Product details
Overview
SN74LVCZ245ANS from Texas Instruments is an octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data transfer between 2.7-V and 3.6-V buses. It supports mixed-mode signaling (5-V inputs with 3.3-V VCC), delivers 6.3 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V, and features Ioff and power-up 3-state for hot-insertion in backplane or modular system interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVCZ245ANS datasheet, SN74LVCZ245ANS pinout, SN74LVCZ245ANS application, or SN74LVCZ245ANS equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin SO (NS) package, ±24-mA drive strength at 3 V, 5.5-V tolerant inputs, and guaranteed high-impedance behavior during power sequencing - critical for FPGA-to-ASIC interconnects and legacy-to-modern voltage domain bridging.
Technical Context
This device implements dual-bus directional control via DIR input and output enable/disable via OE, enabling A→B or B→A data flow with isolation when OE is high. Its Ioff circuitry blocks current backflow during power-down, while power-up 3-state ensures outputs remain high-Z until VCC exceeds 1.5 V - eliminating bus contention during hot-swap events.
Input thresholds are fixed relative to VCC (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V), and output VOH/VOL specs are validated at both 2.7 V and 3.0 V supply levels. The 3.3-V typical ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V) and undershoot (VOHV > 2 V) values confirm robust noise margin in dense PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - defines valid operating window; operation outside this range invalidates timing and drive specs |
| Max tpd | 6.3 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - determines maximum achievable data rate in synchronous bus systems |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | 0 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interfacing with 5-V logic without level-shifting components |
| IOL/IOH | ±24 mA at VCC = 3 V - supports driving 50-Ω transmission lines or multiple CMOS loads per channel |
| Ioff | ±5 µA at VI/VO = 5.5 V - prevents damaging back-current during partial power-down in modular systems |
| Power-Up 3-State | Active below 1.5 V VCC - guarantees bus isolation during slow-ramp power delivery (e.g., sequenced supplies) |
| Latch-Up Immunity | >100 mA per JESD 78 Class II - ensures survivability under transient overvoltage or ESD stress |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVCZ245ANS uses a 20-pin SO (NS) surface-mount package (JEDEC MO-153 compliant), 7.5 mm × 12.8 mm body, 1.75 mm height, with 0.65 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DIR) | Direction Control Input | Low = B→A data flow; High = A→B data flow; determines signal path directionality |
| 2–9 (A1–A8) | Port A Data Inputs/Outputs | Bidirectional I/O pins connected to source bus; driven by or drive external logic |
| 10 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and I/O currents |
| 11 (VCC) | Supply Voltage | 2.7–3.6 V power rail; powers internal logic and output drivers |
| 12 (OE) | Output Enable Input | Low = outputs active; High = all A/B pins enter high-impedance state |
| 13–20 (B1–B8) | Port B Data Inputs/Outputs | Bidirectional I/O pins connected to destination bus; mirror A-side functionality |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-voltage interface support | 5-V-tolerant inputs with 3.3-V VCC enables direct connection between legacy 5-V peripherals and modern low-voltage controllers |
| Hot-insertion capability | Ioff and power-up 3-state eliminate bus conflicts during live module replacement in telecom or industrial backplanes |
| Low ground bounce & undershoot | Typical VOLP < 0.8 V and VOHV > 2 V at 3.3 V reduce switching noise coupling into adjacent signal or power nets |
| High noise immunity | Input hysteresis and 0.8 V/2.0 V thresholds provide ≥1.2 V noise margin across full VCC range |
| Low dynamic power | 42 pF power dissipation capacitance (enabled) and only 3 pF (disabled) minimize switching current in burst-mode applications |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Interface | FPGA-to-Microcontroller Bridge |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Connecting a 3.3-V FPGA I/O bank to a 5-V industrial PLC I/O module via shared backplane traces.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC245A | No Z-series noise-suppression features; higher VOLP/VOHV (1.2 V / 1.5 V typ); identical pinout and DC specs | Suitable where ground bounce is less critical; lacks Z-series enhanced EMI performance | Select SN74LVC245A only if cost sensitivity outweighs noise margin requirements in non-critical signal paths |
| 74ALVC245 | Wider VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); lower drive (±24 mA at 2.5 V); same 20-pin SO package | Better suited for ultra-low-voltage systems; not 5-V tolerant - requires external clamping for 5-V inputs | Choose 74ALVC245 only when operating below 2.7 V or when 5-V input tolerance is unnecessary |
Compared with SN74LVCZ245ANS, SN74LVC245A offers identical functionality but reduced noise suppression, while 74ALVC245 trades 5-V tolerance for lower-voltage operation - making SN74LVCZ245ANS the optimal choice for mixed-domain systems requiring robust EMI performance and hot-swap safety.

What is the maximum operating temperature range for SN74LVCZ245ANS?
The SN74LVCZ245ANS is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, matching the extended industrial temperature grade specified in its ordering information and absolute maximum ratings table. This range applies to continuous operation under recommended supply and signal conditions, and is validated across all electrical and switching parameters in the SCES275G datasheet.
Does SN74LVCZ245ANS support true 5-V input compatibility?
Yes, SN74LVCZ245ANS accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level, enabling direct connection to 5-V TTL or CMOS outputs without external level shifters. This 5-V tolerance is explicitly guaranteed in the "recommended operating conditions" and "absolute maximum ratings" sections of the datasheet.
Can SN74LVCZ245ANS be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes, SN74LVCZ245ANS incorporates both Ioff circuitry and power-up 3-state logic, which are explicitly designed for hot-insertion. These features prevent back-current flow and ensure outputs remain high-impedance during power-up/down, satisfying JEDEC-compliant hot-swap requirements in modular systems.
What is the pin count and package type of SN74LVCZ245ANS?
SN74LVCZ245ANS uses a 20-pin SO (NS) package - a narrow-body surface-mount small-outline integrated circuit conforming to JEDEC MO-153. Its dimensions are 7.5 mm × 12.8 mm with 0.65 mm lead pitch, and it is supplied in tape-and-reel format (2000 units per reel).
How does SN74LVCZ245ANS differ from standard SN74LVC245A?
SN74LVCZ245ANS includes Z-series enhancements: lower ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V vs. 1.2 V typical) and reduced output undershoot (VOHV > 2 V vs. 1.5 V typical), achieved via optimized output stage design. All other DC, AC, and functional specifications - including pinout, VCC range, and 5-V input tolerance - are identical to SN74LVC245A.
