SCDA060 May 2025 CD4053B
Analog multiplexers or demultiplexers are essentially combination of switches. The design of CD4053B is based on transmission gate switch. As shown in Figure 2-1, an N-channel transistor and a P-channel transistor are connected in parallel and are controlled by reverse logic so that the transistor can be turned ON or OFF at the same time. Such structure is used because the paralleled ON-state resistance is much flatter across voltage than that of individual transistors, as shown in Figure 2-2. Refer to Selecting the Correct Texas Instruments Signal Switch, application note for more information.
