Product details
Overview
74LVC245AD-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, direction control (DIR), and active-low output enable (OE). It operates from 1.2 V to 3.6 V, tolerates 5.5 V inputs, supports mixed-voltage translation between 3.3 V and 5 V systems, and features IOFF partial power-down protection. Used in automotive body control modules for bidirectional data bus isolation.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC245AD-Q100 datasheet, 74LVC245AD-Q100 pinout, 74LVC245AD-Q100 application, or 74LVC245AD-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (-40 °C to +125 °C), 5.5 V overvoltage-tolerant inputs, IOFF-enabled safe power sequencing, Schmitt-trigger input noise immunity, and SO20 package compatibility with legacy PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This transceiver implements dual-bus bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and OE signals: DIR selects direction (A→B or B→A), while OE enables/disables all outputs into high-impedance state. The IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current during partial power-down sequences common in automotive domain controllers.
Schmitt-trigger inputs ensure robust operation with slow-rising signals (e.g., from mechanical switches or LIN bus peripherals), and 5.5 V tolerance allows direct interfacing with legacy 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting. Bus hold functionality is absent in the 74LVC245A variant (present only in 74LVCH245A), confirming this part relies on external termination or system-level pull resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - Enables operation across low-power MCU domains (1.8 V) and standard 3.3 V logic rails. |
| Input voltage tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - Allows direct connection to 5 V peripherals without external clamping or translators. |
| Propagation delay (VCC = 3.3 V) | Max 6.3 ns - Supports >80 MHz data throughput in synchronous bus applications. |
| IOFF leakage (VCC = 0 V) | ±20 μA - Limits backfeed current during hot-swap or multi-rail power sequencing. |
| ESD rating (HBM) | >2000 V - Meets automotive board-level ESD robustness requirements per ISO 10605. |
| Operating temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and powertrain ECUs. |
| Output drive strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - Sufficient to drive 15 pF loads with 10 ns rise/fall times across full temp range. |
Pinout & Package
74LVC245AD-Q100 uses the SO20 (SOT163-1) package: plastic small outline, 20 leads, 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 index located at top-left corner with notch or dot marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction control input | LOW routes data from A-side to B-side; HIGH routes from B-side to A-side - enables bidirectional bus arbitration. |
| 2–9 (A0–A7) | Port A data I/O | 8-bit bidirectional data port; inputs when DIR selects A→B, outputs when DIR selects B→A. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal logic and I/O - must be low-inductance connection in automotive PCBs. |
| 11–18 (B0–B7) | Port B data I/O | 8-bit bidirectional data port; complementary to A-port - forms full 16-pin transceiver interface. |
| 19 (OE) | Output enable (active LOW) | Drives all outputs to high-impedance when HIGH - enables bus sharing among multiple devices. |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | Core logic and I/O supply - decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm of pin per automotive layout rules. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for -40 °C to +125 °C operation - certified for engine control, transmission, and ADAS domain controllers. |

FAQ
Is 74LVC245AD-Q100 compatible with 5 V TTL inputs?
Yes - its inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level (1.2 V to 3.6 V), enabling direct interface with 5 V TTL outputs without external level shifters. Input thresholds scale with VCC (e.g., VIH = 2.0 V min at VCC = 3.3 V), ensuring reliable recognition of TTL HIGH/LOW states.
What is the maximum capacitive load this transceiver can drive reliably?
At VCC = 3.3 V and Tamb = 125 °C, it drives 24 mA with VOL ≤ 0.55 V into a 15 pF load, supporting typical PCB trace + connector capacitance. For heavier loads (>30 pF), propagation delay increases to 8.0 ns max and output rise/fall times degrade - use series termination or reduce trace length.
Does this device include bus hold circuitry?
No - bus hold (IBHL/IBHH) is exclusive to the 74LVCH245A-Q100 variant. The 74LVC245AD-Q100 lacks internal weak pull-up/pull-down on data pins, requiring external termination resistors or system-level biasing for floating-input stability in automotive harness environments.
How does IOFF protection function during battery disconnect scenarios?
When VCC drops below 0.2 V, the IOFF circuit disables all outputs, limiting backfeed current to ±20 μA even if 5 V remains present on A/B pins. This prevents reverse current flow into a powered-down domain, protecting downstream regulators and meeting ISO 16750-2 transient load-dump survivability requirements.
