Product details
Overview
SN74ABT2245PW from Texas Instruments is an octal transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data bus communication between A and B ports. It operates at 4.5–5.5 V, supports ±64 mA A-port sink/source, includes integrated 25-Ω B-port series termination, and is rated for –40°C to 85°C. Used in industrial backplane interfaces and legacy system bus bridging.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT2245PW datasheet, SN74ABT2245PW pinout, SN74ABT2245PW application, or SN74ABT2245PW equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TSSOP-20 package details, direction-control timing behavior, and real-world isolation use cases - all confirmed against TI's SCBS234D production data sheet.
Technical Context
The SN74ABT2245PW implements a dual-bus transceiver architecture with independent DIR (direction) and OE (output enable) control inputs. Its EPIC-IIB BiCMOS process enables high-speed switching (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.5 ns @ 5 V, CL = 50 pF) while maintaining low ground bounce (VOLP < 1 V) and robust latch-up immunity (>500 mA per JESD-17).
It features asymmetric drive strength: A-port outputs deliver up to 64 mA sink / 32 mA source, while B-port outputs are optimized for MOS/line driving with built-in 25-Ω series resistors and 12 mA drive capability. Power-up/down high-impedance behavior is guaranteed below 2.1 V on VCC, with OE pull-up recommended above that threshold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5-V TTL and CMOS logic rails without level shifting. |
| A-port IOL/IOH | 64 mA sink / 32 mA source - drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs directly. |
| B-port IOL/IOH | 12 mA sink / 12 mA source - matched to MOS gate and transmission-line loading requirements. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.5 ns (A↔B) - ensures sub-5-ns bidirectional latency in high-speed bus arbitration. |
| Output Enable Timing | tPZL/tPHZ ≤ 6.3 ns - enables fast bus arbitration and dynamic port isolation during state transitions. |
| Input Hysteresis | Vhys = 100 mV - rejects noise on DIR/OE control lines in electrically noisy industrial environments. |
| ESD Rating | 2000 V HBM, 200 V MM - exceeds MIL-STD-833 and supports handling in non-ESD-controlled assembly areas. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 (PW) package: 6.95 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.2 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, exposed pad not present, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DIR | Direction control input: LOW routes B→A; HIGH routes A→B - critical for half-duplex bus arbitration logic. |
| 2–9 | A1–A8 | A-port bidirectional I/Os - connect to local microcontroller or ASIC data bus; internally 3-state when OE HIGH. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference for all I/O and internal logic - must be low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce. |
| 11–18 | B1–B8 | B-port bidirectional I/Os - include integrated 25-Ω series resistors; optimized for line/MOS driver interface. |
| 19 | OE | Active-low output enable - asserts 3-state on both A and B ports simultaneously; tied HIGH via pullup for default isolation. |
| 20 | VCC | 5-V power supply - requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling within 5 mm of pin for stable high-speed operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 25-Ω B-port series resistors | Eliminates external termination components, reduces PCB area, and suppresses signal overshoot/undershoot on long traces. |
| EPIC-IIB BiCMOS process | Reduces static power consumption vs. bipolar-only equivalents while retaining TTL-compatible drive strength and speed. |
| Power-up/power-down high-impedance | Prevents bus contention during system reset or brownout by forcing 3-state before VCC reaches 2.1 V. |
| Latch-up immunity >500 mA | Meets JEDEC JESD-17 - ensures robust operation in systems with shared ground planes or transient coupling. |
| Low output ground bounce (VOLP < 1 V) | Maintains signal integrity across all 16 I/Os switching simultaneously at 5 V, critical for noise-sensitive analog sections. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC245APW | Lower voltage (1.65–3.6 V), 24 mA drive, no integrated B-port resistors, CMOS process. | Requires external termination; suited for 3.3-V systems only; lacks 5-V tolerance and latch-up immunity. | Select when operating strictly at 3.3 V and board space permits discrete termination; not drop-in for 5-V legacy designs. |
| SN74ABT245N | Same ABT family, identical electrical specs, but in 20-pin PDIP (N) package - larger footprint, through-hole mount. | Used in prototyping, repair, or legacy through-hole assemblies; lacks TSSOP thermal performance and density. | Choose for hand-soldered development boards or field-replaceable modules where TSSOP reflow is unavailable. |
Compared with SN74LVC245APW and SN74ABT245N, the SN74ABT2245PW uniquely combines 5-V operation, integrated B-port termination, and industrial temperature range in a compact TSSOP-20 package - making it irreplaceable in retrofitting legacy 5-V bus systems with minimal layout change.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current for the A-port pins of the SN74ABT2245PW?
The SN74ABT2245PW A-port pins support up to 64 mA sink current (IOL) and 32 mA source current (IOH) under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, TA = –40°C to 85°C). This rating applies per pin with all other outputs active, and thermal limits must be observed using the PW package's θJA = 128°C/W.
Does the SN74ABT2245PW require external series resistors on the B-port outputs?
No. The SN74ABT2245PW integrates 25-Ω series resistors on all eight B-port outputs, explicitly designed to reduce overshoot and undershoot on transmission lines. External termination is unnecessary unless signal integrity analysis indicates additional impedance matching beyond the built-in value.
How does the SN74ABT2245PW behave during power-up and power-down sequences?
When VCC is between 0 V and 2.1 V, the SN74ABT2245PW automatically enters a high-impedance state on all I/Os, preventing bus contention. Above 2.1 V, OE must be actively pulled HIGH (e.g., via resistor to VCC) to maintain isolation - OE is not internally biased.
What is the absolute maximum supply voltage rating for the SN74ABT2245PW?
The absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC) for the SN74ABT2245PW is 7 V, as specified in the absolute maximum ratings table. Operation beyond 5.5 V - the upper limit of the recommended range - risks accelerated parametric drift and reduced long-term reliability, even if within absolute limits.
Can the SN74ABT2245PW be used in a 3.3-V system?
No. The SN74ABT2245PW is specified only for 4.5–5.5 V operation. Its input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VVIH = 2.0 V) and output drive characteristics are optimized for 5-V TTL compatibility. For 3.3-V systems, TI recommends the SN74LVC245A or SN74ALVC245 families instead.
