Product details
Overview
74HCT4851BQ,115 from NXP Semiconductors is an 8-channel analog multiplexer/demultiplexer with injection-current effect control, designed for automotive and industrial signal routing. It features active-LOW enable (E), three binary select inputs (S0–S2), eight independent I/Os (Y0–Y7), and one common I/O (Z), operating across 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply with ON-resistance as low as 76 Ω at 4.5 V and injection-current coupling ≤0.27 mV at 5 V/1 mA.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT4851BQ,115 datasheet, 74HCT4851BQ,115 pinout, 74HCT4851BQ,115 application, or 74HCT4851BQ,115 equivalent, this device is selected for high-reliability analog switching in voltage-overstress environments-especially where disabled channel signals may exceed VCC without corrupting the enabled path.
Technical Context
The 74HCT4851BQ,115 implements a 1-of-8 decoder driving eight independently controlled analog switches, each with integrated injection-current control circuitry that suppresses cross-talk when disabled channels are overdriven. Its TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max) ensure robust interfacing with legacy microcontrollers and logic families.
Switch operation is strictly conditional on E being LOW; all channels enter high-impedance OFF-state when E is HIGH, regardless of S0–S2 state. The DHVQFN16 package enables thermal-enhanced performance with 0.85 mm profile and exposed die pad for improved power dissipation in compact layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with 5 V TTL systems and stable operation under automotive battery variation. |
| ON-Resistance (RON) | 76 Ω typical at VCC = 4.5 V - Minimizes signal attenuation and distortion in precision analog paths. |
| Injection Current Coupling | ≤0.27 mV at VCC = 5.0 V, ISW = 1 mA - Prevents signal corruption when disabled analog inputs exceed supply rails. |
| Enable Propagation Delay | 80 ns max at VCC = 4.5 V - Supports fast channel switching in real-time sensor multiplexing. |
| OFF-State Leakage | ±0.1 µA per channel at VCC = 5.5 V - Reduces crosstalk and power loss in high-impedance sensor networks. |
| Input Capacitance | 10 pF max on S0/S1/S2/E - Limits loading on driving logic and preserves signal integrity at high frequencies. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments. |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN16 package: 2.5 × 3.5 × 0.85 mm body, no leads, 16 terminals, thermal-enhanced construction with exposed die pad (not electrically connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Y4) | Independent analog I/O | One of eight bidirectional signal paths routed to Z when selected. |
| 2 (Y6) | Independent analog I/O | Channel-specific path with matched RON and leakage for consistent channel performance. |
| 3 (Z) | Common analog I/O | Shared connection point; carries signal to/from enabled Yn channel during MUX/DEMUX operation. |
| 4 (Y7) | Independent analog I/O | Full-swing analog-capable terminal; supports rail-to-rail signal handling within VCC range. |
| 5 (Y5) | Independent analog I/O | Electrically isolated when disabled; injection-current control prevents interference from overvoltage events. |
| 6 (E) | Active-LOW enable input | Global switch control: LOW enables channel selection; HIGH forces all switches into high-Z OFF-state. |
| 7 (n.c.) | Not connected | No internal bond; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or mechanical stress. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for analog and digital currents; requires low-impedance PCB plane connection. |
| 9 (S2) | Binary select input | MSB of 3-bit address; determines channel group (Y4–Y7 vs Y0–Y3) when E is active. |
| 10 (S1) | Binary select input | Middle bit of channel address; used with S0/S2 to uniquely select one of eight paths. |
| 11 (S0) | Binary select input | LSB of channel address; final bit resolving exact Yn–Z connection under E = LOW. |
| 12 (Y3) | Independent analog I/O | Low-numbered channel optimized for minimal trace length in layout-sensitive applications. |
| 13 (Y0) | Independent analog I/O | Default channel (S2:S1:S0 = 000); often used for calibration or reference signal routing. |
| 14 (Y1) | Independent analog I/O | Second channel in sequence; exhibits identical RON and leakage specs as Y0–Y7. |
| 15 (Y2) | Independent analog I/O | Third channel; shares same injection-current suppression behavior across full temperature range. |
| 16 (VCC) | Positive supply | Power rail for analog switch bias and logic interface; requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage on Yn or Z pins when the switch is disabled?
The 74HCT4851BQ,115 allows switch voltages (VSW) from −0.5 V to VCC + 0.5 V under clamping current limits (±20 mA). This means Yn or Z can safely handle signals up to 6.0 V when VCC = 5.5 V, provided injected current stays within spec - a key enabler for automotive sensor interfaces subject to load-dump transients. The injection-current control circuitry prevents corruption of the enabled channel's signal.
Does the 74HCT4851BQ,115 support rail-to-rail analog signal switching?
Yes, the 74HCT4851BQ,115 supports rail-to-rail analog signal switching within the 0 V to VCC range. Its switch architecture maintains low distortion and consistent RON across the full input voltage span, verified by static characteristics tables showing VI and VSW rated from 0 V to VCC. Signals at GND or VCC are passed without clipping when the channel is enabled and E is LOW.
How does the injection-current effect control in the 74HCT4851BQ,115 improve system-level reliability?
The injection-current effect control in the 74HCT4851BQ,115 limits output voltage variation (ΔVO) to ≤0.27 mV when 1 mA is injected into a disabled channel at VCC = 5.0 V. This eliminates the need for external diode/resistor networks traditionally used to clamp overvoltage on unused analog inputs - reducing BOM count, PCB area, and failure points in automotive and industrial systems exposed to electrical transients.
Can the 74HCT4851BQ,115 be used with 3.3 V logic controllers?
No - the 74HCT4851BQ,115 is TTL-compatible and specified only for VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V. Its input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) are optimized for 5 V systems. Driving S0/S1/S2/E from a 3.3 V microcontroller risks unreliable HIGH detection; a level shifter or logic buffer is required for interoperability. For native 3.3 V operation, consider the 74HC4851BQ variant instead.
What is the thermal performance advantage of the DHVQFN16 package in the 74HCT4851BQ,115?
The DHVQFN16 package of the 74HCT4851BQ,115 features a thermal-enhanced construction with 4.5 mW/K power derating above 60 °C - significantly better than SO16 (8 mW/K above 70 °C) or TSSOP16 (5.5 mW/K above 60 °C). This allows higher continuous power dissipation in compact, thermally dense layouts such as engine control units or portable test gear, extending operational margin in +125 °C ambient conditions.
