Product details
Overview
SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade single-channel CMOS buffer logic level shifter supporting bidirectional voltage translation across 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply rails. It performs Y = A buffering with 5.5 V-tolerant inputs, enables up-translation (e.g., 1.2 V → 1.8 V) and down-translation (e.g., 5.0 V → 3.3 V), and delivers ≤4.7 ns propagation delay at 5.0 V VCC for use in automotive body control modules requiring robust signal interfacing between mixed-voltage subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 datasheet, SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 pinout, SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 application, or SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (-40°C to +125°C), 5.5 V input tolerance, 150 Mbps data rate capability, LVxT enhanced input thresholds, and SC70-5 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 implements a single positive-logic buffer (Y = A) with supply-referenced CMOS outputs and asymmetric input threshold design: low VIH/VIL enables up-translation from sub-1.8 V sources, while 5.5 V-tolerant inputs support down-translation from higher-voltage domains. Its LVxT architecture eliminates external biasing components required by discrete resistor-based translators.
It operates across 1.6 V–5.5 V VCC with guaranteed switching performance up to 150 Mbps at 3.3 V/5.0 V, exhibits balanced push-pull drive (±15 mA output current at 3.3 V), and maintains stable logic states under automotive thermal stress via AEC-Q100-compliant thermal design (RθJA = 293.4°C/W in DCK package).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.6 V to 5.5 V - supports direct integration into 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V system rails without level-shifting circuitry |
| Input Tolerance | 5.5 V - allows connection to legacy 5 V logic without external clamping diodes or resistors |
| Propagation Delay | ≤4.7 ns at 5.0 V VCC, CL = 15 pF - enables reliable operation in high-speed automotive serial links (e.g., LIN, SENT, GPIO expansion) |
| Output Drive | ±15 mA at 3.3 V VCC - sufficient to directly drive LEDs, optocouplers, or CMOS inputs without external buffers |
| ESD Rating | HBM ±4 kV, CDM ±2 kV - meets AEC-Q100-002/-011 requirements for automotive ECU environments |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C (Grade 1) - qualified for under-hood and powertrain applications per ISO 16750-4 |
| Input Capacitance | 10 pF max at 3.3 V - minimizes loading on source drivers and preserves signal integrity in high-frequency paths |
Pinout & Package
SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 is packaged in a 5-pin SC70 (DCK) outline measuring 2.0 mm × 2.1 mm (body: 2.0 mm × 1.25 mm), optimized for compact automotive PCBs with tight thermal and space constraints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (N.C.) | No Connect | Unused internal pad - must remain unconnected; no routing or soldering required |
| 2 (A) | Input | Single logic input accepting 0–5.5 V signals; low-threshold VIH enables up-translation from 1.2 V/1.5 V/1.8 V sources |
| 3 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and output currents; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 4 (Y) | Output | CMOS push-pull output referenced to VCC; drives 1.8 V–5 V logic levels with matched sourcing/sinking capability |
| 5 (VCC) | Positive Supply | Single power rail defining output voltage swing and input threshold levels; requires local 0.1 µF bypass capacitor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive use from -40°C to +125°C junction temperature, including thermal cycling and humidity testing |
| LVxT Enhanced Input Thresholds | VIH as low as 1.1 V at 1.65 V VCC enables reliable up-translation from 1.2 V microcontrollers without signal degradation |
| 5.5 V-Tolerant Inputs | Accepts 5 V logic signals while powered from 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V rails - eliminates need for external voltage dividers or clamps |
| Bidirectional Translation Support | Configurable for both up-translation (1.2 V → 1.8 V, 1.8 V → 3.3 V) and down-translation (5.0 V → 3.3 V, 3.3 V → 1.8 V) via VCC selection |
| Low Static Current | ICC ≤ 10 µA at 1.8–5.5 V - reduces quiescent power in always-on vehicle subsystems such as door modules and lighting controllers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar logic level shifting applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1T45QDCKRQ1 | Bidirectional 3-state bus transceiver with direction control pin; requires external DIR signal routing | Supports bidirectional data flow (e.g., I²C, SPI), unlike unidirectional SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 | Select when protocol-level bidirectionality is needed; avoid if only unidirectional buffering is required due to added complexity |
| TXS0101QPWRQ1 | Auto-direction sensing with integrated 10 kΩ pull-up resistors; higher ICC (10 µA typical vs. 1 µA) | Designed for open-drain interfaces like I²C; not suitable for push-pull CMOS signaling without external pull-ups | Prefer for I²C/SMBus applications; unsuitable for high-speed GPIO or LED driving where low static current and push-pull drive are critical |
Compared with SN74LVC1T45QDCKRQ1 and TXS0101QPWRQ1, the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 offers lowest quiescent current, simplest unidirectional implementation, and highest speed for dedicated buffer applications - making it optimal for automotive GPIO expansion where direction control overhead and power budget are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1?
The SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 supports up to 150 Mbps at 5.0 V or 3.3 V VCC, verified under load capacitance ≤50 pF and operating temperature -40°C to +125°C. This performance is enabled by its optimized LVxT input structure and low-propagation-delay CMOS output stage, making SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 suitable for high-speed automotive GPIO, SENT sensor interfaces, and PWM-controlled lighting systems.
Can the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 translate 1.2 V inputs to 3.3 V outputs?
Yes, the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 supports 1.2 V to 3.3 V up-translation when powered from a 3.3 V VCC supply. Its LVxT-enhanced input thresholds (VIH = 1.45 V min at 3.3 V VCC) ensure reliable recognition of 1.2 V logic HIGH signals, and the output swings rail-to-rail to 3.3 V. This capability is explicitly validated in TI's SCLS903B datasheet and makes SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 ideal for interfacing ultra-low-power sensors with standard 3.3 V automotive microcontrollers.
Is the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 pin-compatible with other SC70-5 logic devices?
The SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 uses the standard SC70-5 (DCK) footprint with pin 1 (N.C.), pin 2 (A), pin 3 (GND), pin 4 (Y), and pin 5 (VCC). While mechanical pinout matches generic SC70-5 packages, electrical functionality (e.g., N.C. pin, LVxT thresholds, 5.5 V tolerance) is unique to this device. Substitution with non-LVxT SC70-5 buffers (e.g., SN74LVC1G34) would require redesign verification due to differing input voltage specifications and translation capability.
Does the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its input?
No, the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 does not require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its input (pin A) when actively driven, as its CMOS input has high impedance (<1 µA leakage) and defined VIH/VIL thresholds. However, unused inputs must never be left floating: if pin A is not used in a given design, it must be tied to VCC or GND. The SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 itself contains no internal termination resistors - external biasing is only needed for undriven or intermittently driven nodes.
How does the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 handle 5 V inputs while operating from a 1.8 V supply?
When powered from 1.8 V VCC, the SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 accepts 5 V inputs safely due to its 5.5 V-tolerant input structure, which includes integrated negative clamping diodes and current-limited input protection. The device correctly interprets 5 V as a logic HIGH (VIH condition met), and outputs a 1.8 V logic HIGH on pin Y. This down-translation capability is validated per AEC-Q100 and allows SN74LV1T34QDCKRQ1 to interface legacy 5 V automotive subsystems with modern 1.8 V domain controllers without external components.
