Product details
Overview
SN74CBTLV16210DL from Texas Instruments is a 20-bit, low-voltage, high-speed bus switch IC with dual 10-bit configurable switching, 5-Ω typical on-state resistance (ron), rail-to-rail signal handling (0 V to VCC), and Ioff partial-power-down support. It operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V and delivers sub-nanosecond propagation delay (0.15 ns typ at 2.5 V) for high-fidelity data path isolation in memory expansion and FPGA interconnect applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBTLV16210DL datasheet, SN74CBTLV16210DL pinout, SN74CBTLV16210DL application, or SN74CBTLV16210DL equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-OE control architecture, 48-pin SSOP (DL) package, guaranteed 10 µA max ICC at 3.6 V, and compatibility with LVTTL/CMOS logic levels across industrial temperature range (−40°C to 85°C).
Technical Context
The SN74CBTLV16210DL implements two independent 10-bit FET-based analog switches, each controlled by a dedicated OE input-enabling flexible partitioning as either two 10-bit buses or one unified 20-bit path. Its transmission-gate topology supports bidirectional, noninverting signal flow with no internal level shifting.
It features Ioff circuitry that actively blocks current backflow when VCC = 0 V, ensuring system-level isolation during hot-insertion or partial power-down sequences. The device maintains high-impedance state on all I/Os when OE is high or during power transitions, provided OE is pulled up to VCC via external resistor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - Enables direct interface with 2.5 V and 3.3 V logic domains without level translation. |
| On-State Resistance (ron) | 5 Ω typ - Minimizes voltage drop and signal distortion for high-speed digital signals up to 500 Mbps. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 0.15 ns typ at 2.5 V - Supports sub-GHz timing-critical paths in DDR memory buffers and FPGA I/O expansion. |
| Ioff Current | 10 µA max at VCC = 0 V - Prevents damaging back-current during partial power-down, critical for hot-swap systems. |
| Input Capacitance (Ci) | 4.5 pF - Reduces loading on driving sources, preserving signal integrity in dense parallel bus layouts. |
| Off-State Capacitance (Cio) | 6.5 pF - Limits crosstalk between enabled and disabled channels in multi-bus architectures. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to 85°C - Qualified for industrial-grade embedded control, test equipment, and telecom infrastructure. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBTLV16210DL uses a 48-pin SSOP (DL) package measuring 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm × 2.4 mm (max height), JEDEC MO-153 compliant, with 0.5 mm pitch and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 located at top-left corner (Q1 quadrant), marked "CBTLV16210".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A10, 2A1–2A10 | Port A inputs/outputs (first/second 10-bit bus) | Bidirectional data terminals for first or second 10-bit channel; electrically identical to corresponding B-side pins. |
| 1B1–1B10, 2B1–2B10 | Port B inputs/outputs (first/second 10-bit bus) | Paired with respective A-side pins; switch closure connects A↔B with <5 Ω resistance and no polarity inversion. |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output-enable controls (active-low) | Independent enable for each 10-bit section; low = conductive path, high = high-Z isolation between ports. |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 2.3–3.6 V rail powers both switch sections and control logic; no separate analog/digital supplies required. |
| GND (Pins 8, 16, 35, 47) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve noise immunity in high-speed switching. |
| NC (Pins 1, 48) | No internal connection | Unbonded pads; must remain unconnected to avoid mechanical stress or unintended coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail analog switching | Supports 0 V to VCC signal swing without clipping-enables transparent pass-through of LVCMOS, LVTTL, and mixed-voltage logic. |
| Dual independent OE control | Allows dynamic reconfiguration: e.g., isolate CPU address bus while enabling data bus, or split 20-bit path into two independent 10-bit lanes. |
| Ioff partial-power-down protection | Guarantees <10 µA leakage when VCC = 0 V-prevents back-driving powered subsystems during board-level power sequencing. |
| Low 5-Ω on-resistance | Reduces insertion loss and timing skew across parallel traces, maintaining signal fidelity in 20-bit wide synchronous interfaces. |
| Sub-1 ns propagation delay | Enables use in >500 MHz clock domains without added timing budget overhead-critical for high-speed memory and FPGA I/O bridging. |
Applications
| Memory Expansion Interface | FPGA I/O Expansion |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-latency multiplexer enabling time-division access to serial PHYs without software overhead. Use Value: 0.15 ns tpd ensures negligible delay in deterministic real-time communication stacks; SSOP package fits tight industrial PCB spacing constraints. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBT16210DL | Higher VCC range (4.5–5.5 V); 7 Ω ron; no Ioff support; TTL-compatible inputs only. | Requires 5 V supply; unsuitable for partial-power-down or mixed-voltage 2.5/3.3 V systems. | Select only if legacy 5 V design mandates TTL-level compatibility and Ioff is not required. |
| SN74LVC16245ADGGR | 3.3 V-only (1.65–3.6 V); direction-controlled transceiver (not bidirectional switch); 24 mA drive strength. | Unidirectional data flow; requires direction pin management; adds propagation delay (~4 ns) and power consumption (~20 mA ICC). | Choose when level-shifting with direction control is needed; not a functional replacement for passive, bidirectional switching. |
Compared with SN74CBTLV16210DL, SN74CBT16210DL lacks Ioff and operates only at 5 V, limiting modern low-voltage designs; SN74LVC16245ADGGR introduces direction logic overhead and higher latency, making it unsuitable for transparent, zero-delay bus isolation tasks.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74CBTLV16210DL?
The SN74CBTLV16210DL does not specify a maximum clock frequency because it functions as an analog bus switch-not a clocked logic device. Its performance is characterized by propagation delay (0.15 ns typ) and bandwidth, supporting data rates exceeding 500 Mbps in well-terminated parallel buses. Signal integrity depends on PCB layout, load capacitance, and driver strength-not internal clocking.
Can the SN74CBTLV16210DL be used with 1.8 V logic signals?
No-the SN74CBTLV16210DL requires VCC between 2.3 V and 3.6 V and is not rated for 1.8 V operation. Applying 1.8 V to VCC violates recommended operating conditions and may cause unreliable switching or excessive ICC. For 1.8 V systems, consider TI's SN74AVC16T245 or compatible AVC-series level translators instead of the SN74CBTLV16210DL.
How should unused OE pins be handled on the SN74CBTLV16210DL?
Unused OE pins on the SN74CBTLV16210DL must be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor (minimum value determined by driver sink capability) to ensure the associated 10-bit switch remains in high-impedance state during power-up, power-down, or floating conditions. Leaving OE unconnected risks undefined output states and potential bus contention.
Does the SN74CBTLV16210DL support hot-plug operation?
Yes-the SN74CBTLV16210DL supports hot-plug operation via its Ioff feature, which limits current to ≤10 µA when VCC = 0 V. This prevents back-current from powered backplanes into unpowered modules. However, external circuitry (e.g., current-limiting resistors, TVS diodes) is still required to meet full hot-swap compliance standards like PCI Express or CompactPCI.
Is the SN74CBTLV16210DL pin-compatible with other Widebus™ 20-bit switches?
Yes-the SN74CBTLV16210DL shares identical 48-pin SSOP (DL) pinout and functional mapping with SN74CBTLV16210DLR and SN74CBTLV16210GR (TSSOP), differing only in packaging and reel quantity. All variants use the same CBTLV16210 top-side marking and support identical electrical behavior under matching VCC and temperature conditions.
