Product details
Overview
SN74CBT6800ADWR from Texas Instruments is a 10-bit FET bus switch with precharged B-port outputs, designed for high-speed TTL-compatible bidirectional data routing in hot-swap and live-insertion systems. It features 5-Ω on-state resistance, 0.25 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, and user-selectable BIASV bias voltage (1.3 V to VCC) to suppress signal distortion during insertion. Used in backplane interconnects and modular I/O subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBT6800ADWR datasheet, SN74CBT6800ADWR pinout, SN74CBT6800ADWR application, or SN74CBT6800ADWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 24-pin SOIC-DW package, 10-kΩ B-port precharge path to BIASV, TTL-level ON control input, and guaranteed operation from –40°C to 85°C with 4 V–5.5 V VCC.
Technical Context
The SN74CBT6800ADWR implements ten independent FET transmission gates controlled by a single active-low ON input. When enabled (ON = low), each A–B channel conducts bidirectionally with near-zero propagation delay and minimal RC loading due to low 5-Ω ron and 4.5-pF off-state capacitance.
When disabled (ON = high), the B port is actively pulled to BIASV via an internal 10-kΩ equivalent resistor, suppressing floating-node noise and enabling safe live insertion into powered backplanes. The device operates without DC blocking capacitors and supports mixed-voltage domain interfacing when BIASV is set independently of VCC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4 V to 5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with standard 5-V TTL and mixed 3.3/5-V system rails. |
| BIASV Range | 1.3 V to VCC - Allows biasing B port to intermediate voltage (e.g., 2.4 V) to reduce ground bounce during hot-plug events. |
| ron (Typical) | 5 Ω - Enables low-loss, high-fidelity signal pass-through with <10 mV drop at 20 mA per channel. |
| tpd (Typical) | 0.25 ns at 5 V - Supports >1 GHz data rates in short-reach parallel buses without timing skew penalties. |
| Co(OFF) | 4.5 pF - Minimizes capacitive loading on adjacent traces when switch is disabled, preserving signal integrity. |
| ICC (Max) | 50 µA - Enables low-quiescent-power operation in always-on system management functions. |
| Switch Configuration | 10-bit unidirectional enable, bidirectional data path - Single ON pin controls all ten channels simultaneously for synchronized bus isolation. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBT6800ADWR is housed in a 24-pin SOIC (DW) package, 7.5 mm × 15.4 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, with exposed metal-free construction and RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish. Thermal resistance θJA = 46°C/W enables operation up to 85°C ambient without forced airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ON (Pin 1) | Active-low enable input | Drives all ten switches; logic low connects A1–A10 to B1–B10; high disables and precharges B ports to BIASV. |
| A1–A10 (Pins 2–11) | Input/output port A | Bidirectional data terminal; electrically identical to B port; no internal direction control required. |
| GND (Pin 12) | Ground reference | Return path for VCC, BIASV, and signal currents; must be low-impedance for stable precharge behavior. |
| VCC (Pin 13) | Power supply | Supplies internal FET gate drive and logic; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm for noise immunity. |
| B1–B10 (Pins 14–23) | Input/output port B | Bidirectional data terminal; internally precharged to BIASV when ON is high; matches A-port electrical specs. |
| BIASV (Pin 24) | Bias voltage input | User-supplied reference (1.3 V to VCC) that sets precharge level for B port during disable; must be stable and low-noise. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precharged B-port outputs | Internal 10-kΩ pull-up to BIASV eliminates floating nodes during hot-swap, reducing EMI and contact arcing risk. |
| Low on-state resistance | 5 Ω typical ensures <10 mV voltage drop at 20 mA, preserving TTL logic margins across full temperature range. |
| TTL-compatible control input | VIH = 2 V / VIL = 0.8 V allows direct interface with legacy 5-V microcontrollers and CPLDs without level shifters. |
| Zero-power disable state | ICC ≤ 50 µA at VCC = 5.5 V and all inputs at rail enables use in battery-backed or always-on monitoring circuits. |
| Hot-swap optimized architecture | No internal latches or clocks; purely analog FET switching avoids metastability and enables true plug-and-play operation. |
Applications
