Product details
Overview
SN74CB3T3245DGVR from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit FET bus switch with bidirectional data flow, 5V-tolerant I/Os, and VCC-referenced level shifting for mixed-mode signal translation (e.g., 5V→3.3V or 5V/3.3V→2.5V). It features 5Ω typical ON-state resistance, 5pF OFF-state I/O capacitance, and operates from 2.3V to 3.6V VCC - enabling use in USB interface isolation and memory interleaving circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CB3T3245DGVR datasheet, SN74CB3T3245DGVR pinout, SN74CB3T3245DGVR application, or SN74CB3T3245DGVR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin TVSOP package, near-zero propagation delay (<0.25 ns at 3.3V), Ioff partial-power-down support, 5V-tolerant operation during power-up/down, and compatibility with TTL and CMOS control inputs.
Technical Context
The SN74CB3T3245DGVR implements eight independent FET-based bilateral switches controlled by a single active-low OE input, using standard '245 pinout. Its output voltage translation tracks VCC, enabling deterministic down-shifting without external biasing.
Each switch supports bidirectional conduction with ron ≈ 5Ω (typ) and Cio(OFF) = 5pF (typ), minimizing RC delay and capacitive loading. The device guarantees 5V tolerance on all I/Os regardless of VCC state (powered up or powered down), and includes undershoot clamp diodes on all data and control inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3V to 3.6V - enables operation across 2.5V and 3.3V logic domains while maintaining 5V I/O tolerance |
| ON-State Resistance (ron) | 5Ω typical at VCC = 2.5V - ensures minimal voltage drop and signal distortion under 24mA load |
| I/O Capacitance (Cio(OFF)) | 5pF typical - reduces capacitive loading on buses, preserving signal integrity in high-speed interfaces |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 0.25ns max at 3.3V - delivers near-zero latency for timing-critical bidirectional data paths |
| Supply Current (ICC) | 40μA maximum - supports ultra-low-power portable and battery-operated systems |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±2000V - meets Class II human-body model requirements for robust handling in manufacturing |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded applications with thermal cycling |
Pinout & Package
SN74CB3T3245DGVR uses a 20-pin Thin Very Small Outline Package (TVSOP, DGV), measuring 5.00mm × 6.4mm with 0.5mm lead pitch. This thermally enhanced, surface-mount package supports automated assembly and provides low RθJA (123.7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NC | No internal connection - must be left unconnected; no routing or pull-up required |
| 2–9 | A1–A8 | Switch input terminals - bidirectional A-side ports for 8-bit bus connection |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - primary return path for VCC and signal currents |
| 11–18 | B8–B1 | Switch output terminals - bidirectional B-side ports, electrically mirrored to A-side |
| 19 | OE | Active-low output enable - controls all eight switches simultaneously; high = high-Z isolation |
| 20 | VCC | Power supply - sets translation reference voltage and powers internal FET gates |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode level shifting | Supports 5V→3.3V and 5V/3.3V→2.5V translation with VCC tracking - eliminates need for external level-shifters in multi-voltage systems |
| 5V-tolerant I/Os | Valid with device powered up or fully powered down - enables hot-swap capability and safe interconnection between legacy 5V and modern low-voltage subsystems |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Prevents backflow current when VCC = 0V - protects upstream drivers and maintains system-level isolation during power sequencing |
| Standard '245 pinout | Pin-compatible with industry-standard 74-series bus transceivers - simplifies PCB layout reuse and design migration |
| Undershoot clamp diodes | Integrated on all data and control inputs - suppresses negative transients below –1.2V, improving ESD robustness and signal reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBT3245CPW | Higher ron (7Ω typ), TSSOP-20 package, no Ioff support, 3.3V-only VCC range (3.0–3.6V) | Lacks 5V-tolerance during power-down and mixed-voltage flexibility - limited to fixed 3.3V systems | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs need for partial-power-down safety and 2.5V domain support |
| SN74LVC245APW | CMOS-based transceiver (not FET switch), higher propagation delay (>3ns), no VCC-tracking level shift | Requires external level-shifting circuitry for 5V↔3.3V interfacing; not suitable for true bidirectional zero-delay paths | Choose only when direction control (DIR pin) is preferred over OE-only control and latency is non-critical |
Compared with SN74CB3T3245DGVR, SN74CBT3245CPW offers lower cost but sacrifices Ioff protection and 2.5V operation, while SN74LVC245APW provides direction control at the expense of latency and native level-shifting capability - making SN74CB3T3245DGVR uniquely suited for low-latency, mixed-voltage, power-aware bus isolation.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable I/O voltage for SN74CB3T3245DGVR when VCC = 0V?
SN74CB3T3245DGVR supports 0V to 5.5V on all I/O pins (A1–A8, B1–B8) regardless of VCC state, including full power-down (VCC = 0V). This 5V tolerance is guaranteed per absolute maximum ratings and enables safe hot-plug operation and interoperability with legacy 5V subsystems without risk of latch-up or damage.
Does SN74CB3T3245DGVR require external pull-up resistors on the OE pin?
Yes - to ensure a defined high-impedance state during power-up or power-down, OE must be tied to VCC through an external pull-up resistor. TI specifies the minimum resistor value based on the driver's current-sinking capability; typical values range from 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ depending on system drive strength and noise margin requirements.
Can SN74CB3T3245DGVR translate 1.8V signals to 3.3V?
No - SN74CB3T3245DGVR performs down-translation only: output voltage tracks VCC, so it can shift 5V or 3.3V inputs down to 3.3V or 2.5V outputs, but cannot boost 1.8V to 3.3V. For up-translation, a dedicated level shifter such as TXB0108 is required.
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of SN74CB3T3245DGVR in its TVSOP package?
SN74CB3T3245DGVR in the DGV (TVSOP-20) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 123.7°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions. This value assumes a 1-inch² copper pad on a 2-layer board and informs thermal design for continuous 128mA-per-channel operation at 85°C ambient.
How does the Ioff feature protect systems during partial power-down?
The Ioff feature disables current flow through SN74CB3T3245DGVR when VCC = 0V, preventing damaging back-current from live 5V I/Os into a powered-down subsystem. Measured at ≤10μA off-state leakage, this ensures isolation integrity and complies with JESD78 latch-up immunity standards for robust system-level power sequencing.
