description
This 8-bit (octal) noninverting bus transceiver
contains two separate supply rails; B port has
V
CCB
, which is set at 3.3 V, and A port has V
CCA
,
which is set at 5 V. This allows for translation from
a 3.3-V to a 5-V environment, and vice versa.
The SN74LVC4245A is designed for asynchronous communication between data buses. The device transmits
data from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus, depending on the logic level at the
direction-control (DIR) input. The output-enable (OE) input can be used to disable the device so the buses are
effectively isolated.
The SN74LVC4245A pinout allows the designer to switch to a normal all-3.3-V or all-5-V 20-pin '245 device
without board re-layout. The designer uses the data paths for pins 2 11 and 14 23 of the SN74LVC4245A to
align with the conventional '245 pinout.
The SN74LVC4245A is characterized for operation from 40
C to 85
C.

Stresses beyond those listed under "absolute maximum ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "recommended operating conditions" is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES:
1. This value is limited to 6 V maximum.
2. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51.
