The VS3V257 is a high-speed LVTTL–compatible Quad 2:1 multiplexer/demultiplexer. The VS3V257
contains four mux /demux channels, with a com mon path c ontrol (S) and active low enable (/E) . The low ON
resistance of the VS3V257 allows inputs to be connected to outputs , without adding propagation delay and
without generating additional signal noise. The VS3V2257 has 25Ω resistors in series with the switches to
reduce ground-bounce noise and signal reflection.
The VS3V257 and VS3V2257 are designed for 3.3V to 2.5V or 2.5V to 1.8V level trans lation, without any
external components. These switches also offer very high impedance between switch terminals in the
power-off or “disabled” state. This feature, combined with near-zero propagation delay in the “on” state,
makes VS3V257 and VS3V2257 ideal interface elements for hot-swapping applications.

Notes:
1. See test circuits and waveforms.
2. This parameter is the calculated theoretical RC time constant of ON-state resistance of the switch and the
specified load capacitance when driven by an ideal voltage source (zero source impedance). This time-constant is
on the order of 0.25 ns for VS3V257 and 1.25 ns for VS3V2257. Since this time-constant is much smaller than
rise/fall times of typical driving signals, it adds very little propagation delay to the system.
3. This parameter is guaranteed, but not production tested.
