Product details
Overview
SN74LVTH16245AZRDR 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. It is used in mixed-voltage backplane interfaces and memory expansion subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR datasheet, SN74LVTH16245AZRDR pinout, SN74LVTH16245AZRDR application, or SN74LVTH16245AZRDR equivalent, key selection criteria include 3.3-V operation with 5-V tolerant I/O, dual-directional 3-state control per octant, bus-hold on all data inputs, and thermal performance in high-density TSSOP packaging.
Technical Context
The SN74LVTH16245AZRDR implements two independent 8-bit transceiver sections (A↔B), each controlled by dedicated DIR and OE inputs. Its Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) enables TTL-compatible output drive at 3.3-V VCC while accepting 5-V inputs without level shifters.
Each port supports active bus-hold on all 16 data lines, eliminating external pullup/pulldown resistors. Power-up 3-state and Ioff circuitry ensure high-impedance outputs during power sequencing and prevent backflow current when powered down - critical for live-insertion systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - supports unregulated battery operation and brownout resilience |
| IOL / IOH Drive | 64 mA / –32 mA at VCC = 3.3 V - drives heavy capacitive loads and legacy TTL buses |
| VIH / VIL Thresholds | 2.0 V / 0.8 V - compatible with both 3.3-V CMOS and 5-V TTL logic families |
| tPLH / tPHL Propagation | 2.3 ns / 2.1 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 50 pF - enables >200 MHz bus toggle rates |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±75 µA minimum hold current - maintains valid logic state on floating inputs without external biasing |
| Thermal Impedance θJA | 58 °C/W (DGV package) - enables stable operation up to 85°C ambient in compact PCB layouts |
| Ioff Leakage | ±100 µA max at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap events |
Pinout & Package
The SN74LVTH16245AZRDR is packaged in a 48-pin TVSOP (DGV) with 0.4 mm pitch, 7.1 mm × 4.4 mm body, and 1.2 mm max height - optimized for high-density routing and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1DIR, 2DIR | Direction control input (per octant) | Determines data flow direction: LOW = B→A, HIGH = A→B |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output-enable input (per octant) | LOW enables outputs; HIGH forces high-impedance state |
| A1–A8, B1–B8 | Data I/O terminals (dual-octal) | Bi-directional data paths with always-active input receivers |
| VCC, GND | Power and ground (distributed) | Multiple VCC/GND pairs minimize switching noise and improve signal integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode I/O tolerance | 5-V input/output voltage compatibility with 3.3-V VCC - eliminates external level translators in hybrid-voltage systems |
| Bus-hold circuitry | Active on all 16 data inputs - removes need for external pullup/pulldown resistors and reduces BOM count |
| Hot-insertion support | Ioff and power-up 3-state ensure safe insertion into live backplanes without disrupting system operation |
| Flow-through pinout | Input-to-output alignment across package edges - simplifies PCB trace routing and minimizes layer count |
| Distributed power delivery | Four VCC and four GND pins - lowers simultaneous switching noise and improves EMI performance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVTH16245ADGVR | Same silicon, identical electrical specs; Pb-free finish, same DGV package | No functional difference - direct replacement for RoHS-compliant builds | Select SN74LVTH16245ADGVR if lead-free compliance is required and ZRDR marking is not mandated by procurement policy |
| SN74LVC16245APAG | Lower drive (24 mA), no bus-hold, 1.65–3.6 V VCC range, TSSOP-48 | Lacks hot-insertion support and 5-V tolerance - unsuitable for mixed-voltage backplanes | Choose only for cost-sensitive, single-supply 3.3-V-only systems where bus-hold and Ioff are unnecessary |
Compared with SN74LVTH16245ADGVR, the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR offers identical functionality with ZRD-specific top-side marking for traceability; versus SN74LVC16245APAG, it delivers higher drive strength, 5-V I/O tolerance, and integrated bus-hold - making it essential for robust mixed-voltage interconnects.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR?
The SN74LVTH16245AZRDR is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This industrial-grade range ensures reliable performance in factory automation, network equipment, and outdoor telecom enclosures without derating. The device's thermal impedance of 58 °C/W in the DGV package supports full-spec operation within this range under typical PCB copper pour conditions.
Does the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR support hot-plug insertion?
Yes, the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR supports hot insertion via integrated Ioff and power-up 3-state circuitry. When VCC is below 1.5 V, outputs remain in high-impedance state; above that threshold, OE must be pulled to VCC to guarantee isolation. This protects live backplanes from current backflow and driver conflicts during card replacement - a requirement verified per JEDEC JESD78.
Can the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR interface directly with 5-V logic devices?
Yes, the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR accepts 5-V inputs and drives 5-V loads while operating at 3.3-V VCC. Its VI input rating extends to 5.5 V, and VOH/VOL specifications are guaranteed under 5-V bus loading conditions. No external level shifters are needed - confirmed by TI's mixed-mode signal operation specification in SCBS143R.
What is the purpose of the bus-hold feature on the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR?
The bus-hold feature on the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR actively maintains the last-valid logic state on all 16 data inputs when left floating, eliminating the need for external pullup or pulldown resistors. It draws ±75 µA minimum overdrive current and prevents undefined states during power-up, configuration, or signal contention - reducing BOM cost and improving system robustness.
How many independent transceiver sections does the SN74LVTH16245AZRDR contain?
The SN74LVTH16245AZRDR contains two independent 8-bit transceiver sections (1A/1B and 2A/2B), each with dedicated DIR and OE controls. This allows asymmetric data flow - e.g., Section 1 transmitting A→B while Section 2 holds B→A - enabling flexible memory-mapped I/O partitioning in complex embedded systems.
