Product details
Overview
74AHCT245D,112 from Nexperia is an octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for bidirectional data transmission between two 8-bit buses. It operates at 4.5–5.5 V supply, features ±24 mA output drive, 8 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, and TTL-compatible inputs. Used in microcontroller peripheral interfacing and memory address/data bus isolation.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHCT245D,112 datasheet, 74AHCT245D,112 pinout, 74AHCT245D,112 application, or 74AHCT245D,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include voltage-level translation capability, bus direction control timing, 3-state output leakage current, and ESD robustness for industrial I/O expansion.
Technical Context
This transceiver implements dual-rail bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR (direction) and OE (output enable) pins. The device uses advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology to ensure TTL-level input thresholds and rail-to-rail CMOS output swing. Propagation delay asymmetry between A→B and B→A paths is specified at ≤1 ns under matched load conditions.
It supports hot insertion due to Ioff partial power-down protection and guarantees no bus contention during power-up/down sequencing. Input hysteresis of 0.5 V minimizes noise susceptibility on control lines in electrically noisy environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with legacy 5 V TTL and mixed-voltage system backplanes |
| Propagation Delay | 8 ns max at VCC = 5 V, CL = 50 pF - enables reliable operation up to 60 MHz bus clock rates |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA - sufficient to drive 15 LSTTL loads or terminate unterminated stubs on PCB traces |
| Input Threshold | VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V - matches standard TTL logic levels for seamless interface with 74LS/74F families |
| ESD Protection | HBM ±2 kV - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for board-level handling without additional protection circuitry |
| Ioff Current | ≤10 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents back-driving of powered buses during hot-swap or partial power-down |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in SO20 (Small Outline, 20-pin) package with 1.27 mm pitch, JEDEC MS-013AC compliant, body size 12.8 × 7.5 mm, 1.75 mm height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A7 | Data inputs/outputs (Port A) | Bidirectional I/O pins connected to first 8-bit bus; high-impedance when OE high |
| B0–B7 | Data inputs/outputs (Port B) | Bidirectional I/O pins connected to second 8-bit bus; direction determined by DIR |
| DIR | Direction control input | Low = A→B transfer; High = B→A transfer - asynchronous edge-triggered behavior not supported |
| OE | Output enable input | Active-low; forces all A/B pins into high-impedance state when high - used for bus arbitration |
| VCC | Positive supply | 5 V nominal supply connection; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of pin |
| GND | Ground reference | Signal and power ground return path; must be low-inductance connection to minimize switching noise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional bus interface | Single DIR pin controls full 8-bit data flow direction without external logic or timing constraints |
| 3-state outputs with Ioff | Prevents current backflow when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe live insertion into powered systems |
| TTL-compatible inputs | Accepts standard 0.8 V / 2.0 V thresholds - eliminates need for level-shifting buffers in 5 V legacy designs |
| Hot-swappable operation | Guaranteed no bus contention during power sequencing - critical for modular backplane architectures |
Applications
| Microcontroller Bus Expansion | Memory Address/Data Isolation |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Expanding GPIO count of an ARM Cortex-M4 MCU to drive multiple parallel peripherals (LCD, ADC, FPGA). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional data bridge between MCU's native 8-bit data port and extended peripheral bus.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AHCT245N | DIP-20 package; 10 ns max tPD vs. 8 ns for SO20 version; same electrical specs | Suitable for through-hole prototyping or legacy repair; higher parasitic inductance limits >40 MHz use | Select for hand-soldered evaluation or field repair where SOIC rework is impractical |
| 74LVC245AD,118 | 1.65–3.6 V supply range; lower drive (±24 mA only at 3.3 V); different input thresholds | Required for mixed-voltage 3.3 V/5 V systems with level translation; not 5 V tolerant without external resistors | Choose when interfacing with modern low-voltage FPGAs or SoCs where 5 V operation is unnecessary |

FAQ
Can 74AHCT245D,112 operate at 3.3 V?
No. The 74AHCT245D,112 is specified only for 4.5–5.5 V operation. At 3.3 V, input thresholds become undefined and output drive falls below specification. For 3.3 V systems, consider the 74LVC245AD,118 or 74ALVC245PW,118, which are explicitly characterized down to 1.65 V.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
The 74AHCT245D,112 is characterized up to 50 pF load capacitance with 8 ns typical propagation delay. Driving >70 pF increases delay nonlinearly and may cause setup/hold violations in synchronous systems. For heavier loads, add series termination or reduce trace length.
Does DIR pin require pull-up or pull-down resistors?
Yes. The DIR pin has no internal bias; floating states cause undefined direction control and potential bus contention. A 10 kΩ pull-down resistor ensures default A→B mode at power-on; pull-up sets B→A. OE should also be actively driven or pulled low.
Is this part suitable for hot-plug applications?
Yes. The Ioff specification guarantees ≤10 µA leakage when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-powering of live buses. Combined with bus-hold and power-up 3-state, it meets requirements for modular backplane hot-swap per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2.
