Product details
Overview
74ABT245DB,112 from Nexperia is an octal bidirectional 3-state transceiver with independent direction (DIR) and output enable (OE) controls, operating at 4.5–5.5 V. It provides ±64 mA/–32 mA drive capability, IOFF partial power-down protection, and supports live insertion in bus interface applications such as industrial backplanes and legacy TTL-compatible data paths.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT245DB,112 datasheet, 74ABT245DB,112 pinout, 74ABT245DB,112 application, or 74ABT245DB,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional bus timing (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.6 ns), IOFF leakage (±100 µA at VCC = 0 V), thermal range (–40 °C to +85 °C), and SO20 package compatibility with legacy PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The 74ABT245DB,112 implements a BiCMOS-based octal transceiver architecture with separate DIR and active-low OE inputs enabling precise control of data flow direction and output state. Its IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs during power-down, preventing backflow current when VCC = 0 V.
Functionally, it operates in three modes: A→B (DIR = HIGH, OE = LOW), B→A (DIR = LOW, OE = LOW), or high-impedance (OE = HIGH). Propagation delays are symmetric for both directions (tPLH/tPHL typ. 2.2–2.9 ns), and 3-state transition times (tPZH/tPLZ ≤ 5.3 ns) ensure clean bus arbitration in multiplexed systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL and CMOS logic rails without level-shifting. |
| Drive Strength | +64 mA / –32 mA - sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple TTL loads directly. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.6 ns @ VCC = 5.0 V - enables reliable operation in 100+ MHz bus systems with tight timing margins. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±100 µA @ VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap or partial power-down sequences. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial environments including factory automation and telecom infrastructure. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets JEDEC JS-001/JS-002 Class 2/C3 for robust handling in manufacturing and field service. |
| Input Clamping Voltage | VIK = –1.2 V - protects inputs against negative transients up to –1.2 V without external diodes. |
Pinout & Package
74ABT245DB,112 is supplied in SO20 (SOT163-1) plastic small outline package: 20-pin, 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm pitch, gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction control input | HIGH selects A→B data flow; LOW selects B→A - enables full-duplex bus arbitration with single control line. |
| 2–9 (A0–A7) | Port A I/O terminals | Bidirectional data pins on side A; internally isolated during 3-state mode when OE = HIGH. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all I/O and supply currents; requires low-inductance PCB connection. |
| 11–18 (B0–B7) | Port B I/O terminals | Bidirectional data pins on side B; electrically identical to A-side with matched timing and drive. |
| 19 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Drives all outputs to high-impedance when HIGH - essential for bus sharing and multi-drop configurations. |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply | Must be decoupled locally with ≥100 nF ceramic capacitor to suppress switching noise and maintain rail stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Octal bidirectional bus interface | Simultaneous 8-bit data transfer in either direction controlled by one DIR pin - reduces control logic overhead vs. discrete buffers. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Outputs disabled and leakage limited to ±100 µA when VCC = 0 V - enables safe hot-plug in modular backplane systems. |
| Power-up 3-state | Outputs remain in high-impedance until VCC stabilizes above 2.0 V - prevents bus contention during power sequencing. |
| TTL-level input compatibility | VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V - interfaces directly with legacy 5 V TTL without level translators or pull-ups. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD78 Class II Level A - ensures robustness against transient overcurrent events in noisy industrial settings. |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Interface | Legacy System Bus Extension |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Interfacing microcontroller peripherals to a shared 8-bit ISA-style backplane with multiple slot devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional bus transceiver managing data flow between CPU address/data bus and peripheral cards under DIR-controlled direction and OE-gated arbitration. Use Value: Eliminates need for dual unidirectional buffers and reduces PCB real estate while maintaining <4.6 ns propagation delay for cycle-accurate timing. | Use Scenario: Extending a vintage 8051-based control system's data bus to add new sensor acquisition modules without redesigning the main board. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-translating and isolating legacy TTL bus segments while preserving signal integrity and timing margins across added trace length. Use Value: Direct TTL compatibility and ±64 mA drive overcome capacitive loading from extended traces, avoiding timing skew or signal degradation. |
| Hot-Swappable Module Interface | Test Equipment Signal Routing |
Use Scenario: Enabling live insertion/extraction of functional modules in programmable logic controller (PLC) carrier boards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolating module-local bus from main system bus using IOFF protection during power-up/down transitions. Use Value: IOFF circuitry limits back-current to ±100 µA when module is unpowered, preventing damage to host controller or adjacent modules. | Use Scenario: Routing DUT signals between multiple test instruments (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, pattern generator) in automated test fixtures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional signal switch enabling flexible path reconfiguration via DIR/OE control without mechanical relays. Use Value: Sub-5 ns propagation delay and matched A/B timing ensure deterministic signal routing with minimal jitter or skew across test channels. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVT245PW,118 | Lower supply range (2.7–3.6 V); 3.3 V only; 32 mA drive; faster tPLH (1.8 ns typ.) | Designed for 3.3 V systems; not 5 V tolerant; unsuitable for mixed-voltage or legacy 5 V buses. | Select only for new 3.3 V designs requiring lower power and higher speed; incompatible with 5 V logic families. |
| SN74ABT245N | DIP20 package (discontinued per Nexperia v.2 revision); identical electrical specs but through-hole mounting | Used in prototyping or legacy repair where SO20 footprint is unavailable; no production support after 1998. | Choose only for hand-soldered lab builds or replacement of obsolete DIP sockets; not recommended for volume SMT production. |
Compared with 74ABT245DB,112, the 74LVT245PW,118 offers superior speed and lower voltage operation but sacrifices 5 V compatibility and bus drive strength, while the SN74ABT245N retains full electrical equivalence but lacks modern packaging and supply chain support.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 74ABT245DB,112?
The 74ABT245DB,112 does not operate on a clock signal-it is an asynchronous transceiver. Its usable data rate is determined by propagation delay (≤4.6 ns) and system setup/hold timing. In practice, it reliably supports bidirectional bus transfers up to 100–120 MHz in well-designed PCB layouts with controlled impedance and proper termination.
Can 74ABT245DB,112 interface directly with 3.3 V logic?
No-74ABT245DB,112 is a 5 V-only device with VIH = 2.0 V minimum and VIL = 0.8 V maximum, but its outputs swing rail-to-rail (0 V to VCC ≈ 5 V). Direct connection to 3.3 V inputs risks overvoltage damage. A level-shifter or series resistor + clamp diode network is required for safe interfacing.
Does 74ABT245DB,112 support power-down isolation when VCC is disconnected?
Yes-the integrated IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs and limits leakage to ±100 µA when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-current flow from live bus lines into the unpowered device. This feature is verified per JESD78 and enables safe hot-swap operation in modular systems.
Is the SO20 package (SOT163-1) RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes-74ABT245DB,112 in SO20 (SOT163-1) packaging is RoHS compliant and lead-free, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU and Nexperia's environmental standards. The device carries the "Pb-free" marking and is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020.
