VS3V257 / VS3V2257
High-speed 3.3V CMOS VSwitch
Quad 2:1 Mux/Demux
Applications
•= 3.3V to 2.5V translation
•= 2.5V to 1.8V translation
•= Hot-Swapping
General Description
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.
•= Logic replacement
•= Memory bank, video, and audio
switching
Features
•= Enhanced N-FET with no DC path to VCC
or GND in normal operating signal voltage
range.
•= Low impedance switches connect inputs to
outputs with near-zero propagation delay:
5Ω (VS3V257) and 25Ω (VS3V2257)
•= Pin-compatible with 74LVC257 or
equivalent logic devices
•= Zero added ground bounce or signal noise
•= Break-before-make feature
•= Undershoot clamp diodes on all switch and
control pins
•= ESD rating >2000V (Human Body Model)
•= or >200V (Machine Model)
•= Latch-up current >100mA
•= Available in 150-mil wide QSOP package
