Product details
Overview
SN74CB3Q6800PW from Texas Instruments is a 10-bit FET bus switch with precharged B-port outputs, designed for high-bandwidth bidirectional signal routing in 2.5-V/3.3-V systems. It delivers rail-to-rail switching, 4.5 Ω typical ON-state resistance (ron), <0.225 ns propagation delay, and 5-V tolerant I/Os - enabling low-distortion PCI interface and hot-plug applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CB3Q6800PW datasheet, SN74CB3Q6800PW pinout, SN74CB3Q6800PW application, or SN74CB3Q6800PW equivalent, key selection criteria include precharge-enabled live-insertion noise suppression, partial-power-down (Ioff) support, 500 MHz bandwidth capability, and TSSOP-24 package compatibility with space-constrained board layouts.
Technical Context
The SN74CB3Q6800PW integrates a charge-pump circuit to elevate gate voltage of its pass transistors, ensuring flat, low ron across 0–5 V I/O signaling levels. Its single ON control input enables synchronous 10-bit bidirectional connection between A and B ports, with B-port precharging via dedicated BIASV terminal to minimize signal distortion during hot insertion.
It supports partial-power-down operation via Ioff protection, blocks backflow current when VCC = 0 V, and features undershoot clamp diodes on all data and control inputs. The device operates across 2.3 V to 3.6 V VCC and accepts 0–5.5 V signals on I/O pins regardless of power state - critical for mixed-voltage system interfacing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - ensures stable operation across 2.5-V and 3.3-V logic domains without level-shifting. |
| ron (Typ) | 4.5 Ω at VCC = 3.3 V - enables minimal voltage drop and near-zero propagation delay in high-speed data paths. |
| Bandwidth | Up to 500 MHz - supports broadband communications, memory interleaving, and differential signal gating. |
| I/O Voltage Range | 0 V to 5.5 V - allows interoperability with 5-V, 3.3-V, 2.5-V, and 1.8-V systems while powered or unpowered. |
| tpd (Max) | 0.225 ns - guarantees sub-nanosecond timing integrity for high-frequency bus isolation and signal routing. |
| Cio(OFF) (Typ) | 3.5 pF - reduces capacitive loading on active buses, preserving signal edge rate and minimizing crosstalk. |
| Ioff (Max) | 1 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging current flow during partial-power-down or hot-plug events. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-24 (PW) package: 7.9 mm × 4.5 mm × 1.2 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, exposed pad not present, RoHS-compliant NIPDAU finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A10 | Data input/output (A-side) | Bidirectional signal path connected to B1–B10 when ON = L; high-impedance when ON = H. |
| B1–B10 | Data input/output (B-side) | Bidirectional signal path; internally precharged to BIASV when switch is OFF to suppress live-insertion glitches. |
| ON | Active-low enable input | Drives internal switch array; must be pulled up to VCC during power-up/down to ensure defined high-Z state. |
| BIASV | Bias supply terminal | Provides precharge voltage (0–5 V) to B-port outputs; sets threshold for glitch suppression during hot-plug events. |
| VCC | Power supply | Supplies core logic and charge pump; range 2.3–3.6 V defines operational voltage window and ron flatness. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for VCC, BIASV, and all I/O; required for proper clamp diode and Ioff functionality. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precharged B-port outputs | Reduces live-insertion noise by biasing B outputs to receiver input threshold, preventing false triggering during card mating. |
| 5-V tolerant I/Os | Enables seamless interfacing between legacy 5-V peripherals and modern 2.5/3.3-V buses without external level shifters. |
| Charge-pump enhanced ron | Maintains 4.5 Ω typical ON-resistance across full 0–5 V signal swing, ensuring consistent timing and low insertion loss. |
| Partial-power-down support (Ioff) | Blocks >99.9% of backflow current when VCC = 0 V, protecting powered-down sections during system-level power sequencing. |
| Rail-to-rail signal switching | Supports full-swing analog and digital signals from GND to 5.5 V, making it suitable for both digital bus isolation and low-distortion analog gating. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74CB3Q6800PW?
The SN74CB3Q6800PW supports a maximum switching frequency of 20 MHz on its ON control input under specified load conditions (RL ≥ 1 MΩ, CL = 0). Its high-bandwidth data path handles signals up to 500 MHz, making it suitable for fast digital and analog signal routing where timing integrity is critical. This performance is enabled by its low 4.5 Ω typical ON-state resistance and minimal 3.5 pF OFF-state capacitance.
How does the BIASV pin function in the SN74CB3Q6800PW?
The BIASV pin on the SN74CB3Q6800PW supplies a bias voltage (0–5 V) used to precharge the B-port outputs to a defined DC level when the switch is disabled (ON = H) or powered down. This precharge minimizes signal distortion and eliminates live-insertion glitches by ensuring B outputs remain outside the input threshold region of downstream receivers during card mating. It is not a control input but a dedicated supply terminal.
Can the SN74CB3Q6800PW operate with a 2.5-V supply?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q6800PW is fully specified for 2.5-V operation within its recommended VCC range of 2.3 V to 3.6 V. At 2.5 V, it maintains rail-to-rail switching, 4.8 Ω typical ON-state resistance, and full 5-V I/O tolerance - enabling interoperability with mixed-voltage systems without level translation. Its charge-pump architecture ensures consistent ron performance across this entire voltage range.
Does the SN74CB3Q6800PW support partial-power-down mode?
Yes, the SN74CB3Q6800PW includes Ioff circuitry that actively disables current paths when VCC = 0 V, limiting backflow current to ≤1 µA. This feature enables safe partial-power-down operation in modular systems, such as hot-pluggable line cards, where some sections remain powered while others are de-energized - preventing damage and ensuring system-level power sequencing integrity.
What package type is used for the SN74CB3Q6800PW?
The SN74CB3Q6800PW uses a TSSOP-24 (PW) package: 7.9 mm × 4.5 mm × 1.2 mm body size, 0.65 mm lead pitch, with 24 leads and NIPDAU lead finish. It is rated MSL Level-1 (unlimited floor life), RoHS-compliant, and supplied in tubes of 60 units. This compact, surface-mount package supports high-density PCB layouts while maintaining thermal and electrical performance for high-speed switching.
