Product details
Overview
SN74LVTH16245ADGVR 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 3.3-V and 5-V systems. It features bus-hold circuitry, Ioff support for hot insertion, distributed VCC/GND pins, and operates down to 2.7 V supply. Used in mixed-voltage backplane interfaces and memory expansion subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVTH16245ADGVR datasheet, SN74LVTH16245ADGVR pinout, SN74LVTH16245ADGVR application, or SN74LVTH16245ADGVR equivalent, key selection criteria include 48-pin TVSOP package compatibility, 3.3-V VCC with 5-V tolerant I/O, ±64 mA output drive, bus-hold functionality eliminating external resistors, and guaranteed hot-insertion behavior via Ioff and power-up 3-state.
Technical Context
The SN74LVTH16245ADGVR implements two independent 8-bit transceiver sections (A↔B), each controlled by dedicated DIR and OE inputs. Its Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) enables TTL-level interface compatibility while operating at 3.3 V, supporting mixed-mode signal operation with 5-V inputs/outputs and unregulated battery supply down to 2.7 V.
Input circuits remain always active; bus-hold logic maintains valid logic states on undriven A/B port inputs without external biasing. The device enters high-impedance state during power-up/down when VCC is below 1.5 V, and uses Ioff to block reverse current flow when powered off-critical for live system upgrades and modular backplanes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - supports battery-backed and low-noise 3.3-V rail designs with margin for droop |
| IOL / IOH Drive | 64 mA / –32 mA - sufficient to drive 50-pF loads at ≤4 ns propagation delay in 3.3-V systems |
| tPLH / tPHL | 2.3 ns / 2.1 ns @ VCC = 3.3 V - enables high-speed interconnect between FPGAs and ASICs in compact layouts |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±750 µA max - actively retains logic state on floating inputs, removing need for pullup/pulldown resistors |
| Ioff Leakage | ±100 µA @ VCC = 0 - prevents damaging backflow during hot-swap, protecting upstream drivers and power rails |
| VIL / VIH Thresholds | 0.8 V / 2.0 V - compatible with TTL input levels and robust against noise in industrial environments |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM - exceeds JEDEC standards for handling and board-level reliability |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVTH16245ADGVR is housed in a 48-pin Thin Very Small Outline Package (TVSOP, DGV), measuring 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm × 1.2 mm max height, compliant with JEDEC MO-153 and optimized for high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1DIR, 2DIR | Direction control input (per 8-bit section) | Determines data flow direction: LOW = B→A, HIGH = A→B; enables true bidirectional isolation |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output enable input (per 8-bit section) | Active LOW; places corresponding 8-bit port outputs in high-impedance state when HIGH |
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 | A-port data I/O terminals | Noninverting inputs/outputs for first and second octal data paths; always active, require defined logic level |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 | B-port data I/O terminals | Noninverting inputs/outputs mirroring A-port; support mixed-voltage interfacing up to 5.5 V |
| VCC, GND | Power and ground terminals | Distributed across package (12× VCC, 12× GND) to minimize simultaneous switching noise and ground bounce |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bus-Hold Circuitry | Eliminates external pullup/pulldown resistors on all A/B port inputs, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| Ioff and Power-Up 3-State | Guarantees high-impedance outputs during power sequencing, enabling safe hot insertion into live backplanes |
| Mixed-Mode Signal Operation | Accepts 5-V inputs and drives 5-V loads while powered from 3.3-V VCC-no level shifters required |
| Flow-Through Pinout | Input-to-output signal path traverses package linearly (e.g., 1A1 → 1B1), simplifying trace routing and impedance control |
| Distributed Power/Ground | Alternating VCC and GND pins reduce simultaneous switching noise and improve signal integrity at >100 MHz data rates |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16245ADGGR | Lower drive strength (24 mA sink/source), no bus-hold, LVC logic family instead of LVTH ABT | Suitable for lower-speed, lower-power 3.3-V-only systems without 5-V tolerance requirement | Choose when cost and static power are prioritized over mixed-voltage operation and hot-swap robustness |
| SN74AVC16245DGVR | Supports 1.2–3.6 V VCC range, higher speed (tPD < 2 ns), but lacks Ioff and bus-hold | Optimized for ultra-low-voltage mobile SoC interconnects, not industrial hot-swap or 5-V interfacing | Prefer for battery-powered applications needing dynamic voltage scaling, not for legacy system integration |
Compared with SN74LVC16245ADGGR and SN74AVC16245DGVR, the SN74LVTH16245ADGVR uniquely combines 5-V I/O tolerance, bus-hold, and Ioff-making it the only choice for reliable mixed-voltage hot-swap in industrial and telecom infrastructure.

FAQ
What voltage levels can SN74LVTH16245ADGVR tolerate on its I/O pins?
The SN74LVTH16245ADGVR accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V and drives outputs to 5-V logic levels while operating from a 3.3-V VCC supply. This mixed-mode capability allows direct interfacing with legacy 5-V peripherals without external level shifters, and is validated across the full –40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.
Does SN74LVTH16245ADGVR support hot insertion in live backplane systems?
Yes, SN74LVTH16245ADGVR supports hot insertion via two integrated features: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to prevent reverse current flow, and power-up 3-state ensures outputs remain high-impedance during power ramp-up. These are production-tested per TI's ABT process and documented in the SCBS143R datasheet.
How does bus-hold functionality work on SN74LVTH16245ADGVR, and why is it valuable?
SN74LVTH16245ADGVR integrates active bus-hold circuitry on all A/B port inputs, which applies ±750 µA of overdrive current to retain the last-valid logic state when inputs float. This eliminates external pullup/pulldown resistors-reducing BOM cost, PCB area, and potential noise coupling in high-density designs.
What is the maximum data rate supported by SN74LVTH16245ADGVR in a typical application?
While not specified as a serial data rate, SN74LVTH16245ADGVR achieves 2.1–2.3 ns propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) and <0.5 ns skew under 50-pF load conditions at 3.3 V. This supports reliable parallel bus operation up to 100–150 MHz clock frequencies in well-designed layouts with controlled impedance and proper termination.
Is SN74LVTH16245ADGVR pin-compatible with other packages in the LVTH16245A family?
Yes, SN74LVTH16245ADGVR shares identical pinout and function mapping with SN74LVTH16245ADGGR (TSSOP) and SN74LVTH16245ADL (SSOP)-all 48-pin packages with matching terminal assignments for DIR, OE, A/B ports, VCC, and GND. Mechanical dimensions differ, but PCB footprint design rules allow direct substitution with layout review.
