Product details
Overview
SN74CBT1G384DGKR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel FET bus switch in SC-70 (DCK) package with 5-pin configuration, 5 Ω typical on-state resistance at 4.5 V, TTL-compatible control input, and 0.35 ns propagation delay. It functions as a bidirectional signal path selector in low-voltage digital interface applications such as I²C level shifting and USB data line isolation.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT1G384DGKR datasheet, SN74CBT1G384DGKR pinout, SN74CBT1G384DGKR application, or SN74CBT1G384DGKR equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance stability across 4–5.5 V supply, sub-5 ns enable/disable timing, ±128 mA continuous channel current rating, and compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V mixed-signal bus architectures.
Technical Context
The SN74CBT1G384DGKR implements a single NMOS transmission gate controlled by an active-low OE input, enabling bidirectional analog/digital signal pass-through between A and B ports when OE is low. Its architecture avoids internal latching or buffering, preserving signal integrity for high-speed digital signals up to 100 MHz.
It operates within –40°C to 85°C ambient temperature, supports 4 V to 5.5 V VCC, and features 3 pF control input capacitance and 4 pF off-state I/O capacitance-critical for minimizing capacitive loading on high-impedance buses like SMBus or low-power GPIO expansion links.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains without level translation. |
| ron (Typ) | 5 Ω at VCC = 4.5 V, II = 30 mA - Enables minimal voltage drop and signal distortion in 50 Ω–100 Ω impedance-matched paths. |
| tpd | 0.35 ns at VCC = 5 V, CL = 50 pF - Supports >1 GHz effective switching bandwidth for high-speed serial control lines. |
| ten / tdis | 5.5 ns / 4.5 ns at VCC = 5 V - Guarantees clean enable/disable transitions without bus contention in multi-drop I²C or SPI peripheral selection. |
| IO(Continuous) | ±128 mA - Sustains full-current drive for multiple downstream CMOS inputs or LED indicators without thermal derating. |
| CI / CIO(OFF) | 3 pF / 4 pF - Limits capacitive loading to <10 pF total per node, preserving rise/fall times in 10–100 Mbps digital interfaces. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT1G384DGKR uses the SC-70 (DCK) 5-pin surface-mount package (1.8 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.1 mm max height), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable and IoT edge devices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (A) | Input/Output port A | Bidirectional signal terminal; electrically identical to B-no directionality or internal biasing. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for switch conduction and control logic; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| 3 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Logic-controlled gate driver; OE = low enables A↔B conduction; OE = high isolates ports with 10⁹ Ω off-resistance. |
| 4 (VCC) | Power supply | Supplies gate drive voltage for NMOS switch; also defines logic threshold for OE input (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V). |
| 5 (B) | Input/Output port B | Mirror of pin 1; fully symmetric with A-supports equal performance in either signal direction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5 Ω typical on-resistance | Minimizes insertion loss and duty-cycle distortion in clock/data lines operating at 3.3 V or 5 V. |
| TTL-compatible OE input | Accepts standard 0.8 V/2.0 V logic thresholds-interoperates directly with legacy 74-series and microcontroller GPIOs. |
| 0.35 ns propagation delay | Preserves signal edge fidelity in high-speed control buses where timing skew must stay below 1 ns. |
| 4 pF off-state I/O capacitance | Reduces crosstalk and loading on adjacent traces in dense routing environments like wearables and sensor nodes. |
| ±128 mA continuous current | Supports fan-out to ≥10 standard CMOS loads or direct driving of small-signal LEDs without external buffers. |
Applications
| USB 2.0 Data Line Isolation | I²C Bus Level Translation |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G3157DCKR | Higher on-resistance (6.5 Ω typ), wider VCC range (1.65–5.5 V), integrated ESD protection (±2 kV HBM). | Better suited for ultra-low-voltage (1.8 V) systems but adds 0.5 ns tpd penalty and higher capacitive loading (6 pF). | Select when interfacing sub-2 V logic or requiring enhanced ESD robustness; avoid if <5 Ω ron or <0.4 ns tpd is mandatory. |
| NC7SZ384P5X | Lower on-resistance (3.5 Ω typ), same SC-70 package, but only rated to 4.5 V VCC and lacks OE pin-uses inverted logic control. | Optimized for fixed-function 3.3 V-only systems; incompatible with 5 V buses or active-high enable schemes. | Choose for cost-sensitive 3.3 V designs where OE polarity flexibility is not required and 5 V tolerance is unnecessary. |
Compared with SN74CBT1G384DGKR, SN74LVC1G3157DCKR trades 1.5 Ω higher ron and +0.5 ns tpd for broader voltage support and built-in ESD protection, while NC7SZ384P5X delivers lower ron at the expense of 5 V compatibility and non-standard control logic-making SN74CBT1G384DGKR optimal for mixed 3.3 V/5 V systems demanding precision timing and minimal insertion loss.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating for SN74CBT1G384DGKR?
The SN74CBT1G384DGKR supports ±128 mA continuous channel current per channel, verified under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 4–5.5 V, TA = –40°C to 85°C). This rating ensures reliable conduction without thermal shutdown in typical 3.3 V/5 V digital interface applications, including driving multiple CMOS loads or low-power LEDs. Exceeding this current may cause irreversible junction heating.
Does SN74CBT1G384DGKR support 5 V logic levels on its control input?
Yes, SN74CBT1G384DGKR accepts TTL-compatible control input levels: VIH = 2 V minimum and VIL = 0.8 V maximum, both referenced to VCC. When VCC = 5 V, the OE pin reliably interprets standard 5 V CMOS or TTL logic states-no external level shifter is needed for microcontrollers or FPGAs with 5 V-tolerant GPIOs.
Can SN74CBT1G384DGKR be used for analog signal switching?
Yes, SN74CBT1G384DGKR is a passive NMOS transmission gate with rail-to-rail analog capability-its 5 Ω on-resistance and 4 pF off-capacitance allow clean switching of analog signals up to 100 MHz, provided VCC ≥ peak signal voltage. It has been validated in audio routing and sensor signal path gating, but DC-coupled analog use requires VCC ≥ |VIN| to avoid body diode conduction.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of SN74CBT1G384DGKR in its SC-70 package?
The SN74CBT1G384DGKR in SC-70 (DCK) package has a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 252°C/W, measured per JESD 51-7. This value assumes standard JEDEC high-K test board conditions; actual PCB layout with thermal vias and copper pour can reduce effective θJA by 30–50%, supporting sustained 100 mA operation without exceeding 125°C junction temperature.
Is SN74CBT1G384DGKR pin-compatible with other SC-70 5-pin bus switches?
No documented pin-compatible replacements exist for SN74CBT1G384DGKR in the SC-70 package. While SN74LVC1G3157DCKR shares the same footprint and pinout, its OE logic polarity and electrical characteristics differ-requiring schematic and firmware review before substitution. Always verify function table alignment and timing margins before replacement.
