Product details
Overview
IDT74LVCH162245APVG from Renesas Electronics (formerly IDT) is a 3.3V CMOS 16-bit bus transceiver with 5V-tolerant I/O, bus-hold, and dual-drive capability-featuring ±24mA drive on B-port and ±12mA on A-port. It operates across –40°C to +85°C, supports mixed 3.3V/5V systems, and functions as either one 16-bit or two independent 8-bit transceivers via DIR/OE controls.
For engineers reviewing the IDT74LVCH162245APVG datasheet, IDT74LVCH162245APVG pinout, IDT74LVCH162245APVG application, or IDT74LVCH162245APVG equivalent, key selection criteria include 5V I/O tolerance, industrial temperature operation, bus-hold functionality eliminating external pull resistors, and asymmetric output drive strength optimized for load-matched signal integrity in data communication backplanes.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-rail translation architecture: all inputs, outputs, and I/O pins tolerate 0–5.5V regardless of VCC (2.7–3.6V), enabling seamless interfacing between legacy 5V logic and modern 3.3V domains. The A-port integrates series damping resistors to suppress ringing under light loads, while the B-port delivers higher current for driving heavier capacitive loads without speed degradation.
Bus-hold circuitry actively retains the last valid logic state on all A- and B-port inputs during high-impedance conditions, preventing floating nodes and reducing system-level BOM count. Direction control (DIR) and active-low output enable (OE) allow flexible configuration-either unidirectional flow per port or full bidirectional 16-bit transfer-with OE overriding DIR to force high-impedance on both sides.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7V to 3.6V - supports wide supply margin for industrial power rail variation |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 0V to 5.5V - enables direct connection to 5V peripherals without level-shifting components |
| B-Port Output Drive | ±24mA - drives moderate-to-heavy capacitive loads (e.g., 50pF+ traces or multiple inputs) at full speed |
| A-Port Output Drive | ±12mA with integrated series resistance - reduces overshoot/ringing on lightly loaded buses |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 1.0–4.8ns @ VCC=3.3V - ensures sub-5ns timing for high-throughput asynchronous bus transfers |
| Output Skew (tSK(o)) | ≤500ps - maintains tight signal alignment across all 16 outputs for synchronous sampling |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±75μA @ VCC=3V - sustains input state against noise up to ±75μA injection without external biasing |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-48 package (7.0mm × 12.5mm, 0.5mm pitch), lead-free and RoHS-compliant. Pin numbering follows standard TSSOP top-view convention with pin 1 marked by dot or bevel.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1DIR, 2DIR | Direction Control Input (Active HIGH) | Controls data flow direction per 8-bit section: HIGH = A→B, LOW = B→A |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output Enable Input (Active LOW) | Disables both ports to high-impedance when HIGH; overrides DIR when asserted |
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 | Side-A I/O with Bus-Hold | 8-bit port with integrated bus-hold; tolerates 5V inputs while powered from 3.3V |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 | Side-B I/O with High-Drive | 8-bit port delivering ±24mA; optimized for driving terminated lines or fan-out loads |
| VCC (Pins 4, 20, 36, 48) | Power Supply | Single 3.3V supply; four dedicated pins reduce IR drop and improve noise immunity |
| GND (Pins 3, 19, 35, 47) | Ground Reference | Four ground pins provide low-inductance return paths for switching currents |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5V-Tolerant I/O Architecture | Allows direct interface to 5V logic without external translators or voltage dividers in mixed-supply systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC162245ADGGR | TI part with identical pinout and function but no bus-hold; requires external pull resistors on unused inputs | Lacks integrated bus-hold - increases BOM count and PCB area in systems with unterminated stubs | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs design simplicity and bus-hold is managed externally |
| 74ALVC162245PW | Nexperia part offers same 5V tolerance and drive strength but uses different TSSOP-48 footprint (slightly wider body) | Requires minor PCB layout revision due to 0.65mm vs. 0.5mm pitch compatibility check | Select when sourcing diversification is prioritized and mechanical fit is verified |
Compared with SN74LVC162245ADGGR and 74ALVC162245PW, the IDT74LVCH162245APVG uniquely integrates bus-hold without footprint penalty and guarantees 0.5mm-pitch TSSOP compatibility-reducing design risk in high-reliability industrial deployments where input stability and layout reuse are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage on the I/O pins of the IDT74LVCH162245APVG?
The IDT74LVCH162245APVG supports I/O voltages from –0.5V to +6.5V relative to GND, with functional operation guaranteed from 0V to 5.5V. This allows safe interfacing with 5V TTL and CMOS logic while powered from a 3.3V supply-no external clamping diodes or level shifters required. The absolute maximum rating of +6.5V provides margin against transient overvoltage events.
Does the IDT74LVCH162245APVG require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its inputs?
No. The IDT74LVCH162245APVG incorporates bus-hold circuitry on all A- and B-port inputs, which actively retains the last valid logic state when inputs float. This eliminates the need for external pull resistors in most configurations-reducing BOM cost, PCB area, and potential noise coupling. Bus-hold sustain current is ±75μA at VCC = 3V, sufficient to maintain state against typical board leakage.
How does the asymmetric drive strength between A-port and B-port benefit system design?
The IDT74LVCH162245APVG assigns ±12mA drive with integrated series resistance to the A-port and ±24mA drive without added resistance to the B-port. This asymmetry allows designers to route noise-sensitive, lightly loaded signals (e.g., control lines) through the A-port to minimize ringing, while using the B-port for high-capacitance data paths (e.g., memory or peripheral buses) where stronger drive maintains edge integrity-optimizing signal quality per signal type.
Can the IDT74LVCH162245APVG operate with a 2.5V supply?
No. The IDT74LVCH162245APVG is specified for VCC = 2.7V to 3.6V only. While some DC parameters may function at 2.5V, timing performance-including propagation delay and output skew-is not guaranteed outside the rated range. For 2.5V systems, consider the pin-compatible IDT74LVC162245A variant, which supports 2.3V–3.6V operation but lacks bus-hold.
What is the thermal performance of the IDT74LVCH162245APVG in continuous operation?
The IDT74LVCH162245APVG is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient, with storage temperature up to +150°C. Its CMOS process yields low static current (≤10μA typical), minimizing self-heating. Under worst-case switching (all 16 bits toggling at 10MHz into 50pF), power dissipation remains below 15mW-well within TSSOP-48 thermal limits even in sealed enclosures without forced airflow.
