Product details
Overview
DG412CJ from Maxim Integrated is a quad, normally open (NO), single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch IC designed for bidirectional signal routing in precision analog systems. It features 35Ω max on-resistance, <5nA off-leakage at +85°C, and 150ns max turn-on time, operating from ±4.5V to ±20V bipolar or +10V to +30V single supply - ideal for test equipment and audio signal routing.
For engineers reviewing the DG412CJ datasheet, DG412CJ pinout, DG412CJ application, or DG412CJ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed on-resistance matching (≤3Ω), rail-to-rail analog signal handling (±15V), TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, and ESD tolerance of ≥2000V per Method 3015.7.
Technical Context
The DG412CJ implements four independent SPST switches with NO configuration, each featuring matched channel on-resistance (ΔrDS(ON) ≤ 3Ω) and flat on-resistance over full signal range (ΔrFLAT(ON) ≤ 4Ω). Its silicon-gate 44V process enables robust operation across wide supply ranges and temperature extremes.
Switching is controlled by TTL/CMOS-compatible digital inputs referenced to VL (typically +5V), with logic thresholds fixed at VINH = 2.4V and VINL = 0.8V. Charge injection is tightly controlled at ≤10pC, supporting low-distortion sample-and-hold and multiplexing in high-fidelity analog paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance (rDS(ON)) | 45Ω max at ±15V - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision DC-coupled paths |
| On-Resistance Match | 3Ω max between channels - critical for multi-channel instrumentation requiring consistent gain/phase response |
| Off-Leakage Current | <5nA at +85°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor interfaces and long-hold sample-and-hold circuits |
| Turn-On Time (tON) | 150ns max - supports fast switching in automated test equipment and real-time signal routing |
| Analog Signal Range | ±15V - enables full rail-to-rail operation with ±15V supplies, covering industrial and military voltage standards |
| ESD Tolerance | 2000V min per Method 3015.7 - provides built-in protection against handling damage without external components |
| Supply Range | ±4.5V to ±20V bipolar or +10V to +30V single - offers flexibility in legacy and mixed-supply system designs |
Pinout & Package
DG412CJ is housed in a 16-pin plastic DIP package (0.300" width), RoHS-compliant and rated for 0°C to +70°C operation. Pin spacing follows JEDEC MS-012 standard with 0.100" lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN1–IN4 (Pins 1, 2, 15, 16) | Digital control input | Active-high logic inputs driving respective SPST switches; compatible with TTL/CMOS levels when VL = +5V |
| D1–D4 (Pins 3, 4, 13, 14) | Analog drain terminal | One side of each switch; connects to load or downstream signal path; bidirectional conduction supported |
| S1–S4 (Pins 5, 6, 11, 12) | Analog source terminal | Other side of each switch; connects to source or upstream signal path; symmetric with D terminals |
| V+ (Pin 13) | Positive supply rail | Bias for internal circuitry and switch channel; tied to substrate; must be ≥ V− by ≤44V |
| V− (Pin 4) | Negative supply rail | Reference for bipolar operation; clamps signals exceeding V− via internal diodes (limit forward current) |
| GND (Pin 5) | Circuit ground reference | Logic and analog return path; separate from power supply returns in mixed-signal layouts |
| VL (Pin 10) | Logic supply voltage | Sets logic threshold; +5V for TTL compatibility, V+ for CMOS-level inputs; decoupling recommended |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad SPST NO configuration | Four independent, non-latching switches with break-before-make timing - eliminates signal shorting during state transitions |
| Rail-to-rail analog handling | Supports input signals from V− to V+ - enables direct interfacing with op-amp outputs and DACs without level-shifting |
| Low charge injection (≤10pC) | Minimizes voltage glitch on sampled capacitors - essential for sub-12-bit accuracy in data acquisition systems |
| Guaranteed on-resistance flatness | Δ4Ω max over full analog range - maintains consistent gain and THD across signal amplitude in audio routing |
| TTL/CMOS logic compatibility | Fixed 2.4V/0.8V thresholds with VL = +5V - simplifies interface to microcontrollers and FPGAs without level translators |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG412BRZ | 44V abs max rating; 35Ω rDS(ON); 100ns tON; requires VL = V+ for CMOS logic | Higher speed but no guaranteed rDS(ON) match; less suitable for multi-channel gain-matched systems | Select ADG412BRZ when faster switching dominates over channel matching requirements |
| TS5A3157DCKR | Single-supply only (+1.65V to +5.5V); 0.75Ω rDS(ON); 10ns tON; 5V logic only | Optimized for low-voltage portable gear; incompatible with ±15V or high-voltage industrial rails | Choose TS5A3157DCKR for battery-powered audio accessories where supply headroom is constrained |
Compared with DG412CJ, ADG412BRZ offers faster switching but lacks guaranteed on-resistance matching, while TS5A3157DCKR delivers ultra-low on-resistance at the cost of high-voltage capability - making DG412CJ the optimal choice for industrial test and military-grade analog routing where voltage range, matching, and ruggedness are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by DG412CJ?
DG412CJ supports analog signals from V− to V+, with absolute maximum ratings allowing V+ up to +44V and V− down to −44V relative to GND. Under standard ±15V dual-supply operation, the usable analog range is ±15V - fully rail-to-rail - enabling direct connection to op-amp outputs and DACs without external level-shifting circuitry.
Does DG412CJ require external pull-up resistors on its IN pins?
No, DG412CJ does not require external pull-up resistors on IN1–IN4 pins. Its TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs have defined thresholds (VINH = 2.4V, VINL = 0.8V) and low input current (±0.5µA max), allowing direct drive from microcontrollers or logic gates. Pull-ups are unnecessary unless floating-state prevention is required in specific system-level fault conditions.
Can DG412CJ operate with unbalanced supplies such as +24V and −5V?
Yes, DG412CJ supports unbalanced supplies like +24V and −5V, provided the difference between V+ and V− does not exceed +44V and both remain within absolute maximum ratings. This flexibility allows integration into legacy systems with asymmetric rails, though on-resistance and leakage will reflect the actual applied voltages per the device's electrical characteristics curves.
How is charge injection specified for DG412CJ, and why does it matter?
DG412CJ specifies charge injection as ≤10pC maximum, measured with CL = 1.0nF, VGEN = 0V, and RGEN = 0Ω. This parameter directly impacts voltage glitch magnitude on hold capacitors in sample-and-hold circuits - lower charge injection preserves DC accuracy and reduces settling time, making DG412CJ suitable for 12-bit+ data acquisition systems.
What is the thermal performance of DG412CJ in the 16-pin DIP package?
In its 16-pin plastic DIP package, DG412CJ has a thermal resistance θJA of 10.53mW/°C above +70°C, with 842mW maximum continuous power dissipation at TA = +70°C. Derating is linear beyond that point, ensuring reliable operation in ambient temperatures up to +70°C without forced airflow - typical for benchtop test equipment and industrial control panels.
