Product details
Overview
CBT3125DB,112 from Nexperia is a quadruple FET bus switch IC with independent 5 Ω analog switches, TTL-compatible control inputs (1OE–4OE), VCC = 4.5–5.5 V operation, and SO14/SSOP14/TSSOP14 package options - used for bidirectional signal routing in high-speed digital buses such as PCI, ISA, and memory address/data lines.
For engineers reviewing the CBT3125DB,112 datasheet, CBT3125DB,112 pinout, CBT3125DB,112 application, or CBT3125DB,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include ON-resistance (5–7 Ω), enable/disable timing (1.0–5.4 ns), ESD robustness (HBM >2000 V), and SSOP14 footprint compatibility with legacy '125'-type layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent single-pole single-throw (SPST) NMOS FET switches, each controlled by an active-low output enable (nOE) input. Switch conduction occurs only when nOE is LOW, establishing a low-impedance path between corresponding A and B terminals.
It operates strictly in the 4.5–5.5 V supply range with static ICC ≤3 μA and supports bidirectional signal flow without direction control logic. The 1.7 pF input capacitance and 3.4 pF off-state I/O capacitance minimize loading on high-speed data lines.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with 5 V TTL and CMOS logic systems without level-shifting. |
| RON | 5–7 Ω at VCC = 4.5 V, II = 64 mA - enables low-loss signal pass-through for 3.3 V/5 V digital buses up to 10 MHz. |
| ten/tdis | 1.0–5.4 ns / 1.0–4.7 ns - supports fast bus arbitration and hot-swap isolation in real-time peripheral interfaces. |
| ESD HBM | >2000 V - meets industrial-grade handling requirements without external protection diodes. |
| CI | 1.7 pF - minimizes capacitive loading on clock or data lines in high-frequency address/data multiplexing. |
| Propagation Delay | 0.25 ns - preserves signal integrity in sub-nanosecond timing-critical paths like CPU-to-peripheral interconnects. |
Pinout & Package
CBT3125DB,112 uses the SOT337-1 (SSOP14) package: plastic shrink small outline, 14 leads, 5.3 mm body width, 0.65 mm lead pitch, and gull-wing surface-mount configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 10, 13 (1OE–4OE) | Active-low enable control | Each independently gates one switch; HIGH disables, LOW enables A↔B conduction. |
| 2, 5, 9, 12 (1A–4A) | Data input A-side | Bidirectional terminal; connects to source/microcontroller/bus driver side of signal path. |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 (1B–4B) | Data output B-side | Bidirectional terminal; connects to load/peripheral/memory side of signal path. |
| 7 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return for all switch channels and internal logic; must be low-impedance. |
| 14 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Power rail for internal FET bias and input buffers; requires local 100 nF decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Standard '125'-type pinout | Enables drop-in replacement for legacy 74LVC1G125, 74AUP1G125, and other quad buffer/bus switch footprints. |
| 5 Ω typical ON resistance | Reduces voltage drop and signal distortion across switched data/address lines at 5 V operation. |
| TTL-compatible inputs | Accepts standard 0.8 V/2.0 V VIH/VIL thresholds - eliminates need for external level translators in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Latch-up immunity >500 mA | Ensures robust operation under transient overvoltage or ground-bounce conditions per JESD78 Class II. |
Applications
| PCI Bus Isolation | ISA Expansion Slot Switching |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating add-in cards from main system bus during hot-plug insertion or power sequencing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad SPST analog switch enabling/disabling four independent data/address lanes synchronously via OE signals. Use Value: Prevents bus contention and back-driving during card insertion while maintaining sub-nanosecond propagation delay for timing-critical transfers. |
Use Scenario: Dynamically routing memory-mapped I/O or DMA channels between multiple ISA peripherals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional bus switch providing channel-selectable connectivity between CPU and legacy expansion devices. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete logic gating; 5 Ω RON preserves signal rise/fall times across 8-bit parallel buses operating up to 8 MHz. |
| Memory Address Multiplexing | Microcontroller Peripheral Sharing |
|
Use Scenario: Sharing a single SRAM or Flash address bus among multiple microcontrollers in a multi-master embedded system. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance analog switch isolating address lines (A0–A13) between masters and memory device. Use Value: 3.4 pF off-state capacitance prevents crosstalk and ghost addressing; 1.7 pF input capacitance avoids timing skew on critical address setup paths. |
Use Scenario: Allowing two microcontrollers to share a common UART, SPI, or parallel LCD interface without hardware conflict. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Direction-agnostic signal gate controlled by master arbitration logic to route TX/RX, MOSI/MISO, or data/control lines. Use Value: Enables seamless peripheral handover with <5 ns enable/disable latency - critical for deterministic real-time communication handshaking. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC1G125GW,125 | Single-channel, SC-70-5 package; RON = 12 Ω typical; no SSOP14 footprint. | Requires four separate placements for quad functionality; higher RON increases voltage drop at 24 mA drive. | Select when board space is constrained and channel independence outweighs footprint compatibility. |
| SN74CBT16212DGGR | 12-bit, TSSOP56 package; RON = 4 Ω; higher ICC (12 μA); wider VCC range (4.5–5.5 V). | Overkill for 4-signal routing; larger footprint and layout complexity for simple isolation tasks. | Select only when scaling to ≥8 switched lines and shared enable control is acceptable. |
Compared with 74LVC1G125GW,125 and SN74CBT16212DGGR, CBT3125DB,112 uniquely balances quad-channel integration, SSOP14 pinout compatibility, 5 Ω RON, and ultra-low 3 μA ICC - making it optimal for space-constrained, low-power, legacy-bus-compatible designs.

FAQ
Is CBT3125DB,112 pin-compatible with standard '125' logic devices?
Yes - it uses the industry-standard '125' pinout (1OE, 1A, 1B, 2OE, 2A, 2B, etc.) in SSOP14 (SOT337-1), matching physical layout and signal assignment of 74-series quad buffer devices. No PCB redesign is needed for drop-in replacement in existing '125'-footprint designs.
What is the maximum recommended operating frequency for CBT3125DB,112?
The device supports up to 10 MHz operation with 50 pF load capacitance, as verified in Table 9 of the datasheet. Its 0.25 ns propagation delay and 3.4 pF off-state capacitance ensure signal integrity on digital buses up to this frequency - beyond which transmission-line effects dominate.
Can unused nOE inputs be left floating?
No - per Table 5 Note [1], all unused control inputs must be tied to VCC or GND to prevent undefined switching states and excessive ICC. Floating nOE pins may cause partial turn-on of FETs, increasing leakage and degrading noise immunity.
Does CBT3125DB,112 support 3.3 V logic levels on its I/O ports?
Yes - although VCC must be 4.5–5.5 V, the device passes 3.3 V signals bidirectionally with minimal attenuation due to its 5–7 Ω RON. Input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V) are fully compatible with 3.3 V TTL outputs driving the nOE pins.
