impedance and the load impedance.

Leakage Considerations

Reverse ESD protection diodes are internally connected

between each analog-signal pin and both V+ and GND.

One of these diodes conducts if any analog signal exceeds

V+ or GND.

Virtually all the analog leakage current comes from the ESD

diodes to V+ or GND. Although the ESD diodes on a given

signal pin are identical and therefore fairly well balanced,

they are reverse biased differently. Each is biased by either

V+ or GND and the analog signal. This means their leakages

will vary as the signal varies. The difference in the two diode

leakages to the V+ and GND pins constitutes the analog-

signal-path leakage current. All analog leakage current flows

between each pin and one of the supply terminals, not to the

other switch terminal. This is why both sides of a given

switch can show leakage currents of the same or opposite

polarity. There is no connection between the analog signal

paths and V+ or GND.
