Current spike on ADG1634L

Thread Summary

The user inquired about current spikes occurring during switching of the ADG1634L analog switch in an LTspice test fixture. The support engineer confirmed that these ns-duration spikes are expected and should not cause issues, as the part can withstand a maximum peak current of 317 mA (pulsed at 1 ms, 10% duty-cycle max).

A current spike occurs each time the analog switch is switched.

This is the ADG1634L Test fixture for LTspice.

Questions

1) Can current spikes cause problems?

2) What is the maximum peak current the ADG1634L can withstand? (The datasheet says 317 mA, but the SB pin is over the value)

3) How to reduce current spikes? (Any other way than using a switch with a small charge injection and large Ron)

I'm sorry for using a translator.

Thank you.
