Product details

Overview

PI74LPT16245AA from Pericom Semiconductor is a 3.3V 16-bit bidirectional voltage-level transceiver with 5V-tolerant inputs/outputs, 24 mA balanced drive strength, -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, and 48-pin TSSOP (A) package. It enables asynchronous two-way data transfer between mixed-voltage buses (3.3V ↔ 5V), serving as a bus interface in embedded control backplanes and FPGA I/O expansion.

For engineers reviewing the PI74LPT16245AA datasheet, PI74LPT16245AA pinout, PI74LPT16245AA application, or PI74LPT16245AA equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional direction control (xDIR), 3-state output enable (xOE), 5V-tolerant I/O capability, propagation delay ≤4.6 ns (LPT16245A grade), and compatibility with LCX™/LVT™ logic families.

Technical Context

The PI74LPT16245AA implements dual 8-bit or unified 16-bit bidirectional data flow via independent xDIR and xOE controls per port pair. Its input hysteresis (150 mV) and low ground bounce outputs ensure noise immunity in high-speed digital systems.

It operates across VCC = 2.7–3.6 V while accepting input voltages up to 7.0 V, enabling safe interfacing with legacy 5V logic without level-shifting circuitry. Output drive is symmetric at ±24 mA, supporting direct connection to terminated or unterminated 5V buses.

Key Specifications

ParameterValue and Actual Design Meaning
VCC Range2.7 V to 3.6 V - Enables operation in standard 3.3V supply rails with ±10% tolerance.
Input Voltage Tolerance–0.5 V to +7.0 V - Allows direct connection to 5V logic without external clamping or translation.
Output Drive Strength±24 mA - Sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple LVTTL loads simultaneously.
Propagation Delay≤4.6 ns (max, LPT16245A grade, CL = 50 pF) - Supports >100 MHz bus toggle rates in synchronous systems.
Operating Temperature–40°C to +85°C - Qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and communications equipment.
Input Hysteresis150 mV - Reduces susceptibility to noise-induced false triggering on slow-rising or noisy control signals.
Quiescent Current≤10 μA - Minimizes standby power in always-on system management interfaces.

Key Features

FeatureDesign Value

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
SN74LVC16245ADGGRLower drive (±24 mA same), but only 3.6 V max VCC; no 5V-tolerant inputs - requires external clamping for 5V bus use.Restricted to 3.3V-only systems or those with added protection circuitry; not drop-in for mixed-voltage designs.Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage flexibility and board space permits clamping diodes.
74ALVC16245PWHigher speed (tPD ≤ 3.4 ns), but narrower VCC range (2.3–3.6 V); 5V-tolerant inputs only - outputs not rated for 5V bus termination.Suitable for high-speed 3.3V-only interconnects; cannot directly drive 5V buses without series resistors or buffers.Prefer for timing-critical 3.3V FPGA-to-FPGA links where propagation delay dominates over voltage translation.

Compared with SN74LVC16245ADGGR and 74ALVC16245PW, the PI74LPT16245AA uniquely supports true 5V-bus driving capability from a 3.3V supply without external components, making it optimal for mixed-voltage backplane and legacy interface applications.

FAQ

Can PI74LPT16245AA drive a 5V bus directly without external components?

Yes. Its outputs are specified to safely drive 5V-tolerant buses when VCC = 3.3V, and its inputs accept up to 7.0 V. The device includes internal clamp diodes and is characterized for 5V-bus operation per datasheet Section 3 (DC Electrical Characteristics) and Absolute Maximum Ratings.

What is the difference between PI74LPT16245AA and PI74LPT16245AE?

Both share identical electrical and functional specifications. The suffix "E" denotes Pb-free & Green compliance; "AA" and "AE" differ only in tape-and-reel packaging configuration - "AA" is standard tube packaging, while "AE" indicates tape-and-reel (per Ordering Information table, PS2068F Rev. 11/10/08).

Does PI74LPT16245AA support hot insertion?

No. The device lacks powered-off protection circuitry (IOFF specification shows ±100 µA leakage at VCC = 0V, insufficient for true hot-swap isolation). It must be powered before signal connections are established to avoid latch-up or damage.

How many independent transceiver sections does PI74LPT16245AA contain?

It contains two independent 8-bit bidirectional transceivers (Port 1: A0–A7/B0–B7; Port 2: A0–A7/B0–B7), each with dedicated DIR and OE controls, allowing concurrent or asymmetric data flow configurations per section.
