Product details
Overview
SN74CB3Q6800DBQR from Texas Instruments is a 10-bit FET bus switch with precharged B-port outputs, designed for high-bandwidth bidirectional signal routing in 2.3–3.6 V systems. It delivers 4.5 Ω typical ON-state resistance, <0.225 ns propagation delay, 500 MHz bandwidth support, and 5-V tolerant I/Os-enabling low-distortion PCI interface and hot-plug applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR datasheet, SN74CB3Q6800DBQR pinout, SN74CB3Q6800DBQR application, or SN74CB3Q6800DBQR equivalent, key selection considerations include precharge-enabled live-insertion noise suppression, rail-to-rail switching across 0–5 V signaling levels, partial-power-down (Ioff) capability, and SSOP-24 package compatibility with space-constrained board layouts.
Technical Context
The SN74CB3Q6800DBQR integrates a charge-pump circuit to elevate gate voltage of pass transistors, ensuring flat, low ron (4.5 Ω typ) across input voltages from 0 V to 5.5 V. Its internal bias voltage (BIASV) precharges B-port outputs to minimize signal distortion during card insertion/removal.
Control logic uses a single active-low ON input to enable bidirectional A↔B conduction; when disabled, B ports are pulled to BIASV via ~10-kΩ equivalent resistance while A ports enter high-Z. The device supports TTL- and CMOS-compatible control inputs and features undershoot clamp diodes on all data and control pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - Enables interoperability with both 2.5 V and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| ron (Typ) | 4.5 Ω - Ensures minimal voltage drop and near-zero propagation delay (<0.225 ns) under 30 mA load. |
| Bandwidth | Up to 500 MHz - Supports high-speed differential signaling, memory interleaving, and broadband data paths. |
| I/O Voltage Range | 0 V to 5.5 V - Allows seamless interfacing between mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 3.3 V core ↔ 5 V peripheral). |
| Cio(OFF) | 3.5 pF typ - Reduces capacitive loading on inactive buses, preserving signal integrity in dense routing environments. |
| Ioff Current | 1 µA max at VCC = 0 V - Prevents backflow current and enables safe partial-power-down operation during system sleep states. |
| BIASV Range | 0 V to 5 V - Configurable bias point aligns with receiver threshold to suppress live-insertion glitches in hot-plug systems. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CB3Q6800DBQR is housed in a 24-pin SSOP (DBQ) package measuring 7.9 mm × 4.5 mm × 1.2 mm (max height), RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A10 | Data input/output (A-side) | Bidirectional signal path; connects to B1–B10 when ON = L; high-Z when ON = H. |
| B1–B10 | Data input/output (B-side) | Bidirectional path; precharged to BIASV when ON = H to avoid threshold-crossing glitches. |
| ON | Active-low enable | Drives internal switch array; must be pulled up to VCC during power-up/down to ensure defined high-Z state. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for VCC, BIASV, and all I/O; decoupling capacitor required near pin 11. |
| VCC | Supply voltage | Power source for charge pump and control logic; operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V. |
| BIASV | Bias supply input | Reference voltage applied to B-port precharge network; set to match receiver input threshold (e.g., 1.2 V or 2.4 V). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precharged B-port outputs | Reduces live-insertion noise by holding B outputs at BIASV, preventing glitch-induced false triggering in hot-plug PCIe/PCI slots. |
| 5-V tolerant I/Os | Enables direct connection to legacy 5 V peripherals without external level translators, even when VCC = 2.5 V or 3.3 V. |
| Charge-pump enhanced ron | Maintains 4.5 Ω typical ON-resistance across full 0–5.5 V I/O swing, eliminating ron variation-induced timing skew. |
| Undershoot clamp diodes | Protects inputs from negative transients down to –1.8 V, improving robustness in noisy industrial or telecom backplane environments. |
| Partial-power-down support | Ioff leakage ≤1 µA at VCC = 0 V isolates powered-down sections, enabling selective subsystem shutdown in multi-rail embedded systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBT6800DBQR | No BIASV pin; lacks precharged output feature; higher ron (6 Ω typ); no Ioff support. | Not suitable for live-insertion or partial-power-down use cases; limited to static bus isolation. | Select only if precharge and power-down safety are unnecessary and cost is primary constraint. |
| SN74LVC1G3157DCKR | Single-channel SPDT switch; no BIASV; 5-V tolerant; ron = 5 Ω typ; no 10-bit parallel interface. | Requires 10 discrete devices to match channel count; increases board area and layout complexity. | Use only for low-channel-count prototyping where density and integration are secondary to part availability. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR?
The SN74CB3Q6800DBQR supports a maximum switching frequency of 20 MHz on its ON control input and delivers up to 500 MHz bandwidth on its data path. This performance is enabled by its charge-pump architecture and low 3.5 pF OFF-state capacitance, making SN74CB3Q6800DBQR suitable for high-speed bus isolation and memory interleaving applications where signal integrity is critical.
How does the BIASV pin function in the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR?
The BIASV pin on the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR supplies a user-defined bias voltage (0–5 V) that precharges the B-port outputs when the device is disabled (ON = high) or powered down (VCC = 0 V). This precharge prevents live-insertion glitches from crossing receiver input thresholds, a key requirement for SN74CB3Q6800DBQR deployment in PCI hot-plug and modular backplane systems.
Can the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR operate with a 2.5 V supply voltage?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR is fully specified for operation from 2.3 V to 3.6 V, including 2.5 V nominal supply. At VCC = 2.5 V, its typical ON-state resistance remains 4.8 Ω, and it maintains full 5-V tolerance on I/O pins-ensuring reliable interoperability with mixed-voltage systems without external level-shifting circuitry.
Does the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR support partial-power-down mode?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR includes Ioff circuitry that limits leakage current to ≤1 µA when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe partial-power-down operation. This feature allows SN74CB3Q6800DBQR to isolate powered-down subsystems while maintaining signal integrity on shared buses-a necessity in battery-powered and thermally constrained embedded designs.
What package type is used for the SN74CB3Q6800DBQR?
The SN74CB3Q6800DBQR uses a 24-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package), designated DBQ, with dimensions of 7.9 mm × 4.5 mm × 1.2 mm max height. It is supplied in tape-and-reel format (2500 units per reel), RoHS-compliant, with NiPdAu lead finish and JEDEC MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year reflow rating.
