DG406DW-T1-E3

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The DG406DW-T1-E3 is a 16-channel single-ended analog multiplexer manufactured by Vishay Siliconix. It connects one of sixteen inputs to a common output based on a 4-bit binary address. The device operates with a maximum supply voltage of 44 V, supporting dual supplies from ±5 V to ±20 V or a single supply up to 44 V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum on-resistance of 125 Ω, a transition time of 400 ns, and an enable turn-on time of 400 ns. It features break-before-make switching, TTL-compatible control inputs, and an epitaxial layer to prevent latchup. The component is housed in a 28-pin widebody SOIC package and functions within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Feature Summary

• Break-before-make switching action prevents momentary shorting of inputs during channel transitions.
• TTL-compatible control inputs, address lines, and enable function across the full operating temperature range.
• Epitaxial layer construction prevents latchup for increased ruggedness.
• Enable (EN) function allows resetting all switches to the off state for stacking multiple devices.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Applications

• High-speed data acquisition systems
• Audio signal switching and routing
• Automated test equipment (ATE) systems
• Avionics applications

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm packaging and compliance details. The -T1 suffix indicates tape and reel packaging, while -E3 denotes lead-free and RoHS-compliant terminations. Ensure the selected variant matches the required supply chain format and environmental standards for the intended production run.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-channel-count multiplexer with a wide voltage range is required. The DG406 supports both single and dual supply configurations, making it suitable for diverse power environments. Verify that the 125 Ω maximum on-resistance meets the system's signal integrity requirements and that the 400 ns switching speed aligns with the application's timing constraints.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This part belongs to the DG406/DG407 series of high-performance CMOS analog multiplexers. The DG406 specifically provides a 16:1 single-ended configuration, whereas the DG407 offers a dual 8:1 differential configuration. Both share similar performance characteristics and are designed for applications requiring low power dissipation and high accuracy.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

DG406DW-E3 is a tube-packaged equivalent within the same series. DG406BDW-T1-E3 is a higher-performance variant with lower on-resistance and faster switching times but requires verification of pin compatibility and parameter limits.
