Related to unknown voltage at supply pin

Category: Hardware
Product Number: ADG723
Dear Sir,
In our pcb at one section we have designed a resistors string ckt consisting of 6 resistors in series which generate voltage as per their equivalent combination. The last 6th resistors which is reference to gnd its equivalent resistance value we are changing by using your ADG723 analog switch at which its source terminal we are connecting one other resistors which comes in parallel to the 6th resistors when our controller gpio is made high. We have generated an on board supply which have net label VCC5V and this is used to power our ADG IC but while designing ADG723 section at its VDD pin we have provided wrong net label i.e VCC_5V ( which is not present in our ckt).So as per that no voltage should get applied to our VDD pin of ADG723 IC. But after powering the pcb we have found 3.26v at its VDD pin. Initially we thought it may be layout issue, then we removed IC and checked at its footprint and 0v is observed. So, its not layout fault. So, sir we want to know how these IC is getting power at its supply pin is there any internal circuitry which driving because as its S2 is normally connected to D2 and at that point 3.8V is coming by resistance voltage generated. So, sir due to these the voltage is coming at its supply pin. Please sir let me know if you have any idea related to it. I have attached the schematic section of its for your reference please refer it.
Waiting for your reply,

  • Hi  ,

    Could you please confirm the power-up sequence of the ADG732 when the PCB is powered on? Specifically, does the S to D channel power up before the VDD? If so, this would violate the absolute maximum ratings specified in the product datasheet.

    Thank you.

    Best regards,

  • Dear Sir, 

    As soon as I powered the PCB, then through resistor string the voltage which generated goes on drain then its connects to source then to the VDD as per my assumption. I will check it on scope and let you know. Currently, what we have done is shorted the wire from capacitor where 5v is coming to its supply pin. And now it is constantly holding supply of 5v even when there is change of state occurs in it.
    For your information, the voltage which is coming on supply pin is less than the voltage which is available on drain and source.
    Please, let me know if you want more info related to it. 

    Thanks & Regards,
