Product details
Overview
SN74CB3Q16245DLR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit FET bus switch optimized for high-bandwidth digital signal routing in 2.5-V/3.3-V systems. It features dual 8-bit bidirectional channels (1A↔1B and 2A↔2B), 5-Ω typical ON-state resistance, rail-to-rail 0–5-V switching capability at 3.3-V VCC, and <0.3 ns propagation delay. It serves as a low-distortion, low-capacitance interface for memory interleaving and PCI bus isolation.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CB3Q16245DLR datasheet, SN74CB3Q16245DLR pinout, SN74CB3Q16245DLR application, or SN74CB3Q16245DLR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500-MHz bandwidth support, Ioff-enabled partial-power-down operation, 4-pF typical OFF-state I/O capacitance, and SSOP-48 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The SN74CB3Q16245DLR implements a charge-pump-enhanced FET architecture to maintain flat, low ron (5 Ω typ) across 0–5-V signal swings, enabling rail-to-rail analog/digital signal pass-through without level translation. Its dual independent OE controls (1OE, 2OE) allow granular channel enable/disable for dynamic bus segmentation.
Each 8-bit channel operates bidirectionally with near-zero propagation delay (0.18–0.3 ns), minimal loading (Cio(OFF) = 4 pF typ), and 5-V-tolerant I/Os-functional whether VCC is powered (2.3–3.6 V) or fully off. The device meets JESD 78 Class II latch-up immunity (>100 mA) and JESD 22 ESD ratings (2000-V HBM, 1000-V CDM).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Operating Range | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - supports both 2.5-V and 3.3-V system rails with single supply |
| ON-State Resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typical - ensures minimal voltage drop and signal attenuation across full 0–5-V swing |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 0.18–0.3 ns - enables timing-critical high-speed data paths up to 500 MHz |
| I/O Capacitance (Cio(OFF)) | 4 pF typical - reduces bus loading and preserves signal integrity in multi-drop configurations |
| OE Toggle Frequency (fOE) | 20 MHz max - allows rapid channel switching for dynamic bus arbitration |
| Supply Current (ICC) | 1 mA typical - ultra-low static power for always-on signal gating applications |
| Signal Voltage Range | 0–5.5 V on I/O ports - interoperable with 0.8-V to 5-V logic families without external level shifters |
Pinout & Package
SN74CB3Q16245DLR is housed in a 48-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package) with 0.5-mm pitch, 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm body, and 1.2-mm max height per JEDEC MO-153. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner (quadrant Q1), with no internal connection on pins 1 and 48.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 | Input/Output Port A (Channel 1 & 2) | Bidirectional data terminals connected to upstream logic/memory; tolerate 0–5.5 V |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 | Input/Output Port B (Channel 1 & 2) | Bidirectional data terminals connected to downstream bus/peripheral; 5-V tolerant |
| 1OE, 2OE | Channel Enable Inputs | Active-low controls: OE = L enables A↔B conduction; OE = H isolates ports into high-Z |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.3–3.6 V core supply; powers internal charge pump for gate voltage boosting |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return for all signal and power paths; 10 pins distributed for low-noise operation |
| NC (Pins 1, 48) | No Internal Connection | Unbonded pads - must be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability only |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail analog/digital switching | Supports 0–5-V signals at 3.3-V VCC - eliminates need for external level translators in mixed-voltage systems |
| Ioff partial-power-down protection | Blocks backflow current when VCC = 0 - prevents damage during hot-insertion or staggered power sequencing |
| Charge-pump gate drive | Maintains flat 5-Ω ron across full input voltage range - ensures consistent timing and amplitude response |
| Low OFF-state I/O capacitance | 4 pF typical - minimizes crosstalk and signal distortion in high-speed parallel buses |
| 5-V tolerant control inputs | Accepts TTL or 3.3-V/5-V CMOS logic levels on OE - simplifies interface with legacy or mixed-supply controllers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBT16245DLR | Higher ron (7 Ω typ), no charge pump, 3.3-V only VCC range (4.5–5.5 V not supported) | Limited to 3.3-V-only systems; cannot support 0–5-V rail-to-rail switching | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs 5-V tolerance and ultra-low ron requirements |
| SN74LVC16245ADLR | CMOS-based transceiver (not FET switch); higher Cio(OFF) (12 pF), unidirectional with direction control | Requires direction pin and level-shifting for bidirectional 5-V signaling; adds timing overhead | Choose only if strict 3.3-V logic compatibility and direction-controlled buffering are required |
Compared with SN74CB3Q16245DLR, SN74CBT16245DLR trades 5-V tolerance and flat ron for lower unit cost, while SN74LVC16245ADLR replaces passive FET gating with active CMOS buffering-introducing direction latency and higher capacitive loading unsuitable for high-fidelity analog signal routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum signal frequency supported by the SN74CB3Q16245DLR?
The SN74CB3Q16245DLR supports signal bandwidths up to 500 MHz, verified by its low 5-Ω typical ON-state resistance and 4-pF OFF-state I/O capacitance. This performance enables clean signal transmission in high-speed digital interfaces such as PCI and memory bus applications without significant rise-time degradation or jitter accumulation.
Does the SN74CB3Q16245DLR support 5-V tolerant I/O when VCC is powered down?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q16245DLR maintains 5-V tolerance on all I/O ports (A and B) regardless of VCC state-whether powered at 2.3–3.6 V or fully at 0 V. This is enabled by its Ioff circuitry and robust clamp diodes, making it safe for hot-swap and partial-power-down system architectures.
Can the SN74CB3Q16245DLR be used for analog signal switching?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q16245DLR is explicitly qualified for both digital and analog applications-including differential signal interfaces and low-distortion gating-due to its rail-to-rail 0–5-V switching capability, flat ron, and low Cio(OFF). Its FET architecture avoids CMOS threshold limitations, preserving analog waveform fidelity.
What is the recommended pull-up resistor value for OE pins on the SN74CB3Q16245DLR?
TI recommends tying OE pins to VCC through a pull-up resistor to ensure high-impedance state during power-up/down. The minimum value depends on the driver's current-sinking capability; for standard CMOS drivers, 4.7 kΩ to 10 kΩ is typical. Lower values improve noise immunity but increase static current draw.
Is the SN74CB3Q16245DLR RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q16245DLR is RoHS compliant and features a green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) eco plan with NiPdAu (NIPDAU) lead finish. It carries JEDEC MSL Level-1 rating (260°C peak reflow, unlimited floor life) and is qualified for industrial temperature operation (–40°C to +85°C).
