Product details
Overview
SN74LVCC3245ADBR from Texas Instruments is an octal noninverting bus transceiver with dual-supply level translation, supporting 2.3V–3.6V on A port and 3V–5.5V on B port, 24mA drive strength at 3V, VCC isolation, and 3-state outputs - used for bidirectional voltage-level bridging between 3.3V controllers and 5V peripherals in industrial power electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVCC3245ADBR datasheet, SN74LVCC3245ADBR pinout, SN74LVCC3245ADBR application, or SN74LVCC3245ADBR equivalent, key selection criteria include supply sequencing robustness, Ioff-enabled partial-power-down protection, glitch-free operation during asymmetric rail ramp-up/down, and verified 8-bit bidirectional translation across mixed-voltage domains.
Technical Context
The SN74LVCC3245ADBR implements independent A- and B-port supply rails (VCCA and VCCB), with control logic (DIR, OE) referenced exclusively to VCCA. Its bidirectional data flow is determined by DIR state, while OE enables/disables all I/Os into high-impedance mode - critical for bus isolation during hot-swap or low-power states.
VCC isolation ensures both ports enter high-Z when either VCCA or VCCB falls below 100mV or floats, preventing backdrive current. The device supports full Ioff functionality, limiting off-state leakage to ±2μA per I/O under partial power-down conditions - validated per JESD78.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| A-port supply range | 2.3V to 3.6V - enables direct interface with 2.5V/3.3V logic families without level-shifting circuitry |
| B-port supply range | 3V to 5.5V - supports legacy 5V peripherals and industrial microcontrollers |
| Drive strength | 24mA at 3V - sufficient to drive heavy capacitive loads (e.g., long PCB traces, multiple inputs) without signal degradation |
| Propagation delay | ≤9.4ns (A→B, VCCA=2.5V/VCCB=3.3V) - meets timing requirements for high-speed parallel bus applications up to ~100MHz |
| Off-state leakage (Ioff) | ±2μA max - prevents damaging back-current during system sleep or rail shutdown |
| ESD rating | ±2000V HBM - exceeds JEDEC JESD22-A114 for reliable handling in manufacturing and field service |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial ambient environments including solar inverters and medical imaging systems |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVCC3245ADBR is packaged in a 24-pin TSSOP (PW) with 7.8mm × 6.4mm footprint, optimized for space-constrained industrial PCB layouts and compatible with standard reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCA | A-port power supply | Reference for A-side I/O and control inputs (DIR, OE); must be stable before enabling operation |
| VCCB | B-port power supply | Reference for B-side I/O only; independent sequencing allowed due to glitch-free architecture |
| DIR | Direction control input | High = A→B data flow; Low = B→A; referenced to VCCA, not VCCB |
| OE | Output enable (active-low) | Pulls all A/B I/Os into high-impedance state when high; enables bus isolation during standby |
| A1–A8 | A-port bidirectional I/Os | Interface with 2.3V–3.6V domain; tolerate overvoltage up to VCCA + 0.5V |
| B1–B8 | B-port bidirectional I/Os | Interface with 3V–5.5V domain; tolerate overvoltage up to VCCB + 0.5V |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for both supply domains; requires low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling |
| NC | No internal connection | Pins 13 and 23 are unconnected - must remain floating or grounded per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-rail level translation | Enables seamless 3.3V ↔ 5V bidirectional communication without external translators or direction logic |
| Glitch-free power sequencing | Eliminates false data transitions during asymmetric VCCA/VCCB ramp-up or ramp-down - critical for system reliability |
| VCC isolation | Automatically places all I/Os in high-Z if either VCCA or VCCB drops below 100mV or floats - prevents backdrive damage |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Limits off-state leakage to ±2μA, allowing safe insertion/removal in live backplanes or modular systems |
| Robust ESD protection | ±2000V HBM and ±1000V CDM - reduces field failure risk in handling-sensitive industrial assembly lines |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional level translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AVC8T245RHLR | Single-supply (1.2V–3.6V), no VCCB rail; lower drive (12mA), no VCC isolation | Suitable only for sub-3.6V domains; cannot translate to 5V | Select when interfacing 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V buses only and space is constrained (QFN package) |
| TXB0108PWR | Auto-direction sensing (no DIR pin), 1.2V–3.6V I/O, no 5V support, higher propagation delay (26ns) | Requires no direction control logic but lacks deterministic timing for synchronous buses | Prefer for simple GPIO expansion where direction changes infrequently and 5V translation is unnecessary |
Compared with SN74AVC8T245RHLR and TXB0108PWR, SN74LVCC3245ADBR uniquely supports true 3V–5.5V B-port operation with guaranteed VCC isolation and sub-10ns propagation - making it the only viable option for industrial 5V peripheral interfacing requiring rail-agnostic sequencing and fail-safe isolation.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the B-port pins of SN74LVCC3245ADBR?
The absolute maximum voltage on any B-port pin (B1–B8) is VCCB + 0.5V, with VCCB rated up to 5.5V - meaning B-port pins tolerate up to 6V transiently. This overvoltage tolerance protects against overshoot during hot-swap events or ESD discharge, and is explicitly specified in Section 5.1 of the SN74LVCC3245ADBR datasheet.
Can SN74LVCC3245ADBR operate with VCCA = 2.5V and VCCB = 5V simultaneously?
Yes, SN74LVCC3245ADBR is fully specified for simultaneous operation at VCCA = 2.5V and VCCB = 5V. Electrical characteristics including VOHB (min 3.2V), VOLB (max 0.5V), and tPHL/tPLH (≤6ns) are validated under this condition per Section 5.6, enabling reliable 2.5V-to-5V and 5V-to-2.5V translation in real-world mixed-voltage systems.
Does SN74LVCC3245ADBR require specific power supply sequencing?
No - SN74LVCC3245ADBR features glitch-free power supply sequencing. Either VCCA or VCCB may be powered on/off in any order without causing output glitches or latch-up. This behavior is guaranteed by internal circuitry and confirmed in Section 7.4 of the SN74LVCC3245ADBR datasheet, eliminating sequencing constraints in complex multi-rail systems.
How does the VCC isolation feature function in SN74LVCC3245ADBR?
When either VCCA or VCCB drops below 100mV or is left floating, SN74LVCC3245ADBR automatically disables all A- and B-port outputs, forcing them into high-impedance state. This prevents backdrive current and unintended logic states - a hardware-enforced safety mechanism documented in Section 7.5 and Table 7-1 of the SN74LVCC3245ADBR datasheet.
What is the purpose of the NC pins on SN74LVCC3245ADBR?
Pins 13 and 23 on SN74LVCC3245ADBR are No-Connect (NC) terminals with no internal bonding. They must remain unconnected - neither tied to VCC nor GND - to avoid parasitic coupling or mechanical stress on the die. This requirement is explicitly stated in Table 4-1 and Figure 4-1 of the SN74LVCC3245ADBR datasheet.
