GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADG466 and ADG467 are triple and octal channel pro-
tectors, respectively. The channel protector is placed in series
with the signal path. The channel protector will protect sensitive
components from voltage transience in the signal path whether
the power supplies are present or not. Because the channel
protection works whether the supplies are present or not, the
channel protectors are ideal for use in applications where
correct power sequencing can’t always be guaranteed (e.g., hot-
insertion rack systems) to protect analog inputs. This is dis-
cussed further, and some example circuits are given in the
Applications section of this data sheet.
ADG467 is 60 Ω typ with a leakage current of ±1 nA max.
When power is disconnected, the input leakage current is ap-
proximately ±5 nA typ.
The ADG466 is available in 8-lead DIP, SOIC and µSOIC
packages. The ADG467 is available in an 18-lead SOIC package
and a 20-lead SSOP package.
Each channel protector has an independent operation and con-
sists of an n-channel MOSFET, a p-channel MOSFET and an
n-channel MOSFET, connected in series. The channel protec-
tor behaves just like a series resistor during normal operation,
i.e., (VSS + 2 V) < VIN < (VDD – 1.5 V). When a channel’s ana-
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Fault Protection.
The ADG466 and ADG467 can withstand continuous volt-
age inputs from –40 V to +40 V. When a fault occurs due to
the power supplies being turned off or due to an overvoltage
being applied to the ADG466 and ADG467, the output is
clamped. When power is turned off, current is limited to the
microampere level.
log input exceeds the power supplies (including VDD and VSS
=
0 V), one of the MOSFETs will switch off, clamping the output
to either VSS + 2 V or VDD – 1.5 V. Circuitry and signal source
protection is provided in the event of an overvoltage or power
loss. The channel protectors can withstand overvoltage inputs
from –40 V to +40 V. See the Circuit Information section of
this data sheet.

The ADG466 and ADG467 can operate off both bipolar and
unipolar supplies. The channels are normally on when power is
connected and open circuit when power is disconnected. With
power supplies of ±15 V, the on-resistance of the ADG466 and
4. Trench Isolation Latch-Up Proof Construction.
A dielectric trench separates the p- and n-channel MOSFETs
thereby preventing latch-up.
