Product details
Overview
74AVCH4T245D,118 from Nexperia is a 4-bit dual-supply translating transceiver enabling bidirectional level translation between independent voltage domains (0.8 V to 3.6 V). It operates as two 2-bit or one 4-bit transceiver with direction control (nDIR), output enable (nOE), and active bus hold on all I/O pins. Used in mixed-voltage SoC interconnects, FPGA I/O bridging, and DDR memory interface voltage adaptation.
For engineers reviewing the 74AVCH4T245D,118 datasheet, 74AVCH4T245D,118 pinout, 74AVCH4T245D,118 application, or 74AVCH4T245D,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include configurable VCC(A)/VCC(B) supply independence, IOFF-enabled partial power-down, suspend-mode high-impedance isolation, and guaranteed 380 Mbit/s data rate for ≥1.8 V ↔ 3.3 V translation.
Technical Context
The device implements dual-rail CMOS logic with separate input-reference domains: nAn/nDIR/nOE referenced to VCC(A), nBn referenced to VCC(B). Direction control is synchronous and non-latched - transmission path is determined solely by nDIR state at data transition time.
IOFF circuitry activates when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) = 0 V, forcing both A- and B-side outputs into high-impedance OFF-state while maintaining bus hold on the powered side. Bus hold strength scales with supply voltage (e.g., ±100 μA at 3.0 V, ±25 μA at 1.65 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | VCC(A): 0.8 V–3.6 V; VCC(B): 0.8 V–3.6 V - enables translation across 0.8/1.2/1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V nodes without external level shifters |
| Max Data Rate | 380 Mbit/s - achievable only for ≥1.8 V ↔ 3.3 V translation; drops to 100 Mbit/s for 1.1 V ↔ 1.2 V |
| Propagation Delay | nAn→nBn: 2.9 ns min / 9.1 ns max (VCC(A)=3.3 V, VCC(B)=3.3 V, -40°C to +125°C) - determines minimum clock period in synchronous interfaces |
| Bus Hold Current | ±100 μA at 3.0 V - eliminates need for external pull-up/down resistors on floating I/O lines |
| IOFF Leakage | ±5 μA max per port at 3.6 V - ensures safe backflow prevention during partial power-down |
| ESD Rating | HBM >8000 V, CDM >1000 V - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements without additional protection circuitry |
| Operating Temp | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and telecom infrastructure applications |
Pinout & Package
74AVCH4T245D,118 uses SO16 (SOT109-1) package: plastic small outline, 16-pin, 3.9 mm body width, standard gull-wing leads.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC(A) | Supply for A-side inputs (nAn, nDIR, nOE); defines logic thresholds for A-port control signals |
| 2,3 | 1DIR, 2DIR | Direction control inputs - HIGH enables A→B, LOW enables B→A; referenced to VCC(A) |
| 4–7 | 1A1,1A2,2A1,2A2 | A-side bidirectional data terminals - connect to lower-voltage domain (e.g., 1.2 V processor I/O) |
| 8,9 | GND | Common ground reference for both supply domains; both pins must be connected |
| 10–13 | 2B2,2B1,1B2,1B1 | B-side bidirectional data terminals - connect to higher-voltage domain (e.g., 3.3 V peripheral bus) |
| 14,15 | 2OE, 1OE | Active-low output enable - disables both A- and B-side drivers simultaneously; referenced to VCC(A) |
| 16 | VCC(B) | Supply for B-side inputs (nBn); defines logic thresholds for B-port data signals |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent supply rails | VCC(A) and VCC(B) operate independently from 0.8 V to 3.6 V - supports heterogeneous voltage domain interconnect without level-shifter ICs |
| IOFF partial power-down | Automatically disables outputs and blocks backflow current when either VCC is at GND - essential for hot-swap and sleep-mode system design |
| Active bus hold | Internal weak pull-up/pull-down holds unused I/O at valid logic level - removes need for 10 kΩ external resistors and saves PCB space |
| Suspend mode operation | Both A- and B-side outputs enter high-Z when either VCC = 0 V, while bus hold remains active on powered side - prevents floating-bus contention |
| JEDEC compliance | Meets JESD8-12 through JESD8-B standards - ensures interoperability with industry-standard low-voltage logic families |
Applications
| Processor-to-Peripheral Bridge | FPGA I/O Voltage Adaptation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply translating transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Texas Instruments SN74AVCH4T245PW | Same logic function and pinout; TSSOP16 package (SOT403-1); 0.65 mm lead pitch vs SO16's 1.27 mm | Higher board density but requires finer-pitch reflow profile; identical electrical specs and temperature range | Select for space-constrained layouts where SO16 footprint is prohibitive |
| ON Semiconductor NTB0102DT | 2-bit dual-supply translator; no direction control - auto-sensing based on voltage differential; different pinout and control scheme | Limited to 2-bit applications; unsuitable for bidirectional protocols requiring explicit DIR signaling (e.g., SPI, parallel buses) | Select only for simple uni-directional or auto-direction I²C/SMBus applications where DIR pin is unnecessary |
Compared with SN74AVCH4T245PW, the 74AVCH4T245D,118 offers identical functionality in a more manufacturable SO16 package; versus NTB0102DT, it provides deterministic direction control and full 4-bit bandwidth required for parallel data buses and FPGA I/O expansion.

FAQ
Can 74AVCH4T245D,118 translate between 0.8 V and 3.6 V simultaneously?
Yes - VCC(A) and VCC(B) may be set independently within 0.8 V to 3.6 V. When VCC(A) = 0.8 V and VCC(B) = 3.6 V, the device translates signals bidirectionally with guaranteed timing (tpd ≤ 9.1 ns max at -40°C to +125°C) and IOFF protection if either rail powers down.
What happens to bus hold behavior when one supply is at 0 V?
In suspend mode (VCC(A) = 0 V or VCC(B) = 0 V), bus hold remains active only on the powered side. For example, if VCC(A) = 0 V and VCC(B) = 3.3 V, bus hold functions on B-side pins (1B1–2B2) but is inactive on A-side pins, which float in high-impedance state.
Is the 74AVCH4T245D,118 pin-compatible with older 74LVC4T245 variants?
No - although both are 4-bit translators, 74AVCH4T245D,118 uses different pin mapping: nDIR/nOE are on pins 2–3/14–15, whereas 74LVC4T245 places DIR on pin 1 and OE on pin 16. Electrical compatibility does not imply mechanical or layout compatibility.
Does the device support hot insertion when VCC(B) is powered before VCC(A)?
Yes - IOFF circuitry activates immediately upon detection of VCC(A) = 0 V while VCC(B) is active, placing A-side outputs in high-impedance and blocking backflow current. This allows safe hot-plug of 3.3 V peripherals into a powered 1.2 V host system.
