ADG5436F - GLITCHES DURING SWITCHING

Thread Summary

The user observed a 2V, 600ns glitch on ADG5436F output pins D1/D2 during switching, which is significantly larger than the 0.5V, 100ns glitch seen with ADG5436. The support engineer identified this as likely due to the higher charge injection (724 pC vs 200 pC) of the ADG5436F. Increasing the load capacitance is recommended to mitigate the glitch. The user also inquired about finding a drop-in replacement for ADG5436 with similar charge injection characteristics.

Hi Forum,

 

We were using ADG5436 in our design and since it was not available, we replaced with ADG5436F.

 

Following are the voltage levels of ADG5436F:

  • VDD = 12V
  • VSS = -12V
  • EN = 3.3 V
  • IN1 = 0V or 5V
  • IN2 = 0V or 5V
  • S1A = 0V or 5V
  • S1B = 0V or 5V
  • S2A = 0V or 5V
  • S2B = 0V or 5V
  • D1 = 0V or 5V
  • D2 = 0V or 5V
  • Rest all pins are No Connect

 

We observe a glitch in the output pins D1/D2 of ADG5436F during switching. The voltage of glitch is around 2V and pulse width around 600 ns.

During the switching in ADG5436, there was a glitch, but the voltage level is around 0.5V and pulse width is around 100ns.

Could anyone please help us in understand the reason behind the glitch, and advise us on what has to be done for this ?

  • Hello,

    This glitch that you see is likely caused by the Charge injection of the switches. The datasheet shows a difference in Charge injection (Qinj) specifications for the ADG5436 (200 pC) and the ADG5436F ( 724 pC). This is roughly a difference of 4 X, and would account for your glitch being 4x bigger when using the ADG5436F.

    The Test Circuit  for charge injection shows that the Glitch or Delta Vout is related to the Qinj and the load capacitance. Increasing the load capacitance could be a solution to the higher glitch.

    Regards,

    David

  • Thank you! We just have one more query if we could find drop-in replacement for ADG5436 with almost same charge injection?
