Maxim DG508A/DG509A Datasheet
The DG508A and DG509A are monolithic CMOS analog multiplexers from Maxim. The DG508A is a single‑ended 8‑channel (1‑of‑8) device, while the DG509A is a differential 4‑channel (2‑of‑8) device. Both guarantee break‑before‑make switching, latch‑up‑proof operation, and low power consumption, making them suitable for portable equipment and a range of signal‑routing applications.
Typical applications include control systems, data‑logging, aircraft heads‑up displays, and data‑acquisition systems. Ordering information, pin configurations, and package drawings are provided, along with detailed electrical characteristics such as supply range, on‑resistance, leakage currents, and switching times.
