General Description
The EL4344C and EL4348C are 600MHz bandwidth multiplexing
amplifiers designed primarily for input video switching. The
EL4344C and EL4348C contain 4:1 multiplexing amplifiers.
The EN pin can be used to tri-state the MUX output, enabling parts to
be paralleded for a greater number of inputs. All logic inputs are referenced to the GND pin.
The EL4344C has a gain of 1 and the EL4348C has a gain of 2.
The EL4344C and the EL4348C are available in a 28-pin QSOP pack-
age and are specified for operation over the full ---40°C to +85°C
temperature range.

Absolute Maximum Ratings (T
Values beyond absolute maximum ratings can cause the device to be prematurely damaged. Absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only
and functional device operation is not implied.
Supply Voltage (VS+ to VS-) 11V
Input Voltage VS- - 0.3V, VS+ +0.3V
Important Note:
All parameters having Min/Max specifications are guaranteed. Typ values are for information purposes only. Unless otherwise noted, all tests are at the
specified temperature and are pulsed tests, therefore: TJ = TC = TA.
