Product details
Overview
IDT74LVC245ASOG8 from Integrated Device Technology is a 3.3V CMOS octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs and 5V-tolerant I/O, designed for bidirectional asynchronous data transfer between two 8-bit buses (A and B). It features ±24mA output drive strength, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and rail-to-rail output swing for enhanced noise immunity in mixed-voltage systems.
For engineers reviewing the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 datasheet, IDT74LVC245ASOG8 pinout, IDT74LVC245ASOG8 application, or IDT74LVC245ASOG8 equivalent, key selection considerations include 5V-tolerant I/O compatibility, direction control (DIR) and output enable (OE) logic behavior, propagation delay (≤6.3 ns at 3.3V), 3-state output timing, and SOIC-20 package mechanical fit.
Technical Context
The IDT74LVC245ASOG8 implements dual-bus bidirectional translation via DIR-controlled signal flow and OE-gated 3-state output disable. Its input hysteresis (100 mV typical) improves noise margin in noisy environments, while all I/O pins tolerate up to 5.5V regardless of VCC (2.7V–3.6V).
It operates using 0.5 µm CMOS technology with CMOS-level static power consumption (0.4 µW typical), supports hot insertion, and delivers rail-to-rail output swing-enabling robust interfacing between 3.3V and 5V subsystems without level-shifting circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7V to 3.6V - supports extended supply tolerance for stable operation across voltage drift or ripple. |
| Output Drive | ±24mA - drives moderate-to-heavy capacitive loads (e.g., >50 pF) while maintaining sub-7 ns propagation delay. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 0V to 6.5V - enables direct connection to 5V logic without external clamping or level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay | ≤6.3 ns (tPLH/tPHL, VCC = 3.3V) - ensures timing compliance in high-speed 8-bit parallel interfaces. |
| Input Hysteresis | 100 mV typical - suppresses false triggering on slow or noisy control signals like DIR and OE. |
| Quiescent ICC | ≤10 µA - minimizes standby power in battery-backed or low-power system states. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - certified for industrial-grade reliability without derating. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin SOIC (Small Outline IC, gull-wing), green RoHS-compliant variant (SOG suffix), body width 7.5 mm, standard JEDEC MS-013AC footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 | B1–B8 Inputs/Outputs | Side B 8-bit bidirectional I/O port; driven by or sourced to Bus B. |
| 18 | VCC | Primary 3.3V supply; powers internal logic and output drivers. |
| 19 | DIR | Direction control input (active-HIGH): HIGH = A→B, LOW = B→A. |
| 20 | OE | Output enable input (active-LOW): LOW = enabled, HIGH = all outputs in high-impedance state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC245APWR | Same 3.3V VCC range, ±24mA drive, and 5V-tolerant I/O; identical functional block diagram and timing specs; TI's version uses slightly higher ICCZ (15 µA vs. 10 µA max). | Identical use cases; validated in TI's industrial reference designs for PLC backplanes. | Preferred when sourcing from TI-authorized channels or requiring TI-specific qualification documentation. |
| 74LVC245AD,212 | NXP variant in SO20 package; matches DC/AC specs but specifies lower max tPHL (5.5 ns) and includes bus-hold circuitry (not present in IDT74LVC245ASOG8). | Bus-hold eliminates need for external pull-ups on floating inputs-useful in hot-swap or unpopulated slot scenarios. | Select when input stability during undefined states is critical and bus-hold functionality is explicitly required. |
Compared with SN74LVC245APWR and 74LVC245AD,212, the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 offers tighter quiescent current (≤10 µA), no integrated bus-hold (reducing input leakage risk), and long-standing qualification in industrial telecom infrastructure-making it optimal for low-power, noise-sensitive, and legacy-system-replacement designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage on the I/O pins of the IDT74LVC245ASOG8?
The IDT74LVC245ASOG8 supports 5V-tolerant I/O: all A and B port pins, DIR, and OE accept input voltages from –0.5V to +6.5V regardless of VCC setting. This allows direct interfacing with 5V logic families without external protection or level-shifting components, and is verified per Absolute Maximum Ratings table in the official datasheet.
Does the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 support hot insertion, and how is this implemented?
Yes, the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 supports hot insertion. This is achieved through its 5V-tolerant I/O structure, power-off protection (IOFF leakage ≤ ±50 µA when VCC = 0V), and controlled output-enable sequencing. When inserted into a live system, the device remains in high-impedance state until OE is asserted, preventing bus contention-confirmed in the "Drive Features" and "Absolute Maximum Ratings" sections of the IDT74LVC245A datasheet.
What is the propagation delay specification for the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 at 3.3V supply?
At VCC = 3.3V ± 0.3V and TA = 25°C, the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 has a typical propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) of 1.5 ns and a maximum of 6.3 ns. This value applies to both A→B and B→A directions and is measured under CL = 50 pF load conditions, as specified in the "Switching Characteristics" table of the official datasheet.
Is the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 pin-compatible with other LVC245 variants in SOIC-20 packages?
Yes, the IDT74LVC245ASOG8 is pin-compatible with industry-standard LVC245 transceivers in 20-pin SOIC packages-including SN74LVC245APWR and 74LVC245AD,212-sharing identical pinout, function mapping, and mechanical footprint. However, differences exist in bus-hold presence, ICCZ, and minor timing tolerances; always verify functional equivalence per application requirements before substitution.
What is the purpose of the hysteresis on the DIR and OE inputs of the IDT74LVC245ASOG8?
The IDT74LVC245ASOG8 incorporates 100 mV typical input hysteresis on DIR and OE to prevent oscillation or metastability when these control signals transition slowly or are exposed to electrical noise. This feature ensures clean, single-event state changes even with marginal rise/fall times-critical for reliable bus direction switching and output gating in electrically noisy industrial environments.
