Product details
Overview
SN74LV245ATDWR from Texas Instruments is an octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous two-way data communication between A and B buses in 4.5–5.5 V systems. It features direction control (DIR), output enable (OE), TTL-compatible inputs, 3.5 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, and Ioff support for partial-power-down mode.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LV245ATDWR datasheet, SN74LV245ATDWR pinout, SN74LV245ATDWR application, or SN74LV245ATDWR equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional bus isolation timing, 3-state output drive capability (±16 mA), mixed-mode voltage operation support, and SOIC-20 package compatibility with industrial temperature range (–40°C to 125°C).
Technical Context
This device implements dual-bus bidirectional data routing via a single DIR input that selects transmission direction (A→B or B→A), while OE independently places all eight channels into high-impedance state. The logic diagram confirms noninverting signal path per channel with no internal inversion.
It supports mixed-mode voltage operation across all ports, enabling interface between 3.3-V and 5-V domains when VCC = 5 V. Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs during power-down, preventing backflow current up to ±50 mA per output clamp rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across standard 5-V supply tolerances and brown-out margins. |
| tPD (Typ) | 3.5 ns at 5 V - Enables high-speed bus bridging in real-time control and data acquisition systems. |
| IOL / IOH | ±16 mA - Sustains robust drive strength for driving multiple CMOS loads or trace capacitance up to 50 pF. |
| VIH / VIL | 2.0 V / 0.8 V - Guarantees reliable TTL-level input recognition without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Ioff | <5 μA at 0–5.5 V - Prevents damaging current flow during hot-insertion or partial system power-down. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 125°C - Qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and extended-temperature embedded applications. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 1000-V CDM - Meets JEDEC JESD22-A114/A101 for board-level reliability in handling and assembly. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LV245ATDWR is packaged in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) with 1.27 mm pitch, 7.5 mm × 13.3 mm body, 2.65 mm max height, and RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish. Moisture sensitivity level is Level-1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Output Enable | Active-low global control: drives all A/B outputs to high-Z when high; must be pulled up to VCC for power-up safety. |
| 2–9 (A1–A8) | Port A Data Inputs/Outputs | Bi-directional I/O pins connected to A-side bus; direction determined by DIR state. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all I/O and supply currents; requires low-impedance PCB plane connection. |
| 11 (DIR) | Direction Control | High = A→B data flow; Low = B→A data flow; no internal pull-up/pull-down - external bias required. |
| 12–19 (B1–B8) | Port B Data Inputs/Outputs | Bi-directional I/O pins connected to B-side bus; functionally identical to A-port but electrically isolated. |
| 20 (VCC) | Supply Voltage | 5-V nominal power rail; decoupling capacitor (0.1 μF ceramic) required within 5 mm of pin for noise suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-Compatible Inputs | Accepts standard 3.3-V or 5-V logic thresholds without external translators - simplifies mixed-voltage interconnect. |
| Typical VOLP & VOHV | <0.8 V ground bounce and >2.3 V undershoot at 5 V - reduces signal integrity risk in dense PCB layouts. |
| 3-State Output Isolation | Simultaneous high-Z on all 16 I/Os via OE - enables multi-drop bus arbitration and prevents contention during reset. |
| Latch-Up Immunity | >250 mA per JESD17 - ensures robustness against transient overvoltage events in noisy industrial environments. |
| Partial-Power-Down Support | Ioff limits leakage to <5 μA when VCC = 0 - allows safe insertion/removal in live backplane or modular systems. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Backplane Interface | Automotive Body Control Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC245A | Wider VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); lower drive (±24 mA); no Ioff; max TA = 125°C. | Optimized for 3.3-V-only systems; lacks 5-V tolerance and partial-power-down protection. | Select when operating exclusively at 3.3 V and requiring higher drive strength without Ioff dependency. |
| 74ALVC245 | Same 1.65–3.6 V range; faster tPD (2.5 ns typ); no Ioff; max TA = 85°C; different AC characteristics. | Suitable for speed-critical 3.3-V designs where industrial temp range and power-down safety are secondary. | Prefer for high-frequency clock distribution or memory interface where propagation delay dominates over thermal spec. |
Compared with SN74LV245ATDWR, SN74LVC245A offers broader low-voltage compatibility but sacrifices 5-V operation and Ioff protection, while 74ALVC245 delivers superior speed at the cost of reduced temperature range and missing partial-power-down capability - making SN74LV245ATDWR uniquely suited for ruggedized 5-V mixed-signal systems requiring fail-safe power sequencing.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN74LV245ATDWR?
The SN74LV245ATDWR is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature, validated per TI's recommended operating conditions and qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control applications where thermal stress is critical. This specification applies specifically to the DW package variant as confirmed in the PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM.
Does SN74LV245ATDWR support mixed-voltage operation between 3.3-V and 5-V domains?
Yes, SN74LV245ATDWR supports mixed-mode voltage operation on all ports when powered at VCC = 5 V. Its TTL-compatible inputs accept 3.3-V logic levels directly, and outputs drive both 3.3-V and 5-V CMOS loads without external level shifters - a feature explicitly documented in the FEATURES section of the SCLS605D datasheet.
How does the Ioff feature function in SN74LV245ATDWR during power-down?
In SN74LV245ATDWR, the Ioff circuitry disables all outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting leakage current to ≤5 μA even if signals remain active on A or B ports. This prevents damaging backflow current through the device, enabling safe hot-swap and partial-power-down modes - a capability verified in Electrical Characteristics tables under Ioff test conditions.
What is the recommended PCB layout practice for SN74LV245ATDWR's VCC and GND pins?
TI specifies a 0.1 μF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed within 5 mm of SN74LV245ATDWR's VCC (pin 20) and GND (pin 10), with low-inductance vias to solid ground/power planes. The SOIC-DW package drawing (DW0020A) mandates symmetrical pad geometry and non-solder-mask-defined land patterns to ensure mechanical stability and thermal performance.
Is SN74LV245ATDWR pin-compatible with other members of the SN74LV245A family?
Yes, SN74LV245ATDWR shares identical pinout and functionality with all package variants (DB, DGV, NS, PW, RGY) of the SN74LV245AT family, including matching signal assignments for OE, DIR, A1–A8, B1–B8, VCC, and GND. This uniformity is confirmed in the top-view package diagrams and FUNCTION TABLE of the SCLS605D datasheet.
