Enable and Disable Delays and Propagation Delay

Enable and disable delays (ten and tdis) are measures of how quickly the switch can be turned on and off. Not only should these delays be as small as possible for high-speed operation, but also the difference of enable and disable delays should be as small as possible to reduce the current flow between the off switch and on switch. This is significant in multiplexing and demultiplexing operations where the difference, if large, can cause bus contention. For break-before-make functions, disable time should be less than enable time and for make-before-break functions, enable time should be less than disable time.

Propagation delay (tpd) introduced by digital switches is negligible for all applications except those with the most critical timing budgets. When the digital switch is on, the delay through the pass transistor is minimal. Generally, the effective propagation delay of a digital signal varies as a product of output capacitance and varies widely across different applications. Texas Instruments specifies this value as the mathematical calculation of the typical ron times the load capacitance.
