Quad analogue switch cuts on-resistance
to new low
The MightyMUX ISL43240 high-performance analogue switch contains four single-pole double-throw analogue switches that provide a best-in-class on-resistance.
The MightyMUX ISL43240 high-performance analogue switch contains four single-pole double-throw (SPDT) analogue switches that provide a best-in-class on-resistance of less than 20ohm, at +/-5V and 25C, and a best-in-class on-resistance flatness of less than 4ohms guaranteed across input voltage and industrial temperature Targeted applications include high-precision equipment used for medical, communications, and testing

Programmable up-converter simplifies basestations
Intersil has added a new highly integrated quad up-convertor to its CommLinkT family of digital radio ICs for fixed basestation applications.
"Customers want high performance, small packaging and low price", said Mamoon Rashid, Director of Marketing for Intersil's Analogue Solutions Products.
"Our careful attention to market needs and manufacturing efficiencies allow us to provide the precision analogue switch solutions customers seek".
The ISL43240 has the flexibility to operate from a +2 to +12V single supply or from a +/-2 to +/-6V dual supply.
The tiny, near-chip-scale, 20-pad 4 x 4mm QFN package greatly conserves board space.
A 20-lead SSOP option is also available.
A very low off-leakage current of less than 100pA lengthens hold times in sample-and-hold-circuits and fast switching speeds (46ns switch on, 25ns switch off with dual 5V supply) reduce propagation delays in timing-sensitive applications.
These switches offer minimal charge injection of less than 5pC to maximise signal integrity.
All ICs are fully specified at +/-5, 12, 5 and 3.3V to save designers characterisation time and increase their confidence in the device's performance.
Intersil offers more guaranteed specifications for the ISL43240 than any competing product.
