Product details
Overview
SN74CBT3345DGVR from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit high-speed bus switch with TTL-compatible control inputs, 5-Ω on-state resistance, and dual active-low/high output-enable logic enabling bidirectional port connection or high-impedance isolation in 5-V systems. It implements standard '245-type pinout for drop-in replacement in legacy bus-switching applications such as memory expansion and data path routing.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT3345DGVR datasheet, SN74CBT3345DGVR pinout, SN74CBT3345DGVR application, or SN74CBT3345DGVR equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance matching, propagation delay under 0.25 ns, dual OE control timing (enable/disable <9.1 ns), thermal performance in TVSOP (θJA = 92°C), and compatibility with 4.5–5.5-V supply rails.
Technical Context
The SN74CBT3345DGVR uses NMOS pass-gate architecture to achieve low on-resistance (5–7 Ω typical) and minimal propagation delay (0.25 ns). Its dual OE inputs-OE (active-low) and OE (active-high)-allow flexible enable logic: switch conducts when OE = L OR OE = H, and disconnects only when OE = H AND OE = L.
Designed for 5-V operation, it supports ±1 µA input leakage, 6 pF off-state I/O capacitance, and 128 mA continuous channel current. Absolute maximum ratings include −0.5 V to 7 V on VCC and I/O pins, ensuring robustness against transient overvoltage during hot-swap or level-shifting use cases.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across industrial-grade 5-V rail tolerances. |
| ron | 5 Ω typical - Enables minimal voltage drop (<150 mV at 30 mA) and preserves signal integrity in high-speed digital paths. |
| tpd | 0.25 ns - Delivers near-zero propagation delay critical for synchronous bus timing budgets. |
| ten/tdis | 1 ns to 9.1 ns - Supports fast dynamic bus partitioning without metastability in multi-master systems. |
| Cio(OFF) | 6 pF - Limits capacitive loading on isolated buses, reducing crosstalk and power supply noise coupling. |
| IO Continuous | 128 mA - Sustains full drive capability across all 8 channels simultaneously without thermal derating. |
| θJA | 92°C/W - Specifies thermal limit for TVSOP-20 package; requires PCB copper area ≥150 mm² for full-rated operation. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT3345DGVR is housed in a 20-pin Thin Very Small Outline Package (TVSOP-DGV), 4.4 mm × 6.6 mm footprint, 1.2 mm max height, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, with 0.5-mm lead pitch and exposed pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Drives switch ON when low; must be tied to GND or controlled by open-drain logic. |
| 2–9 (A1–A8) | Port A input/output terminals | Bidirectional signal path; electrically identical to B-side with no internal direction control. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all switching currents and control logic; requires low-inductance connection. |
| 11 (VCC) | Power supply | 5-V supply input; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 3 mm of pin. |
| 12–19 (B1–B8) | Port B input/output terminals | Electrically mirrored to A-side; supports point-to-point or bus-tap topologies. |
| 20 (OE) | Active-high output enable | Drives switch ON when high; complements OE for logic-level flexibility in mixed-control systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Standard '245 pinout | Enables direct mechanical and layout replacement for SN74LS245, SN74ALS245, and other 20-pin bus transceivers without PCB redesign. |
| Dual OE control logic | Supports both active-low and active-high enable signals, eliminating need for external inverters in mixed-logic systems. |
| 5-Ω on-state resistance | Reduces insertion loss and maintains signal rise/fall times below 100 ps in 50-Ω transmission environments. |
| TTL-compatible inputs | Accepts VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, interoperating directly with 5-V CMOS, TTL, and LVTTL logic families. |
| High-speed switching | Sub-nanosecond enable/disable and propagation delays preserve setup/hold margins in >100-MHz data buses. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus-switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD3345DGVR | Includes power-down control (1.8-V compatible OE inputs) and higher VCC tolerance (up to 5.5 V), but ron increases to 7 Ω typical. | Required where mixed-voltage (1.8/3.3/5 V) control logic coexists with 5-V data paths. | Select SN74CBTD3345DGVR only if 1.8-V OE interface is mandatory; otherwise SN74CBT3345DGVR offers lower ron and simpler biasing. |
| SN74LVC245APW | Octal bus transceiver (not switch); includes direction control (DIR), 3-state outputs, and 3.3-V VCC operation only. | Suitable for unidirectional or direction-controlled data flow, not passive bidirectional switching. | Choose SN74LVC245APW only when explicit direction management is needed; SN74CBT3345DGVR is superior for transparent, bidirectional, zero-delay bus coupling. |
Compared with SN74CBTD3345DGVR, the SN74CBT3345DGVR delivers lower on-resistance and simpler 5-V-only control, while SN74LVC245APW introduces directionality and voltage translation at the cost of added latency and reduced transparency-making SN74CBT3345DGVR optimal for legacy 5-V bus extension where minimal delay and passive behavior are essential.

FAQ
What is the function of the dual OE inputs on the SN74CBT3345DGVR?
The SN74CBT3345DGVR features two independent output-enable inputs: OE (active-low) and OE (active-high). The switch conducts (A↔B connected) when either OE is low OR OE is high; it enters high-impedance isolation only when OE is high AND OE is low. This dual-input structure allows seamless integration with both inverting and non-inverting control logic without external gates, preserving timing integrity in complex bus arbitration schemes.
Can the SN74CBT3345DGVR operate at 3.3 V?
No, the SN74CBT3345DGVR is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per its recommended conditions. Its TTL-compatible inputs require VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, but internal pass-gate threshold and ron performance are optimized for 5-V VCC. Operating below 4.5 V risks increased on-resistance, timing violations, and potential functional failure. For 3.3-V systems, consider SN74CBTD3345DGVR or SN74LVC245APW instead.
Is the SN74CBT3345DGVR pin-compatible with the SN74LS245?
Yes, the SN74CBT3345DGVR uses the standard '245-type pinout: pins 1 (OE), 2–9 (A1–A8), 10 (GND), 11 (VCC), 12–19 (B1–B8), and 20 (OE) match the physical layout of SN74LS245 in SOIC-20. However, SN74CBT3345DGVR replaces tristate transceiver functionality with passive bidirectional switching-so while mechanical and pin-for-pin compatible, system-level logic (e.g., DIR control) must be re-evaluated.
What is the maximum signal frequency supported by the SN74CBT3345DGVR?
The SN74CBT3345DGVR does not specify a maximum clock or data rate directly, but its 0.25 ns propagation delay and 6 pF off-state I/O capacitance support clean signal transmission up to ≥100 MHz in properly terminated 50-Ω environments. Real-world bandwidth is limited by PCB trace impedance, load capacitance, and driver strength-not the switch itself-making it suitable for high-speed parallel buses including legacy PCI, ISA, and memory address/data paths.
Does the SN74CBT3345DGVR require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its OE pins?
Yes-per TI's SCBA004 application report, all unused control inputs on the SN74CBT3345DGVR must be held at a defined logic level. OE should be pulled to GND (for always-on operation) or driven actively; OE should be pulled to VCC (for active-high enable) or driven. Floating OE/OE pins risk undefined switching states, increased ICC, and potential bus contention due to input threshold instability in TTL-compatible receivers.
