Product details
Overview
74ALVC245D,112 from Nexperia is an octal 3-state bus transceiver with bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and active-low OE pins, operating across 1.65 V to 3.6 V supply, featuring IOFF partial power-down protection, Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C in SO20 (SOT163-1) package. It enables level-shifting and bus isolation in high-density digital systems such as industrial PLC I/O modules.
For engineers reviewing the 74ALVC245D,112 datasheet, 74ALVC245D,112 pinout, 74ALVC245D,112 application, or 74ALVC245D,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.6 V overvoltage-tolerant inputs, 2.3 ns typical propagation delay at 3.3 V, IOFF-enabled hot-swap capability, and compatibility with both TTL and CMOS logic families in mixed-voltage board designs.
Technical Context
The device implements dual-bus bidirectional data transfer via a single DIR control line and independent 3-state output enable (OE), supporting simultaneous A→B or B→A directionality without internal latching. Its IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current during partial power-down sequences.
Schmitt-trigger inputs ensure robust operation with slow-rising signals (≥10 ns/V transition rate supported), while static input thresholds scale with VCC (VIH = 0.65×VCC min at 1.65 V; 2.0 V min at 3.6 V) and output drive meets ±24 mA at 3.0 V - enabling direct interface with legacy 5 V TTL loads via level translation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - supports single-supply operation across 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V logic domains without external level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay | 2.3 ns typical (VCC = 3.0–3.6 V) - enables reliable timing in high-speed parallel buses up to ~200 MHz clock-equivalent data rates. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±10 μA max at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during hot-insertion or staggered power sequencing in modular systems. |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 3.6 V - ensures clean recognition of TTL-compatible logic levels while maintaining CMOS low-power operation. |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at VOH ≥ 2.2 V / VOL ≤ 0.55 V (VCC = 3.0 V) - directly drives 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple 74-series inputs without buffering. |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - withstands handling and board-level ESD events common in industrial assembly environments. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive ECUs, motor drives, and industrial controllers without derating. |
Pinout & Package
74ALVC245D,112 uses the SO20 plastic small outline package (SOT163-1), 20-pin, 7.5 mm body width, with standard 1.27 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 index located at top-left corner with notch marking.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DIR | Direction control: HIGH enables B→A data flow; LOW enables A→B - determines signal path polarity for bidirectional bus arbitration. |
| 2–9 | A0–A7 | Port A data I/O: connects to microcontroller GPIO or ASIC side; inputs when DIR = LOW, outputs when DIR = HIGH. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference: primary 0 V return for all internal logic and output drivers - must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| 11–18 | B0–B7 | Port B data I/O: connects to peripheral bus or memory side; inputs when DIR = HIGH, outputs when DIR = LOW. |
| 19 | OE | Output enable (active LOW): asserts 3-state when HIGH; enables driving when LOW - used for bus contention avoidance. |
| 20 | VCC | Supply voltage: powers all internal logic and output stages - requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| IOFF Partial Power-down | Blocks reverse current when VCC = 0 V - enables safe insertion/removal in live-backplane systems without disrupting adjacent powered rails. |
| Schmitt-trigger Inputs | 250 mV hysteresis typical - rejects noise on slow-rising control lines (e.g., reset, enable) in electrically noisy industrial enclosures. |
| Overvoltage-Tolerant Inputs | Withstand up to 3.6 V regardless of VCC setting - allows interfacing with higher-voltage peripherals without external clamping diodes. |
| TTL-Compatible Outputs | VOH ≥ 2.4 V / VOL ≤ 0.4 V at 3.3 V supply - directly drives legacy 74LS/74ALS loads without level-shifting components. |
| Wide Temp Range Support | Specified from -40 °C to +125 °C - eliminates need for thermal derating in sealed enclosures or high-ambient motor control applications. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Automotive Body Control Unit |

| Test Equipment Backplane | Programmable Logic Carrier Board |
|
Use Scenario: Modular test system where FPGA-based measurement cards plug into a central backplane with shared address/data/control lines. IC Role / Device Role: Hot-plug-safe bus isolator ensuring no backfeed occurs when card is inserted/removed while backplane remains powered. Use Value: IOFF leakage <10 μA at VCC = 0 V prevents false triggering or latch-up in adjacent powered modules during card swap operations. |
Use Scenario: FPGA carrier board hosting multiple mezzanine modules (ADC, DAC, sensor interfaces) sharing a common parallel configuration bus. IC Role / Device Role: Direction-controlled bus repeater allowing host FPGA to read/write module registers while preventing bus contention during multi-drop access. Use Value: 3-state outputs with <1 ns enable/disable skew allow deterministic bus arbitration cycles within 25 ns windows - critical for real-time register polling. |

FAQ
Can 74ALVC245D,112 operate with VCC = 1.8 V while interfacing with 3.3 V inputs?
Yes. Its overvoltage-tolerant inputs accept up to 3.6 V regardless of VCC setting, and VIH is specified at 0.65×VCC (1.17 V min at 1.8 V), ensuring reliable recognition of 3.3 V logic HIGH. Output VOH at 1.8 V is 1.25 V min, sufficient to drive downstream 1.8 V receivers.
What is the maximum capacitive load the outputs can drive while maintaining timing specs?
The datasheet specifies dynamic characteristics with 30 pF (1.65–2.7 V) or 50 pF (2.7–3.6 V) loads. At 3.3 V, tpd remains ≤3.4 ns with 50 pF, confirming compatibility with standard PCB traces and multiple CMOS inputs. Exceeding 50 pF increases propagation delay nonlinearly and may require series termination.
Does the IOFF feature require external biasing or control signals?
No. IOFF is fully automatic: when VCC drops to 0 V, internal circuitry forces all outputs into high-impedance state without any action required on DIR or OE. This behavior is guaranteed across -40 °C to +125 °C and requires no external components or firmware intervention.
How does the Schmitt-trigger input improve reliability in noisy factory environments?
Schmitt-trigger inputs provide ~250 mV hysteresis, rejecting transient noise spikes below that threshold. In industrial settings with relay switching or motor commutation, this prevents false edge detection on DIR or OE control lines - eliminating spurious bus direction changes or unintended 3-state activation.
