Product details
Overview
IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 from Integrated Device Technology is an octal noninverting bus transceiver with dual-supply voltage translation (3.3V ↔ 5V), ±24mA drive strength, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), 5V-tolerant I/O, and 3-state outputs. It enables asynchronous bidirectional data transfer between mixed-voltage buses in embedded control and interface subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 datasheet, IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 pinout, IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 application, or IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCCA/VCCB supply separation, DIR/OE control logic, propagation delay (≤6.7 ns), rail-to-rail output swing, and SOIC-24 green package compatibility with legacy 5V/3.3V system interconnects.
Technical Context
The IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 implements a dual-rail CMOS transceiver architecture with independent A-port (5V) and B-port (3.3V) supplies, enabling true bidirectional level shifting without external biasing. Direction is controlled by DIR, while OE overrides direction and places both ports in high-impedance state.
All inputs feature hysteresis (100 mV typical) for noise immunity; outputs deliver ±24mA drive on A-port and ±24mA on B-port under respective VCC conditions. The device supports hot insertion and maintains rail-to-rail swing across its full industrial operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCCA Supply | 5V ±0.5V - powers A-port (5V logic domain) and defines VOH/VOL thresholds for A-side outputs |
| VCCB Supply | 2.7V to 3.6V - powers B-port (3.3V logic domain); 3.3V nominal enables compatibility with LVTTL/LVCMOS systems |
| Propagation Delay | ≤6.7 ns (A→B), ≤6.3 ns (B→A) - ensures sub-7 ns latency for real-time bus arbitration and synchronous handshaking |
| Output Drive | ±24mA per pin - drives moderate capacitive loads (e.g., 50pF traces + multiple inputs) without signal degradation |
| Input Hysteresis | 100 mV typical - rejects noise spikes up to 100 mV on DIR, OE, and data lines in electrically noisy environments |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - validated for industrial control, motor drives, and telecom infrastructure where ambient extremes occur |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 5V tolerant on all pins - allows safe connection to 5V buses even when VCCB = 3.3V, eliminating external clamping diodes |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOIC-24 (SOG), gull-wing lead form, RoHS-compliant green finish (per ordering code "SOG8"). Dimensions: 15.4 mm × 7.5 mm × 2.36 mm (JEDEC MS-013).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 20 | GND | Separate ground reference for A-port and B-port logic domains; requires low-inductance PCB tie to common system ground plane |
| 10, 11 | VCCA | 5V supply input for A-port drivers and inputs; bypass with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| 12, 13 | VCCB | 3.3V supply input for B-port drivers and inputs; decoupling required independently from VCCA |
| 19 | DIR | Direction control input (active-HIGH): HIGH enables A→B flow; LOW enables B→A flow |
| 18 | OE | Output enable input (active-LOW): LOW enables transceiver; HIGH forces both ports into 3-state high-Z |
| A1–A8 (pins 2–9) | A-port I/O | Bidirectional 5V-tolerant data lines; function as inputs or 3-state outputs depending on DIR/OE state |
| B1–B8 (pins 14–17, 21–24) | B-port I/O | Bidirectional 3.3V I/O lines; tolerate 5V inputs; driven by VCCB-regulated output stage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | VOH ≥ 4.3V (A-port, IOH = –24mA), VOL ≤ 0.55V - maximizes noise margin in 5V systems with marginal VCC regulation |
| Hot-insertion support | IOZH/IOZL ≤ ±5 µA in 3-state - prevents bus contention and backdrive damage during live board insertion |
| Dual-supply isolation | VCCA and VCCB powered independently - eliminates ground loop currents between 5V and 3.3V subsystems |
| Low static power | ICCL ≤ 80 µA (A-port), ICCL ≤ 50 µA (B-port) - reduces quiescent current in always-on industrial monitoring nodes |
| Capacitance-optimized I/O | CIN = 5 pF, CI/O = 11 pF - minimizes switching-induced crosstalk and EMI in dense PCB layouts |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver and voltage translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC4245APWR | TI part uses same 24-pin TSSOP package but specifies VCCB = 1.65V–3.6V (wider low-voltage range); propagation delay slightly higher (max 7.5 ns) | Supports 1.8V I/O domains not covered by IDT74LVC4245ASOG8; less suitable for strict 3.3V-only designs requiring minimal delay | Select if interfacing to 1.8V peripherals; verify timing closure due to longer tPHL/tPLH |
| 74AVC4245PW,118 | NXP part offers lower ICCZ (300 µA vs 500 µA) and faster max tPLH (5.5 ns), but lacks 5V tolerance on B-port I/O pins | Requires external protection for B-port when connected to 5V sources; unsuitable for hot-plug scenarios involving 5V backplanes | Prefer for ultra-low-power 3.3V↔3.3V or 3.3V↔2.5V translation where 5V tolerance is unnecessary |
Compared with SN74LVC4245APWR and 74AVC4245PW,118, the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 delivers guaranteed 5V tolerance on all pins and tighter propagation delay (≤6.7 ns), making it optimal for robust industrial 5V/3.3V bus bridging where signal integrity and fault resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended operating voltage for VCCA and VCCB on the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8?
The IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 specifies VCCA = 5V ± 0.5V (i.e., 4.5V to 5.5V) and VCCB = 2.7V to 3.6V. Exceeding these ranges risks violating absolute maximum ratings and may cause permanent damage. The device is not rated for 3.3V ±10% operation on VCCB - 3.6V is the hard upper limit.
Does the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 support hot swapping, and how is this implemented?
Yes, the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 supports hot insertion via its 5V-tolerant I/O structure and low leakage in 3-state mode (IOZH/IOZL ≤ ±5 µA). When OE is HIGH, both ports enter high-impedance state before power rails stabilize, preventing backdrive current and bus contention during live board insertion into powered backplanes.
How does the DIR pin control data direction in the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8?
In the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8, DIR = LOW enables data flow from B-port to A-port (3.3V → 5V), while DIR = HIGH enables A-port to B-port (5V → 3.3V). This control is overridden by OE: when OE = HIGH, both ports go high-Z regardless of DIR state, providing unconditional bus isolation.
What is the significance of hysteresis on input pins of the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8?
The IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 incorporates 100 mV typical input hysteresis on all control and data pins. This increases noise immunity by creating separate VIH and VIL thresholds - for example, a rising signal must exceed VIH by ≥100 mV to register as HIGH, and falling signals must drop below VIL by ≥100 mV to register as LOW - suppressing false toggling in EMI-prone industrial settings.
Can the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 be used for unidirectional translation only, and how is that configured?
Yes, the IDT74LVC4245ASOG8 can operate unidirectionally: fix DIR to a constant logic level (HIGH for A→B, LOW for B→A) and use OE to gate data flow. For example, with DIR = HIGH and OE toggled, only A-port drives B-port - B-port inputs remain valid but outputs are disabled, enabling clean 5V→3.3V translation without reverse path interference.
