Product details
Overview
DG333ALDJ-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a precision quad SPDT analog switch IC designed for high-accuracy signal routing in instrumentation and portable systems. It features 25 Ω typical on-resistance, <1 μA supply current, ±22 V dual-supply operation, and break-before-make switching - enabling rail-to-rail analog signal control in battery-powered test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the DG333ALDJ-E3 datasheet, DG333ALDJ-E3 pinout, DG333ALDJ-E3 application, or DG333ALDJ-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include low charge injection (10 pC), matched on-resistance (<2 Ω), fast switching (175 ns tON), and micro-power operation for extended runtime in portable instrumentation.
Technical Context
The DG333ALDJ-E3 integrates four independent SPDT switches fabricated in Vishay's HVSG-2 CMOS process, supporting both bipolar (±4 V to ±22 V) and unipolar (5 V to 40 V) supplies. Each channel conducts bidirectionally with symmetrical on-resistance flatness (ΔRDS(on) < 3 Ω over ±5 V).
Its micro-power architecture centers on VL pin (Pin 15) - dedicated logic supply input enabling <1 μW static power consumption. Internal epitaxial layer prevents latchup, and improved charge injection compensation minimizes transient errors during capacitor-switching operations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance | 25 Ω typ. - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision gain-setting or filter-switching paths |
| Supply current | <1 μA typ. - enables multi-year battery life in handheld meters and portable data loggers |
| Charge injection | 10 pC max. - limits voltage glitch in switched-capacitor filters and sample-hold circuits |
| Switching time | 175 ns tON, 145 ns tOFF - supports >1 MHz clock rates in SC filter applications |
| Analog range | ±22 V - accommodates industrial sensor signals and audio line-level swing without external level-shifting |
| Off-isolation | 72 dB at 1 MHz - suppresses crosstalk between adjacent channels in multi-channel DAQ systems |
| Leakage current | 0.25 nA max. at 85°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance pH or thermocouple front-ends |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin plastic DIP (0.300" wide), JEDEC MS-001 compliant, lead (Pb)-free with -E3 suffix indicating matte tin termination.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19 | Switch inputs (IN1–IN4, S1–S8) | CMOS/TTL-compatible digital control lines; active-high logic selects normally-open path |
| 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 20 | Analog terminals (D1–D4, S1–S8) | Bidirectional analog I/O pins; each SPDT pair shares common source (Sx) and two drains (Dx, Dx+1) |
| 15 | VL (Logic supply) | Dedicated 5 V logic rail input - isolates digital switching noise from analog signal paths and enables ultra-low quiescent power |
| 19 | GND | Analog/digital reference ground - must be star-connected to minimize ground bounce in mixed-signal layouts |
| 20, 1 | V+, V− | Independent analog supply rails - support rail-to-rail signal handling and eliminate need for external bias networks |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Micro-power operation | VL pin enables <1 μW static power - critical for always-on sensor nodes and wearable medical devices |
| Rail-to-rail analog range | Supports signals from V− to V+ - eliminates level-shifter ICs in ±15 V op-amp signal chains |
| Break-before-make switching | 5 ns minimum tD - prevents momentary short-circuits during channel reconfiguration in multiplexed ADC front-ends |
| On-resistance matching | <2 Ω max. mismatch between channels - maintains amplitude consistency across 4-channel simultaneous sampling |
| ESD tolerance | >2 kV HBM - withstands handling in benchtop test environments without additional protection circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4618ESE+ | Higher on-resistance (45 Ω), no VL pin, 2.7 V–12 V single-supply only | Limited to low-voltage portable designs; unsuitable for ±15 V industrial signal conditioning | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision and dual-supply flexibility |
| ADG1434BRUZ | Lower leakage (0.15 nA), higher price, 16-pin TSSOP only, no VL pin | Better for ultra-high-Z medical sensors but lacks micro-power capability for battery longevity | Prefer for lab-grade instrumentation where leakage dominates error budget over power |
Compared with DG333ALDJ-E3, MAX4618ESE+ trades precision and supply flexibility for lower cost in consumer-grade portable gear, while ADG1434BRUZ improves leakage performance at the expense of power efficiency and package compatibility - making DG333ALDJ-E3 optimal for battery-operated industrial test tools requiring both accuracy and longevity.

FAQ
What is the function of Pin 15 (VL) on the DG333ALDJ-E3?
Pin 15 is the dedicated logic supply (VL) input unique to the DG333AL variant. It accepts a 5 V supply to power internal digital control circuitry independently from analog rails (V+/V−), enabling <1 μA quiescent current and isolating switching noise from sensitive analog paths. This feature is absent on the standard DG333A, where logic is powered from V+.
Can DG333ALDJ-E3 operate from a single 12 V supply?
Yes, DG333ALDJ-E3 supports unipolar operation from 5 V to 40 V. At V+ = 12 V and V− = 0 V, it delivers 35 Ω typical on-resistance and 90 ns turn-on time. The analog signal range spans 0 V to 12 V, and VL must still be supplied at 5 V. Full ±22 V bipolar operation requires separate V+ and V− rails.
How does DG333ALDJ-E3 achieve break-before-make timing?
DG333ALDJ-E3 guarantees a minimum 5 ns break interval (tD) between opening one switch path and closing the alternate path within each SPDT section. This is implemented via internal delay circuitry in the level-shift/gate-drive stage, preventing momentary shorts during reconfiguration - critical for protecting downstream amplifiers in multiplexed sensor interfaces.
Is DG333ALDJ-E3 pin-compatible with DG333ADJ-E3?
Yes, DG333ALDJ-E3 and DG333ADJ-E3 share identical 20-pin DIP footprints, pin functions, and electrical interface. The only functional difference is DG333ALDJ-E3's VL pin (Pin 15), which is NC (no connect) on DG333ADJ-E3. Both parts accept the same control logic and analog signal ranges, enabling drop-in replacement where micro-power operation is required.
What is the maximum continuous current rating per switch in DG333ALDJ-E3?
DG333ALDJ-E3 supports 30 mA continuous current per switch channel under derated conditions. At ambient temperatures above 75 °C, power dissipation must be reduced by 12 mW/°C. Absolute maximum peak pulsed current is 100 mA (1 ms, 10% duty cycle), applicable for transient overload scenarios such as ESD event clamping.
