Product details
Overview
74AC16245DLR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit dual-octal noninverting bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous two-way data communication between parallel buses in industrial and embedded systems. It operates from 3 V to 5.5 V, delivers ±24 mA output drive at 5 V, supports bidirectional flow via DIR control, and features isolation capability when OE is high.
For engineers reviewing the 74AC16245DLR datasheet, 74AC16245DLR pinout, 74AC16245DLR application, or 74AC16245DLR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin SSOP (DL) package, –40°C to 85°C temperature range, 3-state bus isolation timing (tPZL up to 18 ns at 5 V), and compatibility with Widebus™-optimized PCB layouts requiring distributed VCC/GND pins.
Technical Context
The 74AC16245DLR implements dual-octal transceiver logic with independent direction (DIR) and output-enable (OE) controls per octet, enabling simultaneous A→B and B→A data paths under separate control. Its EPIC™ CMOS process ensures latch-up immunity of 500 mA at 125°C and supports high-speed switching with distributed power/ground pins minimizing noise.
It uses flow-through pin architecture-inputs on one side, outputs on the opposite-to simplify trace routing and reduce signal crosstalk. All 48 pins are assigned to I/O, VCC, or GND; no dedicated logic supply or reference pins are present, and unused inputs must be tied high or low per TI's recommended operating conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3 V to 5.5 V - Enables interoperability with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at VCC = 5 V - Sufficient to drive 50-pF loads across 10–15 cm PCB traces in backplane or motherboard applications. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL = 2–7.9 ns at 5 V - Supports data rates up to ~125 MHz in point-to-point bus configurations. |
| 3-State Enable Time | tPZL = 3–10.7 ns at 5 V - Ensures fast bus release for time-critical arbitration or multiplexed memory access. |
| Input Leakage | ±1 µA max at VCC = 5.5 V - Allows reliable operation with weak pull-ups/pull-downs and reduces static power in standby modes. |
| Power Dissipation | 1.2 W max (DL package, still air) - Requires minimal thermal relief on standard FR-4; no heatsink needed below 100 kHz toggle rate. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - Qualified for industrial-grade embedded controllers, PLC I/O modules, and test equipment. |
Pinout & Package
74AC16245DLR is housed in a 48-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP), designated DL by Texas Instruments, with 0.025-inch (0.635 mm) center-to-center pin pitch and 380-mil body width. The package features exposed thermal pad-less construction and is RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 24, 25, 48 | VCC | Distributed power supply pins - placed at corners and midpoints to minimize IR drop and high-frequency impedance in wide-bus layouts. |
| 4, 6, 9, 11, 14, 16, 19, 22, 27, 29, 32, 34, 37, 39, 42, 44 | GND | Distributed ground returns - paired with VCC pins to form local decoupling loops and suppress simultaneous switching noise. |
| 1DIR, 2DIR (Pins 1, 24) | Direction Control Input | Active-High logic selects A→B (DIR = H) or B→A (DIR = L); enables independent bidirectional control per octet group. |
| 1OE, 2OE (Pins 2, 23) | Output Enable Input | Active-Low logic disables all 8 outputs in respective octet; high state forces 3-state (high-Z) output regardless of DIR or data. |
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 (Pins 47, 46, 44, 43, 41, 40, 38, 37, 36, 35, 33, 32, 30, 29, 27, 26) | Octet A Inputs/Outputs | Bidirectional I/O ports - function as inputs when DIR/OE configure B→A path, outputs when configured A→B. |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 (Pins 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19, 20, 22, 23) | Octet B Inputs/Outputs | Complementary bidirectional I/O ports - mirror A-side behavior with independent DIR/OE control per octet. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flow-through pin architecture | Input and output pins located on opposite sides of package - eliminates layer jumps and vias in dense bus routing. |
| Distributed VCC/GND configuration | 16 total power/ground pins interleaved across package - reduces simultaneous switching noise by >15 dB vs. single-supply packages. |
| EPIC™ 1-µm CMOS process | 500-mA latch-up immunity at 125°C - enables robust operation in electrically noisy industrial environments without external protection. |
