Product details
Overview
74LVC2T45GM,125 from Nexperia is a dual-bit, dual-supply translating transceiver with 3-state outputs enabling bidirectional level translation between independent voltage domains (1.2 V to 5.5 V). It features two 2-bit I/O ports (A and B), a direction control input (DIR), IOFF partial power-down protection, and operates across –40 °C to +125 °C. Used in mixed-voltage FPGA-to-processor interconnects requiring seamless 1.8 V ↔ 3.3 V data transfer.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2T45GM,125 datasheet, 74LVC2T45GM,125 pinout, 74LVC2T45GM,125 application, or 74LVC2T45GM,125 equivalent, this device supports high-speed bidirectional translation in space-constrained industrial controllers, automotive domain ECUs, and battery-powered IoT sensor hubs where supply rail isolation and suspend-mode leakage control are critical.
Technical Context
The device implements true dual-supply architecture: port A and DIR are referenced to VCC(A); port B to VCC(B). A HIGH on DIR enables A→B transmission; LOW enables B→A. Both supplies operate independently across 1.2 V–5.5 V, supporting JEDEC-compliant voltage translation standards (JESD8-7, JESD8-5, JESD8C, JESD36).
IOFF circuitry disables outputs when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) = 0 V, preventing backflow current and placing both ports in high-impedance OFF-state during suspend mode. The 74LVC2T45 variant lacks bus-hold; active bus-hold is exclusive to the 74LVCH2T45 family member.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC(A) Range | 1.2 V to 5.5 V - Enables direct interface with 1.2 V/1.5 V/1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V/5.0 V logic domains on port A side. |
| VCC(B) Range | 1.2 V to 5.5 V - Independent bias for port B, allowing asymmetric translation (e.g., 1.8 V MCU ↔ 3.3 V peripheral). |
| Max Data Rate | 420 Mbps (3.3 V → 5.0 V) - Supports high-throughput serial links like I²C fast-mode plus or low-latency GPIO expansion. |
| tPLH / tPHL | As low as 0.7 ns (VCC(A)=5.0 V, VCC(B)=5.0 V) - Ensures timing closure in sub-ns clock-domain crossing paths. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±2 μA max at –40 °C to +125 °C - Guarantees safe hot-swap and partial power-down without damaging back-current. |
| ICC Supply Current | 16 μA max (all ports idle) - Enables ultra-low-power operation in always-on sensor interface nodes. |
| ESD Rating | HBM >4000 V, CDM >1000 V - Meets industrial-grade robustness requirements for board-level handling and field reliability. |
Pinout & Package
XSON8 package (SOT1116): extremely thin small outline, no leads, 1.2 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.35 mm body, 8 terminals, wettable flank compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2B | Port B data I/O (bidirectional, referenced to VCC(B)) - connects to 3.3 V UART RX line in mixed-rail subsystems. |
| 2 | 1B | Port B data I/O (bidirectional, referenced to VCC(B)) - interfaces with 2.5 V ADC digital output bus. |
| 3 | VCC(B) | Supply for port B - must be decoupled locally; powers internal B-port logic and output drivers. |
| 4 | DIR | Direction control input (referenced to VCC(A)) - HIGH = A→B, LOW = B→A; TTL-compatible threshold at VCC(A). |
| 5 | 2A | Port A data I/O (bidirectional, referenced to VCC(A)) - connects to 1.8 V FPGA GPIO bank. |
| 6 | 1A | Port A data I/O (bidirectional, referenced to VCC(A)) - links to 1.2 V ASIC control register output. |
| 7 | VCC(A) | Supply for port A and DIR - independent of VCC(B); enables rail isolation in multi-domain SoM designs. |
| 8 | GND | Digital ground reference - shared return path for both supply domains; requires low-inductance PCB connection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent supply rails | VCC(A) and VCC(B) each support 1.2 V–5.5 V - eliminates need for external level-shifter ICs in heterogeneous voltage systems. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Outputs disable automatically if either VCC drops to GND - prevents back-driving and latch-up during firmware update or sleep transitions. |
| 3-state output control | DIR-driven bidirectional enable with guaranteed high-Z state - allows shared bus arbitration without external tri-state logic. |
| Wide temperature range | Specified from –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial PLC backplanes. |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 2–4 pF (VCC = 1.8–5.0 V) - minimizes switching current in high-frequency data paths, reducing thermal load in dense layouts. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial PLC I/O Expansion |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AVC2T245RSWR | TI part uses single VCCA/VCCB supply pins but lacks IOFF; max VCC = 3.6 V; lower ESD (2000 V HBM). | Not suitable for 5.0 V translation or hot-swap scenarios requiring IOFF protection. | Select only for cost-sensitive 1.8 V ↔ 3.3 V applications where suspend-mode leakage is non-critical. |
| TXS0102DCUR | TI auto-direction-sensing translator; no DIR pin; open-drain outputs; max 3.3 V VCC; no IOFF. | Cannot replace DIR-controlled bidirectional use cases; unsuitable for push-pull bus topologies. | Choose only for I²C/SMBus translation where automatic direction detection is required and 5 V tolerance is unnecessary. |

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 = 4.3 V (e.g., VCC(A) = 1.2 V, VCC(B) = 5.5 V). No derating is required, and all DC and dynamic specifications remain valid across the full range, confirmed in Tables 6 and 12–13.
Can the 74LVC2T45GM,125 be used without pull-up or pull-down resistors on the DIR pin?
Yes. DIR has TTL-compatible input thresholds referenced to VCC(A), with VIH ≥ 0.65×VCC(A) and VIL ≤ 0.35×VCC(A) across all operating voltages. Direct connection to a GPIO or logic gate output is sufficient; external biasing is unnecessary unless noise immunity in high-EMI environments is required.
Does this device support hot insertion when one supply is powered and the other is off?
Yes. The IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) = 0 V, limiting leakage to ±2 μA max over temperature. This prevents back-current flow and satisfies IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD survivability during live insertion, as verified in Section 8 (Limiting Values) and Table 10.
How does propagation delay vary with supply voltage asymmetry?
Propagation delay is asymmetric: tPLH/tPHL from A→B depends primarily on VCC(A), while B→A depends on VCC(B). For example, with VCC(A) = 3.3 V and VCC(B) = 1.8 V, A→B delay is ~5.3 ns, but B→A delay is ~9.0 ns (Table 9). Designers must verify timing margins separately for each direction using worst-case min/max values from Table 12.
