We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Analogue switches", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Little resistance to analogue switch upgrades from Vishay Siliconix, which we summarised at the time by saying "The DG469 and DG470 offer a very low 3.6ohm typical and 4.2ohm maximum on-resistance with typical flatness of 0.4ohm". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Analogue switches suit audio, video and data from Vishay Siliconix: "High-voltage analogue switches combine extremely low on-resistance and low leakages with a compact size".
 
In July 2007, we covered the news from Vishay Siliconix concerning its DG451 and DG454 series - take a look at Switches are optimised for analogue applications which says: "Quad SPST CMOS analogue switches combine high switching speeds with high signal bandwidth for low-distortion audio signal switching".
 
Take a look also at the news release from B+K Precision, IC testers run the rule over analogue and digital, as well as Analogue switches cut resistance to signal quality from Intersil, and Multimedia switches ease handset interfacing from Fairchild Semiconductor.
