Product details
Overview
74CBT1G125DCKRG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel FET bus switch optimized for high-speed digital signal routing in 3.3-V and 5-V systems. It features 5-Ω on-state resistance, TTL-compatible OE control input, and bidirectional signal pass-through between A and B ports when enabled. Used in data path isolation, level translation, and hot-swap I/O buffering applications.
For engineers reviewing the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 datasheet, 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 pinout, 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 application, or 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance consistency across VCC = 4–5.5 V, sub-1 ns propagation delay at 50-pF load, ±128-mA continuous channel current rating, and SC-70 (DCK) package thermal performance (θJA = 252°C/W).
Technical Context
This device implements a single NMOS transmission gate with no internal pull-ups or level-shifting circuitry - signal integrity relies on external biasing and termination. The OE input directly gates the FET channel; low OE enables conduction, high OE isolates A and B ports with <4 pF off-capacitance.
It operates within –40°C to 85°C ambient, supports supply voltages from 4 V to 5.5 V, and meets JESD 17 latch-up immunity (>250 mA) and JESD 22 ESD ratings (2000-V HBM, 200-V MM). No internal voltage regulation or slew-rate control is present - switching behavior follows passive FET characteristics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with both 3.3-V logic domains (with margin) and 5-V legacy buses |
| rON (Typ) | 5 Ω at VCC = 4.5 V, II = 30 mA - enables minimal voltage drop (<150 mV) under full-load signal switching |
| tpd (Max) | 0.35 ns at VCC = 4 V, CL = 50 pF - supports >1 GHz data rate signal routing without timing degradation |
| IO (Cont) | ±128 mA - allows direct connection to standard CMOS/TTL loads without external current limiting |
| Cio(OFF) | 4 pF - minimizes capacitive loading and crosstalk when port is disabled in high-density routing |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM - provides robust handling during board assembly and field service without added protection diodes |
| θJA | 252°C/W (SC-70) - defines thermal derating limit for sustained 128-mA operation in compact PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
74CBT1G125DCKRG4 uses the SC-70 (DCK) 5-pin surface-mount package (2.47 mm × 2.3 mm × 1.25 mm, 1.1 mm max height), optimized for space-constrained portable and industrial PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OE | Output Enable control input | Active-low logic signal; drives internal FET gate - must be tied to VCC or GND if unused to prevent floating state |
| 2 - A | Port A signal terminal | Bidirectional I/O node; connects to upstream logic or bus segment; no internal termination |
| 3 - GND | Power ground reference | Return path for all internal FET body ties and substrate bias - requires low-inductance PCB connection |
| 4 - VCC | Positive supply rail | Supplies gate drive and channel bias; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 3 mm of pin |
| 5 - B | Port B signal terminal | Bidirectional I/O node; electrically identical to A - supports true analog/digital signal pass-through |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5-Ω typical on-resistance | Ensures <150 mV voltage drop at 30 mA, preserving logic high/low margins across routed signals |
| TTL-compatible OE input | Accepts 0.8 V / 2.0 V thresholds - eliminates need for level translators when driven by legacy 5-V controllers |
| 2000-V HBM ESD protection | Reduces risk of field failure in unshielded interfaces like USB peripheral ports or test jigs |
| Sub-1 ns propagation delay | Maintains signal edge fidelity for DDR clock enable paths and high-speed serial control lines |
| 4 pF off-state capacitance | Prevents signal coupling between adjacent traces in dense FPGA I/O banks or memory subsystems |
Applications
| PCI Express Slot Isolation | USB 2.0 Data Line Buffering |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBT1G125DCKR | No G4 suffix; same electrical specs, identical SC-70 package, RoHS-compliant NIPDAU finish | No functional difference; differs only in TI's internal assembly/test site marking (SM3 vs SMU) | Select 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 for traceability to TI's G4-qualified production line with extended MSL-1 reflow profile. |
| 74LVC1G3157DPWR | Lower rON (3.5 Ω typ), dual SPDT configuration, 1.65–5.5 V VCC, higher Cio(OFF) (6.5 pF) | Supports dual independent switching paths but occupies larger SOT-23-6 footprint; less suitable for ultra-dense routing | Choose 74LVC1G3157DPWR only when dual-path routing or wider VCC range is required - not a pin-compatible replacement. |
Compared with SN74CBT1G125DCKR, the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 offers identical switching performance and thermal behavior but includes TI's G4 process qualification for enhanced long-term reliability in automotive-adjacent industrial deployments; versus 74LVC1G3157DPWR, it trades dual-channel flexibility for smaller size, lower off-capacitance, and tighter rON tolerance at 5 V.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4?
The 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 supports a supply voltage range of 4 V to 5.5 V under recommended conditions, with absolute maximum ratings extending to –0.5 V to 7 V on both VCC and I/O pins. Exceeding 5.5 V during normal operation risks parametric shift or accelerated wear-out, though short-duration transients up to 7 V are survivable per absolute max limits.
Does the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 support bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 is fully bidirectional: signal paths between A and B ports are symmetric with identical on-resistance (5–7 Ω), capacitance (4 pF off), and timing (0.25–0.35 ns tpd). No direction pin or internal biasing is required - signal direction is determined solely by external source/sink configuration.
Can the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 be used with 3.3-V logic systems?
Yes, the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 functions reliably with 3.3-V logic when VCC = 4 V minimum is maintained - its TTL-compatible OE input accepts 0.8 V (VIL) and 2.0 V (VIH) thresholds, allowing direct drive from 3.3-V microcontrollers without level shifters, provided VCC is set to ≥4 V for guaranteed rON and timing performance.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 in its SC-70 package?
The 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 in the SC-70 (DCK) package has a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 252°C/W under JEDEC JESD 51-7 conditions. This value assumes a standard 2-layer PCB with 1-in² copper pour; actual thermal performance improves with internal copper planes or thermal vias beneath the exposed pad area.
Is the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 pin-compatible with other members of the SN74CBT1G125 family?
Yes, the 74CBT1G125DCKRG4 shares identical pinout (OE, A, GND, VCC, B) and electrical behavior with all SC-70 variants including SN74CBT1G125DCKR and SN74CBT1G125DCKT. Differences are limited to packaging quantity, reel markings, and internal TI assembly codes - no PCB layout changes are needed when substituting within the DCK package group.
