The DG485 is an analog switch array consisting of eight SPST switches connected to a common output. This device may be used as an 8-channel multiplexer in serial control applications. Any, all or none of the eight switches may be closed at any given time. Combining low on-resistance (rDS(on) 55 W, typ.) and fast switching (tON: 170 ns, typ.), the DG485 is ideally suited for data acquisition, process control, communication, and avionic applications.
