Product details
Overview
HI3-0549-5Z from Intersil is a 4-channel differential analog multiplexer with active overvoltage protection, ±15V analog signal range, 70VP-P fault tolerance, and guaranteed rON matching. It operates from 0°C to 75°C in a 16-lead PDIP package and is used in industrial telemetry systems where external sensor inputs may exceed supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the HI3-0549-5Z datasheet, HI3-0549-5Z pinout, HI3-0549-5Z application, or HI3-0549-5Z equivalent, key selection criteria include differential channel count, break-before-make switching, ±15V analog range, 12pF off-output capacitance, and 100nA max off-leakage at full temperature range.
Technical Context
The HI3-0549-5Z implements a CMOS-DI die architecture with integrated overvoltage clamping circuitry that isolates faulted channels without disturbing signal integrity on other paths. Its dual differential outputs (OUT A/OUT B) are controlled by two address bits (A0, A1) and an enable input, supporting four independent differential channel selections.
Each input presents 1kΩ resistance during supply loss, and digital inputs tolerate continuous faults up to 4V beyond either supply rail. The device uses level-shifted TTL-compatible logic inputs referenced to VREF and features guaranteed rON matching across all channels for precision instrumentation applications.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
HI3-0549-5Z is supplied in a 16-lead plastic dual-in-line package (PDIP), Pb-free per RoHS, with 0°C to 75°C operating temperature range and JEDEC MS-001 compliant outline E16.3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 16 | +VSUPPLY / -VSUPPLY | Positive and negative analog supply rails - must be decoupled locally to maintain signal fidelity under fault conditions |
| 2, 15 | IN 1A / IN 1B | Differential input pair 1 - routed through same switch path to preserve common-mode rejection |
| 3, 14 | IN 2A / IN 2B | Differential input pair 2 - isolated from other channels during overvoltage events |
| 4, 13 | IN 3A / IN 3B | Differential input pair 3 - shares identical rON and leakage specs as all other channels |
| 5, 12 | IN 4A / IN 4B | Differential input pair 4 - enables full 4-channel differential MUX functionality |
| 6 | OUT A | Positive output of selected differential pair - referenced to GND and compatible with downstream op-amps |
| 7 | OUT B | Negative output of selected differential pair - maintains polarity relationship with OUT A |
| 8 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling into sensitive analog paths |
| 9 | A0 | LSB address input - TTL-compatible, accepts 0.8V/4V thresholds for microcontroller interfacing |
| 10 | A1 | MSB address input - controls channel selection along with A0 per truth table |
| 11 | ENABLE | Active-high channel enable - disables all switches when low, reducing system power and leakage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous overvoltage rating for HI3-0549-5Z analog inputs?
The HI3-0549-5Z analog inputs withstand continuous ±33V overvoltage relative to supplies, corresponding to 70VP-P tolerance. This is verified under full temperature range (0°C to 75°C) with ±15V supplies and is enabled by internal active clamping circuitry that isolates faulted channels without disrupting others. HI3-0549-5Z maintains this rating without external components.
Does HI3-0549-5Z support break-before-make switching, and why does it matter?
Yes, HI3-0549-5Z guarantees break-before-make switching behavior, preventing momentary short-circuits between differential input pairs during channel transitions. This eliminates signal glitches and cross-talk in precision measurement systems. The specification is validated per datasheet Figure 7, with tOPEN ≥80ns at 25°C. HI3-0549-5Z relies on this feature for reliable operation in automated test equipment and industrial PLCs.
What is the rON matching specification for HI3-0549-5Z, and how is it tested?
HI3-0549-5Z guarantees ≤7% ΔrON between any two channels at 25°C, measured with VOUT = ±10V and IOUT = 100μA (datasheet Note 2). This matching is process-controlled using Intersil's 44V dielectrically isolated CMOS technology and is confirmed during production test. HI3-0549-5Z achieves this without post-package trimming, ensuring consistency across its full temperature range.
Can HI3-0549-5Z operate with logic inputs driven directly from a 3.3V microcontroller?
Yes - HI3-0549-5Z accepts TTL-compatible logic levels: VAH = 4.0V min and VAL = 0.8V max. A 3.3V microcontroller GPIO meets the low-threshold requirement but falls short of the 4.0V high threshold. To ensure reliable operation, use a 1kΩ pull-up resistor to +5V on each address/enable line, as recommended in datasheet Note 8. HI3-0549-5Z functions correctly with this configuration.
What is the off-output leakage current specification for HI3-0549-5Z at maximum temperature?
At full operating temperature (75°C), HI3-0549-5Z specifies ≤100nA maximum off-output leakage current (ID(OFF)). This value is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table (page 9) under "-5, -9" column for HI-549 devices. The low leakage preserves signal integrity in high-impedance measurement paths and enables accurate DC-coupled applications. HI3-0549-5Z maintains this spec across its entire 0°C to 75°C range.
