During the track mode, SW1 is TPC 7. Off Isolation vs. Frequency closed and the output VOUT follows the input signal VIN. In the hold mode, SW1 is opened and the signal is held by the hold capacitor CH. 110 Due to switch and capacitor leakage, the voltage on the hold VDD = +15V capacitor will decrease with time. The ADG431/ADG432/ VSS = –15V100V ADG433 minimizes this droop due to its low leakage specifica- L = +5V tions. The droop rate is further minimized by the use of a polystyrene hold capacitor. The droop rate for the circuit dB –90 shown is typically 30 µV/µs. A second switch SW2, which operates in parallel with SW1, is 80 included in this circuit to reduce pedestal error. Since both CROSSTALK switches will be at the same potential, they will have a differen- tial effect on the op amp AD711 which will minimize charge 70 injection effects. Pedestal error is also reduced by the compensa- tion network RC and CC. This compensation network also reduces the hold time glitch while optimizing the acquisition time.

TRENCH ISOLATION+15V+5V In the ADG431A, ADG432A and ADG433A, an insulating 2200pF oxide layer (trench) is placed between the NMOS and PMOS +15VSW2 transistors of each CMOS switch.

However, during overvoltage conditions, this diode ADG432 ADG433 becomes forward biased. A silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) type circuit is formed by the two transistors causing a significant –15V amplification of the current which, in turn, leads to latch up. With trench isolation, this diode is removed, the result being a Figure 2. Fast, Accurate Sample-and-Hold latch-up proof switch. –6– REV. C
