Product details
Overview
74LVCH245ADB,112 from Nexperia is an octal 3-state bus transceiver with bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and active-low OE inputs, operating from 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply, featuring bus hold on all data inputs, IOFF partial power-down protection, and 5.5 V overvoltage-tolerant inputs for mixed-voltage level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V systems in industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVCH245ADB,112 datasheet, 74LVCH245ADB,112 pinout, 74LVCH245ADB,112 application, or 74LVCH245ADB,112 equivalent, this device serves as a voltage-level agnostic bidirectional data bridge in FPGA-to-peripheral interfaces, microcontroller expansion buses, and legacy parallel port adapters where bus stability, low static current, and robust power-down behavior are required.
Technical Context
The 74LVCH245ADB,112 implements dual 8-bit bidirectional data paths with Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity and monotonic transition tolerance. Its DIR input selects direction (A→B or B→A), while OE enables/disables all outputs into high-impedance state independently of direction.
IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking reverse current flow during partial power-down sequences. Bus hold functionality maintains valid logic states on A0–A7 inputs without external pull resistors, reducing system component count and PCB area.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - supports single-rail operation across LVC/LVCH families and enables direct interface with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic domains. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows safe connection to 5 V signal sources without level-shifting circuitry in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Propagation Delay (VCC = 3.3 V) | Max 6.3 ns - ensures sub-10 ns timing margin for 50 MHz parallel bus operation with synchronous handshaking. |
| Bus Hold Current | ±75 μA at VI = 0.8 V / 2.0 V (VCC = 3.0 V) - provides sufficient drive to maintain stable logic levels under typical noise coupling conditions. |
| IOFF Leakage (VCC = 0 V) | ±20 μA max - limits backfeed current during hot-swap or staged power sequencing, protecting upstream drivers. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for extended industrial and under-hood embedded applications without derating. |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | >2000 V - exceeds JEDEC JS-001 Class 2, enabling robust handling in manual assembly and field-replaceable modules. |
Pinout & Package
74LVCH245ADB,112 uses the SOT339-1 (SSOP20) package: plastic shrink small outline package, 20 leads, 0.65 mm pitch, body width 5.3 mm, 1.2 mm height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts with improved thermal dissipation over SO20.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction control input | LOW routes data from A-side to B-side; HIGH routes from B-side to A-side - enables flexible bidirectional bus arbitration. |
| 2–9 (A0–A7) | Data I/O port A | Bus-hold enabled inputs/outputs - retain last valid logic state when un-driven, eliminating need for external pull-up/down resistors. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and I/O currents; must be low-impedance connection to minimize ground bounce. |
| 11–18 (B0–B7) | Data I/O port B | Asymmetric I/O structure: B-side lacks bus hold but accepts 5.5 V tolerant inputs - suited for interfacing to legacy 5 V peripherals. |
| 19 (OE) | Output enable (active LOW) | Drives all A/B outputs to high-impedance when HIGH - essential for multi-drop bus sharing and conflict-free bus turnaround. |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | Single-supply rail powering core logic and I/O buffers; IOFF remains active even during VCC ramp-down or loss. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bus hold on A-side inputs | Maintains stable logic states on A0–A7 without external biasing, reducing BOM count and layout complexity in microcontroller expansion designs. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Disables output drivers and blocks reverse current when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe insertion/removal in live backplane systems. |
| 5.5 V tolerant inputs | Accepts 5 V signals on all inputs while powered from 1.2–3.6 V rails - eliminates discrete level shifters in mixed-voltage communication links. |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Provides hysteresis (typ. 0.3 V) on all inputs, rejecting slow-rising/falling edges and improving noise immunity in electrically noisy environments. |
| JEDEC-compliant voltage ranges | Fully compliant with JESD8-7A (1.65–1.95 V), JESD8-5A (2.3–2.7 V), and JESD8-C/JESD36 (2.7–3.6 V) - guarantees interoperability across standard logic families. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Backplane Interface | FPGA I/O Expansion Bridge |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC245APW,118 | No bus hold on A-side inputs; identical pinout, supply range, and timing specs. | Requires external pull resistors on A-side when unused; less suitable for floating-bus scenarios. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs bus hold requirement and external biasing is acceptable. |
| SN74LVC245APWR | Texas Instruments part; same logic function but different IOFF behavior - leakage spec not guaranteed at VCC = 0 V. | Lacks formal IOFF compliance per JEDEC JESD78; unsuitable for hot-swap or strict partial-power-down use cases. | Prefer only in TI-design ecosystems where cross-qualification and long-term supply are confirmed. |
Compared with 74LVCH245ADB,112, the 74LVC245APW,118 reduces system BOM cost but increases layout overhead, while SN74LVC245APWR offers vendor alignment at the expense of guaranteed power-off isolation - making the Nexperia LVCH variant optimal for robust, maintenance-sensitive industrial deployments.

FAQ
Can 74LVCH245ADB,112 operate with VCC = 1.2 V while accepting 5 V inputs?
Yes. The device supports 1.2 V to 3.6 V VCC operation and tolerates up to 5.5 V on all inputs regardless of supply voltage. This allows safe interfacing of 5 V peripherals to ultra-low-voltage controllers without external level shifters, provided output loading remains within 24 mA per pin at 1.2 V.
What is the functional difference between DIR = LOW and DIR = HIGH?
When DIR = LOW, data flows from A-side (pins 2–9) to B-side (pins 11–18); when DIR = HIGH, data flows from B-side to A-side. This bidirectional control enables single-transceiver implementation of full-duplex parallel buses, reducing component count versus unidirectional solutions.
Does bus hold apply to both A-side and B-side inputs?
No. Bus hold is implemented only on A0–A7 (pins 2–9). B0–B7 (pins 11–18) lack bus hold but retain 5.5 V input tolerance. This asymmetry allows A-side to serve as stable controller interface while B-side connects to externally biased legacy peripherals.
How does IOFF behave during power sequencing?
IOFF activates automatically when VCC drops below ~0.8 V, forcing all outputs into high-impedance and blocking reverse current flow from powered B-side lines into the unpowered device. This protects upstream drivers during staggered power-up/down in modular systems.
