Product details
Overview
SN74ALVCH162827DGGR from Texas Instruments is a 20-bit noninverting buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for 1.65-V to 3.6-V VCC operation. It features two independent 10-bit sections (1A/1Y and 2A/2Y), dual output-enable inputs per section (1OE1/1OE2, 2OE1/2OE2), integrated bus-hold circuitry on all data inputs, and on-die 26-Ω series output resistors-enabling clean signal integrity in high-speed bus applications such as memory address/data buffering in industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR datasheet, SN74ALVCH162827DGGR pinout, SN74ALVCH162827DGGR application, or SN74ALVCH162827DGGR equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-section 3-state control logic, bus-hold input stabilization, 12-mA sink capability, and TSSOP-56 (DGG) package compatibility with dense PCB layouts requiring low-voltage mixed-signal interfacing.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual 10-bit noninverting buffer architecture where each Y-output group activates only when both corresponding OE inputs are low-providing precise per-section output gating. The bus-hold circuitry maintains stable logic states on undriven A-inputs without external resistors, eliminating floating node risks in hot-swap or partial-connection scenarios.
Each output includes an integrated 26-Ω series resistor to suppress overshoot/undershoot during fast edge transitions, while maintaining full 3-state high-impedance behavior when disabled. Input thresholds scale with VCC (e.g., VIH = 0.65×VCC at 1.65 V), supporting robust level translation across 1.65–3.6 V domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - Enables interoperability across 1.8-V, 2.5-V, and 3.3-V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Output Drive | ±12 mA - Sinks up to 12 mA per Y-output, sufficient for driving 50-pF loads at ≤20-MHz toggle rates. |
| Propagation Delay | 1.5 ns (min) at VCC = 2.7 V - Supports sub-5-ns timing margins in high-speed address/data latching paths. |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±45 µA at VCC = 2.3 V - Actively holds unconnected A-inputs at valid logic levels, removing need for external pullups. |
| Input Capacitance | 6 pF (data inputs) - Minimizes capacitive loading on upstream drivers, preserving signal rise/fall times. |
| Power Dissipation | 16 pF (enabled outputs, CL = 50 pF, f = 10 MHz) - Low dynamic power enables use in thermally constrained modules. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM - Meets industrial IEC 61000-4-2 system-level ESD immunity requirements. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-56 (DGG) package: 14.0 mm × 6.1 mm × 1.2 mm body, 0.5-mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish, MSL Level-1 (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A10, 2A1–2A10 | Data Inputs | 20-bit parallel input bus; each has active bus-hold to prevent floating states during idle or disconnection. |
| 1Y1–1Y10, 2Y1–2Y10 | 3-State Outputs | Corresponding noninverting buffered outputs; high-impedance when either OE pair is high. |
| 1OE1, 1OE2, 2OE1, 2OE2 | Output-Enable Controls | AND-gated enable logic per 10-bit section: both OE signals must be low to activate Y outputs. |
| VCC (Pins 7, 26, 37, 56) | Supply | Four distributed VCC pins reduce IR drop and improve noise immunity across wide bus structures. |
| GND (Pins 4, 17, 33, 46) | Ground | Four dedicated GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for switching currents from 20 outputs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 26-Ω Output Series Resistors | Eliminates external termination components, reduces PCB area, and suppresses ringing on transmission lines >5 cm. |
| Bus-Hold on All Data Inputs | Maintains valid logic state on unused or disconnected A-inputs-no external pullup/pulldown resistors required. |
| Dual Independent 10-Bit Sections | Enables selective enabling of address vs. data buses or separate control of two memory banks without interdependence. |
| Low-Voltage Operation (1.65 V min) | Supports direct interface with modern low-power microcontrollers and FPGAs operating at 1.8 V core voltage. |
| Latch-Up Immunity >250 mA | Meets JESD17 Class II requirements, ensuring robustness against transient current faults in industrial environments. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bus-hold protected interface IC that prevents undefined states during module insertion/removal sequences. Use Value: Eliminates risk of metastability or latch-up during hot-plug events by holding inputs at last-valid state until firmware reinitializes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 20-bit buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADGGR | No bus-hold; requires external pullups; 24-mA drive; 1.65–3.6-V VCC. | Lacks input state retention-unsuitable for hot-swap or intermittent connection use cases. | Select when higher drive strength is needed and bus-hold is not required. |
| SN74AVC16T245DGGR | Bidirectional with direction control; no bus-hold; 12-mA drive; 1.2–3.6-V VCC. | Requires additional direction-control signal routing; supports true bidirectional data flow. | Select for bidirectional data transfer (e.g., I²C expansion), not unidirectional buffering. |
Compared with SN74ALVCH162827DGGR, SN74LVC16244ADGGR offers greater drive but no bus-hold, while SN74AVC16T245DGGR adds direction control at the cost of increased pin count and complexity-neither provides the same combination of dual-section 3-state gating and self-stabilizing inputs.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required for reliable operation of the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR?
The SN74ALVCH162827DGGR operates reliably from 1.65 V to 3.6 V. At 1.65 V, input thresholds are defined as VIH = 0.65×VCC (≥1.07 V) and VIL = 0.35×VCC (≤0.58 V), ensuring compatibility with 1.8-V logic families. Below 1.65 V, timing and drive performance are not guaranteed per datasheet specifications.
How does the bus-hold circuitry function on the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR inputs?
The SN74ALVCH162827DGGR integrates active bus-hold circuitry on all 20 A-inputs, drawing ±45 µA (at VCC = 2.3 V) to maintain the last-valid logic state when inputs are floating or undriven. This eliminates external pullup/pulldown resistors and prevents metastability in partially connected or hot-swap scenarios.
Can the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR be used in bidirectional data paths?
No-the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR is a unidirectional noninverting buffer only. Its A inputs accept signals and Y outputs drive them; there is no direction-control pin or internal reverse path. For bidirectional applications, consider TI's SN74AVC16T245DGGR instead.
What is the recommended power-up sequence for the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR to ensure high-impedance outputs?
To guarantee high-impedance outputs during power-up, tie all OE inputs (1OE1, 1OE2, 2OE1, 2OE2) to VCC via a pullup resistor. TI specifies a minimum resistance based on driver sink capability-typically ≥10 kΩ for standard CMOS drivers-to avoid contention while ensuring OE remains high until firmware asserts control.
Does the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR support hot-plug operation without external protection?
Yes-the SN74ALVCH162827DGGR's bus-hold inputs and latch-up immunity (>250 mA per JESD17) enable safe hot-plug operation in modular systems. However, OE pins must be held high (via pullup) during insertion to keep outputs in high-impedance state until host firmware initializes the interface.
