AD8186ARU-REEL

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The AD8186ARU-REEL is a high-speed, single-supply triple 2-to-1 multiplexer with a –3 dB large signal bandwidth of 480 MHz at 2 V p-p. It features a slew rate exceeding 1500 V/µs and a fast channel-to-channel switching time of 4 ns. The device operates on a single 5 V supply with low current consumption of 19 mA. It provides excellent video specifications, including 0.05% differential gain error and 0.05° differential phase error. Off isolation reaches –95 dB at 5 MHz, and all-hostile crosstalk is better than –80 dB.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the obsolete status of the AD8186 series before procurement, as Analog Devices may have discontinued this component. Confirm that the REEL suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging suitable for automated assembly. Ensure compatibility with existing design-in requirements given potential end-of-life constraints.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select the AD8186 for unity-gain applications requiring high bandwidth and low glitch energy. Choose the AD8187 variant if a fixed gain of +2 is required. Consider the package size and thermal characteristics when designing for dense PCB layouts. Verify logic voltage levels match the system control interface.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This component belongs to the AD8186/AD8187 family of high-speed video multiplexers from Analog Devices. These devices are designed for professional video applications requiring precise signal routing. The AD8186 offers unity gain, while the AD8187 provides a gain of two, both sharing similar speed and isolation characteristics.
