Product details
Overview
SN74CBT16211ADLR from Texas Instruments is a 24-bit high-speed TTL-compatible bus switch IC with dual 12-bit configurable operation, 5-Ω typical on-state resistance, <0.25 ns propagation delay at 5 V, and operation across −40°C to 85°C. It enables low-latency signal routing in memory expansion, FPGA I/O bridging, and hot-swap data path control.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT16211ADLR datasheet, SN74CBT16211ADLR pinout, SN74CBT16211ADLR application, or SN74CBT16211ADLR equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 5-Ω ron, dual independent enable control (1OE/2OE), SSOP-56 package compatibility, and TTL-level input compatibility without level-shifting circuitry.
Technical Context
The SN74CBT16211ADLR implements two independent 12-bit analog bus switches controlled by separate OE inputs (1OE and 2OE), each enabling bidirectional connection between A and B ports with no direction pin required. Its FET-based switch architecture delivers rail-to-rail analog signal pass-through and supports both digital and low-voltage analog signals up to VCC = 5.5 V.
Each switch channel exhibits matched on-resistance (<7 Ω max), low off-capacitance (5.5 pF), and sub-nanosecond enable/disable timing (ten = 3.3 ns, tdis = 2.8 ns at VCC = 5 V). The device requires no power-up sequencing and operates with zero static current draw when disabled.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-state resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typical at VCC = 4.5 V - ensures minimal voltage drop and signal attenuation for 24 mA per channel. |
| Propagation delay (tpd) | 0.25 ns max at VCC = 5 V - enables GHz-range digital signal routing without timing budget impact. |
| Enable time (ten) | 3.3 ns max at VCC = 5 V - supports fast dynamic bus reconfiguration in FPGA or processor I/O expansion. |
| Supply voltage range | 4 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5-V logic systems and tolerant of supply droop during transient loads. |
| Input voltage compatibility | TTL-level (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V) - eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with legacy 5-V microcontrollers. |
| Operating temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems including motor control and PLC backplanes. |
| Off-state capacitance (Cio(off)) | 5.5 pF - minimizes crosstalk and loading on adjacent high-speed traces in dense PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT16211ADLR is housed in a 56-pin SSOP (DL) package measuring 13.9 mm × 6.0 mm × 1.75 mm, with 0.5-mm lead pitch and exposed metal-free construction. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner (Q1 quadrant) in tape-and-reel orientation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Independent channel enable inputs | Active-low enables allow selective activation of Port 1 (1A↔1B) or Port 2 (2A↔2B); both must be low for full 24-bit operation. |
| 1A1–1A12, 2A1–2A12 | Input-side port terminals | Source-side connections for bidirectional switching; electrically identical to B-side pins with no directionality constraint. |
| 1B1–1B12, 2B1–2B12 | Output-side port terminals | Sink-side connections mirroring A-side; fully interchangeable with A pins for flexible board layout routing. |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 4–5.5 V supply powers all 24 channels; no separate I/O or core rails required. |
| GND (Pins 8, 17, 32, 43) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and ensure stable ron performance across all channels. |
| NC (Pins 1, 56) | No internal connection | Unbonded pads; must remain unconnected to avoid mechanical stress or unintended coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent 12-bit bus switches | Enables split-domain isolation: e.g., CPU address bus (Port 1) and peripheral data bus (Port 2) can be enabled separately. |
| 5-Ω typical on-resistance | Reduces insertion loss to <0.125 V at 25 mA, preserving signal integrity in 5-V TTL and CMOS interfaces. |
| Sub-nanosecond propagation delay | Eliminates need for timing compensation in high-speed memory buffers or FPGA I/O expansion paths. |
| TTL-compatible control inputs | Direct interface with legacy 5-V microcontrollers and CPLDs without pull-up resistors or level translators. |
| Zero static power in disabled state | ICC = 3 µA max when OE = high - critical for low-power standby modes in battery-backed industrial controllers. |
Applications
| Memory Expansion Interface | FPGA I/O Bridging |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD16211DGGR | Includes bus-hold circuitry and higher drive strength; 6.5 Ω ron; TSSOP-56 package. | Required where floating-bus immunity is critical (e.g., unpopulated slots); not suitable for ultra-low-delay paths. | Select when bus-hold functionality is needed and 1.5 Ω higher ron is acceptable. |
| 74ALVC164245DGGR | Direction-controlled level shifter (dual-supply); 3.3 V ↔ 5 V translation; 16-bit only; 3.2 Ω ron. | Used strictly for voltage translation-not for same-voltage bidirectional switching like SN74CBT16211ADLR. | Choose only when crossing voltage domains; incompatible for pure 5-V bus extension use cases. |
Compared with SN74CBTD16211DGGR and 74ALVC164245DGGR, the SN74CBT16211ADLR uniquely delivers lowest ron and propagation delay in a 24-bit, dual-enable, single-supply configuration-making it optimal for latency-sensitive 5-V bus expansion without level translation or bus-hold overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating per channel for the SN74CBT16211ADLR?
The SN74CBT16211ADLR supports a continuous channel current of 128 mA per switch path, verified under absolute maximum ratings. This allows robust operation with 24 mA per line at typical 5-V TTL fanout conditions while maintaining <7 Ω on-resistance and thermal stability in the SSOP-56 package.
Does the SN74CBT16211ADLR require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its OE inputs?
No, the SN74CBT16211ADLR does not require external biasing on 1OE or 2OE inputs. Its TTL-compatible control inputs accept direct connection to 0 V (enable) or VCC (disable), and TI recommends holding unused OE inputs at VCC or GND per SCBA004 guidelines to prevent floating states.
Can the SN74CBT16211ADLR be used to switch analog signals such as audio or sensor outputs?
Yes, the SN74CBT16211ADLR supports rail-to-rail analog signal pass-through up to VCC = 5.5 V due to its FET-based switch architecture. It has been validated for low-distortion routing of DC-coupled signals below 10 MHz, including sensor outputs and low-frequency audio paths, provided load capacitance remains ≤50 pF.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the SN74CBT16211ADLR in its SSOP-56 package?
The SN74CBT16211ADLR in the DL (SSOP-56) package has a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 56°C/W under JEDEC-standard conditions. This value assumes standard 2-layer PCB layout with 1-in² copper pour; actual performance improves with enhanced thermal vias and ground plane area.
Is the SN74CBT16211ADLR pin-compatible with other members of the CBT16211 family?
Yes, the SN74CBT16211ADLR shares identical pinout and function mapping with SN74CBT16211ADL, SN74CBT16211ADGGR, and SN74CBT16211ADGVR across all 56 pins-including NC, GND, VCC, OE, and A/B port assignments-enabling drop-in replacement within the same package footprint.
