Product details
Overview
STG3684QTR from STMicroelectronics is a high-speed, low-voltage dual SPDT analog switch fabricated in silicon gate C2MOS technology. It operates from 1.65V to 4.3V single supply, delivers <0.5Ω max ON-resistance at VCC = 3.0V, features 0.3ns typical propagation delay, and includes Break-Before-Make timing for signal integrity in portable audio routing and USB 2.0 data path switching.
For engineers reviewing the STG3684QTR datasheet, STG3684QTR pinout, STG3684QTR application, or STG3684QTR equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 1.8V-compatible control thresholds, ultra-low 0.2µA max ICC at 85°C, 7kV HBM ESD rating on analog channels, and QFN-16 package thermal performance for space-constrained battery-powered designs.
Technical Context
The STG3684QTR implements two independent SPDT analog switches with complementary control logic: each IN input enables S1 when high and S2 when low. Its C2MOS architecture ensures rail-to-rail analog signal handling (0V to VCC) and fast channel switching with 2–15ns Break-Before-Make delay across 1.65–4.3V operation.
It supports wide-bandwidth analog signals up to 50MHz (−3dB), achieves −64dB off-isolation and −54dB crosstalk at 100kHz, and maintains <0.07Ω RON flatness over 1.5V signal swing - enabling precision multiplexing in ADC front-ends and audio codec I/O switching without gain error or distortion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65V to 4.3V single supply - enables direct interface with 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/3.6V logic and analog rails without level shifters. |
| tPD (Typ.) | 0.3ns at VCC = 3.0V - supports high-speed digital control of analog paths in USB 2.0 or DDR clock gating. |
| RON (Max) | 0.5Ω at VCC = 2.7–3.0V, TA = 25°C - minimizes insertion loss and voltage drop in precision sensor signal routing. |
| ICC (Max) | 0.2µA at TA = 85°C - extends battery life in always-on wearable sensor hubs and IoT endpoint nodes. |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 7kV on analog channels vs. GND - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in handheld device I/O protection. |
| Break-Before-Make | 2–15ns delay - prevents momentary short-circuit between source channels during switching in power domain isolation. |
| Bandwidth | 50MHz (−3dB) - preserves signal fidelity for composite video, audio line-level, and baseband RF applications. |
Pinout & Package
STG3684QTR is housed in a 3×3 mm QFN-16 package with exposed thermal pad (pin 6 = GND, pins 5/7/8/13/15/16 = NC). The package supports reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020 and provides low thermal resistance for sustained analog switching in compact PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 9 (1IN, 2IN) | Digital control inputs | CMOS-compatible, 1.8V-tolerant inputs that enable complementary SPDT switching per channel. |
| 2, 10 (1S1, 2S1) | Analog source 1 terminals | Low-capacitance (37pF) inputs routed to D1/D2 when corresponding IN = high. |
| 4, 12 (1S2, 2S2) | Analog source 2 terminals | Complementary analog inputs connected to D1/D2 when corresponding IN = low. |
| 3, 11 (D1, D2) | Common analog outputs | Low-impedance, bidirectional ports supporting rail-to-rail analog signal flow (0V to VCC). |
| 6 | GND | Primary ground reference and thermal pad connection point for heat dissipation. |
| 14 | VCC | Single positive supply input; powers internal logic and analog switch core. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ON-resistance | 0.5Ω max at 3.0V - reduces signal attenuation and THD in audio and sensor signal chains. |
| Break-Before-Make timing | Guaranteed 2–15ns delay - prevents cross-conduction in power domain switching and mixed-signal routing. |
| 1.8V-compatible control | VIH = 0.65×VCC down to 1.65V - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers without level translation. |
| High ESD robustness | 7kV HBM on analog channels - simplifies system-level ESD design for consumer handhelds and medical wearables. |
| Low charge injection | 35pC max at VCC ≥ 3.0V - minimizes glitch-induced offset in precision ADC sample-and-hold circuits. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSM1014IDT | Higher RON (1.2Ω min at 3V), no Break-Before-Make guarantee, 5V-only supply | Limited to 5V systems; unsuitable for 1.8V control or battery-powered designs | Select only if legacy 5V infrastructure prohibits voltage scaling and RON tolerance >1Ω is acceptable. |
| MAX4684EUB+ | Lower bandwidth (33MHz), higher charge injection (60pC), same QFN-10 package | Acceptable for audio but marginal for USB 2.0 due to bandwidth and jitter sensitivity | Prefer for cost-sensitive audio-only applications where 50MHz bandwidth is not required. |

FAQ
Is STG3684QTR pin-compatible with STG3684CTR?
No. STG3684QTR uses a 3×3 mm QFN-16 package with exposed thermal pad and specific pin mapping (e.g., GND on pin 6), while STG3684CTR is a SO-16 package with different mechanical layout and thermal characteristics. PCB redesign is required for substitution.
Does STG3684QTR support bidirectional analog signal flow?
Yes. All analog terminals (S1, S2, D) are fully bidirectional and support rail-to-rail signal voltages from 0V to VCC. The switch exhibits symmetrical RON and capacitance regardless of signal direction, verified per Table 6 and Figure 3 in the datasheet.
What is the maximum analog signal voltage swing supported?
The maximum analog signal voltage swing is 0V to VCC, with VCC rated from 1.65V to 4.3V. At VCC = 3.0V, signals from 0V to 3.0V are fully supported; exceeding VCC or going below GND risks latch-up or damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings (Table 4).
Can STG3684QTR be used in automotive applications?
STG3684QTR is specified for −55°C to +125°C operating temperature and meets JESD17 latch-up immunity (>300mA), but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. It may be used in non-safety-critical automotive infotainment or body electronics only after full system-level qualification by the end customer.
