Product details
Overview
DG409DQ-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a dual 4-channel differential analog multiplexer IC designed to route one of four differential input pairs (S1a/S1b through S4a/S4b) to a common dual output (Da/Db) under 2-bit binary address control (A0, A1), with break-before-make switching, ±20 V dual supply or +5 V to +36 V single supply operation, and 100 Ω typical on-resistance - used in precision data acquisition and audio routing systems.
For engineers reviewing the DG409DQ-E3 datasheet, DG409DQ-E3 pinout, DG409DQ-E3 application, or DG409DQ-E3 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications including RDS(on) = 100 Ω, tTRANS = 160 ns, Q = 20 pC, ISUPPLY = 10 μA, and -75 dB off-isolation - critical for low-glitch, low-power, high-voltage analog signal switching designs.
Technical Context
The DG409DQ-E3 implements a CMOS-based dual 4:1 differential switch architecture with independent channel enable (EN) and address decoding logic. Its break-before-make timing (tOPEN ≥ 10 ns) prevents momentary crosstalk between adjacent differential channels, while TTL-compatible inputs (VINH ≥ 2.4 V, VINL ≤ 0.8 V) ensure robust interfacing with microcontrollers and FPGAs across -40 °C to +85 °C.
Designed in a 44 V silicon-gate CMOS process with epitaxial latchup protection, it supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling up to ±20 V (dual) or +36 V (single), with guaranteed 125 Ω max RDS(on), <5 nA max leakage at full temperature range, and 1 kΩ load-dependent off-isolation of -75 dB at 1 MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 100 Ω typical, 125 Ω max - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths |
| Charge injection | 20 pC - limits glitch amplitude in sampled-data systems using capacitive hold circuits |
| Transition time | 160 ns - enables reliable switching in >1 MHz multiplexed data acquisition | Supply range | +5 V to +36 V single or ±5 V to ±20 V dual - supports wide industrial and battery-powered operating conditions |
| Off-isolation | -75 dB at 1 MHz - suppresses crosstalk between inactive differential channels |
| Leakage current | ±5 nA max at full temperature - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor interfaces |
| Enable timing | tON(EN) = 150 ns max, tOFF(EN) = 150 ns max - allows synchronized global reset across stacked devices |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package: 5.0 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.2 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, lead (Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant per -E3 suffix.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 13, 14, 15, 16 | Differential source inputs (S1a–S4a, S1b–S4b) | Accept complementary analog signals; each pair routed together to preserve differential integrity |
| 5, 6 | Differential outputs (Da, Db) | Deliver selected differential pair; symmetric layout minimizes skew and common-mode imbalance |
| 7, 8 | Address inputs (A0, A1) | 2-bit binary select: 00→S1, 01→S2, 10→S3, 11→S4 - TTL-compatible, no external pull-ups required |
| 9 | Enable (EN) | Active-high global disable; forces all switches OFF - essential for stacking and power sequencing |
| 10 | GND | Analog/digital reference common; must be low-impedance to minimize noise coupling into differential paths |
| 11, 12 | Supply rails (V+, V-) | Support bipolar or unipolar operation; V+ can be up to +36 V, V- down to -25 V relative to GND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Break-before-make switching | Guaranteed tOPEN ≥ 10 ns prevents transient shorting between differential channels during address changes |
| Dual-supply rail-to-rail operation | Handles analog signals from V- to V+ without clipping - critical for ±10 V sensor front-ends |
| Low charge injection (20 pC) | Reduces sampling error in ADC-driven systems using external hold capacitors |
| TTL-compatible control inputs | Direct interface with 3.3 V/5 V logic without level shifters - simplifies FPGA/microcontroller integration |
| Epitaxial latchup protection | Immune to destructive latchup under overvoltage or ESD stress - enhances field reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual differential analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4679ETP+ | 16-pin TQFN, 45 Ω RDS(on), 10 pC charge injection, -40 °C to +85 °C | Lower on-resistance and charge injection, but only supports ±5 V dual supply (no +36 V single supply) | Preferred for ultra-low-distortion audio where supply headroom is limited to ±5 V |
| ADG1409BRUZ | 16-pin TSSOP, 4.7 Ω RDS(on), 23 pC charge injection, -40 °C to +125 °C | Far lower RDS(on) and extended temperature range, but higher supply current (200 μA) and cost | Chosen when sub-10 mΩ channel matching and automotive-grade temp range are mandatory |
Compared with DG409DQ-E3, MAX4679ETP+ offers better signal fidelity at lower voltages but sacrifices supply flexibility, while ADG1409BRUZ delivers superior on-resistance and temperature resilience at higher quiescent power and BOM cost - making DG409DQ-E3 optimal for cost-sensitive industrial DAQ with wide supply adaptability.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for DG409DQ-E3?
The DG409DQ-E3 has an absolute maximum V+ to V− rating of 44 V, with operational dual-supply range up to ±20 V and single-supply range up to +36 V. Exceeding these limits risks permanent damage; internal clamping diodes limit forward current to 20 mA. Always observe derating above 75 °C (7.6 mW/°C for TSSOP).
Does DG409DQ-E3 support single-supply operation with ground-referenced signals?
Yes, DG409DQ-E3 supports true single-supply operation from +5 V to +36 V with V− tied to GND. In this configuration, analog signals can swing from 0 V to V+, and the device maintains 100 Ω typical RDS(on), 180 ns transition time, and <5 nA leakage - validated per single-supply specs in the datasheet (V+ = 12 V, V− = 0 V).
How does the break-before-make feature work in DG409DQ-E3?
DG409DQ-E3 guarantees a minimum break interval (tOPEN ≥ 10 ns) between deactivation of one differential channel and activation of the next during address changes. This prevents momentary shorts between Sx/Sy pairs, eliminating crosstalk-induced glitches - confirmed by Fig. 4 test circuit and specified across -40 °C to +85 °C.
What is the thermal performance of DG409DQ-E3 in TSSOP-16 package?
In TSSOP-16, DG409DQ-E3 has a maximum power dissipation of 600 mW at 25 °C, derated linearly at 7.6 mW/°C above 75 °C. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is ~167 °C/W. For continuous operation at +85 °C ambient, total power must remain below ~520 mW to keep junction temperature ≤125 °C.
Can DG409DQ-E3 be used in overvoltage-protected circuits?
Yes - DG409DQ-E3 tolerates analog signals exceeding V+ or V− via internal clamping diodes (per Note a). For robust overvoltage protection, Vishay recommends adding series 1N4148 diodes on V+ and V− pins (Fig. 10), which float the supply rails while preserving low RDS(on) and leakage - extending safe analog range to (V− −1 V) to (V+ +1 V).
