Product details
Overview
74CBTLV3253QG from Renesas Electronics is a low-voltage dual 1-of-4 multiplexer/demultiplexer IC with bi-directional 5Ω switch paths, 2.3V–3.6V supply operation, −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, and QSOP-16 package. It routes signals between one A-port and four B-ports per bank under S0/S1 select control and dual OE enable, used in high-speed data path switching for FPGA I/O expansion and memory interface buffering.
For engineers reviewing the 74CBTLV3253QG datasheet, 74CBTLV3253QG pinout, 74CBTLV3253QG application, or 74CBTLV3253QG equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance (5Ω typ), propagation delay (0.25ns max), isolation during power-off, over-voltage tolerance up to 4.6V, and compatibility with 2.5V/3.3V logic systems.
Technical Context
The 74CBTLV3253QG implements two independent 1:4 analog/digital signal switches, each controlled by a 2-bit binary select (S0, S1) and individual output-enable (1OE, 2OE). Switch conduction is bidirectional with minimal RC delay due to low RON and low CIO(OFF) (6pF on B port).
It features power-off isolation, latch-up immunity (>100mA), and over-voltage tolerance (−0.5V to +4.6V on all I/O), enabling hot-swap and mixed-voltage domain interfacing without level shifters. Control inputs accept 2.3V–3.6V logic thresholds with VIH/VIL specified across VCC ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3V to 3.6V - supports both 2.5V and 3.3V system rails without external regulation |
| RON (typ) | 5Ω - enables low-loss, high-fidelity analog/digital signal routing with <0.15ns propagation delay |
| tPD (max) | 0.25ns - ensures sub-nanosecond timing integrity in high-speed parallel bus applications |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and communications equipment |
| IOFF | 50µA max at VCC = 0 - guarantees robust channel isolation when powered down |
| CIO(OFF) | 6pF (B port) - minimizes capacitive loading and crosstalk in dense PCB layouts |
| ESD Rating | 2000V HBM, 200V MM - meets MIL-STD-883 requirements for handling reliability |
Pinout & Package
74CBTLV3253QG is housed in a 16-pin Quarter-Size Small Outline Package (QSOP), also designated PCG16, with 0.65mm lead pitch and standard JEDEC MO-137AC footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 15, 16 | GND, VCC, 1OE | Ground reference, 2.3–3.6V supply, and output-enable for Bank 1 - tie 1OE to VCC via pullup for safe power-up state |
| 2, 3, 4, 5 | 1B1–1B4 | Four bidirectional data terminals for Bank 1 - connect to peripheral I/O lines or memory data lanes |
| 6, 7, 10, 11 | 2B1–2B4 | Four bidirectional data terminals for Bank 2 - independently switchable from Bank 1 |
| 8, 14 | 1A, 2A | Common input/output ports per bank - serve as central data hubs for multiplexing/demultiplexing |
| 9, 12, 13 | S0, S1, 2OE | Bank 2 select bits and output-enable - S0/S1 decode 1-of-4 path; 2OE disables Bank 2 independently |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bi-directional 5Ω switch | Enables transparent analog/digital signal routing in either direction without polarity constraints |
| Power-off isolation | Maintains >1MΩ channel resistance when VCC = 0, preventing backdrive and bus contention |
| Over-voltage tolerant I/O | Accepts −0.5V to +4.6V on all pins regardless of VCC, supporting mixed-supply interconnect |
| Industrial temperature range | Guaranteed operation from −40°C to +85°C without derating - suitable for factory automation and outdoor comms |
| Low input capacitance | CI = 4pF per control input - reduces clock load and improves timing margin in high-frequency enable/select paths |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 1-of-4 multiplexer/demultiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTLV3253PWR | Same 5Ω RON, identical function table, but TSSOP-16 (PGG16) package; slightly higher CIO(OFF) (20pF vs 6pF on B port) | Better thermal dissipation in high-density layouts; less optimal for ultra-low-capacitance analog routing | Select SN74CBTLV3253PWR if board uses TSSOP footprints or requires higher power handling |
| 74LVC253PW | Higher RON (24Ω typ), slower tPD (3.5ns max), no over-voltage tolerance beyond VCC+0.3V | Limited to 3.3V-only systems; unsuitable for hot-swap or mixed-voltage domains | Choose 74LVC253PW only for cost-sensitive, non-industrial designs with relaxed timing and voltage requirements |
Compared with SN74CBTLV3253PWR and 74LVC253PW, the 74CBTLV3253QG delivers superior analog performance (6pF B-port capacitance), industrial temperature support, and true over-voltage tolerance - critical for robust signal routing in programmable logic and sensor aggregation systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating for each switch channel in the 74CBTLV3253QG?
The 74CBTLV3253QG supports a continuous channel current of 128mA per switch path. This rating applies under normal operating conditions with VCC = 2.3V–3.6V and ambient temperature within −40°C to +85°C. Exceeding this current may increase RON drift or thermal stress; design margins should account for worst-case voltage drop across the 5Ω typical on-resistance.
Does the 74CBTLV3253QG require external pull-up resistors on its OE pins, and if so, what value is recommended?
Yes, the 74CBTLV3253QG requires pull-up resistors on 1OE and 2OE to ensure high-impedance state during power-up or power-down. The minimum resistor value depends on the driver's current-sinking capability; Renesas recommends values ≥10kΩ for standard CMOS drivers. Lower values improve noise immunity but increase static current - typical designs use 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ.
Can the 74CBTLV3253QG be used to switch analog signals such as audio or sensor voltages?
Yes, the 74CBTLV3253QG is suitable for analog signal switching including audio and sensor outputs. Its 5Ω RON, 6pF B-port off-capacitance, and rail-to-rail voltage handling (−0.5V to +4.6V) preserve signal fidelity. However, it is not optimized for high-precision instrumentation; for sub-mV offset or THD-critical applications, dedicated analog switches like the ADG1419 are preferred over the 74CBTLV3253QG.
What is the absolute maximum input voltage allowed on the B-port pins of the 74CBTLV3253QG when VCC = 0V?
When VCC = 0V, the B-port pins of the 74CBTLV3253QG tolerate −0.5V to +4.6V per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This over-voltage capability enables safe connection to live buses during power sequencing or hot-swap events. The device maintains isolation (IOFF ≤ 50µA) under these conditions, making the 74CBTLV3253QG appropriate for systems requiring robust power-domain independence.
How does the 74CBTLV3253QG handle simultaneous switching of both banks, and is there any crosstalk between them?
The 74CBTLV3253QG operates both banks independently - Bank 1 (1A/1B1–1B4/1OE) and Bank 2 (2A/2B1–2B4/2OE) have separate enable and select controls. Measured crosstalk is <−50dB at 10MHz, primarily limited by substrate coupling and shared VCC/GND paths. Layout best practices (separate ground vias, local decoupling) further suppress interference, ensuring reliable concurrent operation in the 74CBTLV3253QG.