| Widebus™ family compatibility | Pin- and function-compatible with other TI Widebus transceivers (e.g., 74AC16244, 74AC16373) - simplifies design reuse and BOM consolidation. |
| 3.3 V / 5 V mixed-voltage support | Valid VIH/VIL thresholds across 3–5.5 V supply - allows direct interfacing with both LVCMOS and TTL logic families without translators. |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Bus | Memory Address Buffering |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional data transfer between CPU and peripheral cards in modular PLC chassis using parallel 16-bit address/data multiplexed bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-octal transceiver isolates card-local buses during arbitration and enables hot-swap-safe address latching. Use Value: tPZL ≤ 10.7 ns at 5 V ensures sub-12 ns bus release, meeting 80 ns minimum turnaround time for ISA-compatible cycles. |
Use Scenario: Driving 16-bit address lines from microcontroller to multiple SRAM/Flash devices sharing common address bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Noninverting buffer with 3-state outputs prevents contention when multiple memory chips are selected sequentially. Use Value: ±24 mA drive strength sustains signal integrity across 100 mm daisy-chained address traces with 50 pF load per segment. |
| Test Equipment Data Acquisition | Legacy System Interfacing |
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-tolerant bus interface providing voltage translation and bus isolation without external resistors. Use Value: VIH = 1.65 V min at VCC = 3.3 V accepts TTL-high signals directly; VOL ≤ 0.44 V ensures clean low-level recognition by 3.3 V receivers. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74AC16244DLR | Noninverting octal buffer (unidirectional); no DIR input; 16 outputs only (no B-side I/O). | Suitable for fixed-direction address/data buffering where bidirectional flow is unnecessary. | Select when system requires only A→B or B→A path, not both - reduces control logic complexity and saves board space. |
| SN74LVC16245ADGGR | 3.3 V-only operation (1.65–3.6 V); lower drive (±24 mA @ 3.3 V); smaller 48-pin TSSOP package. | Optimized for low-power portable or battery-operated systems; not compatible with 5 V buses. | Choose for new 3.3 V designs prioritizing power efficiency and footprint; avoid if 5 V tolerance or mixed-voltage operation is required. |
Compared with 74AC16245DLR, the 74AC16244DLR removes bidirectional capability but simplifies control and reduces propagation delay by ~15%; the SN74LVC16245ADGGR cuts active power by 60% at 3.3 V but sacrifices 5 V interoperability and latch-up immunity.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for the 74AC16245DLR?
The 74AC16245DLR supports a supply voltage range of 3 V to 5.5 V. Absolute maximum rating is 7 V, but operation above 5.5 V violates recommended conditions and risks parametric failure or reduced reliability. TI specifies VOH/VOL, drive strength, and timing only within the 3–5.5 V range.
Does the 74AC16245DLR support hot-swap or live-insertion?
The 74AC16245DLR does not include built-in hot-swap protection circuitry. However, its 500-mA latch-up immunity and robust 3-state isolation (tPZL ≤ 18 ns) enable safe use in hot-pluggable backplanes when combined with external current-limiting and sequencing controls per TI Application Report SCBA005.
How many independent 3-state control groups does the 74AC16245DLR have?
The 74AC16245DLR has two independent 3-state control groups: one for pins 1A1–1A8/1B1–1B8 (controlled by 1OE), and another for pins 2A1–2A8/2B1–2B8 (controlled by 2OE). Each group can be enabled or disabled separately, allowing partial bus isolation without affecting the other octet.
Can the 74AC16245DLR interface directly between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains?
Yes - the 74AC16245DLR operates natively from 3 V to 5.5 V and accepts input voltages up to VCC + 0.5 V. When powered at 3.3 V, it recognizes 5 V TTL-high inputs (VIH ≥ 2.0 V), and when powered at 5 V, its outputs swing rail-to-rail, safely driving 3.3 V inputs with appropriate current limiting if required.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the 74AC16245DLR in its DL package?
Texas Instruments does not publish θJA for the DL package in the SCAS235A datasheet. However, based on its 1.2 W maximum power dissipation rating at TA = 55°C in still air and typical DL package geometry, θJA is estimated at ≈ 105°C/W. For precise thermal modeling, TI recommends using the thermal simulation data in their Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics application report.
