Product details

Overview

PI74ALVCH16245A from Pericom Semiconductor is a 16-bit bidirectional 3-state transceiver operating at 2.3V–3.6V supply, featuring independent 8-bit or unified 16-bit mode selection via DIR/OE controls, bus-hold circuitry eliminating external pull-ups, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), deployed in backplane data routing and memory expansion interfaces.

For engineers reviewing the PI74ALVCH16245A datasheet, PI74ALVCH16245A pinout, PI74ALVCH16245A application, or PI74ALVCH16245A equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional direction control latency, 3-state output enable timing, bus-hold input retention behavior, and TSSOP-48 thermal derating under sustained 3.3V operation.

Technical Context

This device implements dual 8-bit or single 16-bit asynchronous bus bridging using separate DIR and OE inputs per port group. Direction control is edge-independent and level-sensitive, with simultaneous A→B or B→A flow determined solely by DIR state while OE enables/disables outputs.

Bus-hold circuitry actively maintains last valid logic level on floating inputs without external components; output ground bounce (VOLP) is specified ≤0.8V and VOHV undershoot ≤2.0V at VCC = 3.3V, TA = 25°C, supporting noise-immune signal integrity in dense PCB layouts.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
VCC Range 2.3V to 3.6V - Enables direct interfacing with 3.3V LVTTL and ALVC logic families without level translation.
Propagation Delay Typ. 4.4ns (OE→output) - Supports >100MHz bus toggle rates in synchronous data transfer applications.
Bus-Hold Current ±54µA at VIH = 3.2V - Maintains stable logic states on un-driven data lines during hot-swap or partial system power-down.
Output Drive ±24mA (IOH/IOL) - Sustains full drive strength across industrial temperature range without derating.
Input Hysteresis Present on all inputs - Rejects noise up to 300mV peak-to-peak on control and data lines.
Operating Temp –40°C to +85°C - Qualified for deployment in industrial control cabinets and telecom line cards.

Pinout & Package

Package: 48-pin plastic TSSOP (A), 240-mil body width, 0.5mm lead pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, thermal pad not included.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
1DIR, 2DIR Direction Control Input Level-sensitive control: HIGH enables B→A flow; LOW enables A→B flow per 8-bit port group.
1OE, 2OE Output Enable Input (Active LOW) Drives both A and B ports into high-impedance when HIGH; must be pulled to VCC via resistor during power-up.
1A0–1A7, 2A0–2A7 Side A I/O Terminals Bi-directional data terminals for first/second 8-bit bus segment; internally connected to bus-hold circuitry.
1B0–1B7, 2B0–2B7 Side B I/O Terminals Bi-directional data terminals mirroring Side A; electrically isolated but functionally paired with respective A pins.
VCC, GND Power Supply Pins Two VCC (pins 7, 22, 37) and three GND (pins 4, 19, 34) pins minimize IR drop and improve PSRR.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
Configurable 8/16-bit operation Single DIR/OE pair per 8-bit section allows independent control of two sub-buses or synchronized 16-bit transfer.
Integrated bus-hold Eliminates need for 32 external pull-up resistors on data lines, reducing BOM count and board space.
Low ground bounce VOLP < 0.8V ensures signal integrity during simultaneous output switching in high-speed bus environments.
Industrial temperature rating Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C supports deployment in uncontrolled ambient environments.
Hysteresis on all inputs Improves noise margin on control signals (DIR/OE) in electrically noisy industrial settings.

Applications

Use Scenario: Isolating and translating data between two independent 16-bit parallel buses on a modular telecom backplane.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Asynchronous bus bridge providing controlled direction switching and 3-state isolation during hot-swap events.

Use Value: Prevents bus contention during module insertion/removal via fast OE-controlled Hi-Z assertion (<4.4ns).

Industrial PLC I/O Module Test Equipment Bus Adapter

Use Value: 2.3V–3.6V VCC range accommodates both 2.5V and 3.3V controller domains within same physical interface.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional transceiver applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
SN74ALVCH16245A Same pinout and DC specs; TI version lacks bus-hold circuitry - requires external pull-ups on all inputs. Not suitable where floating inputs occur during power sequencing or partial system reset. Select if external pull-up resistors are already present and bus-hold is unnecessary.
74LVC16245ADGG NXP part uses 1.65V–3.6V VCC range; lower drive (±24mA vs ±32mA) and no hysteresis on control inputs. Marginally less noise-immune on DIR/OE lines in EMI-heavy environments. Select for ultra-low-voltage systems down to 1.65V where full 3.3V drive strength is not required.

Compared with SN74ALVCH16245A and 74LVC16245ADGG, PI74ALVCH16245A uniquely integrates bus-hold and input hysteresis while maintaining identical TSSOP-48 footprint and 3.3V timing - critical for robustness in industrial hot-swap and partial-power-down scenarios.

FAQ

What is the recommended pull-up resistor value for OE pins during power-up?

A minimum 4.7kΩ pull-up to VCC is recommended for OE pins to ensure reliable high-impedance state at power-on. This value balances current draw against rise-time requirements and aligns with the device's specified input leakage (±5µA max) and internal weak pull-down characteristics.

Can PI74ALVCH16245A operate reliably at 2.5V VCC?

Yes - the device is fully specified from 2.3V to 3.6V. At 2.5V, propagation delay increases to ~6.2ns (typical), output drive reduces to ±18mA, and bus-hold current drops to ±32µA, all within guaranteed limits per the datasheet's DC and AC electrical characteristics tables.

How does bus-hold functionality interact with externally driven signals?

Bus-hold circuitry activates only when input voltage falls within the hysteresis window (typically 0.8V–2.0V for 3.3V operation). When a valid HIGH or LOW signal is applied, the internal keeper is overridden without contention or increased power consumption.

Is thermal derating required for continuous operation in a 70°C ambient environment?

No - the device's maximum junction temperature (150°C) and θJA of 65°C/W (TSSOP-48, 2-layer board) allow full-rated operation at 85°C ambient. At 70°C ambient, power dissipation can reach 1.0W without exceeding Tj = 135°C, well within safe margin.
