Product details
Overview
DG528EWN+ from Maxim Integrated is a monolithic, 8-channel CMOS analog multiplexer with on-board address latches and break-before-make switching, designed for microprocessor-controlled data-acquisition systems. It operates from ±4.5V to ±20V dual supplies or +5V to +30V single supply, features TTL/CMOS-compatible logic inputs, and delivers rDS(ON) < 400Ω at ±15V. Its primary circuit role is single-ended 1-of-8 signal routing in precision analog front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the DG528EWN+ datasheet, DG528EWN+ pinout, DG528EWN+ application, or DG528EWN+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its latchable address interface, guaranteed -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, wide analog signal range (±15V), low charge injection (4pC), and compatibility with legacy DG528/DG529 designs requiring stable channel isolation and timing control.
Technical Context
The DG528EWN+ integrates parallel N- and P-MOSFET switch structures controlled by a decoded BCD address (A2/A1/A0), enable (EN), write (WR), and reset (RS) logic. Its internal latches hold channel selection indefinitely after WR strobe, eliminating continuous address bus loading in µP systems.
Break-before-make operation ensures no momentary shorting between channels during switching, with tOPEN = 0.2µs. Digital thresholds remain stable across supply voltages (1.5V–1.6V), supporting reliable interfacing with TTL logic even at ±5V supplies while maintaining analog performance defined by V+–V– differential.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Signal Range | ±15V - supports full-rail switching of bipolar signals without clipping when powered from ±15V supplies |
| rDS(ON) | <400Ω (typ 270Ω) - ensures minimal voltage drop and gain error in precision sensor signal paths |
| Charge Injection | 4pC - limits voltage glitch on high-impedance nodes (e.g., sample-hold capacitors) during switching |
| Off Isolation | 68dB - provides strong channel-to-channel crosstalk suppression in multi-sensor acquisition |
| Switching Time | 0.4µs (tTRANS) - enables fast channel scanning in real-time data logging applications |
| Supply Range | ±4.5V to ±20V dual or +5V to +30V single - allows flexible power architecture integration including asymmetrical rails like +15V/–5V |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and avionics environments without derating |
Pinout & Package
Package: 18-pin Wide SO (Small Outline), 0.300-inch body width, RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (DG528EWN+).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RS) | Reset Strobe | Active-low signal that clears all latches and disables all channels to channel 1 default state |
| 2 (A1) | Address Input A1 | BCD bit for channel selection (A2/A1/A0 define 1-of-8 decoding); TTL/CMOS compatible |
| 3 (GND) | Analog/Digital Ground | Common reference for analog signals and digital logic; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 4 (V+) | Positive Supply | Accepts +5V to +30V (single) or up to +20V (dual); powers analog switches and level translators |
| 5–12 (S1–S8) | Analog Inputs | Eight single-ended source terminals; each connects to internal MOSFET switch pair when selected |
| 13 (D) | Common Output | Single analog output node shared by all eight channels; routed to selected Sx input |
| 14 (WR) | Write Strobe | Active-low latch enable: falling edge captures current A2/A1/A0 state into internal register |
| 15 (A0) | Address Input A0 | LSB of 3-bit address bus; determines channel 1/3/5/7 vs 2/4/6/8 selection with A1/A2 |
| 16 (EN) | Enable Control | Active-high global enable: disables all switches when low, useful for cascading multiple DG528s |
| 17 (V–) | Negative Supply | Accepts –4.5V to –20V (dual) or tied to GND for single-supply operation; defines lower analog rail |
| 18 (A2) | Address Input A2 | MSB of 3-bit address bus; combined with A1/A0 selects one of eight analog channels |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-board address latches | Eliminates need for external latch ICs or constant µP address bus drive, reducing PCB area and timing complexity |
| Break-before-make switching | Guarantees 0.2µs minimum open interval between channel disconnect and reconnect, preventing signal shorting |
