How do transistor switches work?How do transistor switches work?Can be viewed as solid state relays:they are either ON or they are OFF.

BJT switches are characterized by:

high base current (or no base current)

low resistance from collector to emitter(or very high resistance)

low collector dissipationPC = VCE x IC

PC = 0 x IC = 0 W(or PC = VCE x 0 = 0 W)

DRIVER

The driver output is off (high Z): the resistorpulls the base voltage up so that VBE = 0

PNP SWITCH

The driver output goes low: the voltage dropacross the resistor makes VBE negative

The driver output is off (high Z): the resistorpulls the base voltage up so that VBE = 0

The next slide shows a different type of transistor switch. It does not have a digital output; it has an analog input and output. It does have a digital input for controlling on and off. Thus, these switches can be used to connect or disconnect analog signals. Some are bidirectional left to right or right to left.

Digital on/off input


5-49

The signal source is a sine wave.

The output is switched on and off

by the control.


5-50

When the control input (pin 6) is at logic 0, the input signal applied to the COM terminal (pin 1) is routed to the NC (normally closed) terminal (pin 2) and when the control input is logic 1, the input signal is connected to the NO (normally open) terminal (pin 8). The MAX4649 integrated circuit acts as a static (no moving parts) SPDT (single-pole-double-throw) relay. It is an example of a mixed-signal integrated circuit. Mixed signal ICs have both digital and analog features and are covered in more detail in subsequent chapters.

The MAX4649 is an integrated
