Product details
Overview
SN74LVT16245BGQLR from Texas Instruments is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit dual-octal noninverting bus transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous bidirectional data transfer between mixed-voltage buses (3.3-V VCC with 5-V tolerant I/O). It features 56-ball VFBGA (GQL) packaging, ±64 mA output drive, 3.3 ns typical propagation delay at 3.3 V, and supports hot insertion via Ioff and power-up 3-state logic. It is used in high-speed backplane interfaces and FPGA-to-ASIC interconnects.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVT16245BGQLR datasheet, SN74LVT16245BGQLR pinout, SN74LVT16245BGQLR application, or SN74LVT16245BGQLR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 3.3-V ABT process enabling TTL-level compatibility, distributed VCC/GND pins for noise suppression, flow-through pinout for optimized PCB routing, and guaranteed operation down to 2.7 V for battery-backed systems.
Technical Context
The SN74LVT16245BGQLR implements two independent 8-bit transceiver sections (A↔B), each controlled by dedicated DIR (direction) and OE (output enable) inputs. Its Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) delivers low static power dissipation while maintaining TTL-compatible input thresholds and 5-V-tolerant I/O under 3.3-V supply.
Each port supports simultaneous input sampling regardless of output state, and the device enters high-impedance during power-up/down when VCC is below 1.5 V. Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current in hot-swap scenarios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - Enables stable operation across unregulated Li-ion battery discharge profiles. |
| IOL / IOH Drive | 64 mA / –32 mA - Sufficient to directly drive 50-Ω transmission lines or multiple TTL loads without external buffers. |
| tPLH / tPHL | 3.3 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V - Supports >150 MHz data rates in point-to-point or lightly loaded bus topologies. |
| VI Input Voltage | 0 V to 5.5 V - Allows direct interfacing with legacy 5-V logic without level shifters. |
| IOZPU / IOZPD | ±100 µA - Ensures reliable high-impedance state during power sequencing, eliminating bus contention risks. |
| θJA Thermal Impedance | 42 °C/W - Enables sustained operation at full drive strength in compact, thermally constrained layouts. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM - Meets industrial-grade robustness requirements for board-level handling and field deployment. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVT16245BGQLR uses a 56-ball Very Thin Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (VFBGA) package with 0.5-mm pitch, JEDEC MO-194 compliant, measuring 7.0 mm × 4.5 mm × 1.0 mm max height. Pin 1 is located at corner A1 (top-left, marked by chamfered corner per TI mechanical drawing MTSS003D).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1DIR, 2DIR | Direction control input (active-HIGH) | Determines data flow direction per 8-bit section: HIGH = A→B, LOW = B→A. |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output enable input (active-LOW) | Disables both ports' outputs to high-impedance when HIGH; enables when LOW. |
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 | A-port data I/O | Input/output terminals for first/second 8-bit bus segment; always active (no internal tri-state on input path). |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 | B-port data I/O | Input/output terminals for mirrored 8-bit bus segment; electrically identical to A-port. |
| VCC (12×) | Power supply | Distributed across package to minimize simultaneous switching noise and IR drop in high-speed operation. |
| GND (12×) | Ground reference | Strategically placed adjacent to VCC balls to form local decoupling loops and reduce ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V). |
| NC (8×) | No internal connection | Unbonded pads - must be left unconnected; not usable as thermal pads or test points. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode signal operation | 5-V-tolerant I/O with 3.3-V VCC eliminates need for external level translators in 3.3/5-V system boundaries. |
| Flow-through architecture | Input and output pins arranged on opposite sides of package - reduces trace crossovers and improves signal integrity in dense layouts. |
| Hot-insertion support | Ioff and power-up 3-state ensure zero current backflow and no bus conflict during live card insertion/removal. |
| Distributed VCC/GND pins | 12 VCC + 12 GND balls minimize high-frequency impedance and suppress ground bounce below 0.8 V (typical). |
| Latch-up immunity | >100 mA per JESD 78 Class II - guarantees robust operation in noisy industrial environments with ESD or surge events. |
Applications
| High-Speed Backplane Interface | FPGA-to-ASIC Data Bridge |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16245ADGGR | Lower drive (24 mA), 1.65–3.6 V VCC range, TSSOP-48 package | Not suitable for 5-V-tolerant interfaces; requires external level shifting for mixed-voltage systems | Select only if operating exclusively at 1.8/2.5/3.3 V and cost/size constraints favor TSSOP over VFBGA |
| SN74ALVC16245DGGR | Higher speed (2.1 ns typ), same VCC range, but no 5-V tolerance - absolute max VI = 4.6 V | Cannot interface directly to 5-V buses; risk of damage if connected to legacy 5-V peripherals | Choose only for pure 3.3-V systems demanding minimal propagation delay and lower ICC (1.5 mA typical) |
Compared with SN74LVC16245ADGGR and SN74ALVC16245DGGR, the SN74LVT16245BGQLR uniquely combines 5-V I/O tolerance, 64-mA drive, and VFBGA footprint - making it the sole option for space-constrained, mixed-voltage, high-drive industrial backplanes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the SN74LVT16245BGQLR?
The SN74LVT16245BGQLR is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, as confirmed in TI's SCBS715E datasheet Section "Recommended Operating Conditions." This range applies to commercial and industrial applications; the part is not qualified for extended temperature (–55°C to +125°C) operation like the SN54LVT16245B variant. Thermal derating is required above 70°C when driving full 64 mA loads due to θJA = 42 °C/W.
Does the SN74LVT16245BGQLR support true 5-V input tolerance?
Yes, the SN74LVT16245BGQLR supports input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level, as specified in the "Absolute Maximum Ratings" table (VI = –0.5 V to 7 V) and verified in electrical characteristics (VI = 5.5 V, II ≤ 20 µA). This allows direct connection to 5-V logic without external level shifters, a defining feature of TI's LVT-series ABT technology.
Can the SN74LVT16245BGQLR be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes, the SN74LVT16245BGQLR is explicitly designed for hot insertion, supported by two key features: Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V (preventing backflow current), and power-up 3-state logic that holds outputs in high-impedance during power ramp-up. Both are validated per JEDEC JESD78 latch-up testing and documented in the "Features" and "Description" sections of SCBS715E.
What is the ball pitch and package footprint of the SN74LVT16245BGQLR?
The SN74LVT16245BGQLR uses a 56-ball VFBGA package with 0.5-mm ball pitch, 7.0 mm × 4.5 mm body size, and maximum height of 1.0 mm. Mechanical dimensions are defined in TI's MTSS003D drawing, and land pattern recommendations follow IPC-7351 for 0.3-mm solder mask defined pads with 0.27-mm stencil apertures.
How does the flow-through pinout of the SN74LVT16245BGQLR improve PCB layout?
The SN74LVT16245BGQLR's flow-through architecture places A-port signals on one side and B-port signals on the opposite side, enabling straight-line trace routing without layer changes or vias between transceiver and connected ICs. This reduces crosstalk, maintains consistent characteristic impedance, and cuts layout time by ~30% compared to traditional "folded" pinouts - a benefit emphasized in TI's application guidance for high-speed bus design.
