Product details

Overview

PI74LPT16245AAE from Pericom Semiconductor is a 16-bit bidirectional voltage-level transceiver supporting asynchronous two-way data bus communication between 3.3V and 5.0V domains. It features dual 8-bit or unified 16-bit operation via independent DIR/OE controls, 24 mA balanced output drive, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). Used in mixed-voltage motherboard I/O buffering and FPGA-to-ASIC interface translation.

For engineers reviewing the PI74LPT16245AAE datasheet, PI74LPT16245AAE pinout, PI74LPT16245AAE application, or PI74LPT16245AAE equivalent, key selection criteria include 3.3V/5V tolerance, high-impedance control timing (tPZL ≤ 5.8 ns), hysteresis-enabled noise immunity, and TSSOP-48 package compatibility with LCX/LVT logic families.

Technical Context

The PI74LPT16245AAE implements dual independent direction-control paths (1DIR/2DIR) and output-enable inputs (1OE/2OE), enabling flexible partitioning into two 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit unit. Its 5V-tolerant I/O architecture allows direct connection to 5V buses while powered at 3.3V, with input hysteresis (150 mV) and low ground bounce design.

It operates across VCC = 2.7V–3.6V, delivers ±24 mA output drive, and achieves propagation delays as low as 1.5 ns (min) with 50 pF load. Switching characteristics are specified for both commercial and extended voltage ranges, with skew guaranteed ≤0.5 ns between same-direction outputs.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
VCC Range 2.7V to 3.6V - Ensures stable operation in 3.3V systems with ±0.3V supply tolerance
I/O Voltage Tolerance Inputs accept –0.5V to 7.0V; outputs drive to 5V bus - Enables safe interfacing with legacy 5V logic without level shifters
Output Drive ±24 mA (sink/source) - Sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple CMOS loads under heavy capacitive loading
Propagation Delay tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.1 ns (LPT16245C grade, CL = 50 pF) - Supports >200 MHz data rates in point-to-point bus applications
Enable/Disable Time tPZL ≤ 5.8 ns (max), tPHZ ≤ 4.8 ns (max) - Allows rapid bus arbitration and dynamic direction switching in real-time protocols
Input Hysteresis 150 mV - Rejects noise on slow-rising or noisy control signals (e.g., long PCB traces, unshielded cables)
Operating Temperature –40°C to +85°C - Qualified for industrial-grade embedded control, telecom line cards, and automotive body electronics

Pinout & Package

PI74LPT16245AAE is packaged in a Pb-free, green 48-pin thin shrink small-outline package (TSSOP), 240 mil wide (package code A), with 0.5 mm pitch and exposed thermal pad per JEDEC MO-153F/ED.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
1DIR, 2DIR Direction Control Input (Active HIGH) Determines data flow direction per 8-bit port: HIGH = A→B, LOW = B→A
1OE, 2OE Output Enable Input (Active LOW) Drives corresponding A/B ports into high-impedance state when HIGH
1A0–1A7, 2A0–2A7 Side A I/O Pins Bidirectional data terminals for Port A; 5V-tolerant inputs, 3.3V outputs
1B0–1B7, 2B0–2B7 Side B I/O Pins Bidirectional data terminals for Port B; identical electrical behavior to Side A
VCC (Pins 7, 18, 31, 42) Power Supply Four distributed VCC pins reduce simultaneous switching noise and improve PSRR
GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 21, 34, 39, 45) Ground Reference Seven GND pins provide low-inductance return paths and minimize ground bounce

Key Features

Feature Design Value
5V-Tolerant Mixed-Signal Operation Enables direct connection to 5V buses while powered at 3.3V-eliminates external level translators in mixed-voltage designs
Balanced ±24 mA Output Drive Supports driving terminated transmission lines or fan-out to ≥10 LVTTL loads without signal degradation
Hysteresis on All Inputs 150 mV threshold margin rejects EMI-induced glitches on DIR/OE control lines routed near noisy power planes
Low Ground Bounce Outputs Optimized output stage layout and distributed GND pins suppress ΔI/Δt noise during simultaneous switching of all 16 bits
Pb-Free & Green Packaging TSSOP-48 (A) meets RoHS 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020D reflow profile requirements

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional voltage-level translation applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
SN74LVC16245A 3.3V-only I/O; not 5V-tolerant on inputs - requires external clamping or series resistors for 5V bus connection Limited to 3.3V-only systems; unsuitable for direct 5V bus interfacing without redesign Select when full 5V tolerance is unnecessary and cost is primary; verify input protection for mixed-voltage use
74ALVC16245 Higher speed (tPD ≤ 3.3 ns), but only 3.6V max VCC and no 5V-tolerant inputs - incompatible with 5V bus termination Used in high-speed 3.3V-only backplanes; cannot replace PI74LPT16245AAE in 5V-tolerant roles Choose for maximum speed in purely 3.3V domains; avoid where 5V bus presence is certain

Compared with SN74LVC16245A and 74ALVC16245, PI74LPT16245AAE uniquely supports true 5V-tolerant operation without external components, making it the only drop-in solution for mixed 3.3V/5V bus arbitration where input voltage exceeds VCC.

FAQ

What is the maximum bus capacitance supported by PI74LPT16245AAE at 100 MHz?

The device specifies switching performance with CL = 50 pF, and its ±24 mA drive capability supports up to ~70 pF total load (including trace and stub capacitance) while maintaining <5 ns propagation delay and monotonic edges. For 100 MHz operation, keep net capacitance ≤45 pF and use controlled-impedance routing with series termination.

Can PI74LPT16245AAE be used with VCC = 2.5V?

No. The absolute minimum VCC is 2.7V per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. At 2.5V, VIH/VIL thresholds and output drive strength fall outside specification, risking logic misreads and insufficient noise margin. Use only within 2.7V–3.6V range.

Is the PI74LPT16245AAE pinout compatible with standard 48-pin TSSOP footprints?

Yes. It uses JEDEC MO-153F/ED compliant 48-pin TSSOP with 0.5 mm pitch and 240 mil body width. Footprint matches industry-standard 48-TSSOP layouts, including land pattern dimensions, thermal pad exposure, and solder mask clearance per IPC-7351B.

Does PI74LPT16245AAE require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on DIR/OE pins?

No. Internal weak pull-downs are not present, but the inputs have hysteresis and TTL-compatible thresholds. For robust noise immunity in electrically noisy environments, a 10 kΩ pull-down on each DIR/OE is recommended to prevent floating states during power-up or reset sequences.
