Product details
Overview
SN74ABT2245DWRE4 from Texas Instruments is an octal transceiver and line driver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data bus communication between A- and B-buses. It supports 5-V operation (4.5–5.5 V), delivers ±64 mA A-port sink/source drive, integrates 25-Ω series resistors on B-port outputs to suppress overshoot/undershoot, and features high-impedance state during power-up/down - used in industrial backplane interfaces and legacy bus isolation.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT2245DWRE4 datasheet, SN74ABT2245DWRE4 pinout, SN74ABT2245DWRE4 application, or SN74ABT2245DWRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include direction-control logic behavior, 3-state enable timing (tPZH/tPLZ < 6 ns), B-port 12-mA sink capability with integrated termination, and SOIC-20 package compatibility with IPC-7351 land patterns.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-bus transceiver architecture with independent DIR (direction) and OE (output enable) control inputs. The A-port outputs are standard TTL-compatible drivers capable of ±64 mA, while B-port outputs embed 25-Ω series resistors to damp signal reflections without external components. Power sequencing is managed via inherent high-impedance behavior below 2.1 V VCC.
It uses TI's EPIC-IIB BiCMOS process to achieve low dynamic power dissipation while maintaining TTL-level input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and robust latch-up immunity (>500 mA per JESD-17). ESD protection exceeds 2000 V (MIL-STD-833) and 200 V (machine model).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5-V TTL and LVTTL systems. |
| A-port IOL / IOH | 64 mA sink / 32 mA source - drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs directly. |
| B-port IOL | 12 mA sink - optimized for MOS/line-driver applications with built-in 25-Ω series termination. |
| tPLH / tPHL (A→B) | 1 ns min / 4 ns max - enables high-speed bidirectional data transfer at >100 MHz effective rates. |
| tPZH / tPLZ (OE→Output) | 1 ns min / 6 ns max - guarantees fast, glitch-free bus isolation during state transitions. |
| VIH / VIL | 2.0 V / 0.8 V - matches standard TTL input thresholds for seamless integration into legacy logic systems. |

Pinout & Package
SN74ABT2245DWRE4 is housed in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package, 7.5 mm × 12.8 mm body size, 1.27 mm lead pitch, 2.65 mm max height, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, and MSL Level-1 rating (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DIR | Direction control: LOW routes B→A; HIGH routes A→B - determines data flow path synchronously. |
| 2–9 | A1–A8 | A-bus data inputs/outputs - bidirectional I/O pins connected to local system bus. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - common return for all signals and power paths. |
| 11–18 | B1–B8 | B-bus data inputs/outputs - feature integrated 25-Ω series resistors for clean edge control. |
| 19 | OE | Output enable: LOW activates transceiver; HIGH forces all outputs into high-impedance - isolates both buses. |
| 20 | VCC | Power supply - 5-V nominal; device enters high-Z state if VCC drops below 2.1 V during power sequencing. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT245DWRE4 | Same pinout and function but includes separate A- and B-side output-enable controls (OEA, OEB) instead of single OE. | Enables independent tri-state control of each bus side - useful where asymmetric isolation is required. | Select SN74ABT245DWRE4 only if independent bus-side disable is needed; otherwise SN74ABT2245DWRE4 offers simpler control logic. |
| SN74LVC245APWRE4 | 3.3-V only (1.65–3.6 V), lower drive (±24 mA), no integrated B-port resistors, and different voltage thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V @ VCC = 3.3 V). | Targets modern low-voltage systems; not interoperable with 5-V buses without level translation. | Choose SN74LVC245APWRE4 for 3.3-V-only designs requiring smaller TSSOP-20 footprint and lower power; avoid for 5-V legacy compatibility. |
Compared with SN74ABT245DWRE4 and SN74LVC245APWRE4, SN74ABT2245DWRE4 uniquely combines 5-V operation, integrated B-port termination, and single-OE simplicity - making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial bus bridging where signal integrity and voltage compatibility are primary constraints.

FAQ
What is the recommended operating voltage range for SN74ABT2245DWRE4?
The SN74ABT2245DWRE4 is specified for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation. Operation outside this range may cause functional failure or damage. The device enters high-impedance state when VCC falls below 2.1 V, supporting safe power sequencing - critical for SN74ABT2245DWRE4 deployment in systems with uncontrolled rail ramp rates.
Does SN74ABT2245DWRE4 require external termination resistors on the B port?
No. SN74ABT2245DWRE4 integrates 25-Ω series resistors on all eight B-port outputs, specifically designed to reduce overshoot and undershoot on transmission lines. This eliminates the need for external resistors in point-to-point or short-stub bus topologies - a verified design feature confirmed in the SCBS234D datasheet Figure 3 schematic.
How does the DIR input control data flow direction in SN74ABT2245DWRE4?
In SN74ABT2245DWRE4, a LOW DIR input enables data transmission from B bus to A bus; a HIGH DIR input enables A-to-B transmission. This synchronous, level-sensitive control operates independently of OE - allowing direction setting before enabling outputs, which is essential for deterministic bus arbitration in SN74ABT2245DWRE4-based systems.
What is the maximum output current capability of the A port in SN74ABT2245DWRE4?
The A port of SN74ABT2245DWRE4 supports up to 64 mA sink current (IOL) and 32 mA source current (IOH) at VCC = 4.5 V, per the recommended operating conditions table. This drive strength meets or exceeds standard TTL fan-out requirements and supports direct connection to multiple legacy logic inputs without buffering.
Is SN74ABT2245DWRE4 compatible with automatic optical inspection (AOI) and solder paste inspection (SPI) processes?
Yes. SN74ABT2245DWRE4 uses a standard SOIC-20 (DW) package with 1.27 mm pitch and defined land pattern per IPC-7351 - fully supported by commercial AOI/SPI systems. TI's provided board layout and stencil design guidelines (DW0020A) confirm compatibility with 0.125 mm stencil thickness and symmetric pad geometry for reliable 100% solder joint coverage.
