SN74CBTLV3251: Bi-directional

daniel lin

Part Number: SN74CBTLV3251

I do not see it is written in datasheet, even the figure shows. Can someone confirm with me whether this SN74CBTLV3251 is bi-directional?

All analog and FET switches are bidirectional. (A closed switch behaves the same as a small resistor.) See Switches and muxes: Are switches & multiplexers bidirectional?

Daniel,

Clemens is on the mark with this one. The SN74CBTLV3251 is a FET switch so the signal can pass through from either direction just the same. All the source and drain pins also offer the powered-off protection (Ioff), so you can run this device in either direction you need with the same features supported both ways.
