Product details
Overview
SN74LVTH162244KR from Texas Instruments is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for mixed-mode interfacing between 3.3-V logic and 5-V systems. It provides true outputs, four independent 4-bit channels, symmetrical active-low output-enable inputs, and integrated 22-Ω series resistors to suppress overshoot/undershoot in high-speed bus applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVTH162244KR datasheet, SN74LVTH162244KR pinout, SN74LVTH162244KR application, or SN74LVTH162244KR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.7–3.6-V supply range, ±12-mA drive capability per output, hot-insertion support via Ioff and power-up 3-state, distributed VCC/GND pins for noise reduction, and flow-through pinout for optimized PCB layout.
Technical Context
The SN74LVTH162244KR implements a widebus architecture with four independent 4-bit buffer sections, each controlled by dedicated active-low OE inputs (1OE–4OE). Its ABT (Advanced BiCMOS Technology) design enables TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V) while operating at 3.3-V VCC, supporting direct connection to 5-V buses without level shifters.
Each output incorporates on-die 22-Ω series termination, eliminating external resistors and reducing signal integrity issues. The device features distributed power/ground pins, latch-up immunity >100 mA (JESD 78 Class II), and ESD protection exceeding 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, and 1000-V CDM.
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 with full functionality |
| IOH/IOL | ±12 mA - drives standard TTL loads directly; no external pull-ups required for bus termination |
| tPLH/tPHL | Typ. 3.4 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - enables high-speed data transfer in 100-MHz-class parallel interfaces |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V - ensures reliable recognition of 5-V TTL signals at 3.3-V supply |
| Output Series R | 22 Ω - integrated resistor reduces ringing and ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V at 3.3 V) |
| Ioff Current | ±100 µA at VCC = 0 - prevents backflow during hot insertion, protecting powered-down subsystems |
| θJA (DGG) | 70 °C/W - thermal performance suitable for dense PCB layouts without forced airflow |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVTH162244KR is packaged in a 48-pin TSSOP (DGG) with 0.5-mm pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, body dimensions 12.6 × 6.2 mm, height 1.2 mm max. Pinout follows flow-through architecture for minimal trace crossing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE–4OE | Active-low output enable | Independent control per 4-bit group; asserts high-impedance state when high |
| 1A1–4A4 | Data inputs | 16 total inputs; TTL-compatible thresholds allow direct 5-V signal acceptance |
| 1Y1–4Y4 | True buffered outputs | 16 outputs with 22-Ω series resistance; source/sink up to 12 mA each |
| VCC (Pins 7, 18, 31, 42) | Power supply | Distributed VCC pins minimize simultaneous switching noise across all 4 groups |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 21, 27, 34, 45) | Ground reference | Six GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for high-frequency switching currents |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 22-Ω output series resistors | Eliminates need for 16 discrete termination resistors, reducing BOM count and board area |
| Mixed-mode 5-V input tolerance | Accepts 5-V TTL signals at 3.3-V VCC without clamping diodes or external level translators |
| Hot-insertion support (Ioff + power-up 3-state) | Prevents current backflow and bus contention during live module replacement in backplane systems |
| Flow-through pinout architecture | Input and output pins arranged on opposite sides per group, enabling straight-layer routing and reduced crosstalk |
| Distributed VCC/GND pin placement | Reduces simultaneous switching noise by localizing power delivery per functional quadrant |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit buffer/driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADGGR | Lower drive (±24 mA), no integrated 22-Ω resistors, 1.65–3.6-V VCC range | Lacks built-in termination; requires external resistors for clean signal integrity on long traces | Preferred when cost sensitivity outweighs signal integrity needs and board space allows discrete termination |
| SN74ALVC16244DGGR | Higher speed (tPD typ. 2.5 ns), same VCC range, no integrated series resistors | Optimized for maximum throughput in short-trace, low-noise environments only | Select when system-level impedance control is handled externally and sub-3-ns latency is critical |
Compared with SN74LVC16244ADGGR and SN74ALVC16244DGGR, the SN74LVTH162244KR uniquely combines 5-V-tolerant inputs, integrated 22-Ω termination, and hot-insertion support-making it the only choice for robust, drop-in 3.3-V-to-5-V bus bridging in industrial backplanes and modular systems.

FAQ
What is the recommended operating voltage range for SN74LVTH162244KR?
The SN74LVTH162244KR operates reliably across a VCC 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 places outputs in high-impedance mode; above 3.6 V risks permanent damage per absolute maximum ratings.
Does SN74LVTH162244KR support 5-V input signals while powered at 3.3 V?
Yes, SN74LVTH162244KR accepts 5-V TTL input levels (VI up to 5.5 V) with VCC = 3.3 V. Its input structure includes clamp diodes rated for 5.5-V VI, enabling direct interface to legacy 5-V logic without external level-shifting circuitry.
How does the integrated 22-Ω series resistor in SN74LVTH162244KR improve signal integrity?
The SN74LVTH162244KR integrates a precise 22-Ω resistor in series with each output driver. This damps transmission-line reflections on PCB traces longer than ~1/6 wavelength of the signal edge rate, reducing overshoot, undershoot, and ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V), thereby eliminating the need for 16 discrete SMT resistors.
Can SN74LVTH162244KR be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes, SN74LVTH162244KR supports hot insertion via two mechanisms: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0, preventing backflow current into powered subsystems; and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance during power ramp-up/down, avoiding bus contention.
What package type and pin count does SN74LVTH162244KR use?
SN74LVTH162244KR uses a 48-pin TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) with JEDEC MO-153 compliance, marked as DGG package. Its dimensions are 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm × 1.2 mm max, with 0.5-mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads for standard reflow assembly.
