Product details
Overview
SN74AVCH2T45YZPR from Texas Instruments is a 2-bit, dual-supply bus transceiver enabling bidirectional voltage-level translation between 1.2V–3.6V domains (e.g., 1.8V ↔ 3.3V), with 3-state outputs, active bus-hold on all data inputs, and Ioff partial power-down protection. It operates in smartphones and portable computing systems where mixed-voltage interconnects require low-latency, low-power signal integrity.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR datasheet, SN74AVCH2T45YZPR pinout, SN74AVCH2T45YZPR application, or SN74AVCH2T45YZPR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.6V I/O tolerance, VCCA/VCCB isolation behavior, DIR-controlled directionality, NanoFree DSBGA-8 package footprint (1.89 mm × 0.89 mm), and guaranteed 240–500 Mbps data rates across voltage combinations.
Technical Context
The SN74AVCH2T45YZPR implements a true 2-rail architecture: A-port logic levels track VCCA (1.2V–3.6V), B-port levels track VCCB (1.2V–3.6V), and DIR is referenced to VCCA. Direction control is asynchronous-no clock required-and output enable/disable is implicit via DIR state, not a separate OE pin.
VCC isolation ensures both ports enter high-impedance when either VCCA or VCCB = GND; Ioff limits backflow current to ±5 µA per rail during partial power-down; bus-hold sustains un-driven A1/A2/B1/B2 at valid logic states without external resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range (VCCA, VCCB) | 1.2V to 3.6V each - enables universal level-shifting among 1.2V/1.5V/1.8V/2.5V/3.3V nodes |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 4.6V - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage peripherals without clamping diodes |
| Max Data Rate | 500 Mbps (1.8V→3.3V) - supports high-speed memory or interface bridging in compact devices |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 2.2 ns typical (VCCA=3.3V, VCCB=3.3V) - ensures sub-nanosecond timing margin for 450+ MHz buses |
| Ioff Current | ±5 µA max - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap or rail sequencing |
| Bus-Hold Strength | IBHL ≥ 25 µA (low), IBHH ≥ –25 µA (high) - eliminates need for external pull resistors on floating lines |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±8 kV - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements for handheld and embedded assembly |
Pinout & Package
SN74AVCH2T45YZPR uses the YZP package: 8-pin DSBGA (Die Size Ball Grid Array), 1.89 mm × 0.89 mm, bottom-terminal layout with 0.4 mm pitch. This NanoFree™ package eliminates traditional leadframe and mold compound, reducing parasitic inductance and thermal resistance (RθJA = 105.8°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCA | Supply for A-side I/Os and DIR input | Powers A1, A2, and DIR; defines A-port logic thresholds and output swing |
| VCCB | Supply for B-side I/Os | Powers B1, B2; defines B-port logic thresholds and output swing |
| GND | Reference ground | Common return path for both supply rails; required for stable bus-hold operation |
| A1, A2 | Bidirectional data I/O (A port) | Driven by VCCA; accept inputs referenced to VCCA; support bus-hold when floating |
| B1, B2 | Bidirectional data I/O (B port) | Driven by VCCB; accept inputs referenced to VCCB; support bus-hold when floating |
| DIR | Direction control input | Referenced to VCCA; low = B→A data flow, high = A→B data flow; no internal pull-up/down |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Configurable dual-supply rails | Independent VCCA and VCCB (1.2V–3.6V) enable arbitrary low-voltage node translation without external regulators |
| VCC isolation | Automatic Hi-Z on both ports if either VCCA or VCCB = GND - prevents false logic injection during power sequencing |
| Active bus-hold circuitry | Holds A1/A2/B1/B2 at valid logic states without external resistors - reduces BOM count and PCB area |
| Partial power-down (Ioff) | Blocks back-current flow when one rail is powered off - critical for hot-plug and dynamic power gating |
| NanoFree™ DSBGA package | Dies-as-package construction minimizes size (1.89 × 0.89 mm) and thermal resistance - ideal for space-constrained mobile designs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AVC2T245YZPR | Same YZP package, identical pinout, but includes dedicated OE pin for explicit 3-state control | Required where system-level software must independently gate transceiver outputs regardless of DIR state | Select SN74AVC2T245YZPR only if OE functionality is needed; SN74AVCH2T45YZPR offers simpler control with DIR-only operation |
| TXS0102DCUR | Auto-direction sensing (no DIR pin); lower drive strength (±8 mA vs ±12 mA); different DSBGA-10 package | Suitable for I²C/SMBus where direction is inferred from bus activity, not controlled externally | Choose TXS0102DCUR for self-clocking protocols; SN74AVCH2T45YZPR is preferred for synchronous, DIR-driven interfaces like memory or parallel buses |
Compared with SN74AVC2T245YZPR and TXS0102DCUR, SN74AVCH2T45YZPR delivers deterministic DIR-based direction control, highest drive strength (±12 mA), and smallest footprint (DSBGA-8), making it optimal for space-constrained, high-speed, explicitly controlled bidirectional links.

FAQ
What is the function of the DIR pin on the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR?
The DIR pin on the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR controls data direction: when DIR is low (≤ VCCA × 0.35), data flows from B-port to A-port; when high (≥ VCCA × 0.65), data flows from A-port to B-port. It is referenced to VCCA, requires no external pull-up/down, and enables fully asynchronous bidirectional translation without an OE pin. This behavior is confirmed in the functional table and timing diagrams of the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR datasheet.
Does the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR support level-shifting between 1.2V and 3.3V?
Yes, the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR supports bidirectional level-shifting between 1.2V and 3.3V: VCCA can be set to 1.2V while VCCB is 3.3V (or vice versa). Its 2-rail architecture and 4.6V I/O tolerance ensure safe operation, and switching characteristics confirm 240 Mbps performance in this configuration. This capability is explicitly validated in Section 5.6–5.10 of the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR datasheet.
Can the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR be used without external pull-up or pull-down resistors?
Yes, the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR integrates active bus-hold circuitry on all data I/Os (A1, A2, B1, B2), which maintains unused or un-driven inputs at valid logic states without external resistors. TI explicitly advises against adding pull resistors with this feature. Bus-hold current specifications (IBHL/IBHH) are provided in Section 5.5 of the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR datasheet.
What happens to the outputs of the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR if VCCA = GND but VCCB is powered?
If VCCA = GND while VCCB is powered, the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR activates VCC isolation: both A-port and B-port outputs enter high-impedance state regardless of DIR or input states. This prevents false logic from propagating and is guaranteed by the IOZ specification (±5 µA max) in Section 5.5 of the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR datasheet.
Is the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR compatible with the SN74AVC2T245YZPR in the same PCB footprint?
No, the SN74AVCH2T45YZPR and SN74AVC2T245YZPR share the same YZP-8 package and pinout (including identical ball map), making them mechanically and electrically drop-in compatible. Both use DSBGA-8 with 0.4 mm pitch and match pin-for-pin: VCCA, A1, A2, GND, DIR, B2, B1, VCCB. This compatibility is confirmed in TI's official package drawings and orderable part documentation for SN74AVCH2T45YZPR.