| TTL/CMOS logic compatibility | Supports direct interface to 5V µP buses without level shifters; input thresholds stable from ±5V to ±20V supplies |
| Microprocessor-bus compatibility | WR/RS strobes align with standard µP write cycles; transparent mode allows non-latching operation like DG508A |
| Pin and electrical compatibility | Drop-in replacement for industry-standard DG528 and ADG528 families, enabling legacy design upgrades without layout change |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADG528AKRZ | Higher rDS(ON) (450Ω typ), wider temp range (–55°C to +125°C), CERDIP package | Better suited for extended-temperature military/aerospace use where SO packaging is insufficient | Select ADG528AKRZ only when CERDIP hermetic sealing or extreme temperature operation is required |
| DG528DN+ | 20-pin PLCC package, same electrical specs, –40°C to +85°C rating | Preferred for surface-mount designs requiring higher I/O density and thermal performance than SO | Choose DG528DN+ when board space constraints favor PLCC over wide SO or when reflow profile requires different thermal mass |
Compared with DG528EWN+, ADG528AKRZ offers superior temperature resilience but sacrifices SO package convenience and cost efficiency, while DG528DN+ provides identical functionality in a denser PLCC footprint-neither is pin-compatible, requiring PCB redesign, but both maintain functional equivalence in µP-latched 1-of-8 analog routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum analog signal voltage range supported by the DG528EWN+?
The DG528EWN+ supports an analog signal range of ±15V when operated from ±15V supplies. Its absolute maximum ratings allow V+ up to +44V and V– down to –44V referenced to ground, but the usable linear analog range is bounded by the supply rails - e.g., 0V to +30V with single +30V supply, or –15V to +15V with dual ±15V supplies. This range is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Analog-Signal Range" with a value of ±15V.
Does the DG528EWN+ require external pull-up resistors on its address lines (A2/A1/A0)?
No, the DG528EWN+ does not require external pull-up resistors on A2, A1, or A0. Its digital inputs are TTL and CMOS compatible with guaranteed input thresholds (VAL ≤ 0.8V, VAH ≥ 2.4V) and leakage current limited to ±1µA max. The device draws negligible current from address lines, and internal design ensures reliable logic recognition without external biasing - as verified in the "Address Input Current" specifications (IAL/IAH) and "Digital Interface Levels" section of the datasheet.
Can the DG528EWN+ operate from a single +12V supply?
Yes, the DG528EWN+ can operate from a single +12V supply. Per the datasheet, it supports single-supply operation from +5V to +30V. When using +12V, connect V– to GND and ensure the analog input signals remain within 0V to +12V. Digital thresholds remain functional (~1.6V), and rDS(ON) increases slightly versus ±15V operation but stays within specification (≤400Ω). This configuration is explicitly validated in the "Operation with Supply Voltages Other Than ±15V" section.
What is the purpose of the EN (Enable) pin on the DG528EWN+?
The EN (Enable) pin on the DG528EWN+ is an active-high control that globally disables all eight analog switches when pulled low. This feature allows software-controlled shutdown of signal paths - for example, to isolate unused channels during power-saving modes or to prevent signal coupling when cascading multiple DG528EWN+ devices to build larger multiplexers. Its behavior is documented in Table 1 (DG528 Logic States) and the "Detailed Description" section, where EN=0 forces all switches off regardless of address or WR state.
Is the DG528EWN+ pin-compatible with the ADG528A from Analog Devices?
No, the DG528EWN+ is not pin-compatible with the ADG528A. While both are 8-channel latchable analog multiplexers with similar functionality and electrical specs (e.g., rDS(ON), charge injection), the ADG528A uses a 16-pin TSSOP package with different pin assignments - notably consolidating RS/WR/EN functions and omitting separate S1–S8 pins in favor of a different layout. The DG528EWN+ uses an 18-pin Wide SO package with dedicated pins for all eight inputs (S1–S8), D, RS, WR, EN, A2/A1/A0, V+/V–, and GND, as shown in the Pin Configurations diagram on page 10 of the datasheet.
