Product details
Overview
SN74CBTLV3126D from Texas Instruments is a low-voltage quadruple FET bus switch with independent 5Ω analog switches, rail-to-rail signal switching, and Ioff partial-power-down protection. It operates from 2.3V to 3.6V, supports –40°C to 85°C ambient, and is used in protocol isolation (JTAG/SPI/GPIO) within enterprise computing and wired networking systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74CBTLV3126D datasheet, SN74CBTLV3126D pinout, SN74CBTLV3126D application, or SN74CBTLV3126D equivalent, key selection criteria include on-resistance ≤8Ω at 3.3V, 14-pin SOIC package compatibility, Ioff leakage ≤10µA at VCC = 0V, and guaranteed operation across industrial temperature range without power sequencing.
Technical Context
The SN74CBTLV3126D implements four independent bidirectional FET switches, each controlled by a dedicated active-high output-enable (OE) input. Each switch connects A and B ports with sub-8Ω on-resistance and supports full rail-to-rail voltage swing (0V to VCC) on both sides.
Its Ioff feature actively blocks current backflow when VCC = 0V, enabling hot-swap and live-insertion use cases. The device achieves >100mA latch-up immunity per JESD78 Class II and maintains high-impedance isolation during power-up/down when OE is pulled to GND.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-resistance (ron) | 5Ω typical, ≤8Ω max at VCC = 3.3V, 64mA - ensures minimal signal attenuation and voltage drop in high-speed data paths. |
| Supply voltage (VCC) | 2.3V to 3.6V - compatible with 2.5V and 3.3V logic domains without level translation. |
| Ioff leakage | ≤10µA at VCC = 0V, VI/VO = 0–3.6V - prevents damaging back-current during partial power-down. |
| Propagation delay (tpd) | 0.15–0.25ns - enables <1GHz signal routing with negligible timing impact in bus-switching applications. |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded and networking equipment. |
| ESD rating (HBM) | ±2000V - meets standard handling requirements for automated assembly and field deployment. |
| Input capacitance (Ci) | 2.5pF - minimizes loading on driving sources and preserves signal integrity in high-frequency traces. |
Pinout & Package
SN74CBTLV3126D is packaged in a 14-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 8.65mm × 3.91mm, with gull-wing leads and standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. Thermal pad is not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE | Active-high enable inputs | Individually control switch conduction; OE = low disables corresponding A–B path into high-Z state. |
| 1A–4A, 1B–4B | Bidirectional I/O channels | Each pair forms a low-resistance, rail-to-rail analog path; no directionality or internal buffering. |
| VCC (Pin 14) | Power supply | Single 2.3–3.6V supply powers all four switches and logic; decoupling capacitor required. |
| GND (Pin 7) | Reference ground | Common return for all signals and supply; must be low-impedance connection for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5Ω switch resistance | Enables low-loss signal routing for high-speed digital buses (e.g., SPI clock/data lines up to 200MHz). |
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Supports full 0V–VCC voltage swing on both A and B ports-eliminates need for external level shifters in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Guarantees <10µA back-current when unpowered-enables safe hot-plug of peripheral modules without system reset. |
| Standard 126-type pinout | Direct drop-in replacement for legacy 74-series bus switches (e.g., SN74CBT3126), simplifying board redesign. |
| JESD78 Class II latch-up | Withstands >100mA transient stress-ensures robustness in noisy industrial environments with ESD or surge events. |
Applications
| Protocol Isolation | Hot-Swap Peripheral Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Isolating JTAG debug, SPI flash, or GPIO control lines between host processor and removable daughter cards in modular servers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional analog switch enabling/disabling signal paths without introducing propagation delay or logic inversion. Use Value: Eliminates need for power sequencing during card insertion/removal; maintains signal integrity with <0.25ns tpd and 5Ω ron. |
Use Scenario: Enabling live insertion of network interface modules in enterprise switches while main system remains powered. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ioff-protected bus switch providing galvanic isolation between powered and unpowered subsystems. Use Value: Prevents backfeed current from hot-swapped module into main board's VCC rail, avoiding brownouts or latch-up. |
| Data Center Backplane Switching | Industrial I/O Multiplexing |
Use Scenario: Routing sensor data or control signals across shared backplane traces in rack-mounted compute nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (2.5pF Ci), low-resistance switch minimizing crosstalk and skew across parallel bus segments. Use Value: Supports clean 100+MHz signal transmission with <7pF Cio(OFF) in disabled state-reducing inter-channel interference. |
Use Scenario: Sharing limited MCU GPIO pins among multiple sensors, actuators, or communication peripherals in building automation controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Independent channel enables time-multiplexed access to isolated analog/digital resources without software overhead. Use Value: Reduces BOM count vs discrete switches; 4-channel integration lowers PCB area and improves thermal uniformity. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FET bus switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74CBTLV3126DR | Same silicon die, identical electrical specs, 14-pin SOIC package with tape-and-reel packaging (2500 pcs/reel). | Identical functional use; differs only in packaging format and orderable part number suffix. | Select SN74CBTLV3126DR for volume production requiring reel delivery; SN74CBTLV3126D is obsolete but may exist in legacy inventory. |
| SN74CBTLV3126DGVR | Same functionality and specs, but in 14-pin TVSOP (DGV) package (3.60mm × 4.40mm), with Level-1 MSL rating. | Smaller footprint and finer pitch; better suited for space-constrained designs where SOIC is too large. | Choose SN74CBTLV3126DGVR when board real estate is critical and reflow profile supports TVSOP; verify thermal derating (RθJA = 154.8°C/W). |
Compared with SN74CBTLV3126D, SN74CBTLV3126DR offers identical performance in production-ready packaging, while SN74CBTLV3126DGVR trades larger thermal resistance for 45% smaller footprint-making it preferable for density-optimized layouts despite higher junction temperature rise under load.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN74CBTLV3126D?
The SN74CBTLV3126D is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This specification applies to the SOIC (D) package variant and is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A104. Operation beyond 85°C requires thermal derating analysis using RθJA = 123.0°C/W and board-level cooling validation.
Does SN74CBTLV3126D support true bidirectional signal flow?
Yes, SN74CBTLV3126D provides fully bidirectional analog switching: each A–B channel conducts equally in either direction with identical 5Ω typical on-resistance and rail-to-rail voltage handling. No internal direction control or biasing is required-signal polarity and source/sink roles are determined entirely by external circuitry.
Can SN74CBTLV3126D be used with 1.8V logic interfaces?
SN74CBTLV3126D does not operate from a 1.8V supply, but its rail-to-rail I/O supports 1.8V signal levels when VCC = 2.3–3.6V. Input thresholds (VIH ≥ 1.7V at VCC = 2.3V) and output swing (0V to VCC) ensure interoperability with 1.8V CMOS drivers and receivers without level shifters.
How is Ioff protection implemented in SN74CBTLV3126D?
SN74CBTLV3126D uses integrated FET gate control that forces all channel transistors into cutoff when VCC = 0V, limiting back-current to ≤10µA even with up to 3.6V applied to any I/O pin. This behavior is tested per JESD78 and eliminates need for external blocking diodes in hot-swap architectures.
Is SN74CBTLV3126D pin-compatible with older 74-series bus switches?
Yes, SN74CBTLV3126D uses the standard 126-type pinout defined in TI's 74CBT3126 and industry-standard 14-pin SOIC layout. Pin assignments for OE, A/B channels, VCC, and GND match exactly-enabling direct PCB replacement without layout changes when upgrading from bipolar or older CMOS bus switches.
