DG506ABK

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The DG506ABK is a monolithic CMOS analog multiplexer manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It provides a single 16-channel (1 of 16) switching configuration within a 28-pin Ceramic DIP package. The device operates over an extended temperature range from -25°C to +85°C and supports dual power supplies ranging from ±4.5V to ±18V. Key electrical specifications include a maximum on-resistance of 450 Ohms, typical off-isolation of 68 dB at 500kHz, and low supply currents of 0.3mA maximum. The component features break-before-make switching logic and TTL/CMOS compatible digital inputs.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'BK' corresponds to the required 28-pin CERDIP package and the -25°C to +85°C operating temperature range. Confirm that the lead-free status aligns with project requirements, as indicated by datasheet ordering information. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB land patterns for the specified ceramic package type before finalizing procurement.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16-channel analog switch is required in a ruggedized ceramic package. The DG506ABK is appropriate for environments requiring operation between -25°C and +85°C. Compare its 450 Ohm maximum on-resistance against system signal integrity needs. Verify that the ±4.5V to ±18V supply range matches the available power rails in the target circuit design.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The DG506ABK belongs to the DG506A/DG507A series of monolithic CMOS analog multiplexers. It serves as a drop-in replacement for devices such as Intersil's IH6116, Siliconix's DG506A, and Harris' HI506. The 'B' suffix denotes the extended plastic/ceramic temperature range, while 'K' specifies the 28-lead Ceramic DIP package format.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers include ADG506AKNZ and ADG506AKN. These alternatives offer similar functionality but may differ in package type or specific electrical tolerances. Verify pin compatibility and thermal performance before substitution.
