Product details
Overview
SN74CBT3345DW from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit high-speed TTL-compatible bus switch IC in SOIC-20 package, featuring 5-Ω on-state resistance, 0.25 ns typical propagation delay, and dual active-low/high output-enable control (OE and OE). It enables bidirectional signal routing between A and B ports in digital interface isolation, level-shifting, and hot-swap applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT3345DW datasheet, SN74CBT3345DW pinout, SN74CBT3345DW application, or SN74CBT3345DW equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, functional truth table behavior, thermal resistance (θJA = 58°C/W), supply voltage range (4.5 V to 5.5 V), and real-world switching timing under 50 pF load.
Technical Context
The SN74CBT3345DW implements a single 8-bit FET-based analog switch bank with complementary enable logic: the switch conducts when OE is low OR OE is high, and disconnects only when OE is high AND OE is low. Its TTL-compatible inputs accept 0.8 V (VIL) and 2 V (VVIH) thresholds across −40°C to 85°C operation.
Each channel supports 128 mA continuous current and exhibits 6 pF off-state capacitance (Cio(OFF)) for minimal capacitive loading. The device operates at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V with 50 µA typical quiescent current (ICC) and 3.5 mA ∆ICC per active control input.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with standard 5-V TTL and CMOS logic systems without level translation. |
| On-State Resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typical - Enables low-loss signal pass-through with <100 mV voltage drop at 20 mA per channel. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 0.25 ns typical - Supports >1 GHz signal integrity in high-speed data paths with minimal timing skew. |
| Enable/Disable Time (ten/tdis) | 1 ns to 9.1 ns - Allows precise control of bus access windows in multiplexed memory or peripheral interfaces. |
| Off-State Capacitance (Cio(OFF)) | 6 pF - Limits crosstalk and signal degradation when adjacent channels are active or floating. |
| Input Clamp Current (IIK) | −50 mA - Protects against transient overvoltage events down to −0.5 V on I/O pins. |
| θJA | 58°C/W - Confirms thermal performance suitability for SOIC-20 PCB layouts without forced airflow. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT3345DW uses a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package measuring 12.8 mm × 7.5 mm × 2.65 mm max height, compliant with JEDEC MS-013, with gull-wing leads and NIPDAU lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Drives all eight switches ON when logic low; must be tied to GND or controlled by system logic. |
| 2–9 (A1–A8) | Port A input/output terminals | Bidirectional signal nodes connected to source-side buses (e.g., microcontroller data lines). |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry and I/O current; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| 11 (VCC) | Power supply | Supplies 4.5–5.5 V to internal switch FETs and control logic; bypass capacitor required near pin. |
| 12–19 (B1–B8) | Port B input/output terminals | Bidirectional signal nodes connected to destination-side buses (e.g., memory or peripheral data lines). |
| 20 (OE) | Active-high output enable | Drives all eight switches ON when logic high; complements OE for flexible enable polarity routing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Standard '245-type pinout | Enables drop-in replacement of legacy 74LS245/74ACT245 in existing PCB layouts without redesign. |
| Dual complementary enable inputs | Supports both active-low (OE) and active-high (OE) control schemes, simplifying interface to diverse host controllers. |
| 5-Ω low on-resistance | Minimizes insertion loss and maintains signal edge rate integrity up to 500 Mbps in parallel bus applications. |
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | Accepts standard 5-V logic levels directly-no external biasing or level shifters needed for legacy system integration. |
| High off-isolation (6 pF Cio(OFF)) | Reduces capacitive coupling between inactive channels, critical for noise-sensitive mixed-signal board designs. |
Applications
| Memory Bus Isolation | Hot-Swappable Peripheral Interface |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD3345DW | Includes 25-Ω series resistors on all A/B pins for improved ESD robustness (±8 kV HBM); otherwise identical pinout and function. | Better suited for industrial environments with frequent handling or unshielded connectors. | Select SN74CBTD3345DW if board-level ESD testing exceeds ±4 kV; retain SN74CBT3345DW for cost-sensitive consumer designs. |
| SN74LVC245APW | 3.3-V-only operation (1.65–3.6 V), 3-state outputs instead of analog switch topology, higher ron (~20 Ω), no dual-OE logic. | Applicable only in 3.3-V systems requiring traditional tri-state buffering-not for analog signal pass-through or level translation. | Choose SN74LVC245APW only for pure 3.3-V digital bus extension; avoid for 5-V or bidirectional analog switching use cases. |
Compared with SN74CBT3345DW, SN74CBTD3345DW adds integrated series termination for ESD hardening without altering timing or layout, while SN74LVC245APW serves a fundamentally different architecture (tri-state buffer vs. analog switch) and voltage domain-making it non-interchangeable in 5-V or low-ron applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating per channel for the SN74CBT3345DW?
The SN74CBT3345DW supports 128 mA continuous channel current per A/B pair, validated across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to 85°C). This rating ensures reliable conduction without thermal derating in standard SOIC-20 PCB layouts with adequate copper pour, and aligns with the absolute maximum ratings table in the official SCDS027I datasheet.
Does the SN74CBT3345DW require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its OE and OE pins?
No, the SN74CBT3345DW does not require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on OE or OE. Per TI's recommended operating conditions, all unused control inputs must be held at VCC or GND-achievable via direct connection to power or ground planes. This eliminates BOM overhead and avoids timing uncertainty introduced by resistor-capacitor time constants.
Can the SN74CBT3345DW operate with a 3.3-V supply voltage?
No, the SN74CBT3345DW is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation. Its TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V) and internal switch FET design require minimum 4.5 V to guarantee proper on-state resistance (<7 Ω) and propagation delay (<0.25 ns). Using 3.3 V violates recommended operating conditions and risks functional failure.
What is the meaning of the dual OE and OE inputs on the SN74CBT3345DW?
The SN74CBT3345DW features complementary enable logic: the switch bank connects A and B ports when OE is low OR OE is high, and disconnects only when OE is high AND OE is low. This dual-input structure allows flexible system-level control-e.g., OE driven by a processor GPIO (active-low) while OE is tied to VCC (always high) for simplified single-signal operation.
Is the SN74CBT3345DW pin-compatible with the SN74LS245?
Yes, the SN74CBT3345DW uses the standard '245-type pinout defined in the datasheet, matching SN74LS245, SN74ACT245, and SN74LVC245A pin-for-pin in SOIC-20. However, unlike those tri-state buffers, SN74CBT3345DW is an analog switch-so while footprint and pin numbering align, functionality (bidirectional low-ron pass-gate vs. directional 3-state driver) differs fundamentally.
