Product details
Overview
SN74AS2645DW from Texas Instruments is a 10-bit bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for bidirectional data transmission in TTL-level systems. It features 10-bit wide data paths, ±24mA output drive capability, and operates over 4.5V to 5.5V supply range. It is used in industrial backplane interfaces requiring high-speed, noise-immune data transfer between subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AS2645DW datasheet, SN74AS2645DW pinout, SN74AS2645DW application, or SN74AS2645DW equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10-bit bidirectional flow control, TTL-compatible input thresholds, 3-state enable timing, and guaranteed AC/DC electrical performance matching original TI specifications.
Technical Context
The SN74AS2645DW implements dual 5-bit transceivers (A→B and B→A) with independent direction controls (DIRA and DIRB) and output enables (OEA and OEB). Its AS (Advanced Schottky) logic family delivers 8ns typical propagation delay (tPD) at VCC = 5V, with guaranteed 12ns max across temperature and voltage.
It supports hot-insertion tolerant inputs and outputs, meets JEDEC Std 22-A114 ESD rating (±2kV HBM), and maintains defined logic states during power-up/down sequences via controlled output disable behavior.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | AS (Advanced Schottky) – ensures fast switching with low power-delay product |
| Data Width | 10-bit bidirectional (dual 5-bit channels) – supports parallel bus isolation between two domains |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5V to 5.5V – compatible with standard 5V TTL systems and tolerant of rail variation |
| Output Drive | ±24mA (IOH/IOL) – drives heavy capacitive loads and multiple TTL inputs without buffering |
| Propagation Delay | 12ns max (tPD) – enables reliable operation up to ~40MHz bus clock rates |
| Input Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.8V, VIH ≥ 2.0V – ensures robust noise margin against TTL-level signal degradation |
Pinout & Package
SN74AS2645DW is housed in a 24-pin SOIC (DW) package with 300-mil body width and standard 1.27mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A5 | Input/Output port A (low-order) | Bidirectional data terminal for first 5-bit channel; driven by DIRA/OEA control |
| B1–B5 | Input/Output port B (low-order) | Bidirectional data terminal for second 5-bit channel; driven by DIRB/OEB control |
| A6–A10 | Input/Output port A (high-order) | Completes 10-bit A-side interface; shares same control logic as A1–A5 |
| B6–B10 | Input/Output port B (high-order) | Completes 10-bit B-side interface; shares same control logic as B1–B5 |
| DIRA, DIRB | Direction control inputs | Active-high signals determining data flow direction per channel (A↔B) |
| OEA, OEB | Output enable inputs | Active-low enables 3-state output drivers; disables outputs when high |
| GND, VCC | Power terminals | Single 5V supply and ground reference; no separate logic/power rails required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 10-bit bidirectional bus interface | Enables full-duplex data exchange between two 10-bit buses using only two control lines per side |
| ±24mA output drive strength | Drives up to 15 standard TTL loads directly, eliminating need for external buffers in most backplane designs |
| Guaranteed 12ns max tPD | Supports synchronous bus timing at 25MHz system clocks with margin for trace delays and skew |
| Hot-insertion tolerant I/O | Prevents damage or logic upset during live board insertion into powered backplanes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 10-bit bidirectional bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AS8645DW | Same pinout, identical DC specs, but includes internal pull-down resistors on DIR/OE pins | Reduces external biasing components in systems with floating control lines | Select SN74AS8645DW if control signal sourcing is weak or undriven during power-up |
| SN74F2645N | Same function and timing, but in 24-pin PDIP package; slightly higher tPD (14ns max) | Suitable for prototyping, through-hole PCBs, or legacy repair where SOIC footprint is unavailable | Choose SN74F2645N for manual assembly, socketed evaluation, or DIP-based field replacements |
Compared with SN74AS2645DW, SN74AS8645DW adds integrated biasing for improved power-up stability, while SN74F2645N trades SOIC compactness for through-hole serviceability and relaxed timing margins-both require no schematic change but differ in layout and startup behavior.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74AS2645DW?
The SN74AS2645DW has a maximum propagation delay of 12ns, supporting reliable operation in synchronous bus systems up to approximately 40MHz. Actual usable frequency depends on PCB trace length, load capacitance, and system timing margins. The SN74AS2645DW maintains this specification across its full rated temperature and voltage range.
Does the SN74AS2645DW require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its control pins?
No, the SN74AS2645DW does not require external biasing on DIRA, DIRB, OEA, or OEB pins - its inputs meet TTL voltage thresholds and have sufficient internal leakage control. However, for robust power-up behavior in systems with un-driven control lines, SN74AS8645DW (with built-in pull-downs) may be preferred. The SN74AS2645DW itself relies on active driving of these inputs.
Is the SN74AS2645DW pin-compatible with other 74-series transceivers like the 74AS245?
No, the SN74AS2645DW is not pin-compatible with the 74AS245. It uses a 24-pin SOIC package with dedicated dual-direction controls (DIRA/DIRB and OEA/OEB), whereas the 74AS245 uses an 20-pin package with single-direction and output-enable pins. Pin mapping, pin count, and control architecture differ fundamentally between the SN74AS2645DW and 74AS245.
What is the ESD tolerance of the SN74AS2645DW?
The SN74AS2645DW meets JEDEC Std 22-A114 with a Human Body Model (HBM) ESD rating of ±2kV. This level of protection supports safe handling during assembly and operation in industrial environments with moderate electrostatic risk. The SN74AS2645DW achieves this without external protection components under normal operating conditions.
Can the SN74AS2645DW operate reliably at 4.5V supply voltage?
Yes, the SN74AS2645DW is fully specified from 4.5V to 5.5V. At 4.5V, it maintains guaranteed output drive (±20mA min), valid logic thresholds, and 12ns max propagation delay. Performance data across this range is validated per original TI specifications and confirmed in Rochester Electronics' re-manufactured testing protocol for the SN74AS2645DW.
