Product details
Overview
SN74CBT16209ADLR from Texas Instruments is an 18-bit high-speed TTL-compatible bus switch with 5-Ω on-state resistance, operating from 4 V to 5.5 V supply, supporting bidirectional signal routing between A/B ports under S0–S2 control for data exchange in memory and I/O expansion systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT16209ADLR datasheet, SN74CBT16209ADLR pinout, SN74CBT16209ADLR application, or SN74CBT16209ADLR equivalent, this device enables low-latency (0.25 ns typical propagation delay), low-capacitance (7.5 pF off-state) switching in high-density digital backplanes, FPGA I/O bridging, and legacy bus interface consolidation.
Technical Context
The SN74CBT16209ADLR implements a 9-bit dual-port bus exchanger architecture, where each of nine A1/A2–B1/B2 channel pairs routes signals based on three select inputs (S0, S1, S2), enabling eight distinct connection modes including disconnect, direct A→B mapping, and crossbar exchange (A1↔B2, A2↔B1). Its TTL-compatible control inputs accept 0.8 V low / 2 V high thresholds independent of VCC.
Each switch exhibits 4 Ω to 8 Ω on-resistance across 4 V–5.5 V operation, with 128 mA continuous channel current rating and 50 pF load-driven timing performance validated at 4 V and 5 V. The device operates over −40°C to +85°C and features 48-pin SSOP (DL) packaging with 0.5 mm pitch and 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm footprint.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage (VCC) | 4 V to 5.5 V - supports standard 5 V TTL and mixed-voltage system interfacing without level shifters. |
| On-state resistance (ron) | 4 Ω to 8 Ω - ensures minimal voltage drop (<320 mV at 64 mA) and preserves signal integrity in high-current digital paths. |
| Propagation delay (tpd) | 0.25 ns (typ @ 5 V) - enables sub-nanosecond timing closure in high-speed parallel bus applications. |
| Off-state capacitance (Cio) | 7.5 pF - limits loading on inactive channels, critical for maintaining bandwidth in multi-drop or stubbed bus topologies. |
| Control input thresholds | VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2 V - guarantees reliable switching with standard TTL logic drivers without pull-up/pull-down biasing. |
| Operating temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control, test equipment, and communications infrastructure. |
| Continuous channel current | 128 mA - supports robust drive capability for driving multiple CMOS loads or short PCB traces. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT16209ADLR uses a 48-pin SSOP (DL) package with 0.5 mm pitch, 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm body size, and 1.2 mm max height per JEDEC MO-153. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner with quadrants aligned per tape-and-reel orientation Q1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| S0, S1, S2 | Bus configuration select inputs | Determine routing mode (disconnect, A→B, B→A, or cross-exchange) for all 9 channel pairs simultaneously. |
| A1–A2, B1–B2 (×9) | Signal channel terminals | Bidirectional I/O ports; each A1/A2 pair connects to corresponding B1/B2 pair when enabled per function table. |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 4–5.5 V rail powers all switches and control logic; no separate I/O or analog supply required. |
| GND (×4) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and ensure stable switching thresholds across full 18-bit width. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5-Ω switch resistance | Enables <320 mV IR drop at 64 mA, preserving logic high/low margins in fan-out-heavy bus nodes. |
| TTL-compatible control inputs | Eliminates need for external level translators when driven by legacy 74-series or microcontroller GPIOs. |
| 9-bit bus exchanger mode | Permits simultaneous A1↔B1 + A2↔B2 reconfiguration for memory-mapped I/O swapping without software overhead. |
| Low off-state capacitance | 7.5 pF isolation minimizes crosstalk and signal degradation on adjacent traces in dense PCB layouts. |
| Widebus™ family compatibility | Shares layout, thermal, and timing design practices with TI's 16-/32-bit Widebus switch portfolio for scalable system integration. |
Applications
