Product details
Overview
DG308ACY+ from Maxim Integrated is a quad SPST analog switch with normally-open (NO) configuration, designed for precision signal routing in mixed-signal systems. It delivers 60Ω typical on-resistance, <130ns turn-on time, and supports ±5V to ±20V dual supplies or +5V to +30V single supply - enabling use in sample-and-hold circuits and military radio front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the DG308ACY+ datasheet, DG308ACY+ pinout, DG308ACY+ application, or DG308ACY+ equivalent, key selection criteria include analog voltage range (±15V), off-isolation (78dB), channel leakage (<100pA at +25°C), and CMOS-compatible logic inputs - all critical for low-distortion, high-reliability switching in test equipment and guidance systems.
Technical Context
The DG308ACY+ implements monolithic CMOS switch architecture with substrate-connected V+ pin, enabling robust 44V breakdown voltage and 30V peak-to-peak blocking capability. Its four independent channels operate with matched timing (tON ≤ 200ns, tOFF ≤ 150ns) and low charge injection (≤10pC), preserving signal integrity in sampling paths.
Logic inputs accept standard CMOS voltage levels across full temperature range (0°C to +70°C), while analog terminals (S/D) tolerate rail-to-rail signals within supply limits. The device maintains low rDS(ON) variation over temperature and supply voltage - confirmed by typical curves for ±5V to ±15V operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (rDS(ON)) | 60Ω typical - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision amplifier/PGA signal paths |
| Turn-on time (tON) | 130ns typical - enables sub-microsecond channel selection for high-speed data acquisition |
| Off-isolation (OIRR) | 78dB at 500kHz - suppresses crosstalk between active and inactive channels in multiplexed systems |
| Analog signal range | ±15V - supports full-range bipolar signal switching without clipping when powered at ±15V |
| Supply voltage range | ±5V to ±20V dual or +5V to +30V single - allows flexible integration into legacy and modern power architectures |
| Channel leakage (ID(OFF)/IS(OFF)) | ±100pA max at +25°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sample-and-hold and sensor interface nodes |
| Charge injection | ≤10pC - minimizes voltage glitch on hold capacitors, reducing settling time and droop error |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin narrow SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), surface-mount, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1–IN4 (Pins 1, 8, 9, 16) | CMOS logic control inputs | Enable/disable individual switches; compatible with 3.3V/5V logic; low input current (<1µA) |
| S1–S4 (Pins 3, 6, 11, 14) | Source terminals (analog inputs) | Accept bidirectional analog signals up to ±15V; tied internally to substrate via V+ |
| D1–D4 (Pins 2, 7, 10, 15) | Drain terminals (analog outputs) | Deliver switched analog signals; symmetric conduction path with S pins |
| V+ (Pin 13) | Positive supply / substrate connection | Bias for P-well; must be ≥ V- and ≤ +44V; defines upper analog rail in single-supply mode |
| V- (Pin 4) | Negative supply | Defines lower analog rail; required for dual-supply operation; can be GND in single-supply config |
| GND (Pin 5) | Ground reference | Logic ground and return path for supply currents; separate from analog signal reference |
| N.C. (Pin 12) | No-connect terminal | Not bonded or connected internally; must remain unconnected on PCB |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4618ESE+ | Single SPST, 35Ω rDS(ON), 10ns tON - faster but single-channel; requires external logic for quad function | Best for space-constrained, ultra-fast single-path switching; not drop-in for quad routing | Select when speed > channel count; redesign needed for 4-channel replacement |
| ADG1404BRUZ | Quad SPST, 4.7Ω rDS(ON), ±15V supply, but higher 15pC charge injection and 2.5V logic threshold | Superior on-resistance for low-voltage precision systems; less suitable for legacy 5V CMOS control | Choose for <1Ω error budgets where logic interface allows level-shifting |
Compared with DG308ACY+, MAX4618ESE+ trades channel density for speed and lower on-resistance, while ADG1404BRUZ offers dramatically lower rDS(ON) at the cost of higher charge injection and stricter logic voltage requirements - making DG308ACY+ optimal for balanced performance in industrial and defense analog routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage the DG308ACY+ can switch?
The DG308ACY+ supports analog signals from V− to V+, with absolute maximum ratings of −15V to +15V when operated at ±15V supplies. Its 44V breakdown voltage allows safe blocking of up to 30V peak-to-peak signals even when off - verified per Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Always ensure analog inputs stay within supply rails to prevent latch-up or damage.
Can DG308ACY+ operate from a single +12V supply?
Yes, DG308ACY+ supports single-supply operation from +5V to +30V. When using +12V, connect V− to GND and route analog signals between 0V and +12V. Note that rDS(ON) increases slightly versus dual-supply mode, and switching speed degrades modestly - both confirmed in Typical Operating Characteristics graphs on page 4 of the datasheet.
Is DG308ACY+ pin-compatible with DG308ACJ or DG308ACK?
Yes, DG308ACY+ shares identical pinout and electrical specifications with DG308ACJ (16-pin DIP) and DG308ACK (16-pin CERDIP). All three are functionally identical - differing only in package type (narrow SOIC vs. plastic DIP vs. ceramic DIP) and thermal characteristics. No PCB layout changes are required when substituting among these variants.
What is the typical leakage current of DG308ACY+ at +85°C?
At TA = +85°C, DG308ACY+ exhibits ≤100nA drain-off (ID(OFF)) and source-off (IS(OFF)) leakage - per Electrical Characteristics table, Column DG30_C/D, MAX row. This is 100× higher than the ±100pA typical at +25°C, but remains well below 1µA, preserving accuracy in high-Z sample-and-hold nodes even at elevated temperatures.
Does DG308ACY+ require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its logic inputs?
No, DG308ACY+ does not require external biasing on IN1–IN4. Its CMOS inputs draw <1µA leakage current and recognize logic-high above 3.5V (for DG308A) with rail-to-rail compatibility - allowing direct connection to microcontroller GPIOs or FPGA outputs without pull resistors. Input thresholds are specified in the Truth Table section of the datasheet.
