Product details
Overview
PI3A2268ZMEX from Diodes Incorporated is a dual SPDT analog switch fabricated in CMOS technology, designed for low-distortion signal routing in portable audio/video and bus applications. It delivers 0.45 Ω on-resistance at 4.2 V, rail-to-rail signal handling (0 V to VDD), and break-before-make switching across –40°C to +85°C. Used in headset switching and power routing where low crosstalk and high off-isolation are critical.
For engineers reviewing the PI3A2268ZMEX datasheet, PI3A2268ZMEX pinout, PI3A2268ZMEX application, or PI3A2268ZMEX equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance flatness (≤0.26 Ω), channel crosstalk rejection (–108 dB @ 100 kHz), isolation (–83 dB @ 100 kHz), 10-pin UQFN package footprint, and 1.65 V to 4.2 V supply compatibility.
Technical Context
The PI3A2268ZMEX implements two independent SPDT switches with separate logic controls (IN1/IN2), each selecting between normally-open (NO) and normally-closed (NC) paths to a shared common (COM). Its CMOS architecture enables rail-to-rail analog signal switching without level-shifting constraints.
Break-before-make timing (8 ns typical at 4.2 V) ensures no momentary short between NO and NC terminals during state transitions. Dynamic performance includes 84 MHz 3dB bandwidth and <50 pC charge injection, supporting clean switching of audio and high-speed digital signals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-Resistance | 0.45 Ω at VDD = 4.2 V - enables minimal voltage drop and power loss in signal path |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 4.2 V - supports single-supply operation from Li-ion battery down to 1.8 V logic rails |
| Off Isolation | –83 dB @ 100 kHz - suppresses leakage between disconnected channels in audio routing |
| Crosstalk Rejection | –108 dB @ 100 kHz - prevents audible interference between adjacent audio channels |
| Turn-On/Off Time | 13 ns / 12 ns at 4.2 V - supports fast multiplexing in USB 2.0 or I²S data paths |
| ESD Protection | 4 kV HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for handheld device front-end robustness |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and consumer portable equipment environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-pin Ultra-thin Quad Flat No-Lead (UQFN), 1.4 mm × 1.8 mm, 0.4 mm pitch, ZM footprint per Diodes Inc. mechanical drawing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 NO1 | Normally-open data port (Switch 1) | Connects to COM1 only when IN1 = HIGH; open-circuit otherwise |
| 2 NC2 | Normally-closed data port (Switch 2) | Connects to COM2 when IN2 = LOW; disconnects when IN2 = HIGH |
| 3 NO2 | Normally-open data port (Switch 2) | Connects to COM2 only when IN2 = HIGH; open-circuit otherwise |
| 4 GND | Ground reference | Return path for analog signals and digital control; must be low-impedance |
| 5 COM2 | Common output (Switch 2) | Shared signal node for NC2/NO2; connects to either based on IN2 logic state |
| 6 IN2 | Logic control input (Switch 2) | Active-HIGH control: HIGH selects NO2→COM2, LOW selects NC2→COM2 |
| 7 IN1 | Logic control input (Switch 1) | Active-HIGH control: HIGH selects NO1→COM1, LOW selects NC1→COM1 |
| 8 COM1 | Common output (Switch 1) | Shared signal node for NC1/NO1; connects to either based on IN1 logic state |
| 9 VDD | Positive power supply | Supplies bias for internal CMOS switch transistors; decoupling capacitor required |
| 10 NC1 | Normally-closed data port (Switch 1) | Connects to COM1 when IN1 = LOW; disconnects when IN1 = HIGH |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual SPDT analog switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSM1022YFPR | Higher RON (0.8 Ω typ), wider VDD (1.65–5.5 V), lower ESD (2 kV HBM) | Better suited for 5 V systems; less optimal for low-voltage audio due to higher on-resistance | Select when operating above 4.2 V or requiring extended voltage margin |
| MAX4688EUB+ | Lower crosstalk (–115 dB), but larger 10-pin µMAX package; higher cost | Preferred for high-fidelity audio test equipment where PCB area is secondary to signal purity | Choose when ultra-low crosstalk outweighs size and cost constraints |
Compared with TSM1022YFPR and MAX4688EUB+, the PI3A2268ZMEX offers superior on-resistance (0.45 Ω) and smallest footprint (1.4 × 1.8 mm), making it optimal for space-constrained portable devices requiring low-distortion switching below 4.2 V.

FAQ
What is the maximum signal frequency supported by the PI3A2268ZMEX?
The PI3A2268ZMEX has a 3dB bandwidth of 84 MHz at VDD = 4.2 V, verified under 1.5 V bias and 0 dBm input conditions. This supports clean switching of USB 2.0 (480 Mbps), I²S, and composite video signals without significant attenuation or phase shift.
Can the PI3A2268ZMEX operate from a 1.8 V supply?
Yes - the PI3A2268ZMEX is fully specified from 1.65 V to 4.2 V. At 1.8 V, on-resistance increases to ≤1.2 Ω (typical), and switching times extend to ~25 ns, while maintaining rail-to-rail signal handling and break-before-make functionality.
Is external pull-up or pull-down required on IN1/IN2 control pins?
No - the PI3A2268ZMEX features CMOS-compatible inputs with VIH = 1.2 V (min) and VIL = 0.5 V (max) across temperature. Control pins must be driven actively HIGH or LOW; floating inputs are prohibited and may cause undefined switching behavior.
How does the PI3A2268ZMEX handle unused NO/NC pins?
Per Diodes' datasheet Figure 1 note, unused NO or NC pins must be grounded to minimize off-capacitance and prevent noise coupling. Leaving them floating increases crosstalk and degrades isolation performance, especially at high frequencies.
