Greetings Everyone, May i ask does the Vi(Input Voltage) means that the voltage that can be input to the Y0-Y7 or Z is at max 5V ( The Vcc i used is 5V). In my project, the input voltage for the Y0-Y7 is 12V, will that spoil the multiplexer? If so what multiplexer should I use for my project?
Above is the rought schematic i drawn to represent the project i am doing.
The voltages on Z and Y0 - Y7 must not be more than the supply voltage, so 12 V will cause damage. If you do apply 12 V, that could cause the 5 V supply voltage to rise as well.
An analogue switch like the 74HC4051 is not good for driving loads like that, as it has quite a large resistance when on, typically 70 Ohms.
That uses serial data (like SPI, or bit-banging) to select the outputs, but it is intended for a separate output supply and can provide up to half an amp to an output pin.
Any combination of outputs can be switched on, depending on the serial data byte loaded.
Hi, thanks for the reply, and sorry for the late reply too! After the suggestion and discussion with my mentor, she suggested that I just use multiple MOSFET to act as a switch.
Again, thanks for the help provided by rjenkinsgb and Diver300! Much Appreciated!
