Product details
Overview
SN74CBT3384ADBQR from Texas Instruments is a 10-bit FET bus switch IC organized as two independent 5-bit switches with separate OE controls, featuring 5 Ω on-state resistance, TTL-compatible inputs, and 0.25 ns propagation delay at 5 V - used for high-speed bidirectional data routing in memory expansion and peripheral interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT3384ADBQR datasheet, SN74CBT3384ADBQR pinout, SN74CBT3384ADBQR application, or SN74CBT3384ADBQR equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance matching, dual-OE control flexibility, 5-V supply operation, and SSOP-24 package compatibility with legacy board layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent 5-bit FET-based analog switches with complementary control logic: each OE input enables its respective 5-bit path (A↔B) when low, placing the switch in low-impedance conduction mode; high OE forces high-impedance isolation. The architecture supports bidirectional signal flow without direction pins.
It operates strictly within 4 V to 5.5 V supply range, accepts TTL-level control inputs (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V), and maintains sub-7 Ω on-resistance across temperature and voltage - enabling minimal signal distortion in 3.3 V/5 V mixed-signal interconnects.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-state resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typical at VCC = 4.5 V, 30 mA - ensures <50 mV voltage drop under standard bus loading, preserving signal integrity. |
| Propagation delay (tpd) | 0.25 ns max at VCC = 5 V, CL = 50 pF - enables >1 GHz effective switching in high-speed address/data multiplexing. |
| Supply voltage range | 4 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5-V TTL and mixed 3.3/5-V system rails without level shifters. |
| Input voltage thresholds | VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V - guarantees reliable recognition of legacy TTL logic levels across temperature. |
| Channel current rating | 128 mA continuous - supports sustained operation driving 50-Ω transmission lines or multiple CMOS loads. |
| Off-state capacitance (Cio) | 4.5 pF max - minimizes capacitive loading and crosstalk during isolation, critical for high-frequency bus sharing. |
| Operating temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems including automation and communications equipment. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT3384ADBQR is housed in a 24-pin SSOP (DBQ) package, 0.65 mm pitch, 7.8 mm × 4.4 mm body size, 1.2 mm max height, with gull-wing leads and pin 1 index area marked per JEDEC MO-153.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE | Output-enable for first 5-bit switch (1A1–1A5 ↔ 1B1–1B5) | Active-low control: drives switch into low-Z conduction when pulled ≤0.8 V; high-Z isolation above 2 V. |
| 2OE | Output-enable for second 5-bit switch (2A1–2A5 ↔ 2B1–2B5) | Independent active-low enable allows asynchronous gating of two data paths without shared timing constraints. |
| 1A1–1A5, 2A1–2A5 | Port A terminals (first and second 5-bit banks) | Bidirectional I/O nodes - no inherent directionality; signal flows A→B or B→A depending on external drive. |
| 1B1–1B5, 2B1–2B5 | Port B terminals (first and second 5-bit banks) | Electrically identical to Port A; paired with respective A pins to form ten independent switch channels. |
| VCC | Positive supply | Must be decoupled locally; powers internal FET gates and level translators - noise sensitivity requires 0.1 µF ceramic near pin 13. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for all switch channels and control logic - must connect to low-impedance system ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low on-state resistance | 5 Ω typical ensures <50 mV IR drop at 10 mA, preserving TTL logic margins in hot-swap and backplane applications. |
| Dual independent OE controls | Enables time-multiplexed or priority-based bus arbitration between two subsystems without external logic. |
| TTL-compatible control inputs | Eliminates need for level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with legacy microcontrollers or FPGA I/O banks. |
| High-speed propagation | 0.25 ns tpd supports clean edge transmission up to 2 GHz Nyquist frequency, suitable for DDR clock forwarding. |
| Break-before-make isolation | No overlap between enable transitions prevents momentary short-circuits during OE state changes. |
Applications
| Memory Expansion Interface | Peripheral Multiplexing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD3384ADBQR | Includes bus-hold circuitry on all I/O pins and supports 3.3-V/5-V mixed-mode operation with higher ICC (10 µA vs. 3 µA). | Better suited for floating-bus environments (e.g., unpopulated slots), but adds 1.5 pF input capacitance and reduces max speed by ~15%. | Select SN74CBTD3384ADBQR only if bus-hold functionality is required; otherwise SN74CBT3384ADBQR offers lower capacitance and faster switching. |
| 74LVC1G3157DP,125 | Single-pole double-throw (SPDT) analog switch in 6-pin XSON package; Ron = 6 Ω, VCC = 1.65–5.5 V, but only 1 channel per unit. | Requires ten units to match 10-bit capability; lacks dual-OE control and introduces layout complexity and timing skew. | Use only for ultra-low-pin-count prototypes where density is secondary to rapid evaluation - not recommended for production 10-bit routing. |
Compared with SN74CBTD3384ADBQR and 74LVC1G3157DP,125, the SN74CBT3384ADBQR delivers optimal balance of channel count, speed, and simplicity for fixed-function 10-bit bus switching - offering lowest per-channel capacitance (4.5 pF), fastest propagation (0.25 ns), and native dual-OE support without added logic overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for SN74CBT3384ADBQR?
The SN74CBT3384ADBQR has an absolute maximum supply voltage of 7 V, but its recommended operating range is strictly 4 V to 5.5 V per the datasheet. Operating outside this window risks exceeding on-resistance specifications and may cause premature wear of internal FETs. For reliable 5-V system integration, maintain VCC between 4.5 V and 5.5 V with ±2% regulation.
Does SN74CBT3384ADBQR support bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, the SN74CBT3384ADBQR supports fully bidirectional signal flow on all ten channels - there is no designated input or output direction. When enabled (OE low), signals pass equally well from Port A to Port B or Port B to Port A, making it ideal for data/address bus sharing in microcontroller and FPGA designs.
Can SN74CBT3384ADBQR be used with 3.3-V logic levels?
The SN74CBT3384ADBQR is specified for 4–5.5 V operation and TTL-compatible control inputs (VIH ≥ 2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V), so it accepts 3.3-V logic highs reliably. However, its output swing follows VCC, meaning 3.3-V signals must be driven into a 5-V powered SN74CBT3384ADBQR only if the device driving it can tolerate 5-V I/O - otherwise level-shifting is required on the A/B ports.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the DBQ package used by SN74CBT3384ADBQR?
The SSOP-24 (DBQ) package of the SN74CBT3384ADBQR has a published junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 61°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions. This value assumes a 1-inch² copper pad with two vias; actual board-level θJA will vary based on PCB layout, copper area, and airflow - design should limit power dissipation to ≤150 mW to stay within safe junction temperature limits.
Is SN74CBT3384ADBQR pin-compatible with other variants like SN74CBT3384ADBR?
Yes, SN74CBT3384ADBQR is pin-compatible with SN74CBT3384ADBR (SSOP-24, DB), SN74CBT3384ADWR (SOIC-24, DW), and SN74CBT3384APWR (TSSOP-24, PW) - all share identical 24-pin functional mapping and electrical behavior. Mechanical differences exist in package dimensions and thermal performance, but no PCB redesign is needed when substituting within the same footprint family.
