Product details
Overview
CBT6820DGG,518 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is a 20-bit bi-directional TTL-compatible bus switch with precharged B-port outputs and Schottky undershoot protection for live insertion. It features 5 Ω on-resistance, 0.25 ns propagation delay at 5 V/50 pF, dual 10-bit sections with independent OE controls, and operates from –40°C to +85°C in a 48-pin TSSOP package. It is used in hot-pluggable backplane and modular system interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the CBT6820DGG,518 datasheet, CBT6820DGG,518 pinout, CBT6820DGG,518 application, or CBT6820DGG,518 equivalent, key selection criteria include live-insertion noise suppression via BIASV precharge, undershoot current handling up to –10 mA, latch-up immunity >500 mA, and ESD robustness (2000 V HBM).
Technical Context
The CBT6820DGG,518 implements two independent 10-bit switch banks, each controlled by its own OE input. When OE is low, A–B paths conduct with near-zero propagation delay and 5 Ω typical on-resistance; when OE is high, B ports are actively precharged to a user-supplied BIASV voltage through ~10 kΩ equivalent resistance.
Undershoot protection uses integrated Schottky diodes and clamp circuitry to prevent A-side negative transients (down to –1.2 V) from pulling B-side voltage below logic-high thresholds. Bias voltage range is 1.3 V to VCC, enabling compatibility with mixed-voltage systems including 3.3 V and 5 V domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typical - enables minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop across switch path under 30 mA load |
| Propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 0.25 ns typical at CL = 50 pF - supports high-speed data transfer without timing skew |
| BIASV range | 1.3 V to VCC - allows precharge alignment with downstream logic thresholds (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V) |
| Undershoot static current (IUSP) | –10 mA max - clamps negative transients to protect connected receivers during live insertion |
| Latch-up immunity | >500 mA per JESD78 - ensures robust operation in noisy industrial or telecom backplane environments |
| ESD protection | 2000 V HBM / 200 V MM / 1000 V CDM - meets stringent board-level reliability requirements |
| Supply voltage (VCC) | 4.0 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL and mixed 3.3 V/5 V I/O systems |
Pinout & Package
CBT6820DGG,518 is housed in a 48-pin plastic thin shrink small outline package (TSSOP), body width 6.1 mm, drawing SOT362–1, rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A10, 2A1–2A10 | Input/output port A terminals | Bi-directional data paths for first and second 10-bit switch banks |
| 1B1–1B10, 2B1–2B10 | Input/output port B terminals | Bi-directional data paths with active precharge to BIASV when OE is high |
| 1OE, 2OE | Enable inputs | Active-low control: OE = L enables A↔B conduction; OE = H places B ports in precharged high-impedance state |
| BIASV | Bias voltage reference | User-supplied voltage (1.3 V to VCC) setting precharge level for all B ports during disable |
| VCC | Positive supply | Primary power rail (4.0–5.5 V); powers internal logic and switch bias circuitry |
| GND (pins 8,17,32,41) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize switching noise and improve return path integrity |
Key Features

| Mixed-Voltage System Bridging | Legacy TTL-to-Modern Logic Interface |
Use Scenario: Interfacing 5 V TTL subsystems with 3.3 V microcontrollers or FPGAs in industrial controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-agnostic bus switch using BIASV = 3.3 V to precharge B-side to target logic threshold. Use Value: Avoids external level shifters; BIASV range (1.3 V to VCC) ensures safe, reliable translation without timing penalty. | Use Scenario: Upgrading legacy instrumentation with modern digital logic while retaining existing 5 V TTL signal paths. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Drop-in replacement for obsolete bus switches, maintaining identical pinout and TTL electrical behavior. Use Value: Delivers 5 Ω on-resistance and 0.25 ns delay - matching or exceeding performance of earlier-generation devices like 74CBT series. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD3384APW | 10-bit dual-channel, 3.3 V only supply (VCC = 2.3–3.6 V), no BIASV pin, no undershoot protection | Designed for low-voltage embedded systems; lacks live-insertion support and mixed-voltage flexibility | Select when operating exclusively at 3.3 V and undershoot risk is absent |
| 74CBTLV3245APW | 8-bit octal switch, 2.3–3.6 V supply, no BIASV, no Schottky undershoot clamps, lower channel count | Targeted at compact, low-power FPGA I/O expansion; insufficient for 20-bit backplane use | Choose only for space-constrained 8-bit interfaces without live-insertion requirements |
Compared with SN74CBTD3384APW and 74CBTLV3245APW, the CBT6820DGG,518 uniquely supports 20-bit live insertion via BIASV precharge and Schottky undershoot protection - critical for telecom and industrial modular systems where 5 V tolerance and transient resilience are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the function of the BIASV pin on the CBT6820DGG,518?
The BIASV pin on the CBT6820DGG,518 supplies a user-defined bias voltage (1.3 V to VCC) that precharges all B-port outputs when the corresponding OE is high. This prevents floating nodes and reduces noise during live insertion. For example, setting BIASV = 3.3 V ensures B-side logic levels align with downstream 3.3 V receivers before physical connection, directly improving system robustness in modular designs.
Does the CBT6820DGG,518 support true bi-directional signal flow?
Yes, the CBT6820DGG,518 supports fully bi-directional signal flow between A and B ports with near-symmetric 5 Ω on-resistance and 0.25 ns propagation delay in both directions. Its passive FET-based switch architecture imposes no directionality - data passes equally well from A-to-B or B-to-A, making it ideal for bidirectional data buses such as those found in PCI-style backplanes and memory-mapped I/O interfaces.
How does the CBT6820DGG,518 handle undershoot events during live insertion?
The CBT6820DGG,518 handles undershoot via integrated Schottky diodes and clamp circuitry that limit A-side negative transients to –1.2 V and sink up to –10 mA of undershoot current without affecting B-side voltage. This prevents false triggering or latch-up in connected receivers. The design ensures B-port precharge remains stable even when A-side signals dip below ground during mechanical mating - a key requirement validated per JESD22-A114 and JESD78 standards.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the CBT6820DGG,518?
CBT6820DGG,518 is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, as confirmed in the Philips/NXP product specification under Recommended Operating Conditions. This industrial-grade temperature range supports deployment in telecom equipment, factory automation controllers, and outdoor infrastructure where thermal cycling and sustained elevated temperatures are common.
Can the CBT6820DGG,518 replace older 74-series bus switches in existing designs?
Yes, the CBT6820DGG,518 can replace legacy 74CBT or 74FCT bus switches in 5 V systems due to identical TTL-compatible I/O thresholds, pin-compatible 48-pin TSSOP packaging (SOT362–1), and enhanced features including BIASV precharge and undershoot protection. Designers should verify BIASV routing and OE logic polarity but retain existing PCB layout - no trace modifications are required for drop-in functional upgrade.
