Product details
Overview
74LVC2T45RA3-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual-bit, dual-supply translating transceiver with tri-state outputs, enabling bidirectional voltage-level translation between independent 1.2V–5.5V domains. It features separate VCC(A) and VCC(B) supplies, DIR-controlled port directionality (A↔B), ±24mA drive at 3.3V, and IOFF protection that isolates ports when either supply drops to 0V-used in mobile SoC interconnects between 1.8V application processors and 3.3V peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2T45RA3-7 datasheet, 74LVC2T45RA3-7 pinout, 74LVC2T45RA3-7 application, or 74LVC2T45RA3-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail translation range (1.2V–5.5V), 420Mbps max data rate (3.3V→5V), IOFF behavior under partial power-down, thermal resistance (133°C/W for X2-DFN1410-8), and guaranteed operation from –40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
This device implements a direction-controlled, dual-rail CMOS transceiver architecture where DIR selects whether 1A/2A act as inputs and 1B/2B as outputs (DIR = HIGH), or vice versa (DIR = LOW). Each port references its own VCC, enabling asymmetric translation-e.g., 1.8V logic on Port A to 3.3V logic on Port B-without level-shifting resistors or external bias.
IOFF circuitry actively disables all I/O paths when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) reaches 0V, limiting backflow current to ±2μA across –40°C to +125°C and supporting hot-insertion and power-gating scenarios. Input tolerance extends to 5.5V regardless of VCC level, and propagation delays are characterized down to 1.2V supply with sub-10ns typical tpLH/tpHL at 3.3V→3.3V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range (A/B) | 1.2V to 5.5V each-enables translation between any two logic domains in modern low-voltage systems without external regulators. |
| Max Data Rate | 420Mbps (3.3V→5V)-supports high-speed interface bridging such as SDIO, I²C fast-mode+, or GPIO expansion in portable devices. |
| Output Drive | ±24mA at 3.3V-drives standard CMOS loads with margin, eliminating need for buffer stages in point-to-point links. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±2μA max when either VCC = 0V-ensures electrical isolation during partial power-down, preventing bus contention or latch-up. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C-qualified for automotive cabin and industrial control environments requiring extended thermal robustness. |
| ESD Rating | 4kV HBM, 1kV CDM-meets IEC 61000-4-2 system-level ESD immunity requirements for handheld and embedded applications. |
| Package | X2-DFN1410-8 (1.4mm × 1.0mm, 0.5mm pitch)-ultra-compact footprint ideal for space-constrained mobile PCBs and wearables. |
Pinout & Package
X2-DFN1410-8 package: 1.4mm × 1.0mm body, 0.5mm lead pitch, exposed thermal pad (pin 5), moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1B | Port B Data I/O | Bidirectional signal path referenced to VCC(B); tolerates up to 5.5V input regardless of VCC(B) level. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return for both supply domains; must be low-impedance to minimize ground bounce during switching. |
| 2B | Port B Data I/O | Second bidirectional signal path on Port B; shares same VCC(B) and timing characteristics as 1B. |
| VCC(A) | Port A Supply | Power rail for 1A/2A pins and DIR input; defines logic thresholds and output swing for Port A. |
| 1A | Port A Data I/O | Bidirectional signal path referenced to VCC(A); supports 1.2V–5.5V logic levels independently of Port B. |
| 2A | Port A Data I/O | Second bidirectional signal path on Port A; electrically identical to 1A with matched delay and drive. |
| DIR | Direction Control | Active-HIGH control: HIGH enables A→B data flow; LOW enables B→A; referenced to VCC(A). |
| VCC(B) | Port B Supply | Power rail for 1B/2B pins; decoupling required near package to maintain signal integrity at high data rates. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent supply rails | VCC(A) and VCC(B) operate from 1.2V to 5.5V-eliminates need for external level shifters in mixed-voltage SoC subsystems. |
| Direction-controlled bidirectional flow | SINGLE DIR pin configures data path A→B or B→A-reduces control logic overhead vs. per-signal direction registers. |
| IOFF partial-power-down protection | Automatic high-impedance state when either VCC = 0V-prevents back-current damage and maintains signal isolation during power sequencing. |
| 5.5V-tolerant inputs | All inputs accept 0V–5.5V regardless of VCC level-simplifies interface to legacy 5V peripherals without clamping diodes. |
| Low dynamic power | 16µA max ICC at 25°C-reduces quiescent load on battery-backed or energy-harvested subsystems. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0102DCUR | TI part uses auto-direction sensing (no DIR pin); lower drive (±8mA); 1.65V–5.5V VCC range; larger X2SON-8 (1.5mm × 1.0mm). | Preferred for I²C/SMBus where direction is data-dependent; unsuitable for DIR-synchronized burst transfers like SDIO. | Select when automatic direction detection is required and drive strength >±8mA is not needed. |
| SN74AVC2T245RSWR | TI part requires external DIR control; higher drive (±12mA); 1.2V–3.6V VCC range; same X2-DFN1410-8 package. | Limited to ≤3.6V domains; lacks 5.5V input tolerance; better for cost-sensitive consumer apps with tighter voltage constraints. | Select when operating strictly within 1.2V–3.6V and 5.5V tolerance is unnecessary. |
Compared with TXS0102DCUR and SN74AVC2T245RSWR, the 74LVC2T45RA3-7 uniquely supports full 1.2V–5.5V translation on both sides, delivers ±24mA drive for marginal loads, and guarantees IOFF isolation at 0V VCC-making it optimal for automotive and industrial designs requiring wide voltage interoperability and robust power sequencing.

FAQ
Can 74LVC2T45RA3-7 translate between 1.2V and 5.0V simultaneously?
Yes. VCC(A) can be set to 1.2V while VCC(B) is set to 5.0V, enabling bidirectional translation with guaranteed VIH/VIL thresholds and 75Mbps data rate (1.2V→5.0V). Inputs tolerate up to 5.5V, so 5.0V signals applied to Port B are safe even when VCC(B) = 5.0V.
What happens to outputs when DIR is floating?
DIR is referenced to VCC(A) and has no internal pull-up/down. A floating DIR causes undefined port direction and potential bus contention. Diodes recommends tying DIR to VCC(A) or GND via a 10kΩ resistor; the datasheet specifies VIH ≥0.7×VCC(A) and VIL ≤0.3×VCC(A) for reliable operation.
Does the X2-DFN1410-8 package require solder paste stencil adjustments?
Yes. The 0.5mm pitch and 0.2mm-thick copper thermal pad demand precise stencil aperture design: 0.15mm thickness, 0.35mm × 0.35mm openings for signal pads, and 0.25mm × 0.25mm for the center thermal pad. Reflow profile must peak at 260°C for 10 seconds to ensure void-free thermal pad wetting.
How does IOFF behave if only VCC(A) is powered?
When VCC(A) = 0V and VCC(B) = 3.3V, all Port A pins (1A, 2A, DIR) enter high-impedance with ±2μA leakage; Port B remains fully functional. This allows safe isolation of the A-side logic while keeping B-side peripherals active-critical for modular power architectures in medical and test equipment.
