Product details
Overview
74CBTLV16245PAG8 from Renesas Electronics is a low-voltage 16-bit bus switch IC organized as dual 8-bit bidirectional switches with independent active-low Output Enable (1OE, 2OE) control. It features 5Ω typical on-resistance, operates from 2.3V to 3.6V, supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and provides isolation under power-off conditions. It is used for high-speed 3.3V bus switching and isolation in memory expansion and peripheral interface subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 datasheet, 74CBTLV16245PAG8 pinout, 74CBTLV16245PAG8 application, or 74CBTLV16245PAG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional RON ≤ 8Ω at 3.3V, VCC-tolerant I/O up to 4.6V, OE-controlled high-impedance state, and TSSOP-48 package compatibility with legacy 16245 footprint layouts.
Technical Context
The 74CBTLV16245PAG8 implements two independent 8-bit LVTTL-compatible bus switches, each controlled by its own active-low OE input. Its CMOS transmission-gate architecture enables true bidirectional signal flow with sub-0.25ns propagation delay and nanosecond-scale enable/disable timing.
Each switch channel exhibits low on-resistance (5Ω typ. at VCC = 3.3V, IO = 24mA), overvoltage tolerance (±0.5V beyond VCC), and guaranteed isolation (IOFF ≤ 10µA at VCC = 0V), making it suitable for hot-swap and partial-power-down scenarios in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3V to 3.6V - supports core logic supply rails in modern 3.3V digital systems without level-shifting. |
| RON (Typ.) | 5Ω at VCC = 3.3V, IO = 24mA - ensures minimal voltage drop and signal distortion for high-speed data buses. |
| tPD | 0.15–0.25ns - enables operation in >1GHz clock domains with negligible timing skew between A/B ports. |
| IOFF | ≤10µA at VCC = 0V - guarantees robust isolation during system power sequencing or standby modes. |
| ESD Rating | >2000V HBM, >200V MM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements without external protection. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for use in industrial control, networking, and embedded computing environments. |
| Input Clamp | VIK ≥ –1.2V - protects against negative transients on I/O lines during hot insertion or fault conditions. |
Pinout & Package
74CBTLV16245PAG8 is housed in a 48-pin Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP), designated PAG48, with 0.5mm pitch and exposed pad not present. Pin assignment follows standard 16245 layout for drop-in compatibility with legacy designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Active-low Output Enable | Controls respective 8-bit switch bank; high = high-Z isolation, low = bidirectional conduction path. |
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 | Port A I/O | First and second 8-bit bidirectional data terminals; electrically identical to Port B pins. |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 | Port B I/O | Corresponding 8-bit bidirectional data terminals; fully symmetrical with Port A. |
| VCC, GND | Power Supply | Two VCC and three GND pins distributed across package for low-impedance supply routing and noise reduction. |
| NC | No Connect | Four unconnected pins (pins 4, 9, 10, 33) - must remain unpopulated and unconnected per design. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional Low-RON Switching | 5Ω typical on-resistance enables lossless signal transfer in both directions without direction control logic. |
| Power-Off Isolation | Guaranteed IOFF ≤ 10µA when VCC = 0V - prevents back-driving and leakage between powered/unpowered subsystems. |
| Overvoltage Tolerance | I/O pins withstand –0.5V to 4.6V regardless of VCC state - eliminates need for external clamping diodes in mixed-voltage interfaces. |
| LVTTL-Compatible Control | VIL ≤ 0.8V and VIH ≥ 2.0V at VCC = 3.6V - ensures reliable interfacing with standard 3.3V logic families. |
| Industrial Temperature Operation | Specified performance across –40°C to +85°C - validated for deployment in factory automation and outdoor telecom equipment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTLV16245PAG | Same die, identical electrical specs; differs only in packaging - tube vs. tape-and-reel delivery. | No functional difference; suitable for same PCB layouts and thermal profiles. | Select based on assembly line feeding requirements: PAG for manual/slow-volume, PAG8 for automated SMT placement. |
| 74LVC16245APAG | Higher RON (12Ω typ.), no overvoltage tolerance, lower ESD rating (1500V HBM), and no guaranteed power-off isolation. | Not recommended for hot-swap or mixed-voltage isolation; limited to static 3.3V-only interconnects. | Choose only if cost sensitivity outweighs robustness needs and system does not require VCC-off isolation. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the I/O pins of the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 when VCC is unpowered?
The 74CBTLV16245PAG8 guarantees overvoltage tolerance up to –0.5V to 4.6V on all I/O pins regardless of VCC state. When VCC = 0V, this allows safe connection to live 3.3V or 5V buses without risk of latch-up or damage - a key feature enabling hot-swap functionality in backplane and modular systems using the 74CBTLV16245PAG8.
Does the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 support true bidirectional signal flow without direction control pins?
Yes, the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 uses CMOS transmission-gate topology that enables passive, symmetric bidirectional conduction between Port A and Port B. Unlike transceivers, it requires no DIR pin - data flows equally well from A-to-B or B-to-A whenever the corresponding OE is asserted low. This simplifies PCB routing and eliminates direction-control timing constraints in the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 implementation.
How should unused OE inputs be handled on the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 to ensure proper startup behavior?
All unused OE inputs on the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 must be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor (typically 10kΩ) to guarantee high-impedance state during power-up. Leaving OE floating risks metastable switching or unintended bus connection, potentially causing data corruption or bus contention. This requirement is explicitly documented in the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 datasheet to ensure deterministic initialization.
What is the typical on-resistance (RON) of the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 at 2.5V supply and how does it affect signal integrity?
At VCC = 2.5V ± 0.2V and IO = 24mA, the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 exhibits RON = 5Ω to 8Ω (typical 5Ω). This low resistance minimizes voltage drop (<200mV) and preserves rise/fall times across 50Ω–100Ω transmission lines, ensuring clean signal edges and reduced jitter in high-speed digital interfaces using the 74CBTLV16245PAG8.
Is the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 pin-compatible with older 74-series bus switches like the 74ACT16245?
No, the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 is not pin-compatible with 74ACT16245 due to differences in power pin distribution and NC placements. While both follow the 16245 functional pinout convention, the 74CBTLV16245PAG8 has four NC pins (4, 9, 10, 33) and dual VCC/triple GND arrangement optimized for TSSOP-48, whereas 74ACT16245 uses SOIC-48 with different pin assignments. Board redesign is required to migrate to the 74CBTLV16245PAG8.
