Product details
Overview
74ALVCH16841DGGS from Nexperia is a 20-bit bus interface D-type latch with dual 10-bit sections, 3-state non-inverting outputs, active bus hold on all inputs, and independent latch enable (nLE) and output enable (nOE) controls. It operates from 1.2 V to 3.6 V, delivers ±24 mA drive at 3.0 V, and supports industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C). It is used in high-density data bus buffering and level translation between mixed-voltage subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the 74ALVCH16841DGGS datasheet, 74ALVCH16841DGGS pinout, 74ALVCH16841DGGS application, or 74ALVCH16841DGGS equivalent, key selection criteria include bus hold functionality eliminating external resistors, TSSOP56 package pin compatibility with MULTIBYTE™ flow-through architecture, propagation delay ≤3.9 ns at 3.3 V, and JEDEC-compliant voltage thresholds for TTL interfacing.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent 10-bit transparent D-type latches, each with dedicated data inputs (1D0–1D9, 2D0–2D9), latch enable (1LE/2LE), and output enable (1OE/2OE) control. Latch operation is edge-triggered on nLE LOW-to-HIGH transition, while nOE controls high-impedance state without affecting internal register contents.
The integrated bus hold circuitry maintains valid logic levels on unused inputs using ±75 μA to ±175 μA current at VCC = 3.0 V, eliminating need for external pull resistors. Output drive is specified for 50 Ω transmission lines up to 85 °C, with static VIH/VIL thresholds compliant to JESD8-5 (2.3–2.7 V) and JESD8B/JESD36 (2.7–3.6 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - Enables direct interface across 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | ≤3.9 ns at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V - Supports high-speed bus timing in DDR memory interfaces and FPGA I/O expansion. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - Sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines directly, reducing signal integrity margin loss. |
| Bus Hold Current | IBHH = −175 μA / IBHL = +150 μA at VCC = 3.0 V - Actively holds floating inputs at valid logic levels, removing need for 10 kΩ pull-up/down resistors. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +85 °C - Qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems including programmable logic controllers and motor drives. |
| Input Transition Rate | ≥10 ns/V at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V - Ensures reliable sampling of fast-rising/falling signals without metastability in synchronous bus capture. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - Meets robustness requirements for automated PCB assembly and field-replaceable module handling. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP56 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT364-1), 56-pin, body width 6.1 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, 1.2 mm max height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts with low inductance via multiple VCC/GND pins (4× VCC, 8× GND).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1D0–1D9, 2D0–2D9 (pins 2–3, 5–6, 8–10, 12–14, 40–45, 47–56) | Data inputs | All 20 inputs feature bus hold; no external biasing required for unused lines in partial-bus configurations. |
| 1Q0–1Q9, 2Q0–2Q9 (pins 2–3, 5–6, 8–10, 12–14, 15–17, 19–21, 23–24, 26–27) | 3-state non-inverting outputs | Outputs enter high-impedance state when respective nOE is HIGH; latch contents preserved during disable. |
| 1LE, 2LE (pins 56, 29) | Latch enable (active-HIGH) | Transparent latch behavior: data passes through when nLE = HIGH; captured on falling edge of nLE. |
| 1OE, 2OE (pins 1, 28) | Output enable (active-LOW) | Independent control per 10-bit section; enables time-multiplexed bus sharing without data corruption. |
| VCC (pins 7, 22, 35, 50) | Supply voltage | Four distributed power pins minimize IR drop and supply noise in high-speed switching applications. |
| GND (pins 4, 11, 18, 25, 32, 39, 46, 53) | Ground reference | Eight ground pins reduce ground bounce and improve signal integrity for simultaneous switching outputs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MULTIBYTE™ flow-through pinout | Input/output pairs aligned across package width - simplifies PCB routing and reduces trace length mismatch in parallel bus layouts. |
| Active bus hold on all 20 data inputs | Eliminates need for 20 external pull resistors, saving board space and BOM cost while improving reliability against floating node failures. |
| Low-inductance power distribution | 4× VCC and 8× GND pins minimize supply impedance - critical for maintaining stable logic thresholds during 20-output simultaneous switching. |
| JEDEC-compliant voltage thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min at VCC = 2.7–3.6 V - ensures interoperability with legacy TTL and 3.3 V CMOS without level-shifting circuitry. |
| 3.3 V compatible 50 Ω line drive | Validated output drive into 50 Ω loads at 85 °C - supports point-to-point and stubbed transmission line topologies in industrial backplanes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 20-bit bus latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ALVTH16835DGGR | Higher drive (±32 mA), but no bus hold; requires external pull resistors on unused inputs. | Preferred where higher fanout is needed and board space permits discrete biasing components. | Select when driving longer traces or heavier capacitive loads beyond 50 pF, accepting added BOM complexity. |
| 74LVC16373ADGG | Narrower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); lacks bus hold; lower drive (±24 mA only at VCC ≥ 3.0 V). | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer designs where ambient temperature stays within 0–70 °C. | Choose only if operating exclusively above 1.65 V and bus hold is not required for system reliability. |
Compared with SN74ALVTH16835DGGR and 74LVC16373ADGG, the 74ALVCH16841DGGS uniquely combines bus hold, wide 1.2–3.6 V operation, and industrial temperature range - making it the sole option for unbuffered, mixed-voltage, high-reliability bus interfaces without design compromises.

FAQ
Does the 74ALVCH16841DGGS require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
No. All 20 data inputs integrate active bus hold circuitry, providing ±75 μA to ±175 μA holding current at 3.0 V to maintain valid logic levels without external components. This eliminates BOM cost and PCB area for pull resistors while improving system reliability during power-up, hot-swap, or partial bus usage.
What is the maximum guaranteed propagation delay at 3.3 V supply?
The maximum guaranteed propagation delay (tpd) from input to output is 3.9 ns at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V, measured under recommended conditions with 50 pF load. This value is specified across the full industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C) and ensures timing closure in 100 MHz synchronous bus designs.
Can the two 10-bit sections operate independently with different timing controls?
Yes. Section 1 (1D0–1D9, 1Q0–1Q9, 1LE, 1OE) and Section 2 (2D0–2D9, 2Q0–2Q9, 2LE, 2OE) have fully independent control inputs. Each section can be latched and enabled/disabled separately, enabling time-multiplexed bus access, staggered data capture, or isolated subsystem interfacing without cross-talk.
Is the 74ALVCH16841DGGS qualified for automotive applications?
No. The device is specified for industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C) and carries no AEC-Q100 qualification. Nexperia explicitly states non-automotive qualification in its legal disclaimers. For automotive use, consult Nexperia's automotive-grade alternatives such as the 74ALVCH16835-Q100 series.
