Product details
Overview
SN74LVCZ16240ADLR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit inverting buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for 2.7 V to 3.6 V VCC operation. It supports mixed-mode signal translation (5-V inputs with 3.3-V VCC), delivers 4.2 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V, and features Ioff and power-up 3-state for hot-insertion in memory address, clock, and bus-oriented systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVCZ16240ADLR datasheet, SN74LVCZ16240ADLR pinout, SN74LVCZ16240ADLR application, or SN74LVCZ16240ADLR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin TSSOP (DGG) package, ±24 mA output drive at 3 V, 5.5 V-tolerant inputs, and guaranteed high-impedance state during power-up/down transitions.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 4-bit inverting buffers, each controlled by a dedicated output-enable (OE) input. All inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, enabling seamless level translation between 5-V and 3.3-V domains without external components.
The Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current, while the power-up 3-state logic ensures outputs remain high-impedance until VCC exceeds 1.5 V-critical for live insertion into powered backplanes or hot-swap modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - defines valid supply window for guaranteed logic operation and output drive strength |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | 0 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interfacing with legacy 5-V logic without level shifters |
| Max tpd | 4.2 ns at 3.3 V, CL = 50 pF - ensures timing compliance in high-speed address/data bus applications |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at VCC = 3 V - supports driving multiple LVTTL loads or moderate PCB trace capacitance |
| Ioff | ±5 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging current flow during hot-insertion or partial power-down |
| ESD Protection | 2000-V HBM, 1000-V CDM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements per JESD22 |
| Latch-Up Immunity | >100 mA per JESD78 Class II - guarantees immunity to destructive latch-up under transient overvoltage |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVCZ16240ADLR uses a 48-pin TSSOP (DGG) package with 0.5 mm pitch, 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm body size, and 1.2 mm max height-optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.

| 1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE | Group Output Enable (active-low) | Individually controls 3-state mode for each 4-bit buffer group; OE = low enables outputs |
| VCC (Pins 7, 20, 31, 42) | Power Supply | Four distributed VCC pins reduce switching noise and improve power integrity across wide bus |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 27, 32, 39, 45) | Ground Reference | Seven GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for all 16 outputs and internal logic |
Key Features

| Configurable buffering | Four independent 4-bit sections allow flexible partitioning as 4×4-bit, 2×8-bit, or 1×16-bit drivers |
| Low dynamic power | 31 pF typical power dissipation capacitance per buffer (enabled) reduces switching current and EMI |
| Robust bus interface | Guaranteed 3-state behavior down to VCC = 0 V and latch-up immunity >100 mA meet industrial bus reliability standards |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for SN74LVCZ16240ADLR?
The SN74LVCZ16240ADLR is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, matching the industrial temperature grade specified in the SCES276D datasheet and validated across all electrical parameters including propagation delay, output drive, and 3-state leakage.
Does SN74LVCZ16240ADLR support hot-insertion, and how is it implemented?
Yes, SN74LVCZ16240ADLR supports hot-insertion via two integrated features: Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to prevent backflow current, and power-up 3-state logic that holds outputs high-impedance until VCC exceeds 1.5 V-both explicitly documented in the SCES276D datasheet.
Can SN74LVCZ16240ADLR interface 5-V inputs with a 3.3-V supply?
Yes, SN74LVCZ16240ADLR accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V while operating from a 2.7–3.6 V VCC, enabling direct connection to 5-V logic outputs without external level shifters-this mixed-mode capability is confirmed in the "Features" and "Recommended Operating Conditions" sections of the SCES276D datasheet.
What is the maximum output drive strength of SN74LVCZ16240ADLR at 3.3 V?
At VCC = 3.3 V, SN74LVCZ16240ADLR delivers ±24 mA output current per pin (IOH = –24 mA, IOL = 24 mA), as specified in the "Electrical Characteristics" table of SCES276D-sufficient to drive 10 LVTTL loads or moderate PCB trace capacitance.
Is SN74LVCZ16240ADLR pin-compatible with other 16-bit LVC buffers?
SN74LVCZ16240ADLR shares the same 48-pin TSSOP (DGG) footprint and pinout as SN74LVC16240ADGGR and SN74ALVCH16240DGGR, enabling drop-in replacement where Ioff and power-up 3-state are not required-but functional equivalence requires verification of enable logic polarity and output inversion behavior per application.
