Product details
Overview
SN74LVC863APWT from Texas Instruments is a 9-bit bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data transfer between A and B buses in 1.65-V to 3.6-V systems. It supports mixed-mode operation (5-V inputs with 3.3-V VCC), features Ioff partial-power-down protection, and delivers 6.1 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V - used in voltage-level translation and bus isolation in industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC863APWT datasheet, SN74LVC863APWT pinout, SN74LVC863APWT application, or SN74LVC863APWT equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-directional 9-bit channel count, TVSOP-24 package footprint, 3.6-V absolute maximum input tolerance, Ioff-enabled power-down safety, and guaranteed 3-state output behavior during power sequencing.
Technical Context
This device implements independent OEAB and OEBA control pairs per direction, enabling simultaneous A→B and B→A data flow or full isolation via high-impedance outputs. Its logic diagram confirms noninverting signal path with separate enable terminals per bus side.
It uses LVC CMOS technology with rail-to-rail input voltage acceptance (0–5.5 V), specified for operation across –40°C to +85°C, and includes robust ESD protection (2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM) and latch-up immunity (>250 mA per JESD 17).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - enables direct integration into modern low-voltage logic domains without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows safe interfacing with legacy 5-V peripherals while powered from 3.3-V rails. |
| Max Propagation Delay | 6.1 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - supports >100 MHz bus timing margins in high-speed digital backplane designs. |
| Ioff Current | ±10 µA at VI/VO = 5.5 V - prevents damaging backflow current during partial power-down, critical for hot-swap systems. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3 V - sufficient to drive standard 50-Ω transmission lines or fan-out to ≥10 LVC loads. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM - exceeds JEDEC JESD22-A114 requirement, reducing need for external protection in board-level ESD zones. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial ambient environments including factory automation and motor control enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVC863APWT is housed in a 24-pin TVSOP (DGV) package, 4.4 mm × 6.6 mm body size, 1.2 mm max height, 0.4 mm pitch, with pin 1 index area marked on top-side marking "LC863A".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 11, 13, 14, 2, 23 | OEAB1, OEAB2, OEBA1, OEBA2, A1–A9, B1–B9 | Directional output-enable controls and bidirectional data terminals - OEABx enables A→B flow; OEBAx enables B→A flow. |
| 12 | GND | Ground reference for all internal logic and I/O structures; must be low-impedance connection to minimize ground bounce. |
| 24 | VCC | Primary supply rail (1.65–3.6 V); decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 5 mm of this pin. |
| A1–A9 (pins 3–10, 15) | A-Bus I/O | 9-bit port connected to local subsystem; accepts 0–5.5 V inputs regardless of VCC level. |
| B1–B9 (pins 16–22, 15) | B-Bus I/O | 9-bit port connected to remote subsystem; outputs driven to VCC or GND with 3-state capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode signal operation | 5-V-tolerant inputs with 3.3-V VCC enables seamless bridging between legacy 5-V logic and modern low-voltage buses. |
| Ioff partial-power-down support | Prevents current backflow when VCC = 0 V, allowing safe insertion/removal in live-backplane applications. |
| High-impedance state during power sequencing | Outputs remain Hi-Z at power-up/down - eliminates bus contention and glitch propagation in multi-rail systems. |
| Low ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V) | Reduces noise coupling into adjacent signals and improves signal integrity in dense PCB layouts. |
| Latch-up immunity > 250 mA | Ensures robust operation under transient overvoltage or ESD events without destructive latch-up failure. |
