The DG535/536 Wideband Multiplexers Suit a Wide Variety of Applications
Introduction Analog switch IC’s traditionally have found limited use in applications involving high-frequency analog or digital signals. Degradation of switch performance and intolerable signal cross-talk between channels has undoubtedly forced many designers to use bulky electromechanical switches or costly discrete designs. At best, analog switch ICs configured in L or T arrangement could be adopted. However, increased board space and layout complexity became major problems in configuring systems with high channel density. The DG535/536 are compact 16-channel, single-ended multiplexer ICs, primarily designed as a cost-effective solution to video and wideband switching problems.
