Product details
Overview
SN74LVC162244DL from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit noninverting 3-state buffer/driver optimized for 2.7–3.6 V operation, featuring bus-hold inputs, integrated 26-Ω output series resistors, and ±12 mA drive capability at 3 V. It serves as a high-density memory address or clock driver in industrial control backplanes and data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC162244DL datasheet, SN74LVC162244DL pinout, SN74LVC162244DL application, or SN74LVC162244DL equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state timing (tdis/ten ≤ 10 ns), bus-hold functionality eliminating external biasing, output impedance matching for signal integrity, and thermal performance in DL-package applications requiring >1 W dissipation.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 4-bit buffers with symmetrical active-low OE inputs per group and true (noninverting) outputs. Each output includes on-die 26-Ω series termination to suppress overshoot/undershoot without external components.
Bus-hold circuitry actively maintains valid logic levels on floating inputs, and absolute maximum ratings support VCC up to 4.6 V with latch-up immunity exceeding 250 mA per JEDEC JESD-17 - critical for mixed-voltage board interfaces and hot-swap environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - ensures compatibility with 3.3 V LVTTL and mixed-supply systems |
| IOL / IOH | ±12 mA at VCC = 3 V - supports direct driving of multiple LVC/LVTTL loads without fanout buffers |
| tpd / tdis / ten | 1.5–8 ns (VCC = 2.7–3.3 V, CL = 50 pF) - enables reliable operation in sub-10 ns timing-critical buses |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±75 µA at VI = 2 V - maintains stable input state during power sequencing or unconnected traces |
| Output Series R | 26 Ω (typical) - reduces EMI and transmission-line reflections on PCB traces up to 10 cm |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial temperature range without derating |
| ICC (max) | 500 µA (active, one input at VCC–0.6 V) - enables low-static-power system-level standby modes |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVC162244DL uses a 48-pin plastic shrink small-outline (DL) package measuring 11.4 mm × 11.4 mm × 2.05 mm (300-mil body width), with 0.5-mm lead pitch and exposed pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE | Active-low output enable (per 4-bit group) | Independent control of each buffer quadrant; must be pulled high via resistor during power-up to ensure Hi-Z state |
| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4, etc. | Input terminals (16 total) | Bus-hold enabled; no external pullup/pulldown required even when unused |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4, etc. | True (noninverting) 3-state outputs (16 total) | Integrated 26-Ω series resistor per output; sinks/sourcing up to ±12 mA |
| VCC (Pins 7, 18, 31, 42) | Supply voltage | Four dedicated VCC pins reduce IR drop and improve noise immunity across wide bus |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 21, 28, 34, 39, 45) | Ground reference | Eight GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for all 16 drivers |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 26-Ω output series resistors | Eliminates need for 16 discrete SMT resistors, reducing BOM count and layout area by ~25 mm² |
| Bus-hold on all 16 inputs | Maintains valid logic state during hot-plug, test probe contact loss, or unpopulated slots without external biasing |
| Symmetrical active-low OE per 4-bit group | Enables granular bus partitioning - e.g., isolate memory address vs. data lanes without additional logic |
| Low ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V) | Prevents false triggering of adjacent CMOS inputs during simultaneous switching of ≥8 outputs |
| High noise immunity (VOHV > 2 V) | Ensures robust high-level recognition despite transient coupling on shared VCC/GND planes |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Interface | Memory Address Buffering |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Isolating CPU address lines from multi-slot industrial backplane with variable load capacitance and long trace runs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Noninverting 3-state buffer with per-group OE control, providing timing-aligned drive to up to 16 parallel slots.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-skew, noninverting driver with controlled edge rates (10 ns/V max dV/dt) minimizing jitter injection. Use Value: VOHV > 2 V and VOLP < 0.8 V maintain clean logic thresholds despite 100+ pF aggregate load and shared supply noise. |
Use Scenario: Interfacing 16-bit parallel ADC output to microcontroller in noisy factory-floor instrumentation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 3-state bidirectional-capable buffer (with OE-controlled direction) isolating ADC data bus during conversion cycles. Use Value: ±12 mA drive strength sustains signal integrity over 8-inch ribbon cable; bus-hold prevents metastability during sampling gaps. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244DGGR | Thin shrink small-outline (DGG) package; 1 W max power dissipation vs. 1.4 W for DL | Better suited for space-constrained designs but requires thermal derating above 65°C ambient | Select DGG for compact layouts; DL preferred where board-level heat spreading supports higher continuous drive |
| 74ALVC162244TTR | STMicroelectronics variant; identical logic function but lower IOL (8 mA @ 2.5 V) and no bus-hold | Requires external pullups on unused inputs; unsuitable for hot-plug or floating-bus scenarios | Use only in fixed-configuration systems with fully driven inputs and strict cost targets |
Compared with SN74LVC162244DL, the DGG alternative trades thermal headroom for footprint reduction, while the ALVC variant sacrifices bus-hold and drive strength - making SN74LVC162244DL the optimal choice for industrial backplanes requiring robustness, density, and plug-and-play reliability.

FAQ
What is the recommended power-up sequence for SN74LVC162244DL to ensure outputs remain in high-impedance state?
TI specifies that OE inputs must be held high during power-up to guarantee 3-state behavior. For SN74LVC162244DL, tie each OE pin (1OE–4OE) to VCC through a pullup resistor; minimum value is determined by the driver's current-sinking capability - typically 10 kΩ suffices for most applications. This prevents unintended output activation before system initialization completes.
Does SN74LVC162244DL support mixed-voltage interfacing, such as 3.3 V outputs driving 2.5 V inputs?
Yes, SN74LVC162244DL supports mixed-voltage operation: its VOH exceeds 2.4 V at VCC = 3.3 V and IOL = –6 mA, comfortably exceeding the VIH threshold (typically 2.0 V) of 2.5 V LVTTL or LVCMOS receivers. However, ensure the driven device's absolute maximum input voltage rating accommodates 3.3 V signals.
How does the bus-hold feature in SN74LVC162244DL affect input leakage current specifications?
The bus-hold circuitry in SN74LVC162244DL introduces ±75 µA hold current at VI = 2 V (per input), which is significantly higher than standard input leakage (±5 µA). This intentional current ensures stable logic retention but must be accounted for in ultra-low-power designs where cumulative leakage across 16 inputs could exceed 1.2 mA.
Can SN74LVC162244DL replace older 74ACT or 74AS logic in existing designs?
SN74LVC162244DL is not a direct drop-in replacement for 74ACT/74AS due to different VCC ranges (2.7–3.6 V vs. 4.5–5.5 V) and lower drive strength (±12 mA vs. ±24 mA). However, it can be used in upgraded 3.3 V systems where reduced power, smaller package, and bus-hold add value - provided level-shifting or redesign accommodates the voltage shift.
What is the thermal performance difference between SN74LVC162244DL and the DGG-package version?
SN74LVC162244DL has a higher thermal power limit: 1.4 W (at TA = 55°C, still air) versus 1 W for the DGG variant. This allows SN74LVC162244DL to sustain full 16-bit drive at elevated ambient temperatures without derating, making it preferable for thermally constrained industrial enclosures where airflow is limited.
