Product details
Overview
74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-bit dual-supply bus transceiver enabling bidirectional voltage translation between 1.2V–3.6V domains (e.g., 1.8V ↔ 3.3V), with 3-state outputs, bus-hold circuitry, and Ioff partial-power-down support. It operates across –40°C to 85°C and delivers up to 500Mbps data rate in 1.8V-to-3.3V translation.
For engineers reviewing the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 datasheet, 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 pinout, 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 application, or 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCCA/VCCB supply independence, DIR input referenced to VCCA, 4.6V I/O tolerance, bus-hold elimination of external resistors, and SC70-6 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The device implements a fully configurable dual-rail architecture where A-port logic levels track VCCA (1.2V–3.6V) and B-port levels track VCCB (1.2V–3.6V), enabling asynchronous bidirectional translation without direction-dependent voltage constraints. DIR control is strictly referenced to VCCA, decoupling direction logic from B-side supply conditions.
VCC isolation forces outputs into high-impedance when either VCCA or VCCB is at GND, while bus-hold maintains valid logic states on undriven A/B inputs-eliminating need for external pull resistors. Ioff circuitry limits leakage to ±5μA during partial power-down, supporting system-level power sequencing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range (VCCA / VCCB) | 1.2V to 3.6V each - enables translation across 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V logic domains |
| Max Data Rate | 500Mbps (1.8V ↔ 3.3V) - supports high-speed interconnect in low-voltage SoC interfaces |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 4.6V - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage signals without level-shifting front-end |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±100μA (at VCCA = 3.3V) - actively sustains logic state on floating inputs, removing external bias components |
| Ioff Leakage | ±5μA (VCCA = 0V or VCCB = 0V) - prevents backflow current during partial power-down, protecting powered rails |
| Propagation Delay (A→B) | 0.2ns typical (VCCA = VCCB = 3.3V) - ensures timing-critical signal integrity in high-frequency data paths |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±2000V - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements for handling and board assembly |
Pinout & Package
74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 uses the SC70-6 (DCK) package: 2.00mm × 1.25mm body, 0.65mm pitch, 6-pin surface-mount footprint optimized for high-density routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCA | A-port supply rail | Reference for A-port I/O and DIR input; sets VIH/VIL thresholds for direction control |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for both supply domains; required for stable bus-hold and Ioff operation |
| A | Bidirectional I/O (A side) | Data terminal referenced to VCCA; supports 4.6V tolerance and bus-hold functionality |
| VCCB | B-port supply rail | Reference for B-port I/O only; independent of VCCA, enabling asymmetric voltage translation |
| DIR | Direction control input | Logic level referenced to VCCA; high = A→B, low = B→A; no internal pullup/pulldown required |
| B | Bidirectional I/O (B side) | Data terminal referenced to VCCB; supports 4.6V tolerance and bus-hold functionality |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-rail voltage translation | Independent 1.2V–3.6V supplies on A and B ports enable flexible interface bridging without external regulators |
| Integrated bus-hold | Eliminates need for external pullup/pulldown resistors on A/B lines, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| VCC isolation | Outputs enter high-Z if either VCCA or VCCB is grounded - prevents contention during power sequencing |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Blocks current flow between powered/unpowered rails, enabling safe hot-swap and low-power standby modes |
| SC70-6 NanoStar™ package | 2.00mm × 1.25mm footprint supports miniaturized designs in portable and wearable electronics |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1T45DCKR | Single-supply (1.65V–5.5V), no dual-rail capability; DIR referenced to VCC; no bus-hold | Requires matched VCC for both sides; unsuitable for asymmetric voltage translation or floating-bus scenarios | Select when only single-rail translation is needed and external pull resistors are acceptable |
| TXS0101DCKR | Auto-direction sensing (no DIR pin); lower drive strength (±2mA vs ±12mA); no Ioff | Eliminates direction-control wiring but lacks power-down isolation; not suitable for partial-power-down systems | Select for simple push-pull buses where direction is data-driven and full power-down isn't required |
Compared with SN74LVC1T45DCKR and TXS0101DCKR, the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 uniquely combines dual-rail flexibility, bus-hold, Ioff, and 500Mbps performance - making it the only option for robust, low-component-count translation in mixed-voltage, power-gated embedded systems.

FAQ
What voltage ranges does the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 support on its A and B ports?
The 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 supports independent supply voltages from 1.2V to 3.6V on both VCCA and VCCB. This enables translation between any combination of 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V logic domains - for example, 1.8V A-port to 3.3V B-port or vice versa. The DIR input is always referenced to VCCA, not VCCB.
Does the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 require external pullup or pulldown resistors on its A and B pins?
No. The 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 integrates active bus-hold circuitry on both A and B I/O pins, which maintains valid logic states on undriven or floating inputs. TI explicitly advises against using external pull resistors with this feature - doing so may interfere with bus-hold operation and degrade noise immunity.
How does the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 behave when one supply rail is powered down?
When either VCCA or VCCB is at GND, the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 activates VCC isolation: all outputs enter high-impedance state regardless of DIR or input states. Bus-hold remains active on the powered side, preventing floating nodes. This behavior is critical for safe power sequencing in multi-rail systems.
What is the maximum data rate supported by the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 in common voltage translations?
The 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 achieves up to 500Mbps in 1.8V ↔ 3.3V translation, 320Mbps for <1.8V ↔ 3.3V or ↔ 2.5V/1.8V, 280Mbps ↔ 1.5V, and 240Mbps ↔ 1.2V. These rates reflect guaranteed timing performance under recommended operating conditions, not theoretical limits.
Is the 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 compatible with the SC70-6 (DCK) package footprint used by other TI logic devices?
Yes. The 74AVCH1T45DCKRG4 uses the standardized SC70-6 (DCK) package: 2.00mm × 1.25mm body, 0.65mm lead pitch, and identical pad layout to TI's SN74LVC1T45DCKR and SN74AUP1T45DCKR. This enables drop-in replacement in existing SC70-6 layouts - provided voltage and feature requirements align.
