Product Overview

The SN74AXC4T245 is a Texas Instruments four-bit noninverting bus transceiver with configurable voltage translation and tri-state outputs. The A-port supply and B-port supply each operate from 0.65 V to 3.6 V, allowing translation between independent logic-voltage domains within the stated recommended operating range. The xDIR and xOE control inputs are referenced to VCCA, while the A-port I/O pins are referenced to VCCA and the B-port I/O pins are referenced to VCCB.

Output control is handled through 1OE and 2OE, where OE high places the outputs in tri-state mode. If either VCCA or VCCB is below the 100 mV isolation threshold, all I/O outputs are disabled and placed in high impedance. The device supports active output voltage from 0 to VCCO and tri-state output voltage from 0 V to 3.6 V.

Available packages are PW TSSOP-16 at 5 mm x 6.4 mm, BQB WQFN-16 at 3.5 mm x 2.5 mm, and RSV UQFN-16 at 2.6 mm x 1.8 mm. The device is specified for -40 °C to 125 °C operation and up to 380 Mbps translation from 1.8 V to 3.3 V.

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for SN74AXC4T245, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For analog and signal-chain sourcing, supply voltage, bandwidth, accuracy, noise level, package, temperature grade, input/output configuration and qualification requirements should be verified before approval.

FAQ

What type of device is the SN74AXC4T245?

The SN74AXC4T245 is a four-bit noninverting bus transceiver from Texas Instruments. It provides configurable voltage translation and tri-state outputs for interfaces using separate A-port and B-port supply domains.

What supply ranges does SN74AXC4T245 support?

Both the A-port supply VCCA and B-port supply VCCB are specified for 0.65 V to 3.6 V under recommended operating conditions. A-port I/O is referenced to VCCA, and B-port I/O is referenced to VCCB.

How do the output enable pins control the outputs?

The 1OE and 2OE pins control tri-state behavior. When OE is high, the outputs are placed in tri-state mode. The xOE and xDIR control inputs are referenced to VCCA.

What happens if one supply falls below the isolation threshold?

If either VCCA or VCCB is below 100 mV, all I/O outputs are disabled and placed in a high-impedance state. This behavior supports isolation during low-supply or power-off conditions.

Which packages are listed for the SN74AXC4T245?

The listed packages are PW TSSOP-16 measuring 5 mm x 6.4 mm, BQB WQFN-16 measuring 3.5 mm x 2.5 mm, and RSV UQFN-16 measuring 2.6 mm x 1.8 mm.
