Product details
Overview
74LV245D,118 from Nexperia is an octal 3-state bus transceiver with bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and active-low OE pins, operating across 1.0 V to 5.5 V supply, supporting TTL-level inputs at VCC ≥ 2.7 V, and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C ambient temperature - used in voltage-level bridging between mixed-voltage microcontroller buses and peripheral interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74LV245D,118 datasheet, 74LV245D,118 pinout, 74LV245D,118 application, or 74LV245D,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include its wide VCC range (1.0–5.5 V), guaranteed operation down to 1.0 V, 3-state output control timing (tdis ≤ 24 ns at 3.3 V), and SO20 package compatibility with legacy 74-series board layouts.
Technical Context
The 74LV245D implements CMOS-based bidirectional bus buffering with separate direction (DIR) and output enable (OE) control logic. Its input clamping diodes allow safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when current-limiting resistors are used.
Functional behavior is defined by three states: DIR = L enables A→B data flow; DIR = H enables B→A flow; OE = H forces all outputs into high-impedance OFF-state regardless of DIR. Propagation delay ranges from 7 ns (VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 15 pF) to 45 ns (VCC = 1.2 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - supports direct interface with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay | 7 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 15 pF - enables reliable operation in high-speed parallel bus systems up to ~70 MHz. |
| Output Enable Time | 10 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V - ensures fast bus arbitration and multi-master contention resolution. |
| Input Voltage Thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min at VCC = 2.7–3.6 V; VIL = 0.8 V max - guarantees TTL-compatible recognition at 3.3 V supply. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - provides robust handling during PCB assembly and field service without external protection. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules, industrial PLC backplanes, and extended-temperature embedded controllers. |
| Power Dissipation | CPD = 40 pF at VCC = 3.3 V - enables accurate dynamic power estimation (PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N) for thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
74LV245D,118 is housed in a plastic small outline package (SO20, SOT163-1) with 20 leads, 7.5 mm body width, and standard 1.27 mm lead pitch - compatible with IPC-7351B SOIC-20 land patterns and wave/reflow soldering profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction control input | LOW enables data flow from A-side (pins 2–9) to B-side (pins 11–18); HIGH reverses direction. |
| 2–9 (A0–A7) | Port A I/O terminals | Bidirectional data lines tied to one bus segment; internally connected to transceiver core via DIR-controlled switches. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal circuitry and I/O current; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| 11–18 (B0–B7) | Port B I/O terminals | Bidirectional data lines tied to second bus segment; function mirrors A-side based on DIR state. |
| 19 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Logic HIGH disables all outputs into high-impedance state; essential for bus sharing and hot-swap isolation. |
| 20 (VCC) | Supply voltage input | Primary power rail; supports 1.0–5.5 V operation; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide VCC range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V operation - eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing 1.2 V SoCs to 5 V peripherals. |
| TTL input compatibility | Accepts TTL logic levels at VCC = 2.7–3.6 V - allows direct connection to legacy 5 V TTL outputs without pull-up resistors or buffers. |
| Clamp diode protection | Integrated input clamp diodes - permits safe overvoltage tolerance (e.g., 5 V signals into 3.3 V domain) when series resistors limit current to <20 mA. |
| Low ground bounce | Typical <0.8 V at VCC = 3.3 V - reduces switching noise coupling into analog sections and improves signal integrity on shared PCB planes. |
| JEDEC compliance | Meets JESD8-7 (1.65–1.95 V), JESD8-5 (2.3–2.7 V), JESD8C (2.7–3.6 V), JESD36 (4.5–5.5 V) - ensures interoperability across industry-standard voltage domains. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal 3-state bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC245APWR | Lower VCC min (1.65 V), higher ICC max (50 mA), TSSOP20 only - no SO20 option. | Optimized for 1.8 V/3.3 V systems; lacks 1.0–1.2 V support and automotive temp grade. | Select when operating exclusively above 1.65 V and requiring tighter propagation delay variation (±0.5 ns vs ±2 ns). |
| 74ALVC245MTCX | Faster tpd (5.2 ns typ at 3.3 V), but narrower VCC (2.3–3.6 V), no 1.0 V support, and -40 °C to +85 °C only. | Suitable for high-speed 3.3 V-only designs; not viable for mixed-voltage or extended-temp use cases. | Choose only if system requires <6 ns delay and operates strictly within 2.3–3.6 V at commercial temperatures. |
Compared with SN74LVC245APWR and 74ALVC245MTCX, the 74LV245D,118 uniquely supports 1.0 V operation and full -40 °C to +125 °C qualification in SO20 packaging - making it the sole choice for ultra-low-voltage industrial and automotive bus bridging where legacy footprint and extended voltage/temp margins are mandatory.

FAQ
Can the 74LV245D,118 operate reliably at 1.0 V supply?
Yes - the device is fully specified and tested down to VCC = 1.0 V per JEDEC JESD8-7, with guaranteed functionality including input recognition, output drive strength, and propagation delay (45 ns max). Static characteristics such as VIH/VIL and VOH/VOL remain valid at this minimum supply, though timing margins tighten.
What is the maximum capacitive load the 74LV245D,118 can drive while maintaining timing specs?
The datasheet specifies dynamic performance at CL = 15 pF (for VCC = 3.0–3.6 V) and CL = 50 pF (for VCC = 1.2–2.7 V and ≥4.5 V). At 3.3 V, tpd remains ≤9 ns up to 15 pF; beyond that, delay increases linearly - e.g., ~12 ns at 30 pF. Output drive capability (±8 mA at VOL/VOH) supports loads up to ~40 pF with acceptable signal integrity.
Does the 74LV245D,118 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on DIR or OE?
No - DIR and OE have CMOS-compatible input structure with negligible leakage (<1 μA). However, OE must be actively driven LOW to enable outputs; leaving it floating risks undefined output states. For fail-safe operation, tie OE to GND via a 10 kΩ resistor if controlled by an open-drain driver, or use a dedicated GPIO with strong drive.
How does the 74LV245D,118 handle input voltages exceeding VCC?
Internal clamp diodes on all inputs allow safe operation with VI up to VCC + 0.5 V, provided input current is limited to ±20 mA. For example, applying 5 V to an A-input while VCC = 3.3 V is permissible with a 220 Ω series resistor (I ≈ 7.7 mA), preventing latch-up and ensuring long-term reliability per JESD78 Class II Level B.
