Product details
Overview
DG2518DQ-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a dual SPDT analog switch IC designed for high-bandwidth signal routing in portable and interface applications. It operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, delivers 3 Ω on-resistance at 4.2 V, achieves 242 MHz –3 dB bandwidth, and supports 1.6 V logic-compatible control - enabling USB/UART and audio/video switching in battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the DG2518DQ-T1-E3 datasheet, DG2518DQ-T1-E3 pinout, DG2518DQ-T1-E3 application, or DG2518DQ-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance matching (0.2 Ω), off-isolation (–51 dB @ 10 MHz), charge injection (2 pC), rail-to-rail analog swing, and MSOP-10 lead-free packaging with matte tin terminations.
Technical Context
The DG2518DQ-T1-E3 integrates two independent SPDT switches in a single monolithic CMOS die, each with break-before-make switching action and matched RON across channels (ΔRON ≤ 0.4 Ω). Its sub-micron process enables low power consumption (<1 µA supply current) while maintaining full rail analog signal handling (0 V to V+).
Control inputs accept 1.6 V logic thresholds across the full 1.8–5.5 V supply range, eliminating level-shifting needs. Dynamic performance includes 12 ns typical turn-on time (V+ = 4.2 V), 242 MHz small-signal bandwidth, and <1 ns break-before-make interval - critical for glitch-free data and audio path switching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 5.5 V - supports direct connection to Li-ion battery rails and 3.3 V/5 V logic domains without regulators. |
| On-Resistance (RON) | 3 Ω at V+ = 4.2 V - minimizes insertion loss and signal attenuation in high-fidelity audio and USB 2.0 paths. |
| –3 dB Bandwidth | 242 MHz - enables clean switching of USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and composite video signals without roll-off. |
| Off-Isolation | –51 dB at 10 MHz - suppresses crosstalk between active and inactive signal paths in multi-channel routing. |
| Charge Injection | 2 pC - limits voltage glitch on switched nodes, preserving DC accuracy in precision sensor or ADC front-end multiplexing. |
| Logic Threshold | 1.6 V high-level compatible - ensures reliable control from 1.8 V I/O banks without external translators. |
| RON Matching | 0.2 Ω typical - maintains channel-to-channel signal integrity in differential or stereo applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: MSOP-10 (3.0 mm × 4.9 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), lead-free with 100 % matte tin terminations per JEDEC MSL3 standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 10 | V+ | Positive supply input - must be decoupled locally; supports 1.8–5.5 V operation. |
| 2, 9 | COM1 / COM2 | Common analog terminals - bidirectional, rail-to-rail capable signal ports for each SPDT switch. |
| 3, 8 | NO1 / NO2 | Normally open analog terminals - connect to COM when IN = logic high. |
| 4, 7 | NC1 / NC2 | Normally closed analog terminals - connect to COM when IN = logic low. |
| 5, 6 | IN1 / IN2 | Digital control inputs - 1.6 V logic-compatible; drive internal CMOS gates directly. |
| GND (Pin 8) | Ground reference | Analog and digital ground return - must be low-impedance and tied to system AGND/DGND plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Break-before-make switching | Guarantees no momentary short between NO and NC paths, preventing signal glitches during state transitions. |
| Rail-to-rail analog signal handling | Supports full 0 V to V+ input/output swing - preserves dynamic range in audio, video, and sensor interfaces. |
| Low on-resistance flatness (1 Ω) | Ensures consistent RON across the entire analog voltage range - critical for THD-sensitive applications. |
| High off-isolation (–71 dB @ 1 MHz) | Minimizes signal bleed-through between inactive channels - essential for noise-sensitive mixed-signal PCB layouts. |
| Ultra-low leakage (±10 nA max) | Reduces error in high-impedance sensor multiplexing and battery-monitoring circuits over temperature. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual SPDT analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4688EUB+ | Higher RON (4.5 Ω typ), lower bandwidth (190 MHz), 2.7–5.5 V supply only. | Limited to 2.7 V minimum supply - unsuitable for 1.8 V battery systems. | Choose MAX4688EUB+ only if operating exclusively above 2.7 V and higher RON is acceptable. |
| ADG732BRUZ | 32-channel, not dual SPDT; 4 Ω RON; requires separate VLOGIC pin for level translation. | Over-specified channel count and package size (24-TSSOP) for simple dual-path routing. | Select ADG732BRUZ only when scalable multi-channel expansion is required beyond two SPDTs. |
Compared with MAX4688EUB+ and ADG732BRUZ, DG2518DQ-T1-E3 uniquely combines 1.8 V operation, 3 Ω RON, and 242 MHz bandwidth in an MSOP-10 footprint - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-powered USB/audio routing where supply headroom and signal fidelity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by DG2518DQ-T1-E3?
DG2518DQ-T1-E3 supports a full rail-to-rail analog signal range from 0 V to V+, where V+ can be set between 1.8 V and 5.5 V. This means that with a 3.3 V supply, the device passes signals from 0 V to 3.3 V without clipping or distortion - a key requirement for audio, video, and USB differential pair routing. Absolute maximum analog voltage is V+ + 0.3 V, but operation beyond V+ degrades performance and risks latch-up.
Does DG2518DQ-T1-E3 require external level-shifting circuitry when driven by 1.8 V logic?
No, DG2518DQ-T1-E3 does not require external level shifting when driven by 1.8 V logic. Its input high threshold is specified at 1.4 V (min) for V+ = 3 V and 2.0 V (min) for V+ = 5 V, and it is explicitly rated as "+1.6 V logic compatible" across the full 1.8–5.5 V supply range. This allows direct interfacing with 1.8 V GPIOs from modern application processors and microcontrollers without additional components.
How does the DG2518DQ-T1-E3 pin configuration differ from DG2517DQ-T1-E3?
DG2518DQ-T1-E3 and DG2517DQ-T1-E3 share identical pinouts and packages but differ in internal switch topology: DG2518DQ-T1-E3 connects IN1/IN2 to normally closed (NC1/NC2) paths when logic low, whereas DG2517DQ-T1-E3 connects them to normally open (NO1/NO2) paths under the same condition. The truth table confirms complementary behavior - a logic '0' turns ON NC paths in DG2518DQ-T1-E3 and ON NO paths in DG2517DQ-T1-E3 - enabling design flexibility for active-low vs. active-high control schemes.
What thermal derating applies to DG2518DQ-T1-E3 in MSOP-10 package?
For the MSOP-10 package, DG2518DQ-T1-E3 requires thermal derating above 70 °C ambient: power dissipation must be reduced by 4.0 mW per °C rise. At 85 °C, the maximum allowable power drops from the rated 320 mW (at ≤70 °C) to 260 mW. This reflects the package's thermal resistance and must be accounted for in high-density PCB layouts or sealed enclosures where junction temperature could exceed safe limits.
Is DG2518DQ-T1-E3 suitable for switching USB 2.0 differential signals?
Yes, DG2518DQ-T1-E3 is suitable for USB 2.0 differential signal switching. Its 242 MHz –3 dB bandwidth exceeds the 240 MHz fundamental frequency content of 480 Mbps USB 2.0 data, and its 3 Ω RON with 0.2 Ω matching minimizes skew and insertion loss across D+ and D– paths. Measured crosstalk (–55 dB @ 10 MHz) and off-isolation (–51 dB @ 10 MHz) further ensure signal integrity - confirmed in Vishay's application guidance for USB signal routing.
