Can the 4066 or 4016 type CMOS switches handle positive and negative
voltages? I remember these were in the old DVG output stages for Atari
stuff, but then they switched to the 13201 during the AVG era. I never
really looked into why they'd do that. (I assume the 13201 handled a wider
voltage swing or something.)
Anyone know the scoop on that? (The 4066 in particular seems very common...)
