Product details
Overview
DG441DY+ from Maxim Integrated is a quad, normally-closed (NC), single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch IC designed for precision signal routing in bipolar or single-supply systems. It delivers 85Ω max on-resistance, 4Ω max on-resistance matching between channels, <5nA off-leakage at +85°C, 10pC max charge injection, and rail-to-rail analog signal handling from ±4.5V to ±20V or +10V to +30V supplies - enabling use in battery-operated test equipment and military radio front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the DG441DY+ datasheet, DG441DY+ pinout, DG441DY+ application, or DG441DY+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed rDS(ON) flatness (9Ω max), TTL/CMOS logic compatibility, exposed-pad SO package thermal performance, and verified NC switching behavior across industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The DG441DY+ implements four independent SPST switches with normally closed configuration, each featuring matched silicon-gate MOSFET structures fabricated on a 44V process. Its control logic is inverted: logic low enables conduction, logic high disables all channels.
It supports dual-supply operation (±4.5V to ±20V) with V− referenced to ground or single-supply mode (+10V to +30V) with V− tied to GND. Analog signal range spans rail-to-rail, and internal ESD protection meets 2000V per Method 3015.7 without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| rDS(ON) | 85Ω max - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in precision analog paths |
| rDS(ON) Match | 4Ω max - guarantees consistent gain/attenuation across all four channels in multi-path systems |
| Charge Injection | 10pC max - limits voltage glitch on sample-hold capacitors during switching |
| Off-Leakage Current | <5nA at +85°C - preserves accuracy in high-impedance sensor interfaces and long-duration hold modes |
| tON/tOFF | <250ns / <170ns - supports fast multiplexing in automated test equipment and real-time signal routing |
| Analog Signal Range | Rail-to-rail (±15.5V max with ±16.5V supplies) - enables full dynamic range utilization in ±15V systems |
| Supply Range | +10V to +30V (single) or ±4.5V to ±20V (dual) - accommodates legacy industrial rails and portable battery architectures |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin narrow SO (SOIC-N), lead(Pb)-free, with exposed pad (EP) connected to V+ for enhanced thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 16, 9, 8 | IN1–IN4 | Logic inputs controlling channel enable/disable; active-low for NC function |
| 2, 15, 10, 7 | D1–D4 | Drain terminals - analog output side of each SPST switch |
| 3, 14, 11, 6 | S1–S4 | Source terminals - analog input side of each SPST switch |
| 4 | V− | Negative supply rail; must be connected even in single-supply mode (tied to GND) |
| 5 | GND | Ground reference for logic and substrate; separate from analog signal ground path |
| 12 | V+ | Positive supply rail; also connected to substrate and exposed pad (EP) |
| 13 | N.C. | No internal connection - must remain unconnected or grounded per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Normally Closed (NC) Configuration | Ensures fail-safe signal continuity during power loss or logic fault in critical monitoring paths |
| Guaranteed rFLAT(ON) | 9Ω max over full analog range - maintains linearity in audio and instrumentation amplifier feedback loops |
| TTL/CMOS Logic Compatibility | Accepts 0.8V/2.4V thresholds - eliminates need for level-shifting when interfacing with microcontrollers and FPGAs |
| Low Power Consumption | 1.65mW max - extends battery life in portable test gear and handheld avionics displays |
| ESD Tolerance | 2000V min per Method 3015.7 - reduces field failure risk in unshielded lab and maintenance environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG441BRZ | Same NC quad SPST topology but 100Ω rDS(ON), 25pC charge injection, no exposed pad | Higher on-resistance and charge injection limit use in precision sample-hold or low-noise sensor paths | Select ADG441BRZ only if footprint compatibility with SO-16 is required and 85°C operation is not needed |
| TS5A3154DCUR | Single-supply only (+1.65V to +5.5V), 0.9Ω rDS(ON), but rated only to +85°C and lacks bipolar support | Not suitable for ±15V instrumentation or military radios; optimized for low-voltage portable consumer devices | Choose TS5A3154DCUR for USB-powered diagnostics tools where ultra-low on-resistance outweighs supply flexibility |
Compared with ADG441BRZ and TS5A3154DCUR, the DG441DY+ uniquely combines industrial temperature rating, bipolar supply support, NC fail-safe behavior, and guaranteed 4Ω channel matching - making it irreplaceable in high-reliability analog routing where signal fidelity and operational safety are co-prioritized.

FAQ
What is the logic polarity of the DG441DY+ control inputs?
The DG441DY+ features inverted logic: a logic low (≤0.8V) on IN1–IN4 closes the corresponding SPST switch (NC behavior), while a logic high (≥2.4V) opens it. This ensures default continuity during power-up or controller reset - a critical safety feature in monitoring and control systems using the DG441DY+.
Does the DG441DY+ support true rail-to-rail analog signal operation?
Yes, the DG441DY+ supports rail-to-rail analog signal handling: with ±15V supplies, the analog range extends from −15.5V to +15.5V; with +12V single supply, it spans 0V to +11.5V. This capability is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics tables and Typical Operating Characteristics plots for the DG441DY+ across its full temperature range.
How is the exposed pad (EP) on the DG441DY+ SO package used?
The exposed pad on the DG441DY+ SO package must be soldered and electrically connected to V+, not left floating or grounded. It serves as an additional V+ connection and primary thermal path - improving power dissipation by ~25% versus standard SO-16. The datasheet explicitly warns against using EP as the sole V+ connection; main V+ pins must still be bonded.
Can the DG441DY+ operate with unbalanced supplies like +24V and −5V?
Yes, the DG441DY+ supports unbalanced supplies: the absolute maximum rating requires |V+ − V−| ≤ 44V, and operation is specified for any combination meeting that constraint and staying within individual rail limits (e.g., V+ = +24V, V− = −5V yields 29V differential - well within spec). This flexibility is documented in the Applications Information section of the DG441DY+ datasheet.
What is the maximum allowable analog signal voltage for the DG441DY+ at +85°C?
At +85°C, the DG441DY+ maintains full specification compliance up to ±15.5V analog signal swing when powered with ±16.5V supplies. Off-leakage remains <5nA and rDS(ON) stays within 85Ω max - verified by 100% production testing at hot temperature and correlation at +25°C per Note 5 in the DG441DY+ datasheet.