| Modular Backplane Interconnect | Hot-Swappable I/O Card Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Inserting/removing I/O cards into a powered telecom shelf while maintaining uninterrupted data flow on shared backplane lines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bus switch isolating card-side signals from backplane during insertion; precharged B port prevents glitches on shared data lines. Use Value: Eliminates need for complex sequencing circuitry or mechanical interlocks-enables true hot-swap compliance per IEEE 1101.10. |
Use Scenario: Adding sensor acquisition modules to an industrial PLC rack without powering down the main controller or fieldbus network. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional signal bridge between module-local bus and PLC backplane; ON pin tied to card-present detection signal. Use Value: Prevents bus contention and ground bounce during insertion, avoiding spurious Modbus CRC errors or CAN bus arbitration failures. |
| Legacy System Voltage Translation | Test Equipment Signal Routing |
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing 3.3-V FPGA I/O banks to 5-V legacy peripherals (e.g., ISA-bus devices) without level-shifter ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Passive bidirectional switch; BIASV set to 3.3 V to clamp B port, allowing safe 5-V tolerant A-side operation. Use Value: Avoids propagation delay stacking and timing skew introduced by discrete level translators-preserves setup/hold margins. |
Use Scenario: Reconfigurable signal path selection in automated test equipment (ATE) where DUT signals must be routed to multiple measurement instruments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance, low-ron multiplexer enabling sub-nanosecond edge fidelity across 10 parallel test channels. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity for high-speed digital pattern generation (e.g., DDR2/3 eye diagrams) without added jitter or rise-time degradation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTD6800ADWR | Includes power-down control (OE pin) and higher 128-mA channel current rating; otherwise identical pinout and function. | Required when system demands explicit power-gating or drives heavier capacitive loads (>100 pF). | Select SN74CBTD6800ADWR if OE-controlled shutdown or higher current drive is needed; otherwise SN74CBT6800ADWR suffices. |
| 74LVC1G66GW,125 | Single-channel, 5-pin SC-70 package; 6 Ω ron, 3.3-V only; no BIASV or precharge capability. | Suitable only for point-to-point, non-hot-swap, low-density signal gating-not scalable to 10-bit bus isolation. | Use 74LVC1G66GW,125 only for isolated single-signal gating; not a functional substitute for 10-bit live-insertion requirements. |
Compared with SN74CBT6800ADWR, SN74CBTD6800ADWR adds power-down control but shares identical precharge architecture and timing, while 74LVC1G66GW,125 lacks multi-bit coordination, BIASV support, and hot-swap optimization-making it unsuitable for bus-level live insertion.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the SN74CBT6800ADWR?
The SN74CBT6800ADWR is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This range is validated per TI's recommended operating conditions and supported by thermal characterization showing θJA = 46°C/W in the SOIC-DW package. Operation outside this range may degrade ron stability and precharge accuracy.
Can the SN74CBT6800ADWR be used with a 3.3-V VCC supply?
No-the SN74CBT6800ADWR requires VCC between 4 V and 5.5 V per its recommended operating conditions. Using 3.3 V violates the minimum VCC specification and risks unreliable switching, elevated ron, and failure to meet TTL input thresholds. For 3.3-V systems, consider TI's SN74CB3Q16245 or similar 3.3-V–optimized switches.
How does the BIASV pin function when the SN74CBT6800ADWR is enabled (ON = low)?
When ON is low and the SN74CBT6800ADWR is enabled, the BIASV pin has no active role-the B port is directly connected to the A port via low-resistance FETs. BIASV only affects the B port during disable (ON = high), when it establishes the precharge voltage level through the internal 10-kΩ equivalent resistor.
Is the SN74CBT6800ADWR pin-compatible with other packages in the same family?
Yes-SN74CBT6800ADWR (SOIC-DW), SN74CBT6800ADBR (SSOP-DB), and SN74CBT6800APWR (TSSOP-PW) share identical pinout and logic functionality. Mechanical differences (body size, pitch, thermal performance) exist, but PCB layout changes are required only for footprint adaptation-not signal routing or schematic revision.
Does the SN74CBT6800ADWR require external pull-up resistors on the ON pin?
No-TI's datasheet specifies that unused control inputs must be held at VCC or GND, and the ON pin is internally compatible with TTL logic levels (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V). A direct connection to a microcontroller GPIO or system enable signal is sufficient; no external pull-up is needed unless open-drain driving is used.
