Product details
Overview
74HCT245D-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade octal bidirectional 3-state bus transceiver in SO20 (SOT163-1) package, featuring TTL-compatible inputs, direction control (DIR), active-low output enable (OE), and operation from -40 °C to +125 °C at 4.5–5.5 V supply. It enables data flow between two 8-bit buses in microcontroller-based body control modules, infotainment interconnects, and ADAS sensor interface subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT245D-Q100 datasheet, 74HCT245D-Q100 pinout, 74HCT245D-Q100 application, or 74HCT245D-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, 12 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, ±6 mA drive strength, 3.5 pF input capacitance, and SO20 thermal profile for under-hood ECU designs.
Technical Context
The device implements non-inverting bidirectional data transfer between two 8-bit parallel buses using a single DIR signal to select direction (A→B or B→A) and an active-low OE to place all outputs in high-impedance state. Its TTL-level input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 5 V) ensure compatibility with legacy 5 V logic families.
Internal clamp diodes on all inputs allow safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors. The SO20 package (SOT163-1) provides 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch, and 109 °C thermal derating threshold with 12.3 mW/K power dissipation slope above that temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across automotive battery voltage fluctuations including cold-crank conditions. |
| Propagation Delay | 12 ns typical (An↔Bn, VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF) - Supports 40+ MHz bus clock rates in CAN/LIN gateway interfaces. |
| Output Drive | ±6 mA at VOH/VOL - Sufficient to drive 10 LS-TTL loads or terminate short PCB traces without external buffers. |
| Input Capacitance | 3.5 pF - Minimizes capacitive loading on upstream drivers, preserving signal integrity in high-speed routing. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for engine bay, transmission control, and front-end radar module environments. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Grade 1 - Meets automotive reliability requirements for mission-critical electronic systems per ISO/TS 16949. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - Reduces risk of field failure during handling and assembly in Tier 1 production lines. |
Pinout & Package
74HCT245D-Q100 uses the SO20 plastic small outline package (SOT163-1), 20-pin, 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm pitch, with gull-wing leads and standard pin 1 index marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DIR | Direction control input: HIGH enables B→A data flow; LOW enables A→B flow. |
| 2–9 | A0–A7 | Port A bidirectional data terminals - connect to microcontroller or ASIC data bus side A. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference (0 V) - must be low-inductance connection to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| 11–18 | B0–B7 | Port B bidirectional data terminals - connect to peripheral bus, memory, or sensor interface side B. |
| 19 | OE | Active-low output enable: LOW enables transceiver; HIGH forces all A/B pins into high-Z state. |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply input (4.5–5.5 V) - requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible inputs | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at 5 V - Enables direct interface with legacy 5 V MCU GPIOs without level shifters. |
| Clamp diode protection | Integrated input clamping diodes - permits safe overvoltage tolerance up to ±20 mA with external series resistors. |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 30 pF - Limits switching power to <1.5 mW at 10 MHz with 15 pF load, reducing thermal load in dense ECUs. |
| High noise immunity | Typical 400 mV noise margin at 5 V - Maintains robust operation in electrically noisy vehicle cabins and powertrain zones. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1, -40 °C to +125 °C - Validated for 15-year service life in safety-relevant body electronics applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT245PW-Q100 | TSSOP20 (SOT360-1) package, 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch - lower profile, higher thermal resistance (10.0 mW/K derating). | Better suited for space-constrained infotainment modules where board area is critical but thermal margin is adequate. | Select when footprint reduction outweighs need for SO20's mechanical robustness and solder joint inspection capability. |
| 74LVC245APW-Q100 | 3.3 V-only operation (1.65–3.6 V), LVCMOS inputs, 3.5 ns propagation delay, 24 mA drive - not TTL-compatible. | Targeted at modern 3.3 V automotive SoCs; incompatible with 5 V MCU interfaces without additional level translation. | Choose only for new 3.3 V domain designs requiring higher speed and lower power; not a drop-in replacement for 74HCT245D-Q100. |
Compared with 74HCT245PW-Q100, the D-package offers superior mechanical stability and AOI-friendly gull-wing leads for high-reliability under-hood use; versus 74LVC245APW-Q100, it retains essential 5 V TTL interoperability at the cost of slightly higher propagation delay and static current.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum supply voltage is +7.0 V, but recommended continuous operation is limited to 4.5–5.5 V per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 specifications. Exceeding 5.5 V risks violating input/output voltage limits and may trigger latch-up under transient conditions, especially at elevated temperatures.
Can 74HCT245D-Q100 interface directly with 3.3 V logic devices?
No - its TTL-compatible inputs require ≥2.0 V for HIGH recognition, and outputs swing rail-to-rail (0–5.5 V), making direct connection to 3.3 V-only receivers unsafe without series resistors or level-shifting circuitry. For mixed-voltage systems, external termination or dedicated translators are required.
How does the DIR pin behave during power-up sequencing?
DIR has no internal pull-up/down; it must be actively driven to a defined logic level before VCC stabilizes. Leaving DIR floating during power-up may cause undefined bus direction and transient contention. A 10 kΩ pull-down resistor to GND ensures default A→B flow and prevents metastability.
Is the SO20 package compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes - the SOT163-1 package is qualified for standard JEDEC J-STD-020D lead-free reflow, with peak temperature up to 260 °C for 30 seconds. Its gull-wing leads support automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder fillets, ensuring process control in automotive manufacturing lines.
