Product details
Overview
DG418LEUA from Maxim Integrated is a precision CMOS single-pole/single-throw (SPST), normally open analog switch optimized for signal routing in ±15V or +12V systems. It delivers 35Ω max on-resistance, <5nA off-leakage at +85°C, and 175ns max turn-on time, enabling high-fidelity audio and data acquisition paths in battery-powered test equipment and communications interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the DG418LEUA datasheet, DG418LEUA pinout, DG418LEUA application, or DG418LEUA equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed RON matching (≤3Ω), rail-to-rail analog signal handling (±15V or 0–+36V), +3V logic compatibility (VIH = 2.0V, VIL = 0.8V), and µMAX-8 package suitability for space-constrained industrial control modules.
Technical Context
The DG418LEUA implements a fully differential CMOS transmission gate architecture with matched P- and N-channel devices to achieve low, flat on-resistance across the full analog range. Its digital input stage uses threshold-limited Schmitt-trigger-like behavior to ensure robust +3V TTL/CMOS compatibility without external level-shifting.
It supports dual-supply operation (±4.5V to ±20V) and single-supply operation (+9V to +36V), with power-supply sequencing-free startup-eliminating the need for controlled V+, VL, then V− ramping required by legacy DG418 variants. Charge injection is limited to 15pC (typ), critical for sample-and-hold accuracy.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance (RON) | 35Ω max at ±15V supplies - ensures minimal signal attenuation and gain error in precision instrumentation paths |
| RON Matching | 3Ω max between channels - enables accurate differential signal switching without channel-to-channel gain mismatch |
| Off-Leakage Current | <5nA at +85°C - preserves voltage integrity in high-impedance sample-and-hold or sensor front-ends over temperature |
| Turn-On/Off Time | 175ns / 185ns max - supports >1MHz multiplexed data acquisition without timing-induced distortion |
| Analog Signal Range | Rail-to-rail: (V− − 0.3V) to (V+ + 0.3V) - allows full utilization of supply rails for maximum dynamic range |
| Logic Compatibility | +3V TTL/CMOS: VIH = 2.0V, VIL = 0.8V - interfaces directly with microcontrollers and FPGAs without level shifters |
| Supply Range | Single: +9V to +36V; Dual: ±4.5V to ±20V - supports wide-range industrial and military power architectures |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin µMAX (3mm × 3mm, 0.5mm pitch), rated for −40°C to +85°C operation. RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 COM | Analog common terminal | Signal path junction point; connects to NO when enabled (normally open configuration) |
| 2 NC | No connection | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
| 3 GND | Digital logic ground reference | Reference for IN logic input; separate from analog V− but should be low-impedance bonded in PCB layout |
| 4 V+ | Analog positive supply | Bias source for internal P-channel devices; sets upper analog rail limit |
| 6 IN | Logic control input | +3V-compatible digital enable; high = ON (closed), low = OFF (open) for DG418L function |
| 7 V− | Analog negative supply | Bias source for internal N-channel devices; sets lower analog rail limit |
| 8 NO | Analog normally open terminal | Switch output that connects to COM only when IN = high; isolated otherwise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| +3V logic-compatible inputs | VIH = 2.0V / VIL = 0.8V thresholds eliminate external level-shifting circuitry for MCU/FPGA interfacing |
| Power-supply sequencing-free operation | No required V+, VL, V− ramp order - simplifies power management design and avoids latch-up risk during cold-start |
| Rail-to-rail analog signal handling | Supports signals from (V− − 0.3V) to (V+ + 0.3V) - maximizes usable input range without clipping in ±15V systems |
| Guaranteed RON flatness | 4Ω max variation across signal range - maintains consistent gain and linearity in precision measurement paths |
| Low charge injection | 15pC typical - minimizes voltage glitch on hold capacitors, critical for sub-12-bit ADC sample-and-hold accuracy |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX318EUA | Same pinout, identical µMAX-8 package; RON = 35Ω max but higher charge injection (25pC typ) and no guaranteed RON matching spec | Acceptable for non-critical audio routing where leakage <10nA suffices; not recommended for precision sample-and-hold | Select MAX318EUA only if legacy footprint reuse is mandatory and RON matching is not required. |
| ADG1419BRMZ | SPDT configuration (NC/NO), 4.7Ω RON, but requires ≥4.5V logic drive and lacks +3V compatibility; SO-10 package | Suitable for bidirectional signal routing in 5V systems; incompatible with 3.3V microcontroller direct drive | Choose ADG1419BRMZ when lower on-resistance and SPDT functionality outweigh footprint change and logic-level constraints. |
Compared with MAX318EUA and ADG1419BRMZ, the DG418LEUA uniquely combines +3V logic compatibility, guaranteed RON matching ≤3Ω, and µMAX-8 footprint-making it the only option for compact, low-voltage, high-matching analog multiplexing in extended-temperature industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by the DG418LEUA?
The DG418LEUA supports rail-to-rail analog signals from (V− − 0.3V) to (V+ + 0.3V). With ±15V dual supplies, this yields a usable range of −15.3V to +15.3V; with +36V single supply, it supports 0V to +36.3V. This specification is guaranteed across the full −40°C to +85°C operating temperature range and enables full utilization of supply headroom in precision systems without signal clipping.
Does the DG418LEUA require specific power-supply sequencing during startup?
No-the DG418LEUA features power-supply sequencing-free operation. Unlike legacy DG418 switches, it does not require V+, VL, then V− ramping to avoid latch-up. Any power-up sequence is acceptable as long as absolute maximum ratings (e.g., V+ ≤ 44V referenced to V−) are not exceeded. This simplifies power architecture design in field-deployable equipment where supply timing is uncontrolled.
What is the guaranteed on-resistance matching between DG418LEUA units, and why does it matter?
The DG418LEUA guarantees on-resistance matching of ≤3Ω between units under identical conditions (V+ = +15V, V− = −15V, ICOM = 10mA, VNO = ±10V, TA = −40°C to +85°C). This tight matching ensures consistent gain and minimal channel-to-channel error in multi-channel data acquisition systems, eliminating the need for per-channel calibration in medical or test instrumentation applications.
Can the DG418LEUA operate from a single +12V supply, and what performance changes occur?
Yes-the DG418LEUA operates from a single +12V supply (V+ = +12V, V− = 0V), supporting analog signals from 0V to +12.3V. In this configuration, RON increases to 125Ω max (vs. 35Ω max at ±15V), and switching times rise to 400ns max tON. However, logic compatibility (VIH = 2.0V, VIL = 0.8V) and leakage (<5nA at +85°C) remain unchanged, making it viable for cost-sensitive 12V industrial controls where speed is secondary to simplicity.
Is the DG418LEUA pin-compatible with the older DG418D or DG418J packages?
No-the DG418LEUA uses an 8-pin µMAX package (3mm × 3mm), whereas DG418D is 8-pin SO and DG418J is 8-pin plastic DIP. While all share identical pin functions and logic behavior, physical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and PCB footprints differ. Migration requires board redesign; however, electrical performance (RON, leakage, timing) of DG418LEUA exceeds legacy versions, justifying layout updates for new designs.
