SN74CB3Q3257PWR from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | S | input | Channel select input. Selects which B port (B1 or B2) is connected to the common A port on each of the four channels. TTL/CMOS-compatible; drivable by 5V or 3.3V logic. |
| 2 | 1B1 | bidirectional | Channel 1 I/O 1. B-side port of channel 1, connected to 1A when S selects the B1 leg and OE is low. Supports 0-5V signaling; ron ≈ 4Ω typ. |
| 3 | 1B2 | bidirectional | Channel 1 I/O 2. B-side port of channel 1, connected to 1A when S selects the B2 leg and OE is low. Supports 0-5V signaling; ron ≈ 4Ω typ. |
| 4 | 1A | bidirectional | Channel 1 common (A) port. Connects to either 1B1 or 1B2 through the FET switch as selected by S, when OE is low. |
| 5 | 2B1 | bidirectional | Channel 2 I/O 1. B-side port of channel 2, connected to 2A when S selects the B1 leg and OE is low. |
| 6 | 2B2 | bidirectional | Channel 2 I/O 2. B-side port of channel 2, connected to 2A when S selects the B2 leg and OE is low. |
| 7 | 2A | bidirectional | Channel 2 common (A) port. Connects to either 2B1 or 2B2 through the FET switch as selected by S, when OE is low. |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground reference. 0V return for the device. |
| 9 | 3A | bidirectional | Channel 3 common (A) port. Connects to either 3B1 or 3B2 through the FET switch as selected by S, when OE is low. |
| 10 | 3B2 | bidirectional | Channel 3 I/O 2. B-side port of channel 3, connected to 3A when S selects the B2 leg and OE is low. |
| 11 | 3B1 | bidirectional | Channel 3 I/O 1. B-side port of channel 3, connected to 3A when S selects the B1 leg and OE is low. |
| 12 | 4A | bidirectional | Channel 4 common (A) port. Connects to either 4B1 or 4B2 through the FET switch as selected by S, when OE is low. |
| 13 | 4B2 | bidirectional | Channel 4 I/O 2. B-side port of channel 4, connected to 4A when S selects the B2 leg and OE is low. |
| 14 | 4B1 | bidirectional | Channel 4 I/O 1. B-side port of channel 4, connected to 4A when S selects the B1 leg and OE is low. |
| 15 | OE | input | Output Enable, active low. When low, the selected FET switches are ON connecting A to B1 or B2 per S. When high, all switches are OFF (high impedance). |
| 16 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage input. Recommended operating range 2.3V to 3.6V (absolute max 4.6V). Bypass with a local 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 840 faces against 255 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
