Product details
Overview
SN74LVT162240DLG4 from Texas Instruments is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit inverting buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for low-voltage bus driving and memory address buffering. It features four independent 4-bit sections, symmetrical active-low output-enable inputs (1OE–4OE), 22-Ω integrated series output resistors, ±12 mA drive strength, and mixed-mode 5-V input tolerance with 3.3-V VCC.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVT162240DLG4 datasheet, SN74LVT162240DLG4 pinout, SN74LVT162240DLG4 application, or SN74LVT162240DLG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin SSOP (DL) package, guaranteed operation from –40°C to 85°C, hot-insertion support via Ioff and power-up 3-state, and compatibility with 3.3-V systems interfacing legacy 5-V logic.
Technical Context
The SN74LVT162240DLG4 implements an Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) architecture optimized for 3.3-V operation with low static power dissipation. Its flow-through pinout minimizes trace routing complexity, while distributed VCC/GND pins reduce high-speed switching noise across all 48 terminals.
Each of the four 4-bit sections operates independently with inverting logic and active-low OE control. The device supports unregulated battery operation down to 2.7 V and provides TTL-level interface capability to 5-V systems through 5.5-V tolerant inputs and controlled output voltage swing (VOL = 0.8 V, VOH = 2.0 V at 3.3 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - enables stable operation under brown-out conditions and unregulated battery supply |
| IOH/IOL | ±12 mA - sufficient to directly drive standard TTL loads without external pull-ups or buffers |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows safe connection to 5-V buses without level-shifting circuitry |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.6 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - supports high-speed address/data bus timing in 100+ MHz systems |
| Output Series Resistance | 22 Ω integrated - eliminates need for external termination resistors and reduces overshoot/undershoot |
| Hot-Insertion Support | Ioff and power-up 3-state - prevents backflow current and bus contention during live insertion |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded and communications equipment |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVT162240DLG4 is housed in a 48-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP), designated DL, with 0.5-mm pitch, 12.4 mm × 6.2 mm body size, and 1.2 mm max height per JEDEC MO-153.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE–4OE | Active-low output-enable control inputs | Independent enable for each 4-bit section; asserted low places corresponding Y outputs in high-impedance state |
| 1A1–4A4 | Buffer input terminals (16 total) | Inverting data inputs; accept 5.5-V-tolerant signals while powered from 3.3-V VCC |
| 1Y1–4Y4 | Inverting buffered outputs (16 total) | Drive-strength-controlled outputs with integrated 22-Ω series resistance; sink/source up to 12 mA |
| VCC (Pins 7, 24, 31, 42) | Power supply connections | Distributed VCC pins minimize IR drop and improve noise immunity across high-speed switching |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 20, 27, 32, 39, 45) | Ground return paths | Eight dedicated GND pins reduce ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V) and enhance signal integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 22-Ω output series resistors | Eliminates external termination components, reduces PCB area, and suppresses transmission-line reflections |
| Mixed-mode signal operation | 5-V-tolerant inputs with 3.3-V VCC allow seamless interconnection between legacy and modern logic families |
| Flow-through architecture | Input-to-output pin alignment across package edges simplifies layer routing and minimizes trace length asymmetry |
| Distributed power/ground pins | Four VCC and eight GND pins lower impedance path to decoupling capacitors and reduce simultaneous switching noise |
| Power-up 3-state and Ioff protection | Ensures outputs remain high-Z during power ramp-up/down and blocks reverse current during hot-swap events |
Applications
| Memory Address Buffering | High-Speed Bus Transceiver |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit inverting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADLR | Non-inverting outputs; LVC family (lower drive: ±24 mA); no integrated 22-Ω resistors | Suitable for non-inverting bus hold or fanout expansion where polarity preservation is required | Select when inverting logic is not needed and higher drive current is acceptable |
| SN74ALVCH162244DGGR | Non-inverting; ALVCH family (3.3-V only, no 5-V input tolerance); 24 mA drive; no integrated series resistors | Better for pure 3.3-V systems requiring higher speed (tPD ≈ 3.2 ns) and lower ICC | Choose for new 3.3-V-only designs prioritizing speed and quiescent current over mixed-voltage interoperability |
Compared with SN74LVT162240DLG4, SN74LVC16244ADLR offers non-inverting logic and higher drive but lacks 5-V input tolerance and integrated termination; SN74ALVCH162244DGGR delivers faster propagation and lower power but requires strict 3.3-V signaling and external termination for clean edges.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for SN74LVT162240DLG4?
The SN74LVT162240DLG4 operates over a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V. This range supports unregulated battery-powered systems and accommodates typical 3.3-V rail tolerances. Operation below 2.7 V may result in undefined logic states or degraded timing performance, and operation above 3.6 V exceeds absolute maximum ratings and risks permanent damage. The device maintains full functionality-including 5.5-V input tolerance and 3-state behavior-across this entire range.
Does SN74LVT162240DLG4 support hot insertion?
Yes, SN74LVT162240DLG4 supports hot insertion via two complementary features: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging backflow current, and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance during power ramp-up/down. These functions are fully characterized and guaranteed per JESD78 Class II latch-up testing. For reliable hot-swap operation, ensure OE pins are pulled high via appropriate resistors before VCC reaches 1.5 V.
What package type is used for SN74LVT162240DLG4?
SN74LVT162240DLG4 uses the DL package: a 48-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP) with 0.5-mm lead pitch, 12.4 mm × 6.2 mm body dimensions, and 1.2 mm maximum height. It complies with JEDEC MO-153 and is supplied in tubes of 25 units. The DL package features gull-wing leads compatible with standard SMT reflow profiles and offers superior thermal performance (θJA = 63°C/W) compared to finer-pitch alternatives like DGV.
Can SN74LVT162240DLG4 interface directly with 5-V logic?
Yes, SN74LVT162240DLG4 can interface directly with 5-V logic: its inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level, and its outputs deliver TTL-compatible VOH ≥ 2.0 V and VOL ≤ 0.8 V when loaded with 12 mA. This eliminates external level shifters in mixed-voltage systems. However, outputs must not be driven by 5-V sources while the device is unpowered (VCC = 0), as Ioff protection only activates after power removal-not before.
What is the maximum propagation delay for SN74LVT162240DLG4?
The maximum propagation delay for SN74LVT162240DLG4 is 5.0 ns for tPLH and tPHL at VCC = 2.7 V, and 4.6 ns at VCC = 3.3 V (CL = 50 pF). These values are specified across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and represent worst-case delays from input transition to valid output transition. At typical conditions (VCC = 3.3 V, TA = 25°C), tPLH/tPHL is 2.5 ns, enabling reliable use in sub-200-MHz bus applications.
