Product details
Overview
74ABT245DB,118 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 operates across –40 °C to +85 °C for bus isolation in industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT245DB,118 datasheet, 74ABT245DB,118 pinout, 74ABT245DB,118 application, or 74ABT245DB,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional data flow control, high-speed propagation delays (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.6 ns), IOFF-enabled hot-swap capability, and SO20 package compatibility with legacy 74-series layouts.
Technical Context
The device implements a dual-bus interface with separate A-side (pins 2–9) and B-side (pins 11–18) 8-bit I/O ports, controlled by DIR (pin 1) to determine data flow direction (A→B or B→A). OE (pin 19) independently places all outputs into high-impedance state regardless of DIR state.
Its BiCMOS architecture enables TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and fast switching with tPZH/tPLZ ≤ 5.3 ns, while IOFF circuitry limits off-state leakage to ±100 μA when VCC = 0 V-critical for live insertion and multi-voltage domain isolation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - ensures robust operation under industrial rail tolerances without level-shifting. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.6 ns - supports >200 MHz bus toggle rates in synchronous systems. |
| Output Drive | +64 mA / –32 mA - drives heavy capacitive loads (e.g., 50 pF buses) with clean edges. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±100 μA at VCC = 0 V - prevents backfeed current during partial power-down sequencing. |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for extended industrial ambient environments. |
| ESD Rating | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - withstands handling and board-level ESD events. |
| Input Clamping | VIK ≥ –1.2 V - protects inputs against negative transients on shared bus lines. |
Pinout & Package
74ABT245DB,118 is supplied in SO20 (SOT163-1) package: plastic small outline, 20 leads, 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction control input | Active-HIGH signal selecting A→B (DIR=H) or B→A (DIR=L) data path. |
| 2–9 (A0–A7) | A-side I/O port | Bidirectional data pins connected to local subsystem bus; high-impedance when OE=H. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal logic and output drivers. |
| 11–18 (B0–B7) | B-side I/O port | Bidirectional data pins interfacing to upstream/downstream bus segment. |
| 19 (OE) | Output enable (active LOW) | When HIGH, forces all A/B outputs into 3-state; overrides DIR for bus isolation. |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | 5 V nominal supply; IOFF remains active even during VCC ramp-down. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Octal bidirectional interface | Enables full-duplex or half-duplex data exchange between two 8-bit buses using single control signals. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Prevents destructive back-current when VCC is removed while A/B buses remain energized. |
| Live insertion/extraction support | IOFF + 3-state operation allows safe hot-plug of daughter cards without system reset. |
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | Accepts standard 5 V TTL logic levels without external biasing or level translation. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD78 Class II - eliminates risk of destructive latch-up in noisy environments. |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Isolation | Legacy System Bus Extension |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Isolating CPU and peripheral modules on a DIN-rail mounted PLC backplane where power domains may sequence independently. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional data bridge enabling read/write access between isolated 5 V domains while maintaining signal integrity. Use Value: IOFF prevents backfeed during module hot-swap; 4.6 ns max propagation delay preserves timing margins in 25 MHz parallel bus cycles. | Use Scenario: Extending a vintage 8086-based SBC bus to add new I/O expansion cards without modifying existing address/data routing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-consistent transceiver translating between local and extended bus segments with direction-controlled flow. Use Value: TTL-compatible inputs eliminate need for external translators; SO20 footprint matches legacy 74LS245 layouts for drop-in replacement. |
| Test Equipment Signal Routing | Modular Data Acquisition Chassis |
Use Scenario: Dynamically reconfiguring signal paths between DUT connectors and measurement instruments in automated test racks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reversible bus switch enabling instrument-to-DUT or DUT-to-instrument data flow via DIR control. Use Value: 64 mA drive sinks scope probe capacitance; 3-state isolation prevents crosstalk when multiple instruments share common bus lines. | Use Scenario: Interfacing sensor front-end modules (ADC, signal conditioning) to a central controller in a modular DAQ chassis. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Buffered bidirectional data channel carrying configuration commands and sampled data between slots. Use Value: –40 °C to +85 °C rating ensures reliability in uncooled enclosures; low 50 μA ICC supports low-power sleep modes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT245N | DIP20 package; no IOFF; higher ICC (250 μA typical) | Not suitable for partial power-down or hot-swap systems | Select only for through-hole prototyping where IOFF is unnecessary. |
| 74LVC245APW | 3.3 V only (1.65–3.6 V); lower drive (±24 mA); no IOFF | Requires level-shifting for 5 V bus integration | Choose only for mixed-voltage 3.3 V subsystems with no 5 V legacy interface. |
Compared with SN74ABT245N and 74LVC245APW, the 74ABT245DB,118 uniquely combines 5 V operation, IOFF protection, and SO20 footprint-making it the sole option for industrial hot-plug-capable 5 V bus isolation without redesign.

FAQ
What is the function of the DIR pin on the 74ABT245DB,118?
The DIR (direction) pin is a logic-level control input that determines data flow direction between the A-side (pins 2–9) and B-side (pins 11–18) ports. When DIR = HIGH, data passes from A to B; when DIR = LOW, data flows from B to A. It operates independently of OE and remains functional even during 3-state mode.
Does the 74ABT245DB,118 support hot-plug operation?
Yes-its IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs and limits leakage to ±100 μA when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging back-current during live insertion or extraction. This, combined with 3-state control via OE, makes it certified for hot-swap applications in modular chassis and industrial backplanes.
Can the 74ABT245DB,118 interface directly with 3.3 V logic?
No-it is specified only for 4.5–5.5 V operation and features TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V). Direct connection to 3.3 V logic risks marginal VIH recognition and violates recommended operating conditions; a level translator such as TXB0108 is required for reliable 3.3 V ↔ 5 V interfacing.
What is the maximum capacitive load the 74ABT245DB,118 can drive reliably?
The device is characterized for 50 pF load capacitance in dynamic testing (Table 9), with tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.6 ns at VCC = 5.0 V. Its +64 mA sink capability supports heavier loads, but signal integrity degrades beyond 50 pF without impedance-matched termination-designers should limit trace+load capacitance to ≤50 pF for guaranteed timing compliance.
