FSA1259AK8X

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Overview

The FSA1259AK8X is a dual single-pole single-throw (SPST) normally open analog switch manufactured by onsemi. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65V to 5.5V and features a maximum on-resistance of 850 milliohms with a channel-to-channel matching of 50 milliohms. The device provides a -3dB bandwidth of 240MHz, charge injection of 15pC, and off-state leakage current of 10nA. Switching times are specified at 7.5ns for turn-on and 17ns for turn-off. It is housed in an 8-VFSOP package and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Procurement Notes

This component has been officially declared obsolete by the manufacturer as of December 15, 2022. Verification of availability should focus on surplus distributors or secondary market sources rather than direct manufacturing channels. Designers must confirm the authenticity of existing stock through authorized supply chain partners to ensure compliance with quality standards.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Selection Notes

Engineers replacing this part should evaluate alternative switches that match the 1.65V to 5.5V supply range and similar on-resistance specifications. The transition requires checking pin compatibility with the US8 package and verifying that the substitute device meets the required 240MHz bandwidth and switching speed parameters for the specific application circuit.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Part Context

The FSA1259AK8X belongs to the FSA1259A series of low-voltage analog switches designed for portable applications. This series emphasizes small form factors and efficient power usage. The specific K8X suffix denotes the 8-VFSOP package variant, distinguishing it from other packaging options within the broader family of dual SPST switches offered by the manufacturer.

Analog Switches, Multiplexers, Demultiplexers Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers include FSA1256AL8X and FSA1256L8X. These alternatives share similar dual SPST configurations but may differ in on-resistance values and package types such as MicroPak-8. Engineers must verify electrical parameter compatibility before implementation.
