SN74HCT245NSR Übersicht

The Texas Instruments SN74HCT245NSR is an octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs designed for asynchronous two-way communication between data buses, housed in a 20-pin SOP (NS) surface-mount package. It operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply, delivers ±6mA output drive at 5V, and features a typical propagation delay of 14 ns.

An octal bus transceiver is a digital logic integrated circuit that buffers and transfers eight bits of data between two buses in either direction. As a member of the broader voltage-level-translation and buffer/driver family within the 74HCT high-speed CMOS-TTL-compatible logic series, it sits between bus masters (such as microcontrollers or FPGAs) and peripheral buses, providing drive strength, direction control, and high-impedance isolation.

Key features include an operating voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, high-current 3-state outputs that can drive bus lines directly or up to 15 LSTTL loads, and low power consumption with a maximum ICC of 80 uA. The device provides ±6mA output drive at 5V and a low input current of 1 uA maximum. Inputs are TTL-voltage compatible, allowing direct interfacing with 5V TTL logic and many 3.3V microcontroller outputs.

Architecturally, the SN74HCT245 uses a non-inverting 8-bit transceiver core with two control pins: DIR (direction) selects the data path (A-to-B or B-to-A), and OE (output enable) active-low pin places all outputs in the high-impedance 3-state condition. The HCT CMOS process combines the low static power of CMOS with TTL input thresholds, minimizing external timing requirements per the TI datasheet.

Typical applications include microprocessor and MCU peripheral bus isolation, memory and I/O expansion buses, backplane communication in industrial controllers, and 5V legacy system interfacing where TTL-compatible inputs are required.

For reliable operation, tie OE low through a pull-down resistor when unused, and place 0.1uF decoupling capacitors close to the VCC pin on both sides of the wide-body package.

Typische Anwendungen

SN74HCT245NSR ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Microcontroller Peripheral Bus Isolation, Industrial Backplane and PLC I/O Boards, Legacy 5V System Interfacing and Repair, Memory and SRAM Bus Expansion, Mixed 3.3V/5V Signal Interfacing (3.3V Source to 5V Load), LED and Relay Drive Glue Logic.

🔧

Microcontroller Peripheral Bus Isolation

The SN74HCT245NSR buffers an MCU general-purpose or memory-expansion bus with ±6mA per-pin drive, allowing eight lines to fan out to multiple peripherals without violating the controller output current budget. Its TTL-compatible inputs accept standard 5V MCU signaling, and DIR/OE control enables dynamic direction switching under software control. With a 14 ns typical propagation delay, it adds negligible timing to bus cycles up to tens of MHz. Placing the transceiver at the board edge also protects the MCU from hot-plug and back-drive events, since OE sets all outputs high-impedance during power sequencing or bus arbitration.

🏭

Industrial Backplane and PLC I/O Boards

In industrial controllers and PLC backplanes, buses cross long PCB traces and multiple card slots, requiring the 15-LSTTL-load drive capability of the SN74HCT245NSR to maintain valid logic levels. Its 4.5V to 5.5V supply tolerance accommodates noisy plant power rails, and -40C to +85C operation covers cabinet environments. The 3-state outputs allow multiple boards to share a common backplane bus, with each card's OE pin asserting only when addressed. The wide-body SOP-20 package offers 0.05-inch lead pitch that eases inspection and soldering on industrial assembly lines.

🖥️

Legacy 5V System Interfacing and Repair

Legacy industrial, telecom, and test equipment designs standardized on 5V TTL buses that the SN74HCT245NSR natively supports. Its TTL-voltage-compatible inputs make it a direct repair part for boards originally populated with 74LS245/74ALS245 devices, while cutting static power from milliwatts (bipolar) to the 80 uA maximum ICC of the HCT process. The 14 ns typical delay matches or improves on original LS-family timing, so retrofits do not perturb bus timing budgets. Reel packing (NSR suffix) suits volume refurbishment, and the pin-compatible family spans DIP for through-hole repairs.

💻

Memory and SRAM Bus Expansion

When expanding systems with SRAM, EEPROM, or parallel-flash devices, the SN74HCT245NSR isolates the data bus so multiple memory devices can share the same eight-bit bus with 3-state arbitration. The 1 uA maximum input current keeps loading negligible even with several transceivers cascaded, preserving signal integrity on long address/data runs. Its 14 ns typical tpd fits comfortably within 100 ns-class memory access cycles. OE gating from the memory chip-select ensures only the addressed device drives the bus, while DIR switches the data path between CPU writes and reads without external glue timing.

