Using the simulation models of the NMOS and PMOS
devices for the MCP4XXX analog switch (Figure B-10),
we plot the device resistance when the devices are
turned on. Figure B-11 and Figure B-12 show the
resistances of the NMOS and PMOS devices as the
V
IN
voltage is increased. The wiper resistance (R
W
) is
simply the parallel resistance on the NMOS and PMOS
devices (R
W
= R
NMOS
|| R
PMOS
). Below the threshold
voltage for the NMOS and PMOS devices, the
resistance becomes very large (Giga s). In the
transistor’s active region, the resistance is much lower.
For these graphs, the resistances are on different
scales. Figure B-13 and Figure B-14 only plot the
NMOS and PMOS device resistance for their active
region and the resulting wiper resistance. For these
graphs, all resistances are on the same scale.
