GENERAL DESCRIPTION 
The AD8117/AD8118 are high speed, 32 × 32 analog crosspoint 
switch matrices. They offer 600 MHz bandwidth and slew rate of 
1800 V/µs for high resolution computer graphics (RGB) signal 
switching. With less than −70 dB of crosstalk and −90 dB 
isolation (@ 5 MHz), the AD8117/AD8118 are useful in many 
high speed applications. The 0.1 dB flatness greater than 
50 MHz makes the AD8117/AD8118 ideal for composite video 
switching. 
The AD8117/AD8118 include 32 independent output buffers 
that can be placed into a high impedance state for paralleling 
crosspoint outputs so that off-channels present minimal loading 
to an output bus. The AD8117 has a differential gain of +1, 
while the AD8118 has a differential gain of +2 for ease of use in 
back-terminated load applications. They operate as fully 
differential devices or can be configured for single-ended 
operation. Either a single +5 V supply or dual ±2.5 V supplies 
can be used, while consuming only 500 mA of idle current with 
all outputs enabled. The channel switching is performed via a 
double-buffered, serial digital control (which can accommodate 
daisy chaining of several devices), or via a parallel control, 
allowing updating of an individual output without reprogram-
ming the entire array. 
The AD8117/AD8118 are packaged in a 304-ball BGA package 
and are available over the extended industrial temperature 
range of −40°C to +85°C.
