.5 to +4.5 V and the digital inputs still swing from 0 to +4.5 V.

HC digital input thresholds

VCCVIL max (LOW)VIH min (HIGH)
2 V0.5 V 1.5 V
4.5 V1.35 V 3.15 V
6 V1.8 V 4.2 V

Check the driver's guaranteed LOW and HIGH output levels against the HC limits at your supply voltage. A 3.3 V GPIO driving a 5 V HC control input requires a level-compatibility check.

On-resistance and loading

At VCC = 4.5 V, VEE = 0 V, 25 °C and 1 mA, on-resistance across the analog signal range is 90 Ω typical and 180 Ω maximum. It rises to a 270 Ω maximum across −55 to +125 °C under the same supply and current conditions. Allow for voltage drop and RC settling when driving a load or sampling capacitor.