🧩

Mixed 3.3V/5V Signal Interfacing (3.3V Source to 5V Load)

Many modern MCUs and FPGAs operate at 3.3V but must drive 5V peripherals. The HCT input threshold (approximately 1.4V) accepts 3.3V logic highs as valid, so the SN74HCT245NSR powered at 5V translates 3.3V controller outputs to full-swing 5V signals - a one-directional level-shift function widely used in UART, SPI, and parallel-peripheral glue logic. The ±6mA output drive then meets 5V TTL load requirements. Designers should add a series-resistor or dedicated translator (e.g., LVC4245A) for the reverse 5V-to-3.3V direction, since 5V outputs exceed most 3.3V input ratings.

💡

LED and Relay Drive Glue Logic

The ±6mA outputs and 15-LSTTL-load capability of the SN74HCT245NSR make it useful as a segment driver bank for LEDs (through resistors), optocoupler input drivers, and relay-coil transistor pre-drivers on control boards. The 3-state outputs let firmware blank entire display or output banks during startup, avoiding spurious actuation. Its 5V supply aligns with standard relay/optocoupler logic rails, and the 80 uA maximum quiescent ICC keeps standby drain low in battery-backed control panels. Series gate resistors sized for 6mA per pin keep the device within recommended drive limits in continuous duty.

What is the operating voltage range of SN74HCT245NSR?
The SN74HCT245NSR operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply, per the TI SNx4HCT245 datasheet. It is designed for standard 5V TTL/CMOS systems, with TTL-voltage-compatible input thresholds and ±6mA output drive at 5V. It is not intended for 3.3V-only operation - use SN74LVC245A or SN74LVC4245A for mixed-voltage designs.
What is the difference between SN74HCT245NSR and SN74AHCT245NSR?
Both are octal 3-state bus transceivers in the same 20-pin SOP (NS) package and are pin-to-pin compatible. The SN74AHCT245 belongs to the newer AHCT family with faster typical propagation delay and lower dynamic power, while the HCT245 specifies typical tpd of 14 ns and 80 uA maximum ICC. For most 5V bus-buffering designs they are interchangeable drop-in replacements.
What is the best drop-in replacement for SN74HCT245NSR?
The best drop-in replacements are SN74HCT245NS, SN74HCT245NSRE4, and SN74HCT245NSRG4 - identical TI die and SOP-20 (NS) package with only packaging or ordering-code differences, so no PCB change is required. The SN74AHCT245NSR is also pin-compatible with faster timing. Cross-brand equivalents in SOP-20 exist from other 74HCT245 manufacturers, but pinout compatibility must be verified against their datasheets before substitution.
How do the DIR and OE pins work on the SN74HCT245?
DIR (pin 1) selects the data-transfer direction: DIR high drives data from A to B, DIR low drives from B to A. OE (pin 19, active low) enables the outputs; when OE is high, all eight outputs enter the high-impedance 3-state condition. According to the TI datasheet, this two-pin control scheme minimizes external timing requirements for asynchronous two-way bus communication.
Where can I download the SN74HCT245NSR datasheet PDF?
The official SN74HCT245NSR datasheet is available as a free PDF from Texas Instruments at https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74hct245.pdf. The document covers the SNx4HCT245 family including electrical characteristics, switching parameters, absolute maximum ratings, and the 20-pin package pinout. The same page also links ordering information and lifecycle data on TI.com.
Can SN74HCT245NSR be used for 3.3V to 5V level translation?
Yes, in one direction only. The HCT input threshold of about 1.4V accepts 3.3V logic outputs as valid high levels, so the SN74HCT245NSR can buffer 3.3V signals up to a 5V bus. However, driving a 3.3V input from a 5V HCT245 output exceeds most 3.3V device ratings, so bidirectional mixed-voltage translation requires a dedicated part such as SN74LVC4245A or TXS-family translators.
What is the price of SN74HCT245NSR?
As of 2026-09-14, distributor pricing for SN74HCT245NSR is approximately $0.42 at quantity 1, dropping to roughly $0.20 per unit at 1000 pieces on XAIPART. Distributor prices fluctuate frequently and are updated periodically; request a formal quotation for volume commitments since quotations typically expire after 5 days.
Is SN74HCT245NSR in stock and where can I buy it online?
Yes, SN74HCT245NSR is an active, current TI product listed as buy-now and ships-today on DigiKey, and is stocked by Mouser and XAIPART as of 2026-09-14. Stock levels fluctuate frequently; check the XAIPART product page or distributor inventory feeds for real-time availability, and consider the NS/N family variants if the SOP-20 reel quantity is unavailable.
What is the SN74HCT245NSR pinout in the SOP-20 package?
Pin 1 is DIR, pins 2-9 are A0-A7, pin 10 is GND, pins 11-18 are B7-B0, pin 19 is OE (active-low output enable), and pin 20 is VCC, according to the TI datasheet. This is the industry-standard 74HCT245 SOP-20 pinout shared by all same-package variants, so any pin-compatible SOP-20 HCT245 substitute uses the identical pin map.
How much current can each output of the SN74HCT245NSR drive?
Each 3-state output drives ±6mA at 5V per the TI datasheet, and the bus-oriented outputs can drive up to 15 LSTTL loads. Absolute maximum output current limits are higher, but sustained operation should stay within the recommended ±6mA. For heavier loads, parallel two outputs within the same direction or move to a dedicated line driver.
SN74HCT245 vs SN74HC245 - which is better for 5V microcontroller buses?
For interfacing with 5V TTL-level microcontrollers, the HCT245 is the safer choice because its TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH around 2V) guarantee noise margins with TTL-signaling drivers, whereas HC245 uses CMOS thresholds (VIH near 3.5V at 5V supply) that can be marginal with TTL outputs. Both come in the same SOP-20 footprint with 3-state outputs, so swapping is mechanical, not electrical, redesign.
Is the SN74HCT245NSR RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the SN74HCT245NSR is RoHS compliant and lead-free, as it is a current-generation TI logic product. The NSR suffix denotes the standard tape-and-reel packing of the RoHS SOP-20 (NS) package. Always confirm the exact compliance certificate (RoHS, REACH, halogen-free status) on the TI product page or via the shipped certificate of conformance for your lot.
What are the key specifications of SN74HCT245NSR engineers should know?
The SN74HCT245NSR is a TI octal bus transceiver with 3-state outputs in a 20-pin SOP (NS) package. Key specs: 4.5V to 5.5V operating range, ±6mA output drive at 5V, typical propagation delay of 14 ns, maximum ICC of 80 uA, 1 uA maximum input current, TTL-compatible inputs, capacity for 15 LSTTL loads, and -40C to +85C operation. It uses DIR and active-low OE control pins for asynchronous bidirectional bus communication.
What is the lead time for SN74HCT245NSR orders?
Because SN74HCT245NSR is an active, in-production TI logic device stocked at major distributors, lead time from stock is typically same-day to a few business days for reel and cut-tape quantities as of 2026-09-14. Factory-direct or large-volume orders may carry standard TI lead times of several weeks. XAIPART quotations are generally valid for 5 days, so confirm current stock before scheduling production.

