Product details
Overview
DG442DJ from Intersil is a monolithic quad SPST CMOS analog switch with TTL/CMOS-compatible digital inputs, 85Ω max ON resistance, 250ns max tON, and ±20V analog signal range. It operates from single (5–34V) or split (±5V to ±22V) supplies and serves as a drop-in replacement for DG202 in precision audio routing and data acquisition front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the DG442DJ datasheet, DG442DJ pinout, DG442DJ application, or DG442DJ equivalent, key selection criteria include its logic-inverted control scheme (IN = HIGH → OFF), low 1pC typical charge injection, 60dB OFF isolation at 1MHz, and PDIP-16 package compatibility with legacy through-hole test fixtures and industrial control PCBs.
Technical Context
The DG442DJ implements four independent bilateral analog switches using a high-voltage silicon-gate CMOS process with epitaxial layer latch-up protection. Its logic polarity is inverted relative to DG441: a logic HIGH (≥2.4V) disables all channels, while LOW (≤0.8V) enables them.
It supports rail-to-rail analog signal switching up to ±20V with matched ON resistance across channels and minimal variation over ±5V input range. Supply voltage flexibility includes asymmetric operation up to 44V differential, with V+ max = +34V and V− max = −25V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ON Resistance | 85Ω max at +25°C (ensures <0.1% gain error in 10kΩ precision resistor networks) |
| Switch Turn-On Time | 250ns max (supports ≤2MHz multiplexed sampling in data acquisition systems) |
| Analog Signal Range | ±20V max (handles full-scale industrial sensor outputs without external level-shifting) |
| Charge Injection | ±1pC typical (reduces hold-step error to <10μV in 1nF sample-and-hold circuits) |
| OFF Isolation | 60dB at 1MHz (prevents crosstalk between adjacent audio channels or sensor inputs) |
| Supply Voltage Range | Single: +5V to +34V; Dual: ±5V to ±22V (enables direct interface with ±15V op-amps and 24V PLC I/O) |
| Logic Compatibility | TTL/CMOS inputs with 0.8V low / 2.4V high thresholds (interoperates with 5V microcontrollers and FPGAs) |
Pinout & Package
DG442DJ is housed in a 16-lead plastic dual-in-line package (PDIP) per JEDEC MS-001-BB, 0.300" wide body, with 0.100" lead pitch. Pin 12 is NC (no internal connection); substrate connection is tied to V+ (pin 13).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8, 9, 16 | IN1–IN4 | Active-low logic controls: HIGH disables, LOW enables corresponding switch |
| 2, 7, 10, 15 | D1–D4 | Drain (output) terminals - bidirectional, matched to source pins |
| 3, 6, 11, 14 | S1–S4 | Source (input) terminals - fully interchangeable with drain for AC signals |
| 4 | V− | Negative supply rail - must be ≤−25V referenced to GND |
| 5 | GND | Logic common reference - separate from analog ground in mixed-signal layouts |
| 13 | V+ | Positive supply and substrate tie - limits max V+ to +34V vs GND |
| 12 | NC | No internal connection - must remain unconnected per datasheet |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inverted logic control | Enables fail-safe OFF state during MCU reset or power-up sequencing |
| Bilateral analog switching | Supports bidirectional signal flow (e.g., sensor excitation and return in bridge circuits) |
| Low charge injection (±1pC) | Minimizes droop and settling time in precision sample-and-hold topologies |
| 44V max supply differential | Permits use with high-voltage industrial transducers without external level shifters |
| Pb-free PDIP option | RoHS-compliant through-hole package compatible with wave soldering (not reflow) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad SPST analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG442BRZ | Same logic polarity (inverted), but 40Ω max rDS(ON) and 125ns tON; requires ±15V or 12V single supply only | Better performance in high-speed DAQ, but lacks DG442DJ's 34V single-supply capability | Select ADG442BRZ when speed and ON-resistance outweigh supply flexibility needs |
| MAX4618ESE+ | Non-inverting logic (HIGH = ON); 60Ω max rDS(ON); 100ns tON; rated for 36V supply max | Simpler MCU interface (no logic inversion), but incompatible with existing DG202/DG442 firmware | Choose MAX4618ESE+ for new designs requiring direct GPIO control without software inversion |
Compared with ADG442BRZ and MAX4618ESE+, the DG442DJ offers unique 34V single-supply operation and proven drop-in compatibility with DG202 footprints, making it optimal for industrial retrofits where supply architecture and layout reuse are critical.

FAQ
What is the logic polarity of DG442DJ compared to DG441DJ?
The DG442DJ uses inverted logic control: a logic HIGH (≥2.4V) turns all switches OFF, while a logic LOW (≤0.8V) turns them ON. This is the exact opposite of DG441DJ, which activates switches on HIGH. The DG442DJ pinout and electrical specs are otherwise identical to DG441DJ, making them functionally interchangeable except for control signal polarity. Always verify MCU output states during power-up to prevent unintended conduction in DG442DJ circuits.
Can DG442DJ operate from a single 24V supply?
Yes, DG442DJ supports single-supply operation from +5V to +34V. At +24V, it delivers ≤100Ω rDS(ON) over temperature and maintains full ±20V analog signal range. The GND pin (pin 5) serves as the logic reference, while V− (pin 4) must be tied to GND in single-supply configurations. Ensure digital inputs remain within 0.8V/2.4V thresholds relative to GND, and confirm thermal dissipation stays within 90°C/W θJA limit for PDIP packaging.
Is pin 12 (NC) required to be left floating on DG442DJ?
Yes, pin 12 has no internal connection and must remain unconnected in all DG442DJ layouts. Soldering, grounding, or tying it to any voltage violates the datasheet specification and may cause unpredictable behavior or increased leakage. This NC designation is consistent across all DG441/DG442 variants in PDIP, SOIC, and TSSOP packages, and applies identically to DG442DJ.
How does DG442DJ handle analog signals exceeding ±15V?
DG442DJ supports analog signals up to ±20V when powered from ±15V supplies, verified per Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Specifications tables. Operation beyond ±15V requires strict adherence to supply voltage limits: V+ must not exceed +34V and V− must not fall below −25V relative to GND. Exceeding these rails risks permanent damage. For ±20V signal handling, use ±15V supplies and ensure all external circuitry respects the 44V max differential rating.
What is the maximum allowable charge injection for DG442DJ in sample-and-hold designs?
DG442DJ specifies ±1pC typical charge injection (Q), measured with CL = 1nF and RG = 0Ω. This value directly determines hold-step error: for a 1nF capacitor, ±1pC yields ±1mV step. In precision applications, keep total injected charge below 0.5pC by limiting analog slew rate and using guard traces. The DG442DJ's low Q-achieved via optimized channel geometry-makes it suitable for 16-bit+ sample-and-hold circuits where DG202-level injection would degrade accuracy.
