Would probably happen so fast your eye couldn't even notice it.
I guess I'll order one of them too on my next purchase. I'm still waiting for my .1 ohm resistors to come in so I can actually have a fully functioning dimmer circuit on the breadboard to videotape :-P

See edit; I'm not 100% sure that chip will handle the current we need it to.
That IC has a control pin for every switch, so I'm assuming you can control them independently.
Sort of off topic, I may have acquired a $1500 4pst teledyne TTL controlled RF switch from work. The fourth port sticks, but since I wouldn't be using it for RF, return loss and attenuation don't really matter so I might crack it open and see if I can free it up.
I played around with it briefly and there is no DC blocking, so I might be able to find a use for it. Just gotta give it some time to see if the powers that be want to send it back or anything.
