Product details
Overview
SN75454BD from Texas Instruments is a dual-peripheral NOR driver IC designed for high-current, high-speed switching in TTL-based systems. It delivers 300mA output current per channel, supports up to 30V off-state output voltage, operates over 0°C to 70°C, and features open-collector outputs with diode-clamped TTL-compatible inputs - used to drive lamps, LEDs, and high-voltage peripherals from microcontrollers.
For engineers reviewing the SN75454BD datasheet, SN75454BD pinout, SN75454BD application, or SN75454BD equivalent, this page provides verified functional mode tables, thermal derating data, latch-up immunity confirmation (20V/300mA), propagation delay specs (tPLH/tPHL ≤35 ns), and SOIC-8 package layout guidance for industrial buffer and peripheral driver designs.
Technical Context
The SN75454BD implements dual independent NOR logic gates whose outputs directly drive NPN transistor stages with internal base resistors. Each channel's output is open-collector, requiring external pull-up to VS (up to 30V), enabling level-shifting between 5V logic and higher-voltage loads.
It uses diode-clamped inputs to suppress negative transients and ensure robust TTL interfacing without external protection. The device avoids latch-up under 20V/300mA stress conditions and maintains stable operation across its full commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Dual NOR gate with internally connected outputs to NPN drivers - enables active-low load control per channel |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA per channel - sufficient to drive lamps, relays, or LED arrays without external amplification |
| Off-State Output Voltage | 30 V - allows direct interface to 24V industrial loads without level-shifting circuitry |
| Propagation Delay | ≤35 ns at VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C - supports high-speed digital buffering up to ~10 MHz |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - tightly regulated 5V TTL compatibility with low supply sensitivity |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level diode-clamped inputs - accepts standard 0.8V/2.0V VIH/VIL thresholds without external biasing |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 122.2°C/W (SOIC-8) - requires minimal heatsinking for continuous 300mA operation at ambient ≤50°C |
Pinout & Package
SN75454BD is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 4.90 mm × 3.90 mm, with standard gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant NiPdAu plating (MSL Level-1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A, 2A | Channel 1 & 2 Input A | First logic input per NOR gate - must be tied to GND or VCC if unused to prevent floating states |
| 1B, 2B | Channel 1 & 2 Input B | Second logic input per NOR gate - determines active-low output assertion (Y = NOT(A+B)) |
| 1Y, 2Y | Channel 1 & 2 Open-Collector Output | Sinks current to GND when asserted - requires external pull-up to VS (up to 30V) for load driving |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for logic inputs, supply, and output current - must be low-impedance |
| VCC | Positive Supply | 5V TTL supply input - bypassed with 0.1 µF capacitor near pin to suppress switching noise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No latch-up at 20V/300mA | Guarantees safe operation during transient overvoltage or overload events without destructive failure |
| Diode-clamped TTL inputs | Eliminates need for external clamping diodes or current-limiting resistors on logic lines |
| Open-collector outputs | Enables wired-OR logic, mixed-voltage interfacing, and direct connection to loads up to 30V |
| High-speed switching (≤35 ns) | Supports clean edge transitions in timing-critical buffers and address/data line drivers |
| Standard 5V supply compatibility | Integrates seamlessly into legacy TTL and mixed-logic systems without voltage translation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-NOR peripheral driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN75452BD | NAND logic function instead of NOR; identical pinout, SOIC-8 package, and electrical specs | Requires inverted input signals to achieve same load activation behavior as SN75454BD | Select when system logic naturally provides NAND-compatible control signals or when redesigning input staging |
| ULN2003A | Seven Darlington drivers (not logic-gated); higher saturation voltage (VCE(sat) ≈ 1.3V), lower max speed (~1µs), no logic inputs | Used for simple open-collector sinking without logic evaluation - no built-in NOR functionality | Choose for pure high-current sinking where logic gating is handled upstream; not a functional substitute for NOR decision logic |
Compared with SN75452BD and ULN2003A, SN75454BD uniquely integrates dual NOR logic with 300mA open-collector drivers in SOIC-8, enabling compact, self-contained load control decisions without external gates or level shifters - critical for space-constrained industrial I/O modules.

FAQ
What logic function does SN75454BD implement?
SN75454BD implements two independent NOR gates (positive logic: Y = NOT(A+B)), with each output driving an open-collector NPN transistor stage. When both inputs to a channel are low, the corresponding output sinks current; any high input forces the output high-impedance. This behavior is confirmed in Table 8-4 and Figures 8-4 and 8-8 of the official datasheet.
Can SN75454BD drive a 24V lamp directly?
Yes, SN75454BD can drive a 24V lamp directly using its open-collector outputs. Connect the lamp between VS (24V) and 1Y or 2Y, with GND completing the path. The device supports up to 30V off-state output voltage and 300mA continuous sink current per channel, making it suitable for incandescent and resistive lamps within those limits - as validated in Absolute Maximum Ratings and Figure 9-1.
Does SN75454BD require external pull-up resistors?
Yes, SN75454BD requires external pull-up resistors on pins 1Y and 2Y because its outputs are open-collector. The resistor value depends on load voltage (VS) and desired rise time; for 24V operation with moderate speed, a 4.7kΩ resistor is typical. This requirement is inherent to the open-collector architecture and explicitly shown in all application schematics including Figure 9-1 and Figure 8-9 through 8-12.
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN75454BD?
The maximum operating free-air temperature for SN75454BD is 70°C, as specified in the "Operating free-air temperature" row of Section 6.2 Recommended Operating Conditions. This distinguishes it from the military-grade SN55454B variant (–55°C to 125°C) and confirms its commercial-grade qualification - consistent across Device Comparison Table and Description sections.
Is SN75454BD pin-compatible with SN75451BD?
Yes, SN75454BD is pin-compatible with SN75451BD, SN75452BD, and SN75453BD - all share identical SOIC-8 (D) package, pin configuration (Figure 5-1), and pin functions (Table 5-1). Only the internal logic differs (AND/NAND/OR/NOR), allowing drop-in replacement when logic function matches system requirements - confirmed in Device Comparison Table and Pin Configuration section.
