Product details
Overview
SN74LVT162240DLR from Texas Instruments is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit inverting buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for memory address and clock bus driving in mixed-voltage systems. It supports 5-V input compatibility with 3.3-V VCC, delivers ±12 mA drive strength per output, integrates 22-Ω series termination, and operates from –40°C to 85°C in a 48-pin SSOP (DL) package.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVT162240DLR datasheet, SN74LVT162240DLR pinout, SN74LVT162240DLR application, or SN74LVT162240DLR equivalent, key selection criteria include 3.3-V ABT logic family compatibility, hot-insertion support via Ioff and power-up 3-state, distributed VCC/GND for noise reduction, flow-through pinout for PCB layout optimization, and TTL-level interfacing capability with 5-V systems.
Technical Context
The SN74LVT162240DLR implements four independent 4-bit inverting buffers, each with symmetrical active-low output-enable (OE) control. Its Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) enables low static power at 3.3 V while maintaining TTL-compatible input thresholds and 5-V tolerant inputs.
It features built-in 22-Ω series output resistors to suppress overshoot/undershoot, distributed power/ground pins to minimize switching noise, and Ioff circuitry that disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current-enabling safe hot insertion into live backplanes or motherboards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - supports unregulated battery operation down to 2.7 V without functional loss |
| IOH/IOL | ±12 mA - sufficient to drive standard TTL loads or short PCB traces without external buffering |
| tPLH/tPHL | 2.5 ns to 5 ns @ VCC = 3.3 V - enables high-speed address or clock distribution in 100+ MHz bus systems |
| VIH/VIL | 2.0 V / 0.8 V - ensures reliable TTL-level signal recognition when interfacing with legacy 5-V logic |
| Input/Output Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V on inputs and outputs - allows direct connection to 5-V buses without level shifters |
| Ioff Current | ±100 µA @ VCC = 0 - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap events |
| Power-Up 3-State | Active below 1.5 V VCC - eliminates bus contention during power ramp-up or brownout |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVT162240DLR uses a 48-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP-DL), 12.6 mm × 6.1 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, with gull-wing leads and exposed pad not present. Pin 1 marked by beveled corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE | Active-low output-enable control for each 4-bit section | Independent gating enables selective bus isolation without affecting other channels |
| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4, 3A1–3A4, 4A1–4A4 | Buffer input terminals (16 total) | Inverting logic: low input → high output; high input → low output |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4, 3Y1–3Y4, 4Y1–4Y4 | Inverting buffered outputs (16 total) | Each output includes integrated 22-Ω series resistor for controlled edge rates |
| VCC (Pins 7, 18, 31, 42) | Supply voltage connections | Distributed VCC pins reduce simultaneous switching noise and improve PDN stability |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 21, 27, 32, 39, 45) | Ground return paths | Eight GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for all 16 drivers |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3.3-V ABT logic family | Combines BiCMOS speed with CMOS low static power - ICC < 0.2 mA in 3-state, 5 mA typical active |
| Mixed-mode signal operation | 5-V-tolerant inputs/outputs with 3.3-V VCC - eliminates need for external level translators in hybrid voltage systems |
| Integrated 22-Ω series output resistors | Reduces EMI and signal integrity issues - no external termination resistors required for point-to-point routing |
| Hot-insertion support | Ioff + power-up 3-state prevents backflow and bus conflict - certified for live insertion into powered backplanes |
| Flow-through pinout architecture | Inputs on one side, outputs on opposite side - simplifies layer routing and minimizes trace crossovers on dense PCBs |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADGGR | Non-inverting, LVC family, lower drive (±24 mA), no integrated series resistors | Lacks 5-V tolerance and built-in termination - requires external resistors for clean edges | Preferred when non-inverting logic and higher drive are needed, but adds layout complexity |
| SN74LVTH162240DGVR | Same pinout, TTL-output variant (higher VOL/VOH), identical ABT core and hot-swap features | Designed for stricter TTL-compatible VOH/VOL specs - better for legacy 5-V bus loading | Drop-in replacement where TTL-level output swing is mandatory; same DL/DGV/DGG footprint |
Compared with SN74LVC16244ADGGR, SN74LVT162240DLR provides guaranteed 5-V input tolerance and on-die termination, reducing BOM count and improving signal integrity. Against SN74LVTH162240DGVR, it shares identical functionality but differs in output voltage thresholds - the 'LVT' version targets general 3.3-V systems, while 'LVTH' targets strict TTL-compliant interfaces.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for SN74LVT162240DLR?
The SN74LVT162240DLR is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C, making it suitable for industrial and commercial environments. This range is specified per the SN74LVT162240 device grade (not the military-grade SN54LVT162240), and applies to all package variants including the DL SSOP used in SN74LVT162240DLR. Thermal performance is validated with θJA = 63°C/W for the DL package.
Does SN74LVT162240DLR support 5-V input signals while powered from 3.3 V?
Yes, SN74LVT162240DLR supports 5-V-tolerant inputs with VCC = 3.3 V. Its input voltage range extends to 5.5 V, and it maintains valid VIH (≥2.0 V) and VIL (≤0.8 V) thresholds under this condition. This capability is explicitly documented in the Recommended Operating Conditions table and enables direct interfacing with legacy 5-V logic without external level-shifting circuitry.
How does the integrated 22-Ω series resistor in SN74LVT162240DLR affect signal integrity?
The SN74LVT162240DLR includes an equivalent 22-Ω series resistor on each output, which damps signal reflections and reduces overshoot/undershoot on PCB traces up to ~10 cm in length. This eliminates the need for external series termination resistors, simplifying layout and reducing BOM cost. Measured output ground bounce (VOLP) remains below 0.8 V at VCC = 3.3 V, confirming effective edge control.
Can SN74LVT162240DLR be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes, SN74LVT162240DLR is fully specified for hot-insertion applications. Its Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0, preventing damaging back-current, and its power-up 3-state feature forces outputs into high-impedance during power ramp-up/down. These features are verified per JESD78 Class II latch-up and JESD22 ESD standards, and are explicitly called out in the device description and ordering information.
What is the pin configuration difference between SN74LVT162240DLR and SN74LVTH162240DGVR?
SN74LVT162240DLR (DL package) and SN74LVTH162240DGVR (DGV package) share identical pinout and function mapping - both follow the same Widebus™ 48-pin flow-through architecture with inputs on one side and outputs on the other. The only differences are package type (SSOP vs. TVSOP), marking (LVT162240 vs. LZ240), and output voltage specifications: 'LVT' guarantees 3.3-V compatible VOH/VOL, while 'LVTH' meets stricter TTL output thresholds.
