Product details
Overview
74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and output enable (OE), 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply operation, 5.5 V tolerant inputs, and integrated bus hold on all data inputs. It enables level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V domains in automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 datasheet, 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 pinout, 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 application, or 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include IOFF-enabled partial power-down capability, Schmitt-trigger input tolerance for slow-rising signals, DHVQFN20 package with side-wettable flanks for AOI, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (-40 °C to +125 °C), and bus hold functionality unique to the LVCH variant.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-bus, direction-controlled transceiver architecture with independent OE and DIR logic inputs. All eight data I/Os feature bus hold circuitry (LVCH variant only), eliminating external pull resistors on floating buses. The IOFF circuit actively disables outputs during power-down, blocking backflow current when VCC = 0 V.
Schmitt-trigger inputs provide hysteresis (typ. 0.3 V at VCC = 3.3 V), enabling robust operation with slow-edge microcontroller GPIO or legacy 5 V logic. Propagation delay is specified down to 1.5 ns (min) at VCC ≥ 3.0 V, with output skew limited to 1.5 ns across all eight channels.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - supports single-supply operation across low-voltage MCUs and mixed-voltage systems |
| Input voltage tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows direct interface with 5 V peripherals without level-shifting components |
| Propagation delay (tpd) | 1.5 ns (min) to 8.0 ns (max) at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V - ensures timing compliance in high-speed automotive serial buses |
| Bus hold current | ±60 μA to ±75 μA at VCC = 3.0 V - maintains valid logic state on un-driven data lines without external biasing |
| IOFF leakage | ±20 μA max at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap or partial power-down sequences |
| ESD rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets automotive board-level ESD robustness requirements |
| Ambient temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and cabin ECUs |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN20 package (SOT764-1): 2.5 × 4.5 × 0.85 mm body, no leads, side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection of solder joints, thermal-enhanced construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction control input | LOW enables A→B data flow; HIGH enables B→A - determines signal path direction synchronously with OE |
| 2–9 (A0–A7) | Data port A I/O | Bidirectional bus segment A; features bus hold and 5.5 V tolerant inputs - connects to MCU or ASIC data bus |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path; internal die substrate connection - must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 11–18 (B0–B7) | Data port B I/O | Bidirectional bus segment B; identical electrical specs to A-side - interfaces with sensor cluster or display subsystem |
| 19 (OE) | Output enable (active LOW) | LOW enables transceiver outputs; HIGH forces all A/B pins into high-impedance - used for bus arbitration and power gating |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | 1.2–3.6 V core supply; powers internal logic and I/O buffers - decoupling capacitor required within 5 mm |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bus hold on all data inputs | Maintains last-valid logic state on A0–A7 and B0–B7 when un-driven - eliminates need for 10 kΩ external pull-up/down resistors |
| IOFF partial power-down | Outputs disabled and leakage limited to ±20 μA when VCC = 0 V - enables safe hot-plug operation in modular automotive architectures |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Input hysteresis ≥ 0.3 V at VCC = 3.3 V - rejects noise on long PCB traces or cable-connected sensors without external filtering |
| DHVQFN20 with side-wettable flanks | Enables automated optical inspection of solder joint quality on bottom terminals - improves manufacturing yield in automotive SMT lines |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for -40 °C to +125 °C operation with lifetime reliability testing - meets functional safety requirements for ASIL-B systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC245ABQ-Q100 | No bus hold; lower ICC (0.1 μA typ); identical pinout and timing | Lacks bus state retention on floating lines - requires external pull resistors in un-driven configurations | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for bus hold and system-level BOM simplification is not required |
| SN74LVC8T245RHLR | TSSOP20 package; higher drive strength (32 mA); non-automotive grade (industrial temp only) | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; lacks IOFF and bus hold - unsuitable for automotive power-gated domains | Use only in non-automotive industrial control where extended temperature range is not mandatory |
Compared with 74LVC245ABQ-Q100 and SN74LVC8T245RHLR, the 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, bus hold, and IOFF in a thermally enhanced DHVQFN20 package - making it the sole option for automotive applications requiring both functional safety and hardware-level bus stability without external components.

FAQ
What is the function of the DIR pin on the 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100?
The DIR (direction) pin controls bidirectional data flow: when DIR = LOW, data passes from port A (pins 2–9) to port B (pins 11–18); when DIR = HIGH, data flows from port B to port A. This logic-level control operates independently of OE and is sampled synchronously with input transitions, enabling deterministic bus arbitration in real-time automotive networks.
Does the 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 support partial power-down operation?
Yes - its IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs and limits leakage to ±20 μA when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging back-current from live buses into a powered-down domain. This is validated per AEC-Q100 stress tests and enables safe integration in automotive modules with staggered power sequencing, such as gateway ECUs managing multiple voltage domains.
How does bus hold functionality benefit automotive designs?
Bus hold maintains the last-valid logic state on all A0–A7 and B0–B7 pins when un-driven, eliminating the need for external 10 kΩ pull-up/down resistors. In automotive applications like seat occupancy sensors or LIN slave interfaces, this reduces BOM count, PCB area, and failure points - especially critical where vibration or thermal cycling could degrade discrete resistor solder joints.
Can the 74LVCH245ABQ-Q100 interface directly with 5 V TTL logic?
Yes - all inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.2–3.6 V), and outputs drive to VOH ≥ 2.2 V and VOL ≤ 0.55 V at VCC = 3.0 V with 24 mA load, meeting TTL input thresholds. This allows direct connection to legacy 5 V microcontrollers, display drivers, or sensor conditioners without external level shifters, verified across -40 °C to +125 °C operating range.
