Tool/software:
Hi,
We are using the mentioned part as a gain switch, however its performance is much worse in simulation that in reality. Could there be a bug in the off resistance model? The problem is reproducible in LTspice using both the PSPICE and the TINA-TI models.
At 100 Hz in the AC analysis the off resistance is approximately 1/3 MΩ. Corresponding to 1 MΩ Roff between COM and each of the NO0, NO1, and NO2. Based on the off state leak current and bandwidth specs I would expect Roff to be at least two orders of magnitude higher.
Could you please check the models?
TIA

Hi Asger,
I'm seeing lower than expected ROFF values as well. In PSPICE I get some strange results that fail to converge and in TINA frankly I get even lower resistance than you're seeing.
It's an older model and typically ROFF isn't something modeled. It really isn't something we spec out in general. You can kind of get of given the off isolation. If you know it's at 100Hz, you can say that Off-Iso will be closer to -85dB. At 5V at the input, I calculate about 281uV on the drain side.
I would trust that value as it's from actual lab data vs the model.
Long story short, I don't think it's necessarily a bug but rather something just not considered for the model itself. Definitely wouldn't expect that performance from the mux.
Thanks,
Rami
