Product details
Overview
CY74FCT245TSOCG4 from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit noninverting bidirectional transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented data routing between two 8-bit ports (A and B). It features 64-mA sink / 32-mA source drive strength, 7-ns max propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), Ioff partial-power-down support, and TTL-compatible input/output logic levels. It is used in industrial control backplanes and legacy system bus isolation.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT245TSOCG4 datasheet, CY74FCT245TSOCG4 pinout, CY74FCT245TSOCG4 application, or CY74FCT245TSOCG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional bus direction control via T/R, high-impedance state enable via OE, Ioff protection during power sequencing, and SOIC-20 package compatibility with 5-V TTL systems.
Technical Context
The CY74FCT245TSOCG4 implements edge-rate controlled CMOS output drivers to reduce switching noise while maintaining full TTL voltage-level compatibility. Its dual-control architecture uses separate T/R (transmit/receive) and OE (output enable) inputs to independently manage data flow direction and port disable states.
It supports partial-power-down operation via Ioff circuitry that disables outputs and limits reverse current to ±1 µA when VCC = 0 V and ports are biased to 4.5 V - critical for hot-swap and mixed-voltage board designs. Matched rise/fall times and hysteresis (Vhys = 0.2 V) further enhance noise immunity in electrically noisy environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage (VCC) | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - ensures stable operation across industrial-grade 5-V rails with ±5% tolerance. |
| Output Drive Strength | 64 mA sink / 32 mA source - enables direct driving of multiple TTL loads without external buffers. |
| Propagation Delay | 1.5 ns min / 7 ns max (A↔B) - supports reliable 100-MHz bus toggling with timing margin. |
| Ioff Current | ±1 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging backflow during power-down sequencing in multi-rail systems. |
| Input Hysteresis | 0.2 V - improves noise rejection on shared control lines like T/R and OE in noisy backplane environments. |
| ESD Protection | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM - exceeds JEDEC JESD22 standards for robust handling in manufacturing and field service. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOIC-20 (DW), 7.5 mm × 12.8 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, 2.65 mm max height, RoHS-compliant NIPDAU lead finish, MSL Level-1 (unlimited reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | A0–A7 | Port A bidirectional data terminals - connect to local bus or microcontroller data lines. |
| 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 | B0–B7 | Port B bidirectional data terminals - interface with peripheral or memory bus segments. |
| 9 | GND | Ground reference for all I/O and internal logic - must be low-impedance connection. |
| 10 | VCC | 5-V supply input - requires local 0.1-µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin. |
| 12 | T/R | Transmit/Receive control - high enables A→B flow; low enables B→A flow. |
| 20 | OE | Output Enable - low enables transceiver; high forces both A and B ports into high-Z state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Edge-rate controlled outputs | Reduces simultaneous switching noise (SSN) by limiting dv/dt - critical for signal integrity on dense PCBs. |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Enables safe insertion/removal in live backplanes without latch-up or bus contention. |
| Matched rise/fall times | Minimizes duty-cycle distortion on clocked data buses, preserving setup/hold margins. |
| 3.3-V VOH typical | Ensures robust high-level margin (>2.4 V min) when driving legacy TTL inputs under worst-case VCC and temperature. |
| Function & pinout compatibility | Drop-in replacement for CY74FCT244T, CY74FCT245T, and 74F245 families - simplifies legacy design refresh. |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Isolation | Legacy System Bus Extension |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Direction-controlled data bridge enabling read/write cycles via T/R, with OE disabling during interrupt servicing. Use Value: TTL-compatible inputs eliminate level-shifters; 32-mA source drive directly powers LCD segment drivers without external pull-ups. | Use Scenario: Interfacing SRAM or EPROM to a microprocessor bus with strict timing requirements. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional data path between CPU D0–D7 and memory DQ0–DQ7, synchronized to WR/RD strobes. Use Value: 1.5-ns min propagation delay preserves timing budget; hysteresis rejects noise on shared control lines in memory expansion slots. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74F245N | Slower speed (10-ns max tPLH), no Ioff, lower drive (20-mA sink), PDIP-20 only | Limited to static 5-V systems without hot-swap; unsuitable for partial-power-down designs | Select when cost is primary and Ioff/edge-rate control are unnecessary |
| 74ACT245SCX | Higher VCC range (4.5–5.5 V), 24-mA source/24-mA sink, no Ioff, SOIC-20 | Compatible with wider supply tolerances but lacks power-down safety for modular systems | Choose for improved noise immunity over F-series, but verify Ioff requirement exclusion |
Compared with SN74F245N and 74ACT245SCX, the CY74FCT245TSOCG4 delivers superior bus drive, guaranteed Ioff protection, and tighter timing - making it the preferred choice for industrial backplanes requiring reliability under dynamic power conditions.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the CY74FCT245TSOCG4?
The CY74FCT245TSOCG4 is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This industrial temperature range is validated per TI's recommended operating conditions and supported by thermal characterization (θJA = 58°C/W for SOIC package), ensuring reliable performance in factory automation and outdoor control enclosures.
Does the CY74FCT245TSOCG4 support hot-swap capability?
Yes, the CY74FCT245TSOCG4 supports hot-swap via its Ioff circuitry, which limits reverse current to ±1 µA when VCC = 0 V and I/O pins are biased up to 4.5 V. This feature prevents damage during live insertion into powered backplanes - a key requirement confirmed in the absolute maximum ratings and electrical characteristics tables of the official datasheet.
What is the function of the T/R and OE pins on the CY74FCT245TSOCG4?
The T/R (transmit/receive) pin controls data direction: high enables A→B flow, low enables B→A flow. The OE (output enable) pin globally disables both ports into high-impedance state when high. These two independent controls allow precise bus arbitration - for example, OE can isolate the device during reset while T/R configures active data path direction.
Is the CY74FCT245TSOCG4 pin-compatible with older 74F245 devices?
Yes, the CY74FCT245TSOCG4 is functionally and pinout-compatible with standard 74F245 and 74LS245 devices in SOIC-20 package. Pin assignments (A0–A7, B0–B7, T/R, OE, VCC, GND) match exactly, and TTL-compatible input thresholds ensure drop-in replacement without layout changes - explicitly stated in the "Function, Pinout, and Drive Compatible With FCT and F Logic" section of the datasheet.
What packaging and compliance information applies to the CY74FCT245TSOCG4?
The CY74FCT245TSOCG4 is supplied in SOIC-20 (DW) package with NIPDAU lead finish, RoHS-compliant, MSL Level-1 (unlimited floor life), and tube packaging (25 units per tube). It meets JEDEC JESD22 ESD standards (2000-V HBM) and is qualified for industrial temperature operation - all verified in TI's Package Option Addendum and Packaging Information documents.
