Product details
Overview
SN74ABT245BPWR from Texas Instruments is an octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data transfer between A and B buses in 5-V TTL systems. It features high-drive capability (−32 mA IOH / 64 mA IOL), hot-insertion support via Ioff and power-up 3-state, and operates across −40°C to 85°C. Used in industrial backplane interfaces and legacy system upgrades requiring robust level-shifting and bus isolation.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT245BPWR datasheet, SN74ABT245BPWR pinout, SN74ABT245BPWR application, or SN74ABT245BPWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its TSSOP-20 package, 3.2 ns typical propagation delay, 0.55 V VOL at 64 mA, and compatibility with 5-V CMOS/TTL logic families in space-constrained board designs.
Technical Context
This device implements dual-directional 8-bit data routing controlled by DIR (direction) and OE (output enable) inputs. Its output structure supports true 3-state operation during power-up/down, preventing bus contention through active Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V.
The transceiver meets JEDEC JESD 17 latch-up immunity (>500 mA), exceeds JESD 22 ESD ratings (2000-V HBM, 200-V MM), and exhibits low ground bounce (<1 V VOLP at 5 V, 25°C), making it suitable for noise-sensitive mixed-signal environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across standard 5-V supply tolerances in industrial power rails. |
| IOH / IOL | −32 mA / 64 mA - Delivers high-current drive for driving long traces or multiple TTL loads without external buffers. |
| tPLH / tPHL | 1 ns to 3.6 ns - Enables sub-4 ns bidirectional data transfer critical for high-speed parallel bus timing budgets. |
| VOL (IOL = 64 mA) | 0.55 V max - Guarantees solid logic-low margin under full-load conditions, reducing false triggering risk. |
| IOZ (3-state leakage) | ±10 μA max - Minimizes standby current in isolated bus segments, supporting low-power system sleep modes. |
| θJA (TSSOP) | 83°C/W - Defines thermal derating limit for continuous operation at ambient temperatures up to 85°C in standard PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 (PW) package: 4.4 mm × 6.5 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, 1.2 mm max height, exposed pad not present. RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | A1–A8 inputs/outputs | Port A bidirectional data terminals - connect to source bus; direction determined by DIR state. |
| 9 | DIR | Direction control input - LOW enables B→A transfer; HIGH enables A→B transfer. |
| 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 | B1–B8 inputs/outputs | Port B bidirectional data terminals - connect to destination bus; function mirrors A port. |
| 18 | OE | Output-enable active-low - HIGH forces all A/B pins into high-impedance state for bus isolation. |
| 19 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system common ground plane for signal integrity and ESD path. |
| 20 | VCC | Power supply - decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 3 mm of this pin for noise suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ioff support | Enables hot insertion by disabling outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current into powered subsystems. |
| Power-up 3-state | Automatically places outputs in high-Z during power ramp-up/down, eliminating bus conflicts without external sequencing. |
| High-drive outputs | −32 mA sink/source capability drives 20+ TTL loads or 50-Ω transmission lines directly, reducing component count. |
| Low ground bounce | <1 V VOLP at 5 V ensures clean switching edges and reduces crosstalk in dense PCB layouts. |
| Latch-up immunity | >500 mA per JEDEC JESD 17 - withstands transient overcurrent events in industrial environments. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC245APWR | 3.3-V only supply (1.65–3.6 V); lower drive (−24/24 mA); 3.3-V logic compatible. | Suitable for modern low-voltage digital systems; not interoperable with 5-V buses without level shifting. | Select when interfacing with 3.3-V FPGAs or microcontrollers where 5-V tolerance is unnecessary. |
| SN74AHCT245PW | 5-V supply only; TTL-compatible inputs; slightly higher propagation delay (4.5 ns max); same pinout. | Direct drop-in replacement for SN74ABT245BPWR in cost-sensitive applications where 32/64 mA drive is not required. | Choose for legacy designs needing identical footprint and voltage range but relaxed drive/current specs. |
Compared with SN74LVC245APWR and SN74AHCT245PW, the SN74ABT245BPWR uniquely delivers 5-V operation with highest drive strength and lowest ground bounce-critical for noise-prone industrial backplanes where signal integrity outweighs voltage scalability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for SN74ABT245BPWR?
The SN74ABT245BPWR is rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for industrial environments including factory automation, motor control cabinets, and outdoor telecom enclosures where ambient temperatures exceed commercial-grade limits. This range is validated per TI's recommended operating conditions and confirmed in the SCBS081L datasheet revision April 2005.
Does SN74ABT245BPWR support hot insertion, and how is it implemented?
Yes, SN74ABT245BPWR supports hot insertion via two integrated features: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to prevent damaging backflow current, and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance during power ramp-up/down. These functions are inherent to the silicon design and require no external components-confirmed in the "description/ordering information" section of the SCBS081L datasheet.
What is the pin configuration of SN74ABT245BPWR, and how does DIR control data flow?
SN74ABT245BPWR uses a TSSOP-20 package with pins 1–8 as A-port I/O, pins 10–17 as B-port I/O, pin 9 as DIR, pin 18 as OE, pin 19 as GND, and pin 20 as VCC. When DIR = LOW, data flows from B to A; when DIR = HIGH, data flows from A to B-verified in the FUNCTION TABLE and logic diagram of the SCBS081L datasheet.
Can SN74ABT245BPWR interface directly with 3.3-V logic devices?
No, SN74ABT245BPWR is a 5-V-only device with VIH = 2 V and VIL = 0.8 V, optimized for TTL/CMOS 5-V systems. While its inputs tolerate 3.3-V logic HIGH levels, its outputs swing rail-to-rail at 5 V and may overdrive 3.3-V inputs. For mixed-voltage systems, use a level-shifter such as TXS0108E or select SN74LVC245APWR instead.
What thermal considerations apply to SN74ABT245BPWR in continuous operation?
SN74ABT245BPWR has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 83°C/W in its TSSOP-20 (PW) package. At 85°C ambient and 30 mA ICC, junction temperature rises ~25°C above ambient-well within the 125°C absolute max. Maintain ≥1 cm² copper pour under the package and use ≥2 thermal vias to inner ground planes for sustained high-current operation.
