description/ordering information

The SN74CBT16244C is a high-speed TTL-compatible FET bus switch with low ON-state resistance (ron),

allowing for minimal propagation delay. Active Undershoot-Protection Circuitry on the A and B ports of the

SN74CBT16244C provides protection for undershoot up to −2 V by sensing an undershoot event and ensuring

that the switch remains in the proper OFF state.

The SN74CBT16244C is organized as four 4-bit bus switches with separate output-enable (1OE, 2OE, 3OE,

4OE) inputs. It can be used as four 4-bit bus switches, two 8-bit bus switches, or as one 16-bit bus switch. When

OE is low, the associated 4-bit bus switch is ON, and the A port is connected to the B port, allowing bidirectional

data flow between ports. When OE is high, the associated 4-bit bus switch is OFF, and the high-impedance state

exists between the A and B ports.

This device is fully specified for partial-power-down applications using Ioff. The Ioff feature ensures that

damaging current will not backflow through the device when it is powered down. The device has isolation during

power off.

To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE should be tied to VCC through a pullup

resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the driver.
