Product details
Overview
SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 from Texas Instruments is an octal noninverting bus transceiver with dual-supply voltage translation (2.3V–3.6V on A port, 3V–5.5V on B port), 3-state outputs, and VCC isolation. It enables bidirectional level shifting between 2.5V/3.3V and 3.3V/5V domains in real-time data buses, supporting up to 24mA drive strength at 3V and operating across –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 datasheet, SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 pinout, SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 application, or SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its glitch-free power sequencing, Ioff partial-power-down protection, VCCA-referenced control inputs, and robust 2000V HBM ESD rating - all critical for mixed-voltage industrial and medical bus interfaces.
Technical Context
The SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 implements asynchronous bidirectional data flow controlled by DIR and OE inputs powered solely from VCCA. Its dual-rail architecture isolates A- and B-port logic domains, allowing independent supply ramping without output glitches or false transitions.
VCC isolation activates when either VCCA or VCCB falls below 100mV or floats, forcing all I/Os into high-impedance state. Control input thresholds (VIH/VIL) are strictly referenced to VCCA, while A- and B-port I/Os track their respective supply rails - enabling reliable translation across 2.3V↔5.5V boundaries.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| A-port supply range | 2.3V to 3.6V - supports 2.5V and 3.3V logic domains with full functionality |
| B-port supply range | 3V to 5.5V - enables interface with 3.3V, 5V microcontrollers and peripherals |
| Output drive strength | 24mA at 3V - sufficient for driving heavier capacitive loads or multiple CMOS inputs |
| Propagation delay (A→B) | 1ns to 9.4ns - ensures timing-critical bus synchronization in high-speed digital systems |
| ESD rating (HBM) | ±2000V - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements per JESD22-A114 |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended industrial and medical equipment environments |
| Ioff leakage current | ±0.5μA max - prevents backflow current during partial power-down, protecting upstream circuitry |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 is packaged in a 24-pin SSOP (DB) package measuring 8.2mm × 7.8mm, with gull-wing leads and standard JEDEC MO-153 compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCA (Pin 1) | A-port power supply | Reference for A-port I/Os and control inputs (DIR, OE); must be stable before signal activity |
| DIR (Pin 2) | Direction control input | High = A→B data flow; Low = B→A data flow; referenced to VCCA voltage |
| A1–A8 (Pins 3–10) | A-port bidirectional I/Os | Track VCCA; tolerate input voltages up to VCCA + 0.5V (max 4.6V) |
| GND (Pins 11, 12) | Ground reference | Common return for both supply domains; requires low-inductance PCB connection |
| OE (Pin 22) | Output enable (active-low) | Drives all A/B ports to high-Z when high; referenced to VCCA |
| B1–B8 (Pins 14–21) | B-port bidirectional I/Os | Track VCCB; tolerate input voltages up to VCCB + 0.5V (max 6V) |
| VCCB (Pin 24) | B-port power supply | Reference for B-port I/Os; independent of VCCA for true level translation |
| NC (Pins 13, 23) | No internal connection | Unbonded die pads; must remain unconnected on PCB |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glitch-free power sequencing | Either VCCA or VCCB may power up/down in any order without causing spurious output transitions |
| VCC isolation | Automatically places all I/Os in high-impedance state if either supply drops below 100mV or floats |
| Ioff partial-power-down protection | Blocks damaging backflow current when one supply is off, enabling hot-swap capability |
| VCCA-referenced control inputs | DIR and OE thresholds scale with VCCA, eliminating need for external level shifters on control lines |
| 24mA output drive at 3V | Supports direct interface to legacy 5V TTL loads or multiple CMOS inputs without buffers |

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 domain translation; lacks 5V compatibility and supply-float protection | Choose when translating only between 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V domains with tight board space constraints |
| TXB0308RGER | Auto-direction sensing (no DIR pin), 3.6V max VCCA, no VCCB isolation threshold | Requires external pull-ups on B-side; less predictable timing in bidirectional burst traffic | Prefer for simple I²C/SPI extension where direction is infrequent and deterministic |
Compared with SN74AVC8T245RHLR and TXB0308RGER, the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 uniquely supports true 5V B-port operation with guaranteed VCC isolation and explicit DIR control - making it the only option for deterministic, high-drive, mixed-voltage industrial bus bridging requiring supply fault resilience.

FAQ
What voltage ranges does the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 support on its A and B ports?
The SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 supports 2.3V to 3.6V on the A port (VCCA) and 3V to 5.5V on the B port (VCCB). This allows bidirectional translation between common logic domains such as 2.5V ↔ 3.3V, 3.3V ↔ 5V, and 2.5V ↔ 5V. Both supplies operate independently, and the device remains functional across the full specified range without derating.
How does the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 handle power supply sequencing during system startup or shutdown?
The SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 features glitch-free power supply sequencing: either VCCA or VCCB can be powered on or off in any order without causing unintended output transitions. If either supply drops below 100mV or floats, all I/Os automatically enter high-impedance state - preventing bus contention and downstream device misbehavior during brownouts or hot-swap events.
Is the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 compatible with 5V-tolerant microcontrollers on the B port?
Yes - the B port of the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 is fully 5V-compatible, with absolute maximum input voltage rated to VCCB + 0.5V (up to 6V) and recommended operating range extending to 5.5V. It safely interfaces with standard 5V CMOS and TTL logic, including microcontrollers, FPGAs, and peripheral ICs, without external clamping or resistive dividers.
What is the role of the DIR and OE pins, and how are they powered?
DIR (direction control) and OE (output enable, active-low) are both powered from VCCA and referenced to its voltage. DIR selects data flow direction (Low = B→A, High = A→B), while OE disables all outputs into high-impedance state. Their VCCA-referenced design eliminates the need for external level shifters on control lines - simplifying system design when interfacing with 2.5V/3.3V controllers.
Does the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 support partial power-down operation?
Yes - the SN74LVCC3245ADBRE4 incorporates Ioff circuitry that disables outputs and limits input/output leakage to ±0.5μA max when either VCCA or VCCB is at 0V. This prevents damaging current backflow during partial power-down states, enabling safe hot-plug operation and reducing system-level power management complexity in modular designs.
