Product details
Overview
74CBTLV1G125CRE4 from Texas Instruments is a low-voltage single FET bus switch with 5-Ω on-state resistance, rail-to-rail switching capability, and Ioff support for partial-power-down mode. It operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V, features 0.15 ns propagation delay at 3.3 V, and is used in high-speed data path isolation for portable computing and interface bridging.
For engineers reviewing the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 datasheet, 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 pinout, 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 application, or 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance stability across voltage range, Ioff leakage under power-down, OE-controlled high-impedance state timing, and SC-70 package thermal performance in space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-channel NMOS transmission gate switch with no internal level-shifting or buffering. Its control logic is purely OE-driven: low OE enables bidirectional conduction between A and B ports; high OE forces both ports into high-impedance isolation.
The switch uses FET-based topology with rail-to-rail signal handling-supporting input/output voltages from GND to VCC-and incorporates Ioff circuitry that limits backflow current to ≤10 µA when VCC = 0 V and port voltages range from 0 to 3.6 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-state resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typical at VCC = 3 V, enabling minimal signal attenuation in high-speed digital paths |
| Supply voltage range | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 2.5 V and 3.3 V logic domains without level translation |
| Ioff leakage | 10 µA max at VCC = 0 V - ensures safe isolation during partial power-down of subsystems |
| Propagation delay (tpd) | 0.15 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V - supports >3 GHz signal bandwidth in point-to-point links |
| Enable/disable time (ten/tdis) | 1–4 ns - guarantees fast, deterministic bus arbitration and hot-swap readiness |
| Input capacitance (Ci) | 2.5 pF - minimizes loading on driving logic and preserves signal edge integrity |
| Off-state I/O capacitance (Cio(OFF)) | 7 pF - reduces crosstalk and maintains channel isolation at high frequencies |
Pinout & Package
74CBTLV1G125CRE4 is packaged in a 5-pin SC-70 (DCK) surface-mount package measuring 2.0 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.9 mm, optimized for high-density routing and thermal dissipation in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE (Output Enable) | Active-low control input; drives switch to high-Z when high; must be pulled up to VCC during power sequencing |
| 2 | A | Input/output port A - bidirectional, rail-to-rail capable, connects to upstream logic or controller |
| 3 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal FET gate drive and defines logic threshold for OE |
| 4 | B | Input/output port B - bidirectional, rail-to-rail capable, connects to downstream bus or peripheral |
| 5 | GND | Ground reference - return path for switch current and control logic; requires low-inductance connection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5-Ω low on-resistance | Preserves signal integrity in 50-Ω and 75-Ω trace environments; avoids reflection-induced jitter in DDR/USB paths |
| Ioff partial-power-down protection | Prevents back-current flow when VCC is off but A/B ports remain biased - critical for hot-plug and multi-rail SoC designs |
| Rail-to-rail I/O voltage range | Supports full-swing signals from GND to VCC without clamping or distortion - essential for mixed-voltage interconnects |
| Sub-nanosecond propagation delay | Enables use in >1 Gbps serial links and high-frequency clock/data gating without timing skew penalties |
| SC-70 footprint compatibility | Matches industry-standard 5-pin SC-70 layout - allows drop-in replacement with SN74CBTLV1G125DCKR and other TI SC-70 bus switches |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTLV1G125DCKR | Identical electrical specs and SC-70 (DCK) package; top-side marking "VM_" vs "74CBTLV1G125CR"; RoHS-compliant with same Cu/NiPdAu finish | No functional difference; identical pinout, timing, and thermal behavior; differs only in TI internal orderable ID and reel packaging | Select when sourcing from standard TI distribution channels with preference for non-E4 suffix; fully interchangeable in design and layout |
| 74LVC1G3157GW,125 | Higher ron (10 Ω typ), wider VCC range (1.65–5.5 V), slower tpd (2.5 ns), different pinout (OE on Pin 5, GND on Pin 1) | Acceptable for lower-speed GPIO multiplexing but unsuitable for >500 Mbps signaling due to higher resistance and capacitance | Choose only if 1.65 V operation or 5 V tolerance is required; requires PCB redesign due to inverted pin assignment and larger package footprint |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4?
The 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This range is validated per JEDEC JESD78 and applies across the full 2.3 V to 3.6 V supply range. Thermal derating is not required within this envelope, and the SC-70 package's 252°C/W θJA ensures safe junction temperatures under typical load conditions.
Does the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 support true bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 supports fully bidirectional analog/digital signal flow between its A and B ports when OE is low. Its FET-based architecture imposes no directionality-signals pass equally well from A→B or B→A with identical 5 Ω ron, 7 pF Cio(OFF), and sub-nanosecond timing characteristics in both directions.
Can the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 be used with 1.8 V logic systems?
No-the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 has a minimum recommended VCC of 2.3 V and is not characterized for reliable operation below that voltage. Attempting to run it at 1.8 V may result in undefined OE threshold behavior, increased ron, and failure to meet tpd or Ioff specifications. For 1.8 V systems, consider TI's SN74AUC1G125 or similar AUC-family devices.
Is a pull-up resistor required on the OE pin of the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4?
Yes-a pull-up resistor to VCC is strongly recommended on the OE pin to ensure a defined high state during power-up and power-down sequences. TI specifies the minimum value based on the driver's sink capability; for most microcontroller GPIOs, a 10 kΩ resistor provides sufficient noise immunity while limiting current to <1 µA during normal operation.
How does the Ioff feature of the 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 protect system-level circuits?
The Ioff feature limits current flow to ≤10 µA when VCC = 0 V and either A or B port is biased between 0 V and 3.6 V. This prevents damaging back-current from powered subsystems into unpowered rails-critical in multi-voltage SoCs, hot-swap peripherals, and battery-backed modules where isolated power domains must remain electrically decoupled during sleep states. The 74CBTLV1G125CRE4 achieves this without external components or special sequencing.
