DG442CJ

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The DG442CJ is a quad, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch featuring four normally open channels. It operates from a single +10V to +30V supply or bipolar ±4.5V to ±20V supplies. Key electrical parameters include an on-resistance of up to 85 ohms, on-resistance matching of 4 ohms maximum, and on-resistance flatness of 9 ohms maximum over the signal range. The device guarantees low charge injection of 10 picocoulombs maximum and off-leakage current below 5 nanamperes at +85°C. Switching times are less than 250ns for turn-on and 170ns for turn-off. It provides rail-to-rail signal handling and is compatible with TTL/CMOS logic.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm package type and temperature range. The 'C' suffix indicates commercial grade operation from 0°C to +70°C in a 16-pin plastic DIP. Ensure lead-free specifications are requested if required by adding the '+' symbol to the part number during procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select the DG442CJ when normally open switching behavior is required for quad SPST applications. This component is suitable for designs needing rail-to-rail signal handling and TTL/CMOS logic compatibility. Verify that the commercial temperature range meets system requirements before finalizing the selection.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

This component belongs to the redesigned DG441/DG442 series of improved quad SPST analog switches. While the DG441 features normally closed switches, the DG442 variant specifically provides four normally open switches. Both share identical electrical characteristics regarding on-resistance, leakage, and switching speeds.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

The DG441CJ serves as a functional substitute within the same family, differing only in switch state configuration (normally closed versus normally open). Other packages such as the DG442CY offer narrow SOIC options for surface mount requirements.
