Product details
Overview
DG304BDJ from Vishay Siliconix is a monolithic CMOS analog switch with four independent SPST channels, designed for low-level signal routing in instrumentation and process control systems. It supports ±15 V analog signal range, exhibits 30 Ω typical RDS(on), achieves 110 ns turn-on time, and operates with micropower consumption (30 nW), enabling use in battery-powered programmable gain amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the DG304BDJ datasheet, DG304BDJ pinout, DG304BDJ application, or DG304BDJ equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail analog voltage handling (-15 V to +15 V), guaranteed break-before-make switching, latchup immunity via epitaxial layer, and compatibility with CMOS logic levels (0 V / ≥11 V).
Technical Context
The DG304BDJ implements four independent single-pole single-throw (SPST) switches fabricated on Vishay's PLUS-40 CMOS process, delivering low power dissipation while maintaining fast switching performance. Each channel conducts bidirectionally when on and blocks up to the full supply voltage when off, with internal clamping diodes limiting analog signals exceeding V+ or V−.
It guarantees break-before-make operation only in DG307B per datasheet; DG304BDJ operates as independent SPST switches without inter-channel timing coordination. Digital inputs accept CMOS-compatible thresholds (≤3.5 V for logic 0, ≥11 V for logic 1), and single-supply operation is supported by tying V− to GND for positive-only applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Signal Range | ±15 V - supports full rail-to-rail signal handling across entire input voltage span |
| RDS(on) | 30 Ω typical - ensures minimal signal attenuation and distortion in precision analog paths |
| tON | 110 ns - enables high-speed multiplexing in data acquisition and test equipment |
| Supply Current (I+, I−) | ±0.001 µA typical - contributes negligible load to dual-supply rails in low-power systems |
| Off-Leakage (IS(off), ID(off)) | ±0.1 nA max - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces |
| Charge Injection | 30 pC - limits voltage glitch at switch output during state transitions |
| Off-Isolation (OIRR) | 62 dB at 500 kHz - suppresses crosstalk between inactive and active channels |
Pinout & Package
Package: 14-pin plastic DIP (dual in-line package), body width 7.62 mm (E), length 19.30 mm (D), height 5.08 mm (A), RoHS-compliant lead finish available as DG304BDJ-E3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4617CPD+ | Single-supply only (1.8–12 V); 60 Ω RDS(on); 35 ns tON; no dual-supply support | Not suitable for ±15 V rail-to-rail signal routing; limited to unipolar systems | Select when ultra-fast switching in low-voltage battery systems outweighs dual-supply requirement |
| ADG1404BRUZ | 4-channel SPST; ±15 V rating; 4.7 Ω RDS(on); 125 ns tON; requires external VLOGIC pin | Lower on-resistance improves gain accuracy but higher cost and tighter layout constraints | Choose for precision instrumentation where <5 Ω RDS(on) and guaranteed 12-bit linearity are critical |
Compared with MAX4617CPD+ and ADG1404BRUZ, DG304BDJ uniquely balances ±15 V analog range, 30 Ω RDS(on), and micropower operation in a legacy-compatible DIP package-making it optimal for retrofitting industrial analog signal conditioning without redesigning power architecture.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage the DG304BDJ can handle?
The DG304BDJ supports an analog signal range of ±15 V when operated with V+ = +15 V and V− = −15 V. Signals exceeding these rails are clamped by internal diodes, with forward current limited to 30 mA. Operation outside absolute maximum ratings risks permanent damage, and the device is rated for continuous analog voltages from V− to V+ under normal conditions.
Does the DG304BDJ support single-supply operation?
Yes, the DG304BDJ supports single-supply operation by connecting V− to GND. In this configuration, the analog input range becomes 0 V to V+, with V+ typically set to +15 V. Logic inputs retain CMOS compatibility (≤3.5 V for low, ≥11 V for high), and all specifications-including RDS(on) and leakage-remain valid per the datasheet's single-supply test conditions.
Is the DG304BDJ pin-compatible with DG306BDJ or DG307BDJ?
No, DG304BDJ is not pin-compatible with DG306BDJ or DG307BDJ. While all three share the same 14-pin DIP footprint, their internal channel configurations differ: DG304BDJ has two independent SPST switches (S1/D1, S2/D2), DG306BDJ has four SPST switches (S1–S4/D1–D4), and DG307BDJ implements two SPDT switches. Pin functions for pins 10–13 differ across variants, requiring PCB redesign for substitution.
What is the purpose of the NC (no-connect) pin on DG304BDJ?
Pin 14 of the DG304BDJ is designated NC (no connect) and is internally unconnected. Vishay recommends leaving it unconnected or grounding it to reduce noise coupling-however, it must never be driven or used as a supply or signal path. This pin exists for mechanical compatibility with other devices in the DG3xxB family and does not affect DG304BDJ functionality.
How does the DG304BDJ prevent latchup in harsh environments?
The DG304BDJ incorporates an epitaxial layer in its PLUS-40 CMOS fabrication process, which eliminates parasitic thyristor structures that cause latchup. This design ensures immunity to destructive latchup events even under transient overvoltage or ESD stress, making DG304BDJ suitable for industrial environments where reliability under electrical stress is critical.
