Product details
Overview
74LVTH162244DLRG4 from Texas Instruments is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for mixed-mode interfacing between 3.3-V logic and 5-V systems. It provides true outputs, symmetrical active-low output-enable inputs, and integrated 22-Ω series resistors to suppress overshoot/undershoot. It supports hot insertion and operates down to 2.7 V, making it suitable for industrial backplane and memory interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 datasheet, 74LVTH162244DLRG4 pinout, 74LVTH162244DLRG4 application, or 74LVTH162244DLRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 16-bit 3-state buffering capability, 12-mA drive strength per output, 2.7–3.6-V supply range, Ioff-enabled hot-swap support, and SSOP-48 (DL) package compatibility with legacy 5-V TTL environments.
Technical Context
The 74LVTH162244DLRG4 implements four independent 4-bit noninverting buffers, each with dedicated active-low OE control (1OE–4OE). Its ABT (Advanced BiCMOS Technology) architecture enables TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V) while operating at 3.3-V VCC, supporting bidirectional voltage translation without level shifters.
It features distributed VCC/GND pins and flow-through pinout to minimize switching noise and simplify PCB layout. The device incorporates power-up 3-state and Ioff circuitry to ensure high-impedance outputs during power ramping or when powered down, preventing bus contention and backflow current in live-insertion scenarios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - supports unregulated battery operation and tolerates supply droop in portable/embedded systems |
| IOL / IOH | ±12 mA - sufficient to drive standard TTL loads and 50-pF transmission lines without external buffers |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 5.1 ns @ VCC = 3.3 V - enables reliable operation in 100-MHz+ data paths |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V - ensures robust recognition of 5-V TTL logic levels at 3.3-V supply |
| Output Series Resistance | 22 Ω integrated - eliminates need for external termination resistors, reducing BOM count and board area |
| Ioff Current | ±100 µA @ VCC = 0 - blocks damaging back-current during hot insertion, protecting upstream drivers |
| ESD Rating | HBM: 2000 V - meets industrial-grade ESD immunity requirements without additional protection circuitry |
Pinout & Package
74LVTH162244DLRG4 is packaged in a 48-pin Plastic Small-Outline (SSOP) package (DL), 0.300-inch body width, JEDEC MO-118 compliant, with 0.025-inch lead pitch. Pinout follows flow-through architecture for optimal signal routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE–4OE | Active-low output enable | Independent control per 4-bit group; asserts high-impedance state when high |
| 1A1–4A4 | Data inputs | 16 total inputs; TTL-compatible thresholds allow direct connection to 5-V sources |
| 1Y1–4Y4 | True buffered outputs | 16 total outputs; each includes 22-Ω series resistor for clean edge control |
| VCC (Pins 7, 21, 34, 48) | Power supply | Distributed VCC pins reduce simultaneous switching noise and improve PSRR |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 25, 32, 37, 43) | Ground reference | Seven GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for all output groups |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode interface support | Accepts 5-V inputs and drives 5-V loads while powered from 3.3-V rail - eliminates external level translators |
| Integrated 22-Ω output resistors | Reduces signal reflections and ringing on stubbed or unterminated traces - simplifies layout and improves signal integrity |
| Hot-insertion capability | Ioff and power-up 3-state ensure safe insertion into live backplanes without disrupting system operation |
| Flow-through pinout | Input and output pins aligned on opposite sides - enables straight PCB trace routing and minimizes crosstalk |
| Distributed power/ground | Multiple VCC/GND pins per functional quadrant - lowers ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V) and improves noise margin |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADLRG4 | Lower drive (±24 mA), no integrated series resistors, 1.65–3.6-V VCC range | Better suited for 1.8-V/2.5-V systems; requires external termination for clean edges | Select when lower supply voltage or higher drive is needed, but accept added layout complexity |
| 74ALVCH162244GR | Higher speed (tPD ≤ 3.9 ns), same 2.3–3.6-V range, no integrated resistors | Optimized for high-frequency memory buses; lacks Ioff for hot-swap use cases | Prefer for timing-critical applications where hot insertion is not required |
Compared with SN74LVC16244ADLRG4 and 74ALVCH162244GR, the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 uniquely combines 5-V-tolerant inputs, integrated 22-Ω termination, and Ioff-enabled hot-swap support in a single SSOP-48 package - making it the only option among the three qualified for mixed-voltage backplane and live-insertion designs.

FAQ
What is the recommended operating voltage range for the 74LVTH162244DLRG4?
The 74LVTH162244DLRG4 is specified to operate over a VCC range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V. This allows reliable function under unregulated battery conditions and accommodates typical 3.3-V supply tolerances. Operation outside this range may result in undefined behavior or damage; absolute maximum rating is 4.6 V.
Does the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 support hot insertion, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 supports hot insertion via two integrated features: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0, preventing back-current flow, and power-up 3-state holds outputs in high-impedance during VCC ramp-up. These functions are inherent to the silicon design and require no external components to implement safely in live backplane applications.
What is the purpose of the 22-Ω series resistors integrated into each output of the 74LVTH162244DLRG4?
The 22-Ω series resistors integrated into each output of the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 serve to dampen signal reflections and reduce overshoot/undershoot on transmission lines. This eliminates the need for external series termination resistors, simplifying PCB layout, reducing BOM cost, and improving signal integrity-especially in stub-loaded or unterminated bus configurations.
Can the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 interface directly with 5-V logic systems?
Yes, the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 accepts 5-V input signals (VI up to 5.5 V) while operating from a 3.3-V supply, and its outputs can drive 5-V TTL loads. This mixed-mode capability is enabled by its ABT process and input structure, allowing direct connection to legacy 5-V peripherals without external level-shifting circuitry.
What package type and pin count does the 74LVTH162244DLRG4 use?
The 74LVTH162244DLRG4 uses a 48-pin Plastic Small-Outline Package (SSOP), designated DL by Texas Instruments, with 0.025-inch lead pitch and 0.300-inch body width. It complies with JEDEC MO-118 and is RoHS-compliant with green (Pb-free, Sb/Br-free) finish and CU NIPDAU plating.
