Product details
Overview
CBT3244APW from Nexperia is an octal bus switch with dual 4-bit low-impedance bidirectional switches, TTL-compatible control inputs, 5 Ω typical ON-state resistance, <0.25 ns propagation delay, and operation from –40 °C to +85 °C. It enables high-speed data routing in memory address/data buses and peripheral interface isolation.
For engineers reviewing the CBT3244APW datasheet, CBT3244APW pinout, CBT3244APW application, or CBT3244APW equivalent, this device supports fast bidirectional signal pass-through with independent quad-output enable control, low capacitive loading (3 pF), and robust ESD protection (2000 V HBM).
Technical Context
The CBT3244APW implements two independent 4-bit analog bus switches, each controlled by a dedicated active-low output-enable input (1OE, 2OE). Its TTL-compatible logic thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) allow direct interfacing with legacy 5 V logic families without level translation.
Each switch path exhibits near-symmetric conduction (Ron = 4–7 Ω at 4.5 V, 64 mA), enabling bidirectional signal flow with minimal voltage drop and distortion. The device operates exclusively from a single 4.5–5.5 V supply and draws only 1 μA typical quiescent current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ON-state resistance | 4–7 Ω at 4.5 V/64 mA - ensures <50 mV voltage drop under full load, preserving signal integrity in 5 V systems |
| Propagation delay | <0.25 ns - enables sub-nanosecond timing-critical bus switching for high-speed memory and I/O interfaces |
| Enable/disable time | 1.0–6.0 ns - guarantees rapid channel isolation during bus arbitration or power sequencing |
| Input capacitance | 3 pF on control pins - minimizes loading on driving logic and reduces dynamic power consumption |
| ESD protection | 2000 V HBM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements without external protection components |
| Supply voltage range | 4.5–5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL and CMOS rails, no regulation required |
| Operating temperature | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for extended industrial environments including factory automation and telecom infrastructure |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1): 20-pin thin shrink small outline, 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 19 | 1OE, 2OE | Active-low enable inputs controlling respective 4-bit switch banks; drive HIGH to isolate ports |
| 2, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13, 15, 17 | 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4 | Switch input terminals - bidirectional ports accepting signals from either side when enabled |
| 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18 | 1B1–1B4, 2B1–2B4 | Switch output terminals - electrically identical to A-side; no fixed directionality |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and signal return path |
| 20 | VCC | Single 4.5–5.5 V supply rail powering switch transistors and control logic |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Standard '244-type pinout | Direct drop-in replacement for legacy 74LS244/74HC244 in existing PCB layouts without redesign |
| 5 Ω typical Ron | Enables <50 mV IR drop at 10 mA, preserving TTL logic margins across loaded backplanes |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD78 - prevents destructive latch-up during hot-swap or transient overvoltage events |
| Bidirectional signal flow | No internal direction control needed - simplifies firmware and eliminates directional configuration overhead |
| Low ICC quiescent current | 1 μA typical - supports always-on monitoring paths without impacting system power budget |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD3384PWR | Higher Ron (7–10 Ω), wider supply range (2.3–3.6 V or 4.5–5.5 V), higher ICC (10 μA) | Optimized for mixed-voltage 3.3 V/5 V systems; less suitable for pure 5 V legacy designs | Choose when dual-supply flexibility or lower-voltage support is required; avoid if minimizing propagation delay is critical |
| 74LVC244APW | Non-analog buffer (digital output), higher output drive (24 mA), no bidirectional capability, 3.3 V only | Provides level-shifting and drive strength but cannot pass analog or bidirectional signals | Use only for unidirectional digital buffering; not a functional substitute for bus switching or analog signal routing |
Compared with SN74CBTD3384PWR and 74LVC244APW, the CBT3244APW delivers the lowest propagation delay (<0.25 ns) and true bidirectional analog switching in a pin-compatible '244 footprint, making it optimal for high-speed legacy 5 V bus isolation where signal fidelity and timing predictability are essential.

FAQ
Is the CBT3244APW suitable for bidirectional analog signal switching?
Yes. The CBT3244APW is a true analog bus switch with symmetric ON-state resistance (4–7 Ω) and no internal directionality. It passes analog or digital signals bidirectionally between A and B ports when enabled, supporting applications like audio routing or sensor sharing where signal polarity must be preserved.
What is the maximum capacitive load the CBT3244APW can drive while maintaining specified timing?
The CBT3244APW's 0.25 ns propagation delay is characterized with a 50 pF load. Its 3 pF input/output capacitance ensures minimal added loading, and the device reliably drives up to 50 pF total load (including trace and destination capacitance) without exceeding timing specifications or degrading edge rates in 5 V systems.
Can CBT3244APW operate at 3.3 V supply?
No. The CBT3244APW is specified only for 4.5–5.5 V operation. At 3.3 V, its ON-state resistance rises significantly (>15 Ω), enable thresholds become unreliable, and ESD performance degrades. For 3.3 V systems, consider the SN74CBTD3384 or NX3DV384 instead.
Does the TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1) include an exposed thermal pad?
No. Unlike the DHVQFN20 variant (SOT764-1), the CBT3244APW in TSSOP20 (SOT360-1) has no exposed thermal pad. Thermal dissipation relies solely on leadframe conduction through the 20 gull-wing leads; junction-to-ambient θJA is 110 °C/W per datasheet characterization.
