Product details
Overview
74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J from Nexperia is an automotive-grade 8-bit dual-supply bidirectional voltage-level translating transceiver with 3-state outputs, IOFF partial power-down protection, and active bus hold circuitry. It operates across independent VCC(A) and VCC(B) supplies (1.2 V to 5.5 V), enabling translation between 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V logic domains. Used in ADAS domain controllers for SPI/parallel bus isolation between 1.8 V sensor interfaces and 3.3 V MCU subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J datasheet, 74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J pinout, 74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J application, or 74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J equivalent, this device supports high-speed bidirectional level shifting in automotive infotainment head units, battery management systems, and gateway ECUs where mixed-voltage signal integrity and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 reliability are mandatory.
Technical Context
The device implements a dual-rail CMOS architecture with separate input-reference domains: DIR and OE inputs tied to VCC(A), while B-port I/Os reference VCC(B). Direction control is edge-agnostic-DIR HIGH enables A→B data flow; DIR LOW enables B→A flow. Output enable (OE) is active-low and independently gates both ports into high-impedance state.
IOFF circuitry ensures sub-±2 μA leakage when either VCC rail is at GND, preventing backfeed during suspend mode. Bus hold circuitry maintains valid logic levels on floating A/B inputs without external pull-ups, with IBHL/IBHH currents up to ±100 μA at 3.0 V, eliminating need for discrete biasing in low-power wake-up paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | VCC(A): 1.2 V–5.5 V; VCC(B): 1.2 V–5.5 V - enables translation between any two nodes among 1.2 V/1.5 V/1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V/5.0 V |
| Max Data Rate | 420 Mbps (3.3 V ↔ 5.0 V) - supports high-throughput sensor fusion links in automotive camera modules |
| Propagation Delay | 0.4 ns–13.6 ns (typical, depending on VCC pair) - meets timing closure for 100 MHz parallel buses in ADAS processors |
| IOFF Leakage | ±2 μA max (−40 °C to +125 °C) - guarantees safe hot-swap and partial power-down in multi-rail ECU designs |
| Bus Hold Current | ±100 μA at 3.0 V - eliminates external pull resistors on unused pins in space-constrained automotive PCBs |
| ESD Rating | HBM: >4000 V; CDM: >1000 V - exceeds AEC-Q100 stress requirements for under-hood electronics |
| Ambient Temp | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for engine bay and transmission control unit mounting locations |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN24 package (SOT815-1), 3.5 × 5.5 × 0.85 mm, side-wettable flanks for AOI-compatible solder joint inspection. Exposed thermal pad (non-electrical) improves thermal resistance in high-density automotive layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 11, 12, 13 | GND | Four dedicated ground terminals reduce ground bounce and improve noise immunity in 8-bit parallel paths |
| 2 | DIR | Direction control referenced to VCC(A); HIGH = A→B, LOW = B→A - no internal pull-up/pull-down |
| 3–10 | A1–A8 | Data I/O port referenced to VCC(A); supports 1.2 V–5.5 V logic thresholds per JEDEC standards |
| 14–21 | B1–B8 | Data I/O port referenced to VCC(B); fully independent voltage domain from A-side |
| 22 | OE | Active-low output enable; asserts high-impedance on both A and B ports simultaneously |
| 23, 24 | VCC(B) | Dual VCC(B) pins lower supply impedance for B-port switching current, critical for 24 mA drive capability |
| 1, 24 | VCC(A) | VCC(A) supplied at Pin 1; Pin 24 is VCC(B) - not shared; strict separation prevents cross-rail coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for −40 °C to +125 °C operation in safety-critical automotive systems including powertrain and chassis control |
| Dual independent supply rails | VCC(A) and VCC(B) operate at different voltages simultaneously - no internal regulator or level-shifting delay penalty |
| IOFF partial power-down | Blocks damaging back-current when one supply is off - essential for modular ECU architectures with staggered power sequencing |
| Active bus hold | Maintains stable logic states on floating A/B inputs without external components - reduces BOM count and layout area |
| DHVQFN with side-wettable flanks | Enables automated optical inspection of solder joints - meets Tier-1 manufacturing traceability and zero-defect requirements |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AVC8T245RHLR | Non-automotive; rated −40 °C to +85 °C only; no AEC-Q100 qualification; IOFF not specified | Suitable for industrial HMI but not safety-critical vehicle networks | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where temperature range and automotive qualification are not required |
| TXS0108EPRJR | Auto-direction sensing (no DIR pin); lower drive strength (±8 mA vs ±24 mA); higher propagation delay (≥12 ns) | Used in low-speed I²C/SPI bridges; unsuitable for high-speed parallel buses or high-current loads | Choose when direction control logic is unavailable or when ultra-low static power (<1 μA) outweighs speed and drive needs |
Compared with SN74AVC8T245RHLR and TXS0108EPRJR, the 74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J uniquely delivers AEC-Q100 Grade 1 reliability, ±24 mA drive, and sub-6 ns propagation at 3.3 V↔1.8 V-making it the only option for time-critical automotive data highways requiring simultaneous voltage translation and fail-safe power sequencing.

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, meaning ΔVCC can reach up to 4.3 V (e.g., VCC(A) = 1.2 V, VCC(B) = 5.5 V). No derating is required, and all DC and dynamic specs-including propagation delay and drive strength-are guaranteed across the full range per Table 5 and Table 11.
Does the device require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on DIR or OE?
No. DIR and OE have no internal termination; however, system-level pull resistors are recommended for deterministic startup behavior. The bus hold feature applies only to A1–A8 and B1–B8 pins-not control inputs-so OE and DIR must be actively driven or externally biased to avoid metastability during power-up.
How does IOFF behave when only VCC(A) is powered and VCC(B) = 0 V?
In that condition, the B-port outputs enter high-impedance OFF-state with IOZ ≤ ±2 μA (Table 7), while A-port I/Os remain functional. This allows safe isolation of the B-side bus during partial system power-down-critical for domain controller sleep/wake protocols where sensor clusters power down before the main MCU.
Can the 74LVCH8T245BQ-Q10J translate between 1.2 V and 5.0 V while maintaining 420 Mbps data rate?
No. The 420 Mbps rating applies only to 3.3 V ↔ 5.0 V translation (Section 2). At 1.2 V ↔ 5.0 V, maximum data rate drops to 75 Mbps due to reduced noise margin and slower edge rates. Actual throughput must be validated per Table 11's worst-case tpd values at the specific VCC pair used.
