Product details
Overview
SN74ABT2952ADBR from Texas Instruments is an octal bus transceiver and register with 3-state outputs, designed for bidirectional data flow between two 8-bit buses. It features dual back-to-back registers, noninverting outputs, 5-V supply operation, ±64-mA output drive, and operates from –40°C to 85°C. It is used in high-speed system bus isolation and data buffering applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT2952ADBR datasheet, SN74ABT2952ADBR pinout, SN74ABT2952ADBR application, or SN74ABT2952ADBR equivalent, key selection factors include clocked register functionality, 3-state control per direction, output drive strength, ground-bounce performance (VOLP < 1 V), and DB-package thermal impedance (104°C/W).
Technical Context
The SN74ABT2952ADBR implements two independent 8-bit register paths-A-to-B and B-to-A-each controlled by dedicated clock (CLKAB/CLKBA), clock-enable (CLKENAB/CLKENBA), and output-enable (OEAB/OEBA) inputs. Data latching occurs on the low-to-high clock transition when the corresponding clock-enable is low.
Its EPIC-IIB BiCMOS process enables TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V), fast switching (fMAX = 150 MHz), and low power dissipation. Output enable logic ensures high-impedance state during power sequencing when OE is pulled up to VCC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5-V TTL and CMOS systems |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to 85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded and computing applications |
| Output Drive | IOL = 64 mA / IOH = –32 mA - supports heavy capacitive loads and fanout to multiple TTL inputs |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 6.3 ns (max) at 5 V - enables reliable timing in sub-7-ns critical paths |
| Ground Bounce | VOLP < 1 V at VCC = 5 V - reduces noise coupling during simultaneous output switching |
| ESD Protection | 2000 V HBM, 200 V machine model - enhances robustness in handling and board assembly |
| Latch-Up Immunity | >500 mA per JESD 17 - prevents destructive latch-up under transient overvoltage conditions |
Pinout & Package
SN74ABT2952ADBR is packaged in a 24-pin Shrink Small-Outline (DB) package with 300-mil body width and gull-wing leads. The package has θJA = 104°C/W and is RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and MSL Level-1 rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A8 | A-side data inputs/outputs | 8-bit bidirectional port connected to one system bus; driven or tristated based on OEAB/CLKENAB |
| B1–B8 | B-side data inputs/outputs | 8-bit bidirectional port connected to second system bus; independent A/B register control |
| CLKAB | A-to-B clock input | Triggers latching of A-port data into A→B register on rising edge when CLKENAB = L |
| CLKBA | B-to-A clock input | Triggers latching of B-port data into B→A register on rising edge when CLKENBA = L |
| CLKENAB | A-to-B clock enable | Active-low; disables CLKAB sampling when high, preventing unintended register updates |
| CLKENBA | B-to-A clock enable | Active-low; disables CLKBA sampling when high, enabling independent direction gating |
| OEAB | A-to-B output enable | Active-low; places A-port drivers in high-Z when high, isolating A bus from B bus |
| OEBA | B-to-A output enable | Active-low; places B-port drivers in high-Z when high, isolating B bus from A bus |
| VCC | Power supply | 5-V supply pin; requires local 0.1-µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
| GND | Ground reference | Signal and power return; must be low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual 8-bit registered transceivers | Enables synchronous, glitch-free bidirectional data transfer with independent clocking per direction |
| Noninverting outputs | Maintains signal polarity across both directions-critical for bus parity, address mirroring, and protocol integrity |
| State-of-the-art EPIC-IIB BiCMOS | Reduces dynamic power vs. standard bipolar while retaining TTL speed and drive capability |
| Low ground bounce (VOLP < 1 V) | Minimizes supply rail disturbance during parallel output switching-essential for mixed-signal system stability |
| Robust ESD and latch-up immunity | Meets MIL-STD-883 (2000 V HBM) and JESD 17 (>500 mA), supporting rugged industrial deployment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal registered transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT245DBR | No internal registers; only 3-state transceiver (no clocked storage); lower drive (IOL = 64 mA same, but no CLK/CLKEN) | Suitable for simple level-shifting or bus isolation without timing control; cannot replace clocked data staging | Select when synchronous register function is unnecessary and cost or propagation delay is prioritized |
| SN74LVTH245DBR | 3.3-V only operation (1.65–3.6 V); LVCMOS input thresholds; lower drive (IOL = 32 mA); no ground-bounce spec | Designed for low-voltage mixed-signal systems; incompatible with 5-V buses without level translation | Select only in 3.3-V-only designs where power efficiency outweighs 5-V compatibility and noise immunity |
Compared with SN74ABT2952ADBR, SN74ABT245DBR omits clocked register functionality-making it unsuitable for applications requiring deterministic timing alignment-while SN74LVTH245DBR sacrifices 5-V tolerance and noise robustness for lower voltage operation, limiting use in legacy industrial or mixed-voltage environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74ABT2952ADBR?
The SN74ABT2952ADBR supports a maximum clock frequency of 150 MHz across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to 85°C) and supply voltage (4.5 V to 5.5 V). This specification is verified under CL = 50 pF load conditions and reflects guaranteed timing performance for both A-to-B and B-to-A register paths in the SN74ABT2952ADBR device.
Does the SN74ABT2952ADBR require external pull-up resistors on its output-enable pins?
Yes, to ensure high-impedance state during power-up or power-down, OEAB and OEBA of the SN74ABT2952ADBR should each be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor. The minimum resistance value depends on the current-sinking capability of the driving source; TI recommends verifying against the specific driver's IOL rating to avoid violating the OE input voltage threshold.
Can the SN74ABT2952ADBR operate reliably at 4.5 V supply voltage?
Yes, the SN74ABT2952ADBR is fully characterized for operation from 4.5 V to 5.5 V. At VCC = 4.5 V, it maintains guaranteed IOL ≥ 48 mA, VOL ≤ 0.55 V, and tPLH/tPHL ≤ 6.3 ns (max), satisfying all recommended operating conditions specified in the official SN74ABT2952ADBR datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the SN74ABT2952ADBR in its DB package?
For the SN74ABT2952ADBR in the 24-pin Shrink Small-Outline (DB) package, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance θJA is 104°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions. This value assumes a two-layer PCB with minimal copper pour; actual thermal performance may improve with enhanced layout practices such as internal ground/power planes and thermal vias.
Is the SN74ABT2952ADBR pin-compatible with the SN74ABT2952ADWR?
Yes, the SN74ABT2952ADBR and SN74ABT2952ADWR share identical pinouts, electrical specifications, and functional behavior-they differ only in packaging: DB (SSOP) vs. DW (SOIC). Both use 24-pin layouts with identical A1–A8, B1–B8, CLKAB, CLKBA, OEAB, OEBA, CLKENAB, CLKENBA, VCC, and GND assignments, enabling direct PCB footprint interchangeability.
