Product details
Overview
SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade, single-bit, dual-supply bidirectional bus transceiver enabling voltage level translation between 1.1 V and 5.5 V domains. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, integrated dynamic pull-down resistors on I/Os, static pull-downs on DIR control, and supports up to 420 Mbps in 3.3 V → 5.0 V translation. It is used in automotive body control modules for interfacing low-voltage MCUs with higher-voltage sensors or actuators.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 datasheet, SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 pinout, SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 application, or SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 equivalent, key selection considerations include VCCA/VCCB supply independence, Ioff-float isolation behavior, propagation delay vs. voltage/temperature, Schmitt-trigger hysteresis (ΔVT ≥ 0.2 V), and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for –40°C to +125°C operation.
Technical Context
The SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 implements a noninverting bidirectional translation architecture where DIR referenced to VCCA controls data flow direction: high enables A→B, low enables B→A. Both A and B ports accept 1.1 V–5.5 V I/O voltages independently, with input thresholds (VT+, VT−) and hysteresis (ΔVT) defined per supply rail.
Its robust power sequencing tolerates arbitrary VCCA/VCCB ramp order. The VCC isolation feature activates when either supply drops below 100 mV, forcing I/Os into weak pull-down then high-impedance state-enabling safe partial-power-down without external circuitry. Ioff current remains ≤2.5 µA over full temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCCA / VCCB Range | 1.1 V to 5.5 V each - enables direct interface between 1.2-V logic and 5-V peripherals without external level-shifting components. |
| Max Data Rate | 420 Mbps (3.3 V → 5.0 V) - supports high-speed CAN FD auxiliary signaling or fast sensor data handoff in ADAS subsystems. |
| Propagation Delay | 1 ns (min) to 15 ns (max) at 3.3 V - ensures timing-critical bidirectional communication meets setup/hold margins in real-time control loops. |
| Input Hysteresis (ΔVT) | ≥0.2 V across all VCC - rejects slow-rising or noisy switch inputs in cabin control panels or door latch monitoring. |
| Ioff Current | ≤2.5 µA (–40°C to +125°C) - guarantees negligible leakage during MCU sleep modes, preserving battery life in always-on vehicle networks. |
| ESD Rating | ±4000 V HBM, ±1000 V CDM - meets AEC-Q100 stress requirements for under-hood and infotainment ECU deployment. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for engine bay, transmission control, and front-end ADAS applications per AEC-Q100 Grade 1. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 is packaged in a 6-pin SC70 (DCK) package with nominal body size 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm, optimized for space-constrained automotive PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCCA | A-port supply reference | Supplies power and defines logic threshold for DIR and A I/O; must be stable before enabling direction control. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for both supply domains; requires low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce in bidirectional switching. |
| A | Bidirectional I/O (VCCA-referenced) | Connects to low-voltage domain (e.g., 1.8-V MCU GPIO); includes integrated dynamic pull-down for floating-input immunity. |
| B | Bidirectional I/O (VCCB-referenced) | Connects to higher-voltage domain (e.g., 3.3-V or 5-V sensor bus); operates independently of VCCA voltage level. |
| DIR | Direction-control input | Referenced to VCCA; high = A→B, low = B→A; includes static pull-down to prevent floating-state metastability. |
| VCCB | B-port supply reference | Defines logic thresholds for B I/O; independent of VCCA, enabling true dual-rail operation without shared supply constraints. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Configurable dual-rail operation | Independent VCCA and VCCB supplies (1.1–5.5 V) allow seamless interconnection of mixed-voltage SoCs, sensors, and legacy peripherals without external translators. |
| VCC isolation (Ioff-float) | When either VCCA or VCCB <100 mV, I/Os enter weak pull-down then high-Z state-preventing back-driving and enabling hot-swap capability in modular ECUs. |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Input hysteresis ≥0.2 V eliminates false triggering from mechanical switch bounce or EMI-coupled noise in cabin or chassis interfaces. |
| Integrated pull-down resistors | Dynamic pull-downs on A/B I/Os and static pull-down on DIR eliminate need for external biasing components-reducing BOM count and board area in cost-sensitive modules. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 certified with latch-up >100 mA and full-temp-range Ioff ≤2.5 µA-validated for safety-critical body electronics and powertrain sub-systems. |
Applications
| Body Control Module Interface | ADAS Sensor Hub Translation |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional level translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AXC1T45QDCKRQ1 | Lower ICC (1.5 µA max @ 125°C), identical pinout and function but uses advanced AXC process for reduced dynamic power. | Preferred for ultra-low-power always-on modules (e.g., telematics wake-up logic) where sub-µA sleep current is critical. | Select SN74AXC1T45QDCKRQ1 when optimizing for lowest possible quiescent current without changing layout or firmware. |
| TXS0101QPWRQ1 | Open-drain B port, push-pull A port; no Schmitt triggers; lower drive strength (8 mA); lacks Ioff-float isolation. | Suitable for simple 1.8-V ↔ 3.3-V I²C buffering but not for high-speed or noise-prone environments requiring hysteresis or robust isolation. | Choose TXS0101QPWRQ1 only for low-speed, low-noise I²C expansion where Schmitt inputs and Ioff-float are unnecessary. |
Compared with SN74AXC1T45QDCKRQ1, the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 offers higher drive strength (32 mA vs. 24 mA) and broader VCC tolerance (1.1–5.5 V vs. 0.65–3.6 V), making it more suitable for mixed-voltage actuator interfaces; versus TXS0101QPWRQ1, it provides deterministic noise immunity and fail-safe isolation essential for functional safety-critical paths.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported data rate for SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 in 3.3-V-to-5-V translation?
The SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 supports up to 420 Mbps in 3.3 V → 5.0 V up-translation mode, as specified in Section 6.12 of the datasheet under TMAX conditions with 50% duty cycle input and valid pulse thresholds. This performance is validated across –40°C to +125°C and applies specifically to the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 device in its SC70 package.
Does SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its I/O pins?
No, the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 integrates dynamic pull-down resistors on both A and B I/O pins and a static pull-down on the DIR input. These eliminate the need for external biasing components, reducing BOM count and PCB footprint-confirmed in the Features section and Table 5-1 of the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 datasheet.
How does the VCC isolation (Ioff-float) feature behave when VCCA is disconnected while VCCB remains powered?
When VCCA drops below 100 mV (e.g., disconnected) while VCCB remains active, the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 forces both A and B I/Os into a weak pull-down state and then transitions them to high-impedance. This prevents back-current flow and protects downstream circuitry-detailed in Section 8.3 and Table 6.5 (Ioff-float current ≤2.5 µA).
Is SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 compatible with legacy LVC-level shifters in pinout and function?
Yes, the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 is explicitly stated as compatible with the LVC family level shifters in the Features section. It shares identical 6-pin SC70 (DCK) pinout, same DIR-controlled bidirectional operation, and overlapping voltage ranges (1.1–5.5 V), enabling drop-in replacement in existing LVC-based designs without layout changes.
What is the input hysteresis (ΔVT) of SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 at 1.8-V supply, and why does it matter?
At VCCA = VCCB = 1.8 V, the SN74LXC1T45QDCKRQ1 exhibits ΔVT = 0.3 V (VT+ = 1.13 V, VT− = 0.83 V), per Table 6.5. This hysteresis rejects noise and contact bounce in mechanical interfaces-critical for reliable switch debouncing in automotive door modules or seat position sensors where signal integrity cannot rely on software filtering alone.
