Product details
Overview
SN74LVTH2245DWR from Texas Instruments is an octal bus transceiver designed for 3.3-V VCC operation with mixed-mode 5-V input/output tolerance, enabling TTL-level interfacing between 3.3-V and 5-V data buses. It supports bidirectional data flow (A↔B), features bus-hold on all data inputs, integrated 22-Ω B-port series termination, and Ioff/power-up 3-state for hot insertion in industrial backplane and legacy interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVTH2245DWR datasheet, SN74LVTH2245DWR pinout, SN74LVTH2245DWR application, or SN74LVTH2245DWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin SOIC-DW package, ±12 mA B-port drive capability, 2.7–3.6 V supply range, bus-hold functionality eliminating external resistors, and compliance with JESD 17 latch-up and JESD 22 ESD standards.
Technical Context
This device implements asynchronous bidirectional bus translation using two independent control signals: DIR selects direction (A→B or B→A), while OE enables/disables output drivers. The A-port supports ±64 mA drive strength at 3.3 V, whereas the B-port integrates 22-Ω series resistors to suppress overshoot/undershoot and is rated for ±12 mA.
It incorporates active bus-hold circuitry on all A- and B-port data inputs (±75 µA hold current at 3 V), Ioff protection limiting reverse current during power-down, and power-up 3-state behavior ensuring high-impedance outputs when VCC is below 1.5 V - critical for hot-swap and mixed-voltage system interoperability.
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 regulation circuitry. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 5.5 V max input voltage - enables direct connection to 5-V TTL buses without level-shifting components. |
| A-port IOL/IOH | 64 mA / −32 mA - sufficient to drive standard TTL loads and legacy logic families directly. |
| B-port Series Resistance | 22 Ω integrated - eliminates need for external series termination resistors on B-side traces. |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±75 µA at VCC = 3 V - actively holds floating inputs at valid logic levels, removing pullup/pulldown requirements. |
| tPLH/tPHL (A→B) | 1.1 ns to 5.3 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - ensures sub-6 ns propagation for high-speed inter-bus communication. |
| Latch-up Immunity | >500 mA per JESD 17 - guarantees robustness against transient-induced latch-up in noisy industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVTH2245DWR is housed in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package measuring 12.8 mm × 7.5 mm × 2.65 mm (max height), RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | A1–A8 inputs/outputs | Octal A-side bidirectional data terminals; support ±64 mA drive and bus-hold. |
| 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 | B1–B8 inputs/outputs | Octal B-side bidirectional data terminals; include 22-Ω series resistance and ±12 mA drive. |
| 9 | DIR | Direction control: low = B→A, high = A→B; TTL-compatible threshold (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V). |
| 19 | OE | Output enable: low = active, high = high-impedance; supports hot-insertion via Ioff and power-up 3-state. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and I/O circuits. |
| 20 | VCC | 3.3-V supply input; must be decoupled locally; device remains in high-Z state if VCC < 1.5 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode signal operation | 5-V tolerant inputs/outputs with 3.3-V VCC - enables seamless bridging between legacy 5-V and modern 3.3-V subsystems. |
| Integrated B-port series termination | 22-Ω on-chip resistors - reduce PCB component count and layout complexity for B-side trace impedance matching. |
| Active bus-hold circuitry | Holds unused A/B inputs at valid logic levels without external resistors - prevents floating-input metastability and EMI. |
| Hot-insertion support | Ioff and power-up 3-state - blocks damaging back-current during live board insertion and ensures glitch-free power sequencing. |
| Low ground bounce | VOLP < 0.8 V at VCC = 3.3 V - minimizes noise coupling into shared ground planes in dense digital systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC2245ADWR | No bus-hold; lower drive (±24 mA A-port, ±12 mA B-port); 1.65–3.6 V VCC. | Lacks active input retention - requires external pullups/pulldowns on floating lines; suited for cost-sensitive, non-hot-swap designs. | Select when bus-hold is unnecessary and wider VCC range (1.65 V) is required for ultra-low-power operation. |
| SN74AVC2245RHLR | Higher speed (tPD ≤ 3.2 ns); 1.2–3.6 V VCC; no integrated B-port resistors; no bus-hold. | Requires external 22-Ω series resistors on B-side; optimized for high-frequency DDR or memory interfaces, not legacy bus bridging. | Choose for sub-3.5 ns timing-critical paths where external termination is acceptable and lowest propagation delay is mandatory. |
Compared with SN74LVC2245ADWR and SN74AVC2245RHLR, SN74LVTH2245DWR uniquely combines 5-V I/O tolerance, integrated B-port termination, and active bus-hold - making it the only option among the three qualified for unregulated 2.7-V operation and hot-insertion in mixed-voltage backplanes.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for SN74LVTH2245DWR?
The SN74LVTH2245DWR supports a maximum input voltage of 5.5 V on all data and control pins, allowing direct connection to 5-V TTL logic without external level-shifting circuitry. This 5-V tolerance applies across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to 85°C) and is specified in the absolute maximum ratings table of the SCBS707E datasheet.
Does SN74LVTH2245DWR require external pullup or pulldown resistors on its data inputs?
No, SN74LVTH2245DWR does not require external pullup or pulldown resistors because it includes active bus-hold circuitry on all A- and B-port data inputs. This feature maintains unused or floating inputs at valid logic levels with ±75 µA hold current at 3 V, eliminating risk of metastability and reducing BOM count.
What is the purpose of the 22-Ω series resistance on the B-port outputs of SN74LVTH2245DWR?
The 22-Ω series resistance integrated into each B-port output of SN74LVTH2245DWR reduces signal overshoot and undershoot by damping transmission-line reflections on PCB traces. This eliminates the need for discrete series termination resistors, simplifying layout and improving signal integrity for B-side connections operating at frequencies up to 100 MHz.
How does SN74LVTH2245DWR support hot insertion in live backplane systems?
SN74LVTH2245DWR supports hot insertion through dual mechanisms: Ioff circuitry disables outputs during power-down to prevent damaging back-current, and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance mode when VCC is below 1.5 V. These features are validated per JESD 17 latch-up and JESD 22 ESD standards.
What package type and dimensions does SN74LVTH2245DWR use?
SN74LVTH2245DWR uses a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package with dimensions of 12.8 mm × 7.5 mm × 2.65 mm (maximum height). It is supplied in tape-and-reel format (2000 units per reel), RoHS-compliant, with NiPdAu lead finish and MSL Level-1 rating for unlimited floor life at 260°C peak reflow.
