Product details
Overview
74LVCHR16245AZRDR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit dual-octal noninverting bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data transfer between 1.65-V to 3.6-V buses. It features 5.5-V tolerant inputs, 26-Ω integrated output series resistors, bus-hold on all data I/Os, and Ioff support for live insertion. Used in telecom infrastructure backplanes and industrial transport systems requiring mixed-voltage signal translation.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVCHR16245AZRDR datasheet, 74LVCHR16245AZRDR pinout, 74LVCHR16245AZRDR application, or 74LVCHR16245AZRDR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.8 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V, ±12 mA output drive capability, -40°C to 125°C operating range, and TSSOP-48 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 74LVCHR16245AZRDR implements two independent 8-bit transceiver channels (A↔B), each controlled by dedicated DIR and OE pins. Direction control is level-sensitive: DIR = L enables B→A data flow; DIR = H enables A→B flow. Output enable is active-low; OE = L activates outputs, OE = H places both ports in high-impedance isolation.
All 32 I/O pins (16 A-side, 16 B-side) feature bus-hold circuitry eliminating external biasing, and tolerate input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.65–3.6 V). The Ioff specification ensures no back-drive current when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe partial power-down operation in hot-swap systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - supports single-supply operation across 1.8-V, 2.5-V, and 3.3-V logic domains |
| Max Propagation Delay | 4.8 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - enables high-speed inter-bus communication up to ~200 MHz system clock edge rates |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows direct interfacing with legacy 5-V peripherals without level-shifting components |
| Output Drive Strength | ±12 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - sufficient to drive standard CMOS loads and moderate PCB trace capacitance |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±45 µA at VI = 1.7 V (3.0 V VCC) - actively holds floating inputs at valid logic levels without external resistors |
| Ioff Leakage | ±10 µA at VI/VO = 5.5 V, VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging current flow during power sequencing or hot-plug events |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements for board-level handling and field operation |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, base station, and industrial control environments |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for 74LVCHR16245AZRDR?
The 74LVCHR16245AZRDR accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V on all A- and B-port pins, regardless of VCC setting (1.65 V to 3.6 V). This overvoltage tolerance enables direct connection to 5-V logic without external level shifters. The absolute maximum rating is 6.5 V, but sustained operation above 5.5 V violates recommended conditions and risks reliability degradation.
Does 74LVCHR16245AZRDR support hot-plug operation?
Yes, the 74LVCHR16245AZRDR supports hot-plug operation via its Ioff specification: when VCC = 0 V, input/output leakage remains ≤±10 µA, preventing damaging back-current flow between powered and unpowered subsystems. This makes it suitable for modular telecom line cards and industrial I/O carriers requiring live insertion.
How does bus-hold functionality work on 74LVCHR16245AZRDR?
Bus-hold circuitry on the 74LVCHR16245AZRDR actively maintains the last-valid logic state on all A- and B-port inputs using weak feedback transistors. It operates independently of OE and DIR controls, requires no external resistors, and draws ≤±75 µA at 3.0 V VCC. This prevents floating-input-induced glitches in unterminated or sparsely loaded bus segments.
What is the purpose of the four VCC and eight GND pins on 74LVCHR16245AZRDR?
The 74LVCHR16245AZRDR uses four VCC and eight GND pins in its TSSOP-48 package to minimize power distribution impedance and ground bounce. Distributed power/ground pins reduce simultaneous switching noise, improve high-frequency decoupling effectiveness, and ensure consistent voltage delivery across all 32 I/Os-critical for maintaining 4.8 ns propagation delay accuracy and signal integrity.
Can 74LVCHR16245AZRDR be used as two independent 8-bit transceivers?
Yes, the 74LVCHR16245AZRDR is explicitly designed as a dual-octal transceiver: Channel 1 (pins 1DIR, 1OE, 1A1–1A8, 1B1–1B8) and Channel 2 (pins 2DIR, 2OE, 2A1–2A8, 2B1–2B8) operate completely independently. Each channel has separate direction and output-enable controls, allowing concurrent bidirectional data transfers on distinct bus segments.
