Product details
Overview
ISL43L420IR from Intersil is a quad SPDT (dual DPDT) analog switch optimized for low-voltage, low-RON signal routing in battery-powered systems. It operates from a single +1.1V to +4.5V supply, delivers 0.24Ω RON at 4.3V, 8ns tON/5ns tOFF, and supports 1.8V logic compatibility with +3V supply - enabling high-fidelity audio/video switching and ASIC I/O expansion in mobile phones.
For engineers reviewing the ISL43L420IR datasheet, ISL43L420IR pinout, ISL43L420IR application, or ISL43L420IR equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (16-lead 3×3 QFN), confirmed quad SPDT topology with break-before-make timing, RON flatness ≤0.05Ω, ESD ratings (9kV on COM), and direct STG3699 pin compatibility - all validated against FN6098 Rev 1.00.
Technical Context
The ISL43L420IR implements a fully committed quad SPDT architecture: four independent switches, each with one common (COM), one normally open (NO), and one normally closed (NC) terminal. Its CMOS transmission gate design uses internal level shifters to translate 1.8V logic inputs into full-rail analog switching control across the entire 1.1V–4.5V V+ range.
Guaranteed break-before-make timing (≥2ns) prevents signal shorting during state transitions. All analog paths exhibit matched RON (ΔRON ≤0.05Ω) and minimal RON flatness variation (≤0.05Ω), ensuring consistent insertion loss and THD <0.003% across the 20Hz–20kHz audio band.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RON @ 4.3V | 0.24Ω - enables <1mΩ channel mismatch in precision sensor multiplexing |
| tON/tOFF @ 4.3V | 8ns/5ns - supports >100MHz small-signal bandwidth with -3dB at 104MHz |
| Analog Signal Range | 0V to V+ - allows rail-to-rail signal handling without external biasing |
| RON Flatness | ≤0.05Ω - maintains amplitude accuracy across full input voltage swing |
| ESD Rating (COM) | 9kV HBM - protects against electrostatic discharge in handheld assembly and field use |
| Logic Compatibility | 1.8V CMOS with +3V supply - interfaces directly with modern baseband processors |
| Supply Range | +1.1V to +4.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0V), dual-cell NiMH (2.4V), and 1.8V logic domains |
Pinout & Package
ISL43L420IR is housed in a 16-lead 3×3 mm QFN package (PKG DWG L16.3x3) with exposed thermal pad connected to GND. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner (index mark); pin numbering follows standard QFN counter-clockwise sequence.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive power supply input | Supplies internal CMOS switches and level shifters; must be applied before signals to prevent ESD diode conduction |
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for analog and digital circuits; paddle must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and EMI performance |
| IN1–IN4 | Digital control inputs | Active-high logic; VINH ≥1.4V (at 3V supply) enables NO path, disables NC path per switch |
| COM1–COM4 | Analog common terminals | Bidirectional signal ports; support ±300mA continuous current and rail-to-rail voltage swing |
| NO1–NO4 | Normally open analog outputs | Connected to COM when IN = HIGH; COFF = 106pF minimizes high-frequency feedthrough |
| NC1–NC4 | Normally closed analog outputs | Connected to COM when IN = LOW; guaranteed break-before-make prevents transient shorts |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RON | 0.24Ω at 4.3V enables <0.5mV drop at 200mA - critical for precision instrumentation front-ends |
| Sub-10ns switching | 8ns tON/5ns tOFF supports high-speed data acquisition and video signal routing without edge distortion |
| RON matching | ≤0.05Ω channel-to-channel variation ensures balanced differential signal integrity in audio applications |
| 1.8V logic interface | Direct compatibility with 1.8V GPIOs eliminates level-shifter components in portable SoC designs |
| Pb-free packaging | RoHS-compliant 16-lead QFN with matte tin terminations - compatible with SnPb and Pb-free reflow profiles |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STG3699 | Pin-compatible, identical pinout and function; RON = 0.25Ω @ 4.3V, tON/tOFF = 7ns/4ns | Same quad SPDT topology and 1.8V logic compatibility; slightly faster switching but identical thermal profile | Select STG3699 if prioritizing minimal propagation delay; verify layout compatibility with ISL43L420IR's 3×3 QFN footprint. |
| TMUX1574 | 4-channel SPDT, RON = 0.5Ω @ 3.3V, tON/tOFF = 12ns/8ns, supports 5V operation | Wider supply range (1.08V–5.5V); higher RON and slower switching; no guaranteed break-before-make | Choose TMUX1574 only when 5V system integration or extended voltage margin is required - not a drop-in replacement. |
Compared with STG3699, ISL43L420IR offers identical pinout but slightly higher RON tolerance and stronger ESD protection (9kV vs. unspecified); versus TMUX1574, it delivers superior speed, lower on-resistance, and guaranteed break-before-make - making it optimal for high-fidelity, low-voltage portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the ISL43L420IR?
The ISL43L420IR is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed in the Ordering Information table on page 2 of FN6098 Rev 1.00. This industrial-grade temperature range supports deployment in mobile phones, medical handhelds, and outdoor portable test equipment without derating.
Does the ISL43L420IR require external level shifting when interfaced with 1.8V logic?
No - the ISL43L420IR features native 1.8V logic compatibility when operated from a +3V supply, with VINH ≥1.4V and VINL ≤0.5V thresholds. This eliminates external level shifters in baseband processor interfaces, reducing BOM count and PCB area while maintaining noise margin.
How does the ISL43L420IR achieve guaranteed break-before-make timing?
The ISL43L420IR integrates internal timing control that enforces ≥2ns minimum delay between NC opening and NO closing during logic transitions. This is verified in the Electrical Specifications table (page 3, tD parameter) and prevents momentary short-circuits in sensitive analog signal paths.
Can the ISL43L420IR be used with a 1.1V supply, and what performance trade-offs apply?
Yes - the ISL43L420IR supports operation down to +1.1V. At this voltage, RON increases to 3.1Ω (max), tON extends to 35ns, and tOFF to 20ns (page 6). These values are fully characterized and guaranteed, enabling ultra-low-power modes in energy-harvesting or coin-cell applications where speed is secondary to quiescent current.
Is the ISL43L420IR pin-compatible with any other analog switches?
Yes - the ISL43L420IR is explicitly documented as pin-compatible with the STG3699 (page 1, Features section). Both share identical 16-lead 3×3 QFN footprints, pin assignments, and functional truth tables, enabling direct substitution in existing layouts without redesign.
