Product details
Overview
74CBTLV3253PWRG4 from Texas Instruments is a dual 1-of-4 low-voltage FET multiplexer/demultiplexer with 5 Ω typical on-state resistance, rail-to-rail I/O switching, and Ioff support for partial-power-down operation. It operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V, delivers sub-1 ns propagation delay at 3.3 V, and is used in high-speed data routing for enterprise computing and wired networking systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 datasheet, 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 pinout, 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 application, or 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 equivalent, this device serves as a high-bandwidth, low-distortion analog/digital signal switch where minimal channel resistance, fast enable/disable timing, and power-off isolation are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
The 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 implements two independent 1-of-4 bidirectional FET switches controlled by active-low OE inputs and 2-bit binary select lines (S0, S1). Each switch path supports rail-to-rail voltage translation between common A ports and four B ports, with no internal level-shifting circuitry.
Its Ioff specification ensures <15 µA leakage when VCC = 0 V and any I/O port is biased between 0–3.6 V, enabling safe back-drive isolation during system power sequencing. Switching performance is characterized across –40°C to 85°C with guaranteed ten/tdis ≤ 5.5 ns at 3.3 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - Enables direct interface with 2.5 V and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| On-State Resistance | 5 Ω typical at VCC = 3 V, II = 64 mA - Minimizes voltage drop and signal attenuation in high-current analog/digital paths. |
| Propagation Delay | 0.15–0.25 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - Supports >1 GHz signal routing with negligible timing skew. |
| Ioff Leakage | 15 µA max at VCC = 0 V - Prevents damaging back-current flow during partial power-down sequences. |
| ESD Rating | HBM ±2000 V - Meets industrial-grade ESD robustness requirements for board-level handling and operation. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - Qualified for deployment in enterprise servers, telecom infrastructure, and industrial control environments. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package (5.00 mm × 4.40 mm), thin shrink small-outline package with exposed pad not present; lead finish NiPdAu, moisture sensitivity level 1 (260°C, unlimited reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Active-low output enable | Disables both 1-of-4 switch banks independently; high state forces all B ports into high-impedance mode. |
| S0, S1 | Binary select inputs | Control which of four B-port channels connects to corresponding A port (00→B1, 01→B2, 10→B3, 11→B4). |
| 1A, 2A | Common I/O terminals | Bidirectional signal path endpoints; tolerate VI/O up to 4.6 V regardless of VCC setting. |
| 1B1–1B4, 2B1–2B4 | Channel I/O terminals | Four per bank; each forms a low-Ron FET switch path with its A port when enabled and selected. |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 2.3–3.6 V supply powers internal bias and switch control; bypass capacitor required at pin 16. |
| GND | Ground reference | Reference for all input thresholds and output levels; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail I/O switching | Supports signal voltages from GND to 4.6 V independent of VCC, enabling mixed-voltage domain interfacing without external clamping. |
| Ioff partial-power-down protection | Blocks current flow between powered and unpowered system sections, eliminating need for external isolation diodes or power sequencing controllers. |
| 5 Ω typical on-resistance | Reduces insertion loss and harmonic distortion in high-frequency analog signals (e.g., video, clock distribution) and preserves digital edge integrity. |
| Sub-1 ns enable/disable timing | Allows dynamic channel reconfiguration within nanosecond-scale windows, supporting time-division multiplexing in real-time communication links. |
| Functionally equivalent to QS3253 | Enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs using IDT/RENESAS QS3253, preserving PCB layout and firmware control logic. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTLV3253PWR | Same silicon die, identical electrical specs, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish, MSL Level-1, same TSSOP-16 footprint. | No functional difference; differs only in packaging suffix (G4 denotes green/lead-free compliance per TI spec). | Select 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 for full TI green-material compliance documentation and traceable sourcing; otherwise 74CBTLV3253PWR is functionally interchangeable. |
| QS3253QG | Functionally equivalent per TI documentation; 5.5 Ω max Ron vs. 8 Ω max for 74CBTLV3253PWRG4; HBM ESD rated at ±2000 V same. | Validated in legacy IDT-based designs; slightly higher Ron may impact high-current analog paths but acceptable for digital control buses. | Choose QS3253QG only when redesigning around existing IDT-qualified layouts; 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 offers tighter Ron tolerance and broader temperature validation. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for I/O pins on the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4?
The 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 supports I/O voltages from –0.5 V to 4.6 V regardless of VCC level, enabling rail-to-rail signal switching and overvoltage tolerance in mixed-supply systems. This specification is validated across the full –40°C to +85°C operating range and allows safe interfacing with 5 V-tolerant peripherals even when VCC is set to 2.5 V or 3.3 V.
Does the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 support partial-power-down operation?
Yes, the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 fully supports partial-power-down via its Ioff feature: when VCC = 0 V, leakage current is limited to 15 µA maximum for any I/O pin biased between 0–3.6 V. This ensures no damaging back-current flows between powered and unpowered subsystems, a key requirement in hot-swap and modular power architectures.
What is the on-state resistance specification for the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 at 3.3 V supply?
At VCC = 3.3 V, the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 has a typical on-state resistance (Ron) of 5 Ω and a maximum of 7 Ω when tested with 64 mA current and 0 V input voltage. This low Ron minimizes insertion loss and maintains signal fidelity in both analog and high-speed digital applications such as PCIe lane switching or video signal routing.
Can the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 replace the QS3253 in existing designs?
Yes, the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 is explicitly documented by Texas Instruments as functionally equivalent to the QS3253. Pinout, timing, DC specifications, and switching behavior match closely - including 5 Ω Ron, rail-to-rail I/O, and Ioff support - enabling direct substitution in most QS3253-based layouts without PCB or firmware changes.
What thermal metrics apply to the 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 in TSSOP-16 package?
The 74CBTLV3253PWRG4 in TSSOP-16 (PW) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 129.1°C/W, junction-to-board (RθJB) of 87.1°C/W, and junction-to-case (top) (RθJC(top)) of 67°C/W. These values assume standard JEDEC test conditions and guide heatsinking decisions for continuous operation at ambient temperatures up to +85°C.
