The Great Search: Single-channel 12V-capable SPDT analog switch #TheGreatSearch #DigiKey #adafruit @DigiKey @adafruit

A few weeks ago we showed off our High Voltage UPDI programmer prototype. We’re still working on that…our Low Voltage one is available in the shop now.

We got a request for us to stock a general-purpose 12v-capable analog switch like the one we used in the HV design. Note this sounds a lot like a previous TGS – but that one was for a quad analog switch and we didn’t need to handle voltages above 5V.

So, let’s go hunting at DigiKey for a low cost analog SPDT switch that is higher-voltage capable, we’ll also poke around the ADI search system to augment our search. We’ll also chat about CMOS vs TTL input levels, to make sure we can easily use the part we find.

The video (and below) on how Ladyada finds the right connector is below. See the chosen part on DigiKey
