TS12A44513: Comparison to competitor device 74LVC4066PW

Part Number: TS12A44513
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TS12A44515, SN74HC4066

Hey Team,

 

I was hoping you could help me with a quick question.

 

So I am looking at our: TS12A4451x device and comparing it to the competitor: 74LVC4066PW

 

And the cross reference tool suggests the TS12A44513 which has 2 NC and 2 NO paths, but the other device seems to have 4 NO (normally Open, or “Off”) paths. This is just one of the differences, but seems to be the major one. I wanted to get your thoughts on if the TS12A44515 might be a better fit or another device all together.

 

In general could you take a look at that other device and ours and see if there are any other major differences? The other item I saw was that our device has a much larger input voltage range:

 

2V -> 12V (Ti)                     vs. 1.65V-> 6.5V (Nexperia)

-0.2V -> 13V (abs max TI)

 

Let me know if you can help clarify this. Thanks!

  • Saquib,

    When the 74LVC4066 device has logic low inputs the 1:1 switches are ON or low impedance.  The TS12A44515 follows this same logic on all 4 1:1 switches in the IC similar to 74LVC4066.  Usually the logic isn't a big deal in customer systems because all you would need to do is a software or firmware bit flip to make the logic work for the switch.  

    You may also notice that there are other 4-channel 1:1 switches with this common pinout that maybe useful as well at lower cost than TS12A44515 like the SN74HC4066.  

    Why do you need a switch in your application?  What signal are you switching?

    Thank you,
