Break-Before-Make Switching
All devices feature break-before-make switching, which
is configured to break (open) the first set of contacts
before engaging (closing) the new contacts. This pre-
vents the momentary connection of the old and new sig-
nal paths to the output, reducing click-and-pop sounds.
Power-Supply Sequencing and
Overvoltage Protection
Caution: Do not exceed the Absolute Maximum
Ratings since stresses beyond the listed ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device.
Proper power-supply sequencing is recommended for
all CMOS devices. Improper supply sequencing can
force the switch into latch-up, causing it to draw exces-
sive supply current. The only way out of latch-up is to
recycle the power and reapply properly. Connect all
ground pins first, then apply power to V
CC
, and finally
apply signals to NO_, NC_, and COM_. Follow the
reverse order upon power-down.