| Memory Expansion Interface | FPGA I/O Bridging |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Expanding address/data bus width between microcontroller and external SRAM/Flash using shared bus segments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional bus switch enabling time-multiplexed access to two memory banks without contention. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete transceivers or glue logic; 0.25 ns tpd ensures no timing penalty in 50+ MHz bus cycles. |
Use Scenario: Adapting mismatched I/O standards between FPGA bank and legacy peripheral (e.g., ISA, PCI-X edge connector). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-agnostic signal path selector allowing FPGA to dynamically route signals to alternate peripherals. Use Value: Supports hot-swap reconfiguration via S0–S2 control; 128 mA drive handles 5 V-tolerant FPGA I/O pads directly. |
| Industrial Backplane Interconnect | Test Equipment Signal Routing |
Use Scenario: Isolating or cross-connecting data lanes across modular PLC backplane slots during diagnostics or firmware update. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fault-tolerant bus exchanger providing configurable A↔B signal mapping with hardware-selectable topology. Use Value: 48-pin SSOP fits standard 0.1" grid spacing; −40°C to +85°C rating ensures reliability in uncontrolled cabinet environments. |
Use Scenario: Automated test system requiring dynamic signal path selection between DUT, instruments, and reference sources. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-latency, low-crosstalk switch matrix element controlled by test controller GPIOs. Use Value: 7.5 pF off-capacitance prevents measurement drift; 4 Ω on-resistance maintains signal fidelity up to 200 MHz. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD16210DGGR | 3.3 V–5.5 V supply range; includes output-enable (OE) pin not present on SN74CBT16209ADLR. | Supports 3.3 V system integration and synchronous enable/disable sequencing; lacks S0–S2 exchanger logic. | Select when 3.3 V compatibility or global OE control is required; not suitable for crossbar exchange functionality. |
| SN74CBT16210DLR | Same 48-pin SSOP package and 5 V operation, but provides 20-bit fixed-direction switching (no S0–S2 select logic). | Used for static bus extension only; no data exchange or multiplexing capability-pure 1:1 port forwarding. | Choose for simple bus buffering where dynamic reconfiguration is unnecessary and pin count matches. |
Compared with SN74CBT16209ADLR, SN74CBTD16210DGGR adds 3.3 V support and OE control but removes exchanger functionality, while SN74CBT16210DLR offers identical packaging and voltage range but eliminates programmable routing-making SN74CBT16209ADLR uniquely suited for dynamic bus topology management.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74CBT16209ADLR?
The SN74CBT16209ADLR does not specify a maximum clock frequency, as it is a passive analog switch-not a clocked device. Its 0.25 ns typical propagation delay and 7.5 pF off-capacitance support clean signal transmission up to 200+ MHz in well-terminated 50 Ω environments, verified under CL = 50 pF load conditions per the official datasheet.
Does the SN74CBT16209ADLR require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its S0, S1, S2 control inputs?
No, the SN74CBT16209ADLR does not require external biasing on S0, S1, or S2. Its TTL-compatible inputs have defined VIH = 2 V and VIL = 0.8 V thresholds, and the datasheet explicitly states that unused control inputs must be held at VCC or GND-achievable directly via MCU GPIO or hardwired connections without resistors.
Can the SN74CBT16209ADLR operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No, the SN74CBT16209ADLR is not rated for 3.3 V operation. Its recommended VCC range is strictly 4 V to 5.5 V, and absolute maximum ratings cap VCC at 7 V. For 3.3 V systems, consider the pin-compatible SN74CBTD16210DGGR, which supports 3.3 V–5.5 V and includes OE control.
How many independent signal paths does the SN74CBT16209ADLR provide?
The SN74CBT16209ADLR provides 18 independent bidirectional signal paths, organized as nine A1/A2–B1/B2 channel pairs. Each pair can be individually routed or disconnected based on the S0–S2 select code, enabling either 18-bit bus switching or 9-bit data exchange functionality.
Is the SN74CBT16209ADLR RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the SN74CBT16209ADLR is RoHS compliant and features NiPdAu (NIPDAU) lead finish per TI's Package Option Addendum. It carries MSL Level-1 rating (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH) and is qualified for lead-free reflow up to 260°C peak temperature.
