Product details
Overview
SN74CBTLV16800GR from Texas Instruments is a low-voltage 20-bit FET bus switch with precharged B-port outputs, 5-Ω on-state resistance, rail-to-rail switching, and Ioff support for partial-power-down operation. It operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V and is used in hot-swap backplane interfaces and high-speed memory expansion subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBTLV16800GR datasheet, SN74CBTLV16800GR pinout, SN74CBTLV16800GR application, or SN74CBTLV16800GR equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual 10-bit configurable switching architecture, BIASV-controlled precharge, propagation delay under 0.25 ns at 3.3 V, and TSSOP-48 package compatibility with live-insertion systems.
Technical Context
The SN74CBTLV16800GR implements two independent 10-bit FET bus switches, each controlled by a dedicated output-enable (OE) input. Its MOSFET-based switch topology enables rail-to-rail signal pass-through with minimal distortion and supports bidirectional data flow between A and B ports.
When OE is low, the corresponding 10-bit path connects A to B with typical on-resistance of 5 Ω at VCC = 3 V. When OE is high, the B port is actively precharged to a user-supplied BIASV voltage (1.3 V to VCC) via an internal ~10-kΩ equivalent resistor, suppressing noise during live insertion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.3 V to 3.6 V - Enables direct interface with 2.5 V and 3.3 V logic domains without level translation. |
| ron (Typ) | 5 Ω at VCC = 3 V - Ensures sub-nanosecond propagation delay and minimal signal attenuation in high-speed buses. |
| tpd (Max) | 0.25 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - Supports >1 GHz data rates in memory and interconnect applications. |
| Ioff | 10 µA at VCC = 0 V - Prevents backflow current during partial power-down, protecting upstream drivers. |
| BIASV Range | 1.3 V to VCC - Allows precise precharge voltage tuning to match system reference levels and reduce ground bounce. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM - Provides robust handling tolerance for board-level assembly and field service environments. |
| Package | TSSOP-48 (DGG) - 6.2 mm × 12.5 mm footprint with 0.5 mm pitch, optimized for dense PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-48 (DGG) package: 12.5 mm × 6.2 mm body, 0.5 mm lead pitch, 1.2 mm max height, JEDEC MO-153 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A10, 2A1–2A10 | A-side data inputs/outputs | First and second 10-bit input/output ports; bidirectional, rail-to-rail compatible. |
| 1B1–1B10, 2B1–2B10 | B-side data inputs/outputs | Corresponding B-side ports; internally precharged to BIASV when OE is high. |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output-enable controls | Active-low enables for respective 10-bit sections; must be pulled up to VCC for power-up safety. |
| BIASV | Bias voltage supply | User-supplied reference (1.3 V to VCC) setting precharge level for all B-port terminals. |
| VCC, GND | Power and ground | Dual VCC/GND pairs (pins 23 & 35, 7 & 29) ensure low-impedance supply routing and noise reduction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precharged B-port outputs | Reduces live-insertion transients by holding B pins at stable BIASV instead of floating, eliminating ground bounce and false triggering. |
| 5-Ω low on-resistance | Minimizes RC delay and signal degradation across 20-bit parallel paths, preserving edge integrity in DDR and PCI Express sideband links. |
| Ioff protection | Blocks current flow when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe insertion/removal of daughter cards into powered backplanes without disrupting host logic. |
| Rail-to-rail switching | Supports full-swing signals from GND to VCC on both A and B ports, eliminating need for external biasing or level shifters. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 100 mA per JESD 78 Class II - ensures robust operation in noisy industrial and telecom environments. |
Applications
| Hot-Swap Backplane Interface | Memory Expansion Subsystem |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTLV3861PWR | 10-bit (not 20-bit), same VCC range and ron, but no BIASV pin or precharge function. | Suitable only for non-live-insertion, lower-pin-count applications where B-port stabilization is not required. | Select when space or cost constraints eliminate need for 20-bit width and live-insertion support. |
| SN74CBT16210DGVR | 20-bit, 3.3 V only, no Ioff or BIASV; higher ron (12 Ω typical) and slower tpd (2.5 ns). | Applicable in static, non-hot-swap systems with relaxed timing and power-down requirements. | Choose only if legacy 3.3 V-only design forbids voltage scaling and live-insertion is absent. |
Compared with SN74CBTLV3861PWR and SN74CBT16210DGVR, the SN74CBTLV16800GR uniquely combines 20-bit width, BIASV-controlled precharge, Ioff-enabled partial power-down, and sub-0.3 ns propagation delay - making it the sole option for high-density, hot-pluggable, low-voltage bus isolation.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the SN74CBTLV16800GR?
The SN74CBTLV16800GR is fully specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This range is validated per TI's recommended operating conditions and supported across all electrical parameters including on-resistance, propagation delay, and Ioff. The device uses a TSSOP-48 (DGG) package with JEDEC MO-153 compliance and Level-1 moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring reliable performance in industrial and telecom environments where thermal cycling occurs.
Does the SN74CBTLV16800GR require external pull-up resistors on its OE pins?
Yes, the SN74CBTLV16800GR requires external pull-up resistors on both 1OE and 2OE pins to ensure a defined high state during power-up and power-down sequences. TI specifies that OE should be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor, with minimum value determined by the current-sinking capability of the driving source. This prevents undefined switch states and guarantees high-impedance isolation before system initialization completes - a critical requirement for hot-swap safety in backplane designs using the SN74CBTLV16800GR.
Can the BIASV pin of the SN74CBTLV16800GR be left unconnected?
No, the BIASV pin of the SN74CBTLV16800GR must be actively driven within 1.3 V to VCC - it cannot be left floating or unconnected. When OE is high, the B-port outputs are precharged through an internal ~10-kΩ equivalent resistor to the BIASV voltage. An open or undefined BIASV causes unpredictable precharge levels, leading to signal distortion, increased ground bounce, or false logic transitions during live insertion. TI's datasheet explicitly defines BIASV as a user-supplied bias voltage, not an optional feature.
Is the SN74CBTLV16800GR pin-compatible with other members of the Widebus™ family?
No, the SN74CBTLV16800GR is not pin-compatible with other Widebus™ devices such as SN74CBTLV3861 or SN74CBT16210. Its TSSOP-48 (DGG) package contains 48 pins with unique assignments including dual OE controls, dedicated BIASV, and split power/ground distribution. Pinouts differ significantly across bit-widths and feature sets - for example, SN74CBTLV3861PWR uses a 24-pin TSSOP and lacks BIASV entirely. Direct substitution would require PCB redesign; the SN74CBTLV16800GR must be laid out using its specific DGG mechanical drawing.
What is the typical on-state resistance (ron) of the SN74CBTLV16800GR at 2.5 V supply?
The typical on-state resistance (ron) of the SN74CBTLV16800GR is 5 Ω at VCC = 2.5 V, measured with VI = 0 V and II = 24 mA per switch. This value is confirmed in TI's Electrical Characteristics table and applies uniformly across all 20 channels. At this low ron, the device achieves minimal voltage drop and signal attenuation - critical for maintaining timing margins in high-speed parallel buses where the SN74CBTLV16800GR is deployed.
