Product details

Overview

74ALVC245PW,112 from Nexperia is an octal 3-state bus transceiver with bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and output enable (OE) inputs. It operates from 1.65 V to 3.6 V, features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, and includes IOFF circuitry for partial power-down protection. Used in voltage-level translation between 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V logic domains in industrial control backplanes and FPGA I/O expansion interfaces.

For engineers reviewing the 74ALVC245PW,112 datasheet, 74ALVC245PW,112 pinout, 74ALVC245PW,112 application, or 74ALVC245PW,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin TSSOP package, -40 °C to +125 °C temperature rating, 3.4 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V, and IOFF-enabled hot-swap capability in mixed-voltage systems.

Technical Context

This transceiver implements dual-bus bidirectional data transfer using a single DIR signal to set direction (A→B or B→A) and an active-low OE to place all outputs in high-impedance state. Its CMOS architecture ensures low static power consumption while maintaining TTL-compatible input thresholds across supply voltages.

Schmitt-trigger inputs tolerate slow-rising signals up to 10 ns/V slew rate (at VCC ≥ 2.7 V), and the IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current during power sequencing - critical for live-insertion systems and multi-rail power management.

Key Specifications

Applications

Industrial PLC BackplaneFPGA I/O Expansion

Use Scenario: Isolating CPU-side and field-I/O-side data buses in modular programmable logic controllers with independent 2.5 V and 3.3 V power domains.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional bus bridge enabling real-time register read/write between processor and isolated I/O modules; DIR synchronized to address decode, OE managed by bus arbitration logic.

Use Value: Eliminates discrete level shifters while supporting hot-swap of I/O modules via IOFF protection during power cycling.

Use Scenario: Extending limited FPGA GPIO count to drive multiple peripheral interfaces (SPI, UART, parallel sensors) operating at different voltage levels.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-translating I/O expander; DIR selects FPGA-to-peripheral or peripheral-to-FPGA data flow; OE gates bus access during configuration or error recovery.

Use Value: Enables single FPGA design to support 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V peripherals without custom I/O banks or external translators.

Automotive Body Control ModuleTest Equipment Signal Routing

Use Scenario: Interfacing microcontroller (3.3 V) with legacy LIN transceivers and sensor clusters (5 V tolerant but 3.3 V–compatible) in body electronics units.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-adapting bus transceiver; DIR set statically for unidirectional sensor reads; OE dynamically controlled during CAN/LIN message framing to avoid bus contention.

Use Value: Meets AEC-Q100 stress requirements for extended temperature operation and provides IOFF safety during battery disconnect events.

Use Scenario: Reconfigurable signal path routing in automated test equipment where DUT I/O voltage standards vary across product families.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Programmable bus coupler; DIR and OE driven by test controller FPGA to establish signal paths between instrument channels and DUT pins on-demand.

Use Value: Reduces fixture complexity by replacing mechanical relays with solid-state switching; 3.4 ns delay ensures timing-critical measurements remain within jitter budgets.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice

FAQ

What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74ALVC245PW,112 in a synchronous bus application?

The device does not have a clock input; it is asynchronous. Its 3.4 ns maximum propagation delay at 3.3 V implies usable data rates up to ~294 MHz in point-to-point configurations with matched trace lengths and proper termination. Real-world bus throughput depends on system-level timing margins, including setup/hold times of connected devices and PCB interconnect delays.

Can the 74ALVC245PW,112 safely interface a 1.8 V microcontroller with a 3.3 V peripheral without external level-shifting components?

Yes. Its overvoltage-tolerant inputs accept up to 3.6 V regardless of VCC, and its output VOH/VOL specs meet 3.3 V logic thresholds when VCC = 3.3 V. When VCC = 1.8 V, outputs swing to ~1.6 V (VOH) and ~0.2 V (VOL), which are compatible with most 3.3 V receivers' VIH/VIL windows - confirmed by static characterization tables.

How does the IOFF feature behave during power sequencing when VCC ramps from 0 V to nominal?

IOFF activates automatically when VCC drops below ~0.8 V, disabling all outputs and limiting back-current to ±10 μA maximum. During power-up, outputs remain in high-impedance until VCC exceeds the minimum functional threshold (~1.5 V), preventing bus contention. This behavior is verified across -40 °C to +125 °C per JEDEC JESD78 testing.

Is the exposed thermal pad on the TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1) electrically connected or required to be soldered?

No. The exposed pad is not electrically connected to any internal node and has no electrical or mechanical requirement for soldering. If soldered, the land must remain floating or be connected to GND - doing so improves thermal dissipation by ~15 % but is optional per Nexperia's package documentation (SOT360-1 drawing).
