The DG419L is a low-voltage, single-channel, single-pole/single-throw (SPST) analog switch manufactured by Vishay. This switch is designed for precision switching of analog signals with low on-resistance and charge injection. Given its End-of-Life (EOL) status, it is often found in legacy designs or applications where direct replacements are needed without redesign.

Technical Specifications

The DG419L typically operates from a single supply voltage between 1.8V and 5.5V. It features a low on-resistance, typically in the range of a few ohms. Charge injection is minimized to ensure signal integrity during switching. Switching times are usually in the nanosecond range. The device is commonly available in small surface-mount packages, such as SOIC or TSSOP. The operating temperature range is typically -40°C to +85°C.

While designated as End-of-Life, the DG419L remains a reliable component for existing low-voltage analog switching applications. Designers should consider potential replacement options for new designs due to its EOL status.
