Product details
Overview
74LVC2T45DC-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade dual-supply bidirectional voltage-level translating transceiver in VSSOP8 package, supporting 1.2 V to 5.5 V on both A and B ports, enabling interoperability between 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V logic domains. It features 3-state outputs, IOFF partial power-down protection, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for under-hood automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 datasheet, 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 pinout, 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 application, or 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail translation capability, suspend-mode high-impedance behavior during power loss, bus hold functionality (in LVCH variant), and guaranteed timing across -40 °C to +125 °C with ≤23.5 ns max tPLH at 1.5 V/1.5 V.
Technical Context
This device implements a direction-controlled, dual-port bidirectional translation architecture where DIR input selects data flow direction: HIGH enables A→B, LOW enables B→A. Both ports operate independently with separate VCC(A) and VCC(B) supplies, each referenced to its own supply rail - nA and DIR to VCC(A), nB to VCC(B).
IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) is at GND, preventing backflow current and ensuring safe partial power-down operation. In suspend mode, both A and B ports enter high-impedance OFF-state regardless of DIR state, meeting automotive system-level power sequencing requirements.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LXC2T45QPWRQ1 | TI part with identical 2-bit dual-supply architecture, same VCC range (1.2–5.5 V), but higher ICC (max 20 μA vs. 16 μA) and no bus hold | Lacks active bus hold; requires external pull resistors in floating-bus scenarios | Select when lower static current is critical and bus hold is managed externally |
| 74LVCH2T45DC-Q100 | Same Nexperia footprint and pinout, but includes active bus hold circuitry (IBHL/IBHH ≥100 μA at 4.5 V) and slightly higher ICC (max 32 μA) | Enables direct connection to unterminated buses; eliminates need for external biasing in low-pin-count modules | Select when interfacing to un-driven or intermittently connected signals (e.g., diagnostic test points, modular connectors) |
Compared with SN74LXC2T45QPWRQ1, the 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 offers lower quiescent current and AEC-Q100 documentation traceability; compared with 74LVCH2T45DC-Q100, it trades bus hold capability for reduced ICC and lower cost in fixed-configuration designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between VCC(A) and VCC(B)?
The datasheet permits any combination within 1.2 V to 5.5 V per rail, including ΔVCC up to 4.3 V (e.g., VCC(A) = 1.2 V, VCC(B) = 5.5 V). No derating is required, and all timing and drive specifications remain valid across this full differential range per Table 6 and Table 12.
Does the 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 support hot insertion?
Yes - IOFF circuitry ensures outputs enter high-impedance state when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) is at 0 V, limiting backflow current to ±2 μA max. This enables safe live insertion into powered-backplane systems such as automotive domain controllers with staggered power-up sequences.
Can DIR be driven from a different voltage domain than VCC(A)?
No - DIR is strictly referenced to VCC(A); its VIH/VIL thresholds scale with VCC(A) (e.g., VIH = 0.65×VCC(A) for 1.4–1.95 V operation). Driving DIR from VCC(B) or another rail violates absolute maximum ratings and may cause undefined logic states or latch-up.
Is there a version with integrated ESD protection beyond HBM 4000 V?
No - the 74LVC2T45DC-Q100 provides HBM >4000 V and CDM >1000 V per JS-001/JS-002, which exceeds AEC-Q100 stress test requirements. For systems requiring IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 (8 kV contact), external TVS diodes remain necessary; Nexperia does not offer a factory-enhanced ESD variant of this part number.
