Product details
Overview
74LVC623ADB,118 from NXP Semiconductors is an octal non-inverting 3-state bus transceiver with dual active-low enable inputs (OEAB and OEBA), enabling bidirectional asynchronous data flow between two 8-bit buses. It operates from 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply, tolerates 5.5 V on outputs when disabled, and supports mixed-voltage interfacing between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains in industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC623ADB,118 datasheet, 74LVC623ADB,118 pinout, 74LVC623ADB,118 application, or 74LVC623ADB,118 equivalent, this device delivers deterministic bus isolation, dual-enable data latching capability, and JEDEC-compliant voltage-level translation across −40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation - critical for high-reliability embedded interconnect design.
Technical Context
The 74LVC623ADB,118 implements a dual-control transceiver architecture where OEAB enables A→B transmission and OEBA enables B→A transmission; simultaneous assertion of both enables transparent bidirectional latching. Its CMOS input structure accepts 3.3 V or 5 V logic levels while maintaining compatibility with TTL thresholds.
With 5 V-tolerant I/O, 1.2 V minimum VCC support, and guaranteed operation up to +125 °C, the device targets mixed-supply systems requiring robust level-shifting without external biasing. ESD protection exceeds HBM 2000 V, MM 200 V, and CDM 1000 V per JESD22 standards.
Key Specifications

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC623APWRE4 | TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1), identical electrical specs and pinout; 4.4 mm body width vs. 5.3 mm | Higher-density PCB layouts where footprint area is constrained; same thermal profile but lower Ptot derating threshold above 60 °C | Select when board space optimization outweighs mechanical compatibility with existing SSOP20 footprints |
| 74LVC623AD,118 | SO20 package (SOT163-1), 7.5 mm body width; otherwise identical functionality, timing, and ratings | Legacy designs requiring through-hole-compatible SOIC footprint or higher thermal mass for passive cooling | Choose for ease of rework, compatibility with SOIC sockets, or improved heat dissipation in low-airflow enclosures |
Compared with SN74LVC623APWRE4 and 74LVC623AD,118, the 74LVC623ADB,118 offers optimal balance of compactness (5.3 mm SSOP), thermal performance (5.5 mW/K derating above 60 °C), and mechanical compatibility with mid-density industrial PCBs - making it the preferred choice for new designs prioritizing size and reliability trade-offs.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for 74LVC623ADB,118?
The absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC) for 74LVC623ADB,118 is +6.5 V, but recommended operation is strictly 1.2 V to 3.6 V per Table 5. Exceeding 3.6 V risks violating JEDEC compliance and may degrade long-term reliability - always limit VCC to 3.6 V in production designs using 74LVC623ADB,118.
Can 74LVC623ADB,118 interface directly with 5 V microcontrollers?
Yes - 74LVC623ADB,118 features 5 V-tolerant inputs and outputs, allowing direct connection to 5 V logic even when powered at 1.2 V to 3.6 V. When disabled, outputs tolerate up to 5.5 V, enabling safe interfacing with 5 V peripherals without external level shifters in either direction of the 74LVC623ADB,118 transceiver.
How does the dual-enable function of 74LVC623ADB,118 enable data latching?
When both OEAB and OEBA are asserted LOW simultaneously, the 74LVC623ADB,118 enters bidirectional latching mode: each output reinforces its corresponding input, holding bus states even when all external drivers are in high-impedance. This behavior is explicitly defined in Table 3's function table and enables transparent data storage without additional flip-flops in the 74LVC623ADB,118 signal path.
What is the thermal derating behavior of 74LVC623ADB,118 above 60 °C?
For the SSOP20 package (SOT339-1), total power dissipation (Ptot) derates linearly at 5.5 mW/K above 60 °C, per Table 4 footnote [3]. At +125 °C ambient, maximum allowable Ptot drops to ~125 mW - designers must verify junction temperature using θJA and actual power draw to ensure 74LVC623ADB,118 remains within safe operating limits.
Is 74LVC623ADB,118 automotive-qualified?
No - 74LVC623ADB,118 is not automotive-qualified. While it operates across −40 °C to +125 °C, it lacks AEC-Q100 qualification, automotive-specific testing, or guaranteed PPAP documentation. For automotive applications, use only parts explicitly marked "AEC-Q100 qualified" - 74LVC623ADB,118 is intended for industrial, computing, and test equipment use cases.
