Hello All

I am just looking for advice from anyone with regards to a project which i need to carry out at work.
i have a common supply of 110v dc which i need to apply to 16 different channels
so that instead of using 16 different relays i can just use an analog multiplexer so the output can be selectable dependant on the digital input such as the DG406
http://www.maxim-ic.com/datasheet/index.mvp/id/1002
Not sure if there is such an IC that can be use at high voltage

Regards
Isaac

The DG406 has a max input of 30V so it would not work in this application. Other than relays, you could use high voltage transistors or FETs but you would have to manage the on/off timing yourself based on the response time of the parts used.

Thanks falingtrea
Thats what i thought as i knew the DG406 was not capable of supplying 100v
i just thought that there might had been a High Voltage version or similar
