FAIRCHILD 74VHC4051, 74VHC4052, 74VHC4053 8-Channel Analog Multiplexer, Dual 4-Channel Analog Multiplexer, Triple 2-Channel Analog Multiplexer Owner's Manual and User Guide
Summary
These integrated circuits offer high-performance, digitally controlled analog multiplexers for signal switching. Available in configurations ranging from single 8-channel up to triple 2-channel setups, these switches excel at routing varying analog signals (±6V) using low-resistance CMOS technology. The accompanying manual provides comprehensive technical details—including electrical specifications, functional logic diagrams, and multiple package options—making it the essential resource for hardware engineers and designers implementing robust, multi-signal switching systems in their electronics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the recommended operating supply voltage range?
The typical supply voltage range is 5V (CC) with an analog input voltage range of ±6V.
Do these multiplexers have low power consumption?
Yes, they feature low quiescent current and low ‘on’ resistance (e.g., 50 typ. Ω for 4V–9V).
What protection is offered against electrical damage?
All analog inputs and outputs are protected from electrostatic damage by diodes to V and ground.
Are these switches bidirectional?
Yes, they are bidirectional switches; any given analog input may be used as an output and vice-versa.