Auswahlhilfe

Choose the SN74HCT245NSR when you need a 5V octal bus transceiver with TTL-compatible inputs, ±6mA drive for up to 15 LSTTL loads, and tape-and-reel packing for automated assembly. Select SN74HCT245NS for prototype or low-volume lots where tube/cut-tape packing suits hand assembly. The NSRE4/NSRG4 suffixes are functionally identical drop-ins for supply-chain flexibility. Choose SN74AHCT245NSR when bus speeds demand faster propagation delay or ±8mA drive - same footprint, no redesign. If your design runs at 3.3V or needs bidirectional mixed-voltage translation, do not use the HCT245; specify SN74LVC245A or SN74LVC4245A instead. For unidirectional buffering only, the SN74HCT244 saves the DIR control complexity. All SOP-20 variants listed here share the industry-standard 74HCT245 pin map, so footprint reuse across the family is safe.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale

  • TTL-compatible input thresholds (vs. SN74HC245 (CMOS-threshold equivalent))
  • Low static power consumption (vs. SN74HCT245NSRE4 (same die) vs legacy 74LS245)
  • Drop-in speed upgrade path (vs. SN74AHCT245NSR)

Designhinweise

Decouple the SN74HCT245NSR with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the VCC (pin 20) to GND (pin 10) path, plus one bulk 10 uF per group of four to six logic devices on the 5V rail. Because eight outputs can switch simultaneously, simultaneous-switching ground bounce is the primary noise mechanism; a solid ground plane under the wide-body SOP-20 and short return paths for A/B port traces keep glitches below TTL noise margins.

Route the A and B buses on adjacent layers with a ground reference plane between signal layers to control reflection on runs longer than about 10 cm. Keep the DIR and OE control traces away from clock lines to prevent false direction or bus contention glitches; a 10 kOhm pull-up on OE (to keep outputs disabled during reset) and a defined DIR level at power-up prevent bus fights when multiple transceivers share one backplane bus.

Never enable two transceivers driving the same bus simultaneously - brief OE overlap during direction changes causes shoot-through current and possible device stress. Insert a brief 3-state interval (OE high) between DIR transitions in firmware or logic. Also note this is a 5V-only device (4.5V to 5.5V): connecting a 5V output to a 3.3V input violates most modern MCU absolute maximum ratings, so choose LVC-family parts for bidirectional mixed-voltage buses.
