Product details
Overview
DG408CY+ from Maxim Integrated is a precision 1-of-8 CMOS analog multiplexer/demultiplexer designed for bidirectional signal routing in data-acquisition and test systems. It delivers guaranteed 100Ω max on-resistance, 8Ω max channel-to-channel matching, and 15pC max charge injection, operating across ±5V to ±20V dual supplies or +5V to +30V single supply. Its rail-to-rail analog signal handling and TTL/CMOS-compatible digital control make it suitable for high-fidelity audio routing and sample-and-hold circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DG408CY+ datasheet, DG408CY+ pinout, DG408CY+ application, or DG408CY+ equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance flatness (9Ω max), input off-leakage (<5nA at +85°C), enable timing (tON(EN) ≤ 150ns), and ESD robustness (>2000V per MIL-STD-883 Method 3015.7).
Technical Context
The DG408CY+ implements a CMOS transmission-gate architecture with integrated decoder logic for 3-bit address selection (A0–A2) and active-low enable (EN). Its switch design ensures symmetrical conduction and low distortion across the full analog signal range (±15V with ±15V supplies).
It features guaranteed dynamic performance: break-before-make interval of 85ns to 175ns, transition time ≤250ns, and crosstalk suppression of –92dB at 100kHz. All leakage parameters are 100% tested at maximum hot temperature and correlated at +25°C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG408BRZ | Higher on-resistance (120Ω typ), wider temp range (−40°C to +85°C), same 16-pin SOIC package | Lower bandwidth and higher distortion in high-fidelity audio paths due to higher RON | Select ADG408BRZ only if extended temperature operation is required and 20Ω higher RON is acceptable. |
| TS5A3159DCKR | Single 1-of-2 switch, lower voltage rating (+5.5V max), smaller SC70-6 package, 0.75Ω typical RON | Not functionally equivalent-requires redesign for 1-of-8 topology and cannot support ±15V signals | TS5A3159DCKR is unsuitable as a drop-in replacement; consider only for new low-voltage, space-constrained designs. |
Compared with ADG408BRZ and TS5A3159DCKR, the DG408CY+ uniquely balances high-voltage capability (±20V), precision matching (8Ω), and proven pin-compatibility with legacy DG408 footprints-making it optimal for upgrading existing test and measurement hardware without layout revision.

FAQ
What supply voltages does the DG408CY+ support?
The DG408CY+ operates with ±5V to ±20V dual supplies or +5V to +30V single supply. When using single supply, connect V− to GND. Unbalanced supplies (e.g., +24V/−5V) are also supported, provided the difference between V+ and V− does not exceed +44V. The DG408CY+ maintains specified performance across this full range, including guaranteed on-resistance and leakage parameters.
Is the DG408CY+ pin-compatible with the original DG408?
Yes, the DG408CY+ is a pin-compatible plug-in upgrade for the industry-standard DG408. It shares identical pin configuration, electrical interface, and functional behavior-including address decoding (A0–A2), enable (EN), and analog I/O layout-allowing direct replacement without PCB modification. The DG408CY+ improves upon the original with tighter specifications for on-resistance matching, flatness, and charge injection.
What is the maximum analog signal range for DG408CY+ at ±15V supplies?
At ±15V dual supplies, the DG408CY+ supports a full rail-to-rail analog signal range of ±15V-that is, from −15V to +15V referenced to V− and V+. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Analog Signal Range" with V+ = +15V and V− = −15V. Performance remains within specification across this entire range, including guaranteed on-resistance flatness of 9Ω max.
How does charge injection affect sample-and-hold performance with DG408CY+?
Charge injection of ≤15pC in the DG408CY+ directly determines the voltage step error imposed on the hold capacitor during channel switching. For example, with a 1000pF hold capacitor, the resulting glitch is ≤15mV-enabling sub-12-bit accuracy without additional correction. This value is guaranteed across temperature and supply conditions, making the DG408CY+ suitable for medium-speed, high-precision data acquisition where hold-step error must be minimized.
Does DG408CY+ require external protection diodes for overvoltage?
No, external protection diodes are not required for normal operation within absolute maximum ratings. However, if power-supply sequencing cannot be controlled (e.g., V+ applied after V−), Maxim recommends adding two small-signal diodes in series with V+ and V− pins for overvoltage protection. This reduces analog signal range by 1V but preserves DG408CY+'s core switch characteristics-low RON, low leakage, and guaranteed matching-without altering device functionality.
