Intersil Continues to Build MightyMUX Low-Voltage Analog Switch Line with New High-Performance Switches
-- Low-voltage switches offer industry-leading R(ON) flatness across temp and input voltage
MILPITAS, CA, February 19, 2003 Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ: ISIL), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high performance analog and wireless networking solutions, today announced new additions to their expanding MightyMUX high-performance analog switch line. The new ISL43120, ISL43121 and ISL43122 ICs are single-supply dual SPST analog switches in a tiny 8-lead SOT-23 package. The new single-supply ISL43210 IC is configured as a single SPDT analog switch in a tiny 6-lead SOT-23 package. Designed for low-voltage portable applications, these switches provide industry-leading 3-V guaranteed performance.
We continue to support portable device markets with high-performance, low-cost, analog switches in very small SOT-23 packaging, said Mamoon Rashid, director of marketing for Intersils Analog Solutions Products. Our data sheets offer improved device characterization to facilitate new designs by including complete specification tables for +3.3-V, +5-V, and +12-V supplies. Each table includes more specifications covering the full temperature range and supply voltage tolerance.
The ISL43120 features two normally open (NO) switches, and the ISL43121 features two normally closed (NC) switches. The ISL43122 features one NO and one NC switch offering optional SPDT functionality. All of these new ICs offer the best guaranteed 3-V R(ON) performance at a price less than $0.50 for a dual SPST analog switch.
The ISL43210 is a dedicated SPDT switch, which also doubles as a 2:1 multiplexer. It is the only SPDT analog switch for under $0.50 that offers guaranteed 3-V R(ON) flatness.
