MUX8521 16-Channel Analog Multiplexer Module
Radiation Tolerant & ESD Protected
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Aeroflex’s MUX8521 is a radiation tolerant, 16 channel multiplexer MCM (Multi Chip Module) with
electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection on all channel inputs.
The MUX8521 has been specifically designed to meet exposure to radiation environments. It is available
in a 56 lead High Temperature Co-Fired Ceramic (HTCC) Quad Flatpack (CQFP). It is guaranteed
operational from -55°C to +125°C. Available screened in accordance with MIL-PRF-38534, the
MUX8521 is ideal for demanding military and space applications.
ORGANIZATION AND APPLICATION
The MUX8521 consists of two 16 channel multiplexers arranged as shown in the block diagram,
addressable by bus A0~A3 including enable which connects the addressed channel to two separate outputs,
"Output" and "Current". This technique enables selecting and reading a remote resistive sensor without the
MUX resistance being part of the measurement. For grounded sensors, this is done by passing current to
the sensor by means of the "Current" pin and reading the resultant voltage (proportional to the sensor
resistance) at the "Output" pin.
