Product details
Overview
SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel CMOS logic level shifter buffer with 5-pin SC70 package, supporting bidirectional voltage translation across 1.65V–5.5V VCC, 5V-tolerant inputs, and output drive up to 8mA at 5V. It enables reliable 1.2V-to-1.8V, 1.8V-to-3.3V, and 3.3V-to-5V up-translation and 3.3V-to-1.8V, 5V-to-3.3V down-translation in portable and telecom interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 datasheet, SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 pinout, SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 application, or SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated SC70 pin mapping, confirmed translation capability per VCC condition, thermal resistance (289.2°C/W), and real-world use cases in mixed-voltage I²C, UART, and GPIO interfacing where supply rail isolation and signal integrity are critical.
Technical Context
The SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 implements a non-inverting buffer with LVxT-enhanced input thresholds-VIH as low as 0.99V at 1.8V VCC and VIL as high as 0.8V at 3.3V VCC-enabling robust up-translation without external biasing. Its 5V-tolerant inputs accept signals beyond VCC, while output logic levels strictly track VCC, ensuring compatibility with downstream 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/5V CMOS loads.
It features balanced CMOS push-pull outputs capable of sourcing/sinking 3mA (1.8V), 5mA (2.5V), 7mA (3.3V), or 8mA (5V), with propagation delay under 7ns at 3.3V/15pF and characterized operation up to 50MHz. The device lacks enable control or 3-state functionality-its output is always active when powered.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65V to 5.5V - supports direct integration into multi-rail systems without level-shifting ICs upstream. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5V - allows connection to higher-voltage buses (e.g., 5V I²C) while operating from 1.8V or 2.5V supply. |
| Output Drive | 8mA at 5V VCC - sufficient to drive standard CMOS loads and reduce signal reflections on short PCB traces. |
| Propagation Delay | 4.0ns (typ) at 3.3V/15pF - enables reliable 25MHz digital signaling in timing-critical GPIO bridging. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood applications requiring extended thermal margin. |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±2000V - meets JEDEC JS-001 for robust handling in automated assembly and field-replaceable modules. |
| Input Capacitance | 2pF (typ) at 3.3V - minimizes loading on high-impedance source drivers like microcontroller GPIOs. |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar level-shifting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1T45DCKR | Direction-controlled dual-supply translator (A/B side); requires separate VCCA/VCCB rails and DIR pin management. | Used where bidirectional data flow (e.g., I²C) or independent rail control is needed; not suitable for fixed-direction buffering. | Select SN74LVC1T45DCKR only if direction flexibility and true bidirectional operation are required; SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 is simpler for unidirectional use. |
| TXS0102DCUR | Auto-direction-sensing 2-channel translator with integrated 10kΩ pull-ups; open-drain outputs; no push-pull drive. | Optimized for I²C bus extension; cannot source current or drive capacitive loads beyond 30pF reliably. | Choose TXS0102DCUR for I²C-specific applications; SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 provides stronger drive and deterministic timing for general-purpose GPIO translation. |
Compared with SN74LVC1T45DCKR and TXS0102DCUR, SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 offers the lowest component count and simplest layout for fixed-direction, single-channel translation-no direction control, no pull-ups, no dual supplies-while delivering higher output drive and tighter timing control.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of SN74LV1T34DCKRG4?
The SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 is characterized up to 50MHz at 3.3V VCC with 15pF load, achieving typical propagation delay of 4.0ns. At 1.8V VCC, it supports up to 15MHz with 13ns typical tpd. These values are measured under recommended operating conditions and reflect guaranteed performance across –40°C to +125°C.
Can SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 translate 5V signals down to 1.8V?
Yes, SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 supports down-translation from 5V to 1.8V when powered from 1.8V VCC. Its 5V-tolerant input accepts 5V logic-high signals, and its output swings rail-to-rail between 0V and 1.8V. VIH(min) at 1.8V VCC is 0.95V, providing 4.05V noise margin for 5V input detection.
Is SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 pin-compatible with other LV1T-series devices?
Yes, SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 shares identical SC70-5 (DCK) pinout with SN74LV1T00, SN74LV1T04, SN74LV1T17, and other LV1Txx devices in the same package. Pin 1 is NC, Pin 2 is input, Pin 3 is GND, Pin 4 is output, and Pin 5 is VCC-enabling footprint reuse across functionally distinct single-gate logic variants.
Does SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors?
No, SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 does not require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its input or output. Unused input (Pin 2) must be tied to VCC or GND per TI recommendation, but the device has no internal weak pull-ups. Output (Pin 4) is actively driven and should not be left floating.
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 in SC70 package?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of SN74LV1T34DCKRG4 in the SC70-5 (DCK) package is 289.2°C/W, measured under standard JEDEC JESD51-2 conditions. This value assumes a 1-inch² copper pad on the PCB; actual thermal performance improves with enhanced copper area or thermal vias.
