Product details
Overview
DG303ACWE+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual SPDT CMOS analog switch optimized for low-power, precision signal routing in bipolar supply systems. It features <50Ω on-resistance, 150ns turn-on time, ±15V analog signal range, break-before-make switching, and TTL/CMOS-compatible control inputs - enabling reliable operation in portable instrumentation and programmable gain amplifier circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DG303ACWE+ datasheet, DG303ACWE+ pinout, DG303ACWE+ application, or DG303ACWE+ equivalent, key selection criteria include dual SPDT topology, wide ±5V to ±18V supply support, low charge injection (12pC), guaranteed 0°C to +70°C operation, and SOIC-W16 package compatibility with legacy DG303 designs.
Technical Context
The DG303ACWE+ implements monolithic CMOS switch architecture with latchup-proof construction and substrate-isolated P-well/N-well design. Its dual SPDT configuration provides independent channel control with true break-before-make timing (50ns minimum interval), preventing signal shorting during state transitions.
It supports full-rail analog signal switching from V− to V+, operates with single-supply (V− = GND) or dual-supply (±5V to ±18V) configurations, and maintains <50Ω RDS(ON) across the entire analog input range - critical for low-distortion sample/hold and telemetry multiplexing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Signal Range | ±15V - enables full-rail signal switching without clipping in ±15V op-amp systems |
| On-Resistance (RDS(ON)) | <50Ω - ensures minimal voltage drop and gain error in precision gain-setting paths |
| Turn-On Time (tON) | 150ns - supports sampling rates up to ~3 MHz in fast data acquisition |
| Charge Injection | 12pC - limits settling error in high-impedance sample/hold capacitors (e.g., 10nF yields <1.2mV glitch) |
| Off-Leakage Current | <±0.1nA at ±14V - preserves accuracy in µA-level sensor signal paths over temperature |
| Supply Range | ±5V to ±18V - accommodates industrial ±12V and test equipment ±15V rails |
| Logic Compatibility | TTL and CMOS - interfaces directly with microcontrollers, FPGAs, and legacy logic without level shifters |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead Wide SOIC (SOIC-W), 7.6mm × 10.3mm body, 1.27mm lead pitch, RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 15, 16 | No Connect (N.C.) | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
| 3 (D1), 4 (S1), 5 (IN1) | Channel 1 Drain, Source, Control | SPDT path: D1 ↔ S1 controlled by IN1 (logic high = ON); isolated from Channel 2 |
| 6 (GND), 7 (V−) | Ground, Negative Supply | V− sets lower analog rail; GND is digital reference - separate grounding recommended for noise isolation |
| 8 (IN2), 9 (S2), 10 (D2) | Channel 2 Control, Source, Drain | Independent SPDT path: D2 ↔ S2 controlled by IN2; no crosstalk with Channel 1 (74dB isolation) |
| 11, 12, 13, 14 | No Connect (N.C.) | Unused die pads; electrically isolated - no routing or thermal tie required |
| 16 (V+) | Positive Supply | Sets upper analog rail; substrate/case connected to V+ - requires stable, low-noise supply |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Break-Before-Make Switching | Guaranteed 50ns minimum interval prevents momentary shorting between D1/S1 and D2/S2 paths |
| Low Charge Injection (12pC) | Minimizes voltage glitch on hold capacitors - critical for 12-bit+ ADC front-end sample/holds |
| Matched On-Resistance (≤10%) | Ensures consistent gain scaling across dual channels in PGA and differential multiplexer applications |
| Latchup-Proof Construction | Immune to destructive latchup under overvoltage or ESD stress - validated per JEDEC JESD78 |
| Single-Supply Operation | V− tied to GND enables +10V to +30V unipolar operation - simplifies power architecture in portable gear |
Applications
| Portable Instrumentation | Low-Power Sample/Hold Circuits |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG403BRZ | Higher RDS(ON) (60Ω typ), slower tON (200ns), no break-before-make guarantee | Less suitable for high-speed sample/hold; acceptable for static gain switching | Prefer DG303ACWE+ when break-before-make timing or sub-50Ω RDS(ON) is required |
| TS5A23157DGSR | Lower voltage rating (5.5V max), CMOS-only logic, smaller 10-pin VSSOP package | Only viable for low-voltage battery systems (<5.5V); incompatible with ±12V/±15V rails | Select DG303ACWE+ for industrial or test equipment requiring ±15V analog range and robust bipolar operation |
Compared with ADG403BRZ and TS5A23157DGSR, the DG303ACWE+ uniquely delivers guaranteed break-before-make timing, <50Ω on-resistance at ±15V, and full-rail analog switching - making it the only option among the three qualified for precision dual SPDT routing in ±15V instrumentation and telemetry systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for DG303ACWE+?
The DG303ACWE+ is rated for operation from 0°C to +70°C, as indicated by the "C" suffix in its part number. This commercial-grade temperature range is validated per Maxim's electrical specifications and absolute maximum ratings tables, and applies to all DC and dynamic parameters including on-resistance, leakage, and switching times.
Does DG303ACWE+ support single-supply operation?
Yes, DG303ACWE+ supports single-supply operation by connecting V− to GND. When configured this way, it operates with V+ ranging from +10V to +30V and maintains full analog signal switching from 0V to V+. The device retains its <50Ω on-resistance and 12pC charge injection performance under these conditions, as confirmed in Table 1 of the datasheet.
Is DG303ACWE+ pin compatible with older DG303 variants?
Yes, DG303ACWE+ is pin compatible with other DG303 variants in the same SOIC-W16 package, including DG303CWE and DG303BWE. Pin functions, spacing, and thermal pad layout match exactly - enabling drop-in replacement without PCB modification, provided the temperature grade and supply requirements align with the target application.
What is the maximum analog signal voltage DG303ACWE+ can switch?
DG303ACWE+ can switch analog signals from V− to V+, supporting a full ±15V range when powered with ±15V supplies. With single-supply operation (V− = GND), the analog range extends from 0V to V+, up to +30V. These limits are defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics sections, and apply regardless of logic input voltage.
How does break-before-make timing work in DG303ACWE+?
DG303ACWE+ guarantees a minimum 50ns break-before-make interval between channel switching events, as measured per the test circuit in Figure 2 of the datasheet. This ensures that one SPDT path fully opens before the other closes - eliminating transient shorts in sensitive signal paths such as sample/hold capacitors or programmable gain networks.
