The ADG408BR is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the ADG408 series of multiplexers/demultiplexers. It is designed by Analog Devices Inc. and is widely used in various electronic systems. The ADG408BR offers several key features that make it versatile and reliable for different applications.
One of the primary functions of the ADG408BR is to route analog or digital signals through its multiplexing and demultiplexing capabilities. It is an 8-channel analog multiplexer that enables the selection of one of eight input signals to be routed to a common output. This makes it ideal for signal routing, channel selection, data acquisition, and communication systems.
The ADG408BR operates over a wide voltage range, from a single positive power supply voltage of 5V to 16.5V, making it compatible with a wide range of system designs. It provides low on-resistance (less than 175 ohms) for multiplexing analog signals, ensuring minimal signal distortion and accurate transmission.
Another key feature of the ADG408BR is its low power consumption. It is designed to minimize power dissipation, making it suitable for battery-powered devices or applications where power efficiency is crucial. Additionally, it incorporates latch-up protection to prevent excessive current flow that may damage the IC during high-voltage operations.
The IC supports both parallel and serial method control inputs for addressing the desired signal path
