Product details

Overview

74LVC16245APAG8 from Renesas Electronics (formerly IDT) is a 3.3V CMOS 16-bit bus transceiver with 3-state outputs and 5V-tolerant I/O, designed for bidirectional asynchronous data transfer between two busses (A and B). It supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), offers ±24mA output drive, <1ns output skew, and operates across VCC = 2.7V–3.6V - enabling use in mixed 3.3V/5V systems such as telecom backplanes.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC16245APAG8 datasheet, 74LVC16245APAG8 pinout, 74LVC16245APAG8 application, or 74LVC16245APAG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include 5V-tolerant I/O compatibility, dual 8-bit or unified 16-bit configuration flexibility, hot-insertion support, low static power (0.4μW typ.), and SSOP-48 package suitability for high-density PCB layouts.

Technical Context

This device implements a dual-rail CMOS transceiver architecture with independent direction (DIR) and output enable (OE) controls per 8-bit section, allowing reconfiguration as either two 8-bit or one 16-bit transceiver. All inputs feature hysteresis (100mV typ.) for noise immunity, and I/O pins tolerate 0–5.5V regardless of VCC level.

It uses advanced dual-metal CMOS process to achieve high-speed switching (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4ns at VCC = 3.3V) while maintaining low dynamic power (CPD = 38pF per enabled transceiver). The ±24mA drivers support moderate-to-heavy capacitive loads without signal degradation.

Key Specifications

ParameterValue and Actual Design Meaning
VCC Range2.7V to 3.6V - ensures robust operation across wide supply tolerance in industrial environments
Output Drive±24mA - drives up to 50pF load at full speed without external buffers

Applications

Telecom Backplane InterfaceMixed-Voltage Microcontroller Expansion

Use Scenario: Bidirectional data routing between 3.3V FPGA-based line cards and legacy 5V switch fabric ASICs in carrier-grade routers.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-translating bus transceiver managing asynchronous parallel address/data transfers with sub-4ns propagation delay.

Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete level shifters while preserving signal integrity across 16-bit parallel buses operating at >50MHz burst rates.

Use Scenario: Expanding GPIO and memory-mapped peripheral interface of an ARM Cortex-M7 MCU (3.3V I/O) to legacy 5V sensors and displays.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Direction-controlled bidirectional data bridge enabling read/write access to external 5V SRAM and LCD controllers.

Use Value: Supports hot-pluggable sensor modules via 5V-tolerant I/O and prevents system lockup during insertion with built-in hot-insertion logic.

Industrial PLC I/O ModuleAutomotive Diagnostic Gateway

Use Scenario: Isolating and translating control signals between 3.3V microcontroller and 5V relay driver banks in programmable logic controller racks.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 3-state-enabled bus isolator providing galvanically separated communication path with fast disable (<6.6ns tPHZ).

Use Value: Enables deterministic fault containment: OE assertion forces all outputs to high-Z within 7ns, preventing spurious actuation during firmware updates.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
SN74LVC16245ADGGRSame electrical specs; 48-pin TSSOP but TI's package variant (DGGR) has different moisture sensitivity level (MSL3 vs MSL1 for PAG8)Identical functional role; requires requalification for humidity-sensitive manufacturing linesPreferred where TI supply chain integration or existing TI design reuse is prioritized
74ALVC16245PW,118NXP part with identical pinout and 5V tolerance, but higher ICCZ (20μA vs 10μA) and no hysteresis on inputsSuitable for non-noisy environments; lacks noise margin for industrial EMI-prone settingsSelect only when lower cost outweighs need for hysteresis and ultra-low standby current

Compared with SN74LVC16245ADGGR and 74ALVC16245PW,118, the 74LVC16245APAG8 delivers superior noise immunity (100mV hysteresis), tighter output skew (<1ns), and lower quiescent current (10μA), making it optimal for high-reliability industrial and telecom infrastructure designs where signal integrity and power efficiency are critical.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the 74LVC16245APAG8?

The 74LVC16245APAG8 does not specify a maximum clock frequency because it is an asynchronous transceiver. Its timing performance is defined by propagation delay (≤4ns at VCC = 3.3V) and output skew (<1ns), enabling reliable operation in burst-mode parallel buses exceeding 100MHz effective data rates when paired with appropriate layout and termination.

Does the 74LVC16245APAG8 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on DIR or OE pins?

No - the 74LVC16245APAG8 features internal weak pull-downs on DIR and OE inputs, eliminating need for external biasing. However, for deterministic startup behavior in systems with floating control lines, external 10kΩ pull-downs are recommended to ensure known initial state before firmware initialization.

Can the 74LVC16245APAG8 be used to translate between 1.8V and 3.3V logic levels?

No - the 74LVC16245APAG8 is not rated for 1.8V VCC operation. Its specified VCC range is 2.7V–3.6V. While its I/O pins tolerate 0–5.5V, the core logic requires ≥2.7V to guarantee correct internal switching thresholds and timing compliance. For 1.8V translation, consider LVC162245 or ALVC variants explicitly characterized at 1.8V.

Is the 74LVC16245APAG8 pin-compatible with earlier IDT 74LVC16245A versions in SSOP packages?

Yes - the 74LVC16245APAG8 shares identical pinout, function mapping, and AC/DC specifications with IDT's original 74LVC16245A in TSSOP-48 (PAG) packaging. Renesas maintains full backward compatibility, including identical thermal and electrical behavior, ensuring drop-in replacement in legacy designs.

What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the 74LVC16245APAG8 in its TSSOP-48 package?

The 74LVC16245APAG8 in TSSOP-48 (PAG) package has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 65°C/W under standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions (1-inch² copper pad, 2oz Cu). This value assumes no additional heatsinking; actual θJA may vary based on PCB layout, airflow, and adjacent component power dissipation.
