Product details
Overview
SN74CB3Q16211DGG from Texas Instruments is a 24-bit, 56-pin TSSOP FET bus switch optimized for high-bandwidth digital signal routing in low-voltage systems. It supports rail-to-rail switching (0 V to 5 V with 3.3-V VCC), delivers 5 Ω typical ON-state resistance, enables bidirectional data flow with near-zero propagation delay (0.15 ns), and operates across 2.3 V–3.6 V supply range - ideal for PCIe interconnect isolation and memory interleaving in embedded PCs.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CB3Q16211DGG datasheet, SN74CB3Q16211DGG pinout, SN74CB3Q16211DGG application, or SN74CB3Q16211DGG equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500-MHz bandwidth capability, 5-V-tolerant I/Os under powered-up/down conditions, Ioff-enabled partial-power-down support, and compatibility with 0.8-V to 5-V signaling standards including DDR, PCI, and differential interfaces.
Technical Context
The SN74CB3Q16211DGG implements two independent 12-bit FET bus switches with separate 1OE and 2OE controls, enabling flexible configuration as either dual 12-bit or single 24-bit switch. Its charge-pump gate drive elevates pass-transistor gate voltage to maintain flat, low ron (5 Ω typ.) across input voltage range and supply voltages.
Each switch channel features 4 pF typical OFF-state I/O capacitance, undershoot clamp diodes on all data and control inputs, and full JESD78 Class II latch-up immunity (>100 mA). The device supports TTL- and CMOS-compatible control inputs and guarantees 5-V tolerance on I/O pins regardless of VCC state - critical for hot-swap and mixed-voltage domain bridging.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - enables operation in both 2.5-V and 3.3-V system rails without level shifters |
| ron (typ.) | 5 Ω - ensures minimal insertion loss and signal distortion up to 500 MHz |
| Cio(OFF) (typ.) | 4 pF - reduces capacitive loading on high-speed buses like PCIe Gen1/2 and DDR2 |
| Propagation Delay | 0.15 ns - supports near-transparent signal gating with sub-nanosecond timing integrity |
| Ioff | 1 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents backflow current during partial power-down, protecting upstream drivers |
| Switching Frequency | 20 MHz max fOE - defines maximum toggle rate for enable-controlled bus isolation |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded computing and AV equipment |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A12, 2A1–2A12 | Data Input A-side (Port A) | 12-bit input channels per switch bank; accept 0–5 V signals regardless of VCC state |
| 1B1–1B12, 2B1–2B12 | Data Output B-side (Port B) | Corresponding bidirectional output terminals; mirror A-side voltage with <5 Ω ron |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output Enable (active-low) | Independent control of each 12-bit switch; OE low connects A↔B, OE high places port in high-Z |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.3–3.6 V rail powers internal charge pump and logic; no auxiliary supplies required |
| GND (pins 8, 17, 35, 43) | Ground Reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce in high-speed 24-bit switching |
| NC (pin 1) | No Internal Connection | Unused pad; must remain unconnected per TI layout guidelines |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBT16211DGGR | Higher ron (7 Ω typ.), no charge pump, 2.5-V–3.6-V only, lower bandwidth (~300 MHz) | Lacks 5-V I/O tolerance and rail-to-rail capability; unsuitable for mixed-voltage hot-swap | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs performance requirements and system uses uniform 3.3-V signaling |
| PI3CH480ELEX | 16-bit (not 24-bit), 3.3-V only, 6 Ω ron, 4-pF Cio(OFF), no Ioff support | Requires external power sequencing for partial-power-down; insufficient channel count for full 24-bit bus | Consider only for space-constrained 16-bit applications where TI's Widebus® ecosystem compatibility is not required |
Compared with SN74CB3Q16211DGG, SN74CBT16211DGGR trades bandwidth and voltage flexibility for lower cost, while PI3CH480ELEX offers smaller footprint but lacks critical Ioff and 5-V tolerance needed for robust system-level integration.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74CB3Q16211DGG?
The SN74CB3Q16211DGG supports up to 500 MHz bandwidth for high-speed data paths, verified under loaded conditions with 30-pF test capacitance. Its 20 MHz maximum OE switching frequency defines control-side toggle limits, while propagation delay remains fixed at 0.15 ns regardless of data rate - making SN74CB3Q16211DGG suitable for PCIe Gen1/2, DDR2, and LVDS applications where signal fidelity is critical.
Does the SN74CB3Q16211DGG support 5-V tolerant I/Os when VCC is unpowered?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q16211DGG maintains full 5-V tolerance on all data I/O pins (A and B ports) whether VCC is powered or fully off. This is enabled by integrated clamp diodes and robust oxide design, allowing safe connection to live 5-V buses during system power sequencing - a key requirement validated in SN74CB3Q16211DGG's absolute maximum ratings table (VI/O = –0.5 V to 7 V).
How does the charge pump in the SN74CB3Q16211DGG improve performance?
The internal charge pump in the SN74CB3Q16211DGG elevates the gate voltage of the pass FETs above VCC, ensuring strong enhancement-mode conduction across the full 0–5 V input range. This delivers flat 5 Ω typical ron independent of input voltage - unlike non-pumped switches whose ron rises sharply near VCC - directly improving signal rise/fall times and reducing harmonic distortion in SN74CB3Q16211DGG-based interfaces.
Can the SN74CB3Q16211DGG be used in partial-power-down mode?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q16211DGG incorporates Ioff circuitry that actively disables current paths when VCC = 0 V, limiting leakage to 1 µA maximum. This allows safe insertion into live backplanes or hot-swappable modules without damaging upstream drivers - a feature explicitly tested per JESD78 Class II and confirmed in SN74CB3Q16211DGG's electrical characteristics table.
What package type is used for the SN74CB3Q16211DGG?
The SN74CB3Q16211DGG uses the TSSOP-56 (DGG) package: 14.00 mm × 6.10 mm body size, 1.2 mm maximum height, 0.5 mm lead pitch, and NiPdAu lead finish. It is RoHS-compliant, MSL Level-1 rated, and supplied in 2000-piece tape-and-reel format - matching mechanical specifications in TI's official DGG0056A package outline drawing.
