74VCX245 Low Voltage Bidirectional Transceiver with 3.6V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
74VCX245
Low Voltage Bidirectional Transceiver
with 3.6V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
General Description
The VCX245 contains eight non-inverting bidirectional buffers with 3-STATE outputs and is intended for bus ori ented
applications. The T/R
input determines the direction of data
flow. The OE
input disables both the A and B ports by plac-
ing them in a high impedance state.
The 74VCX245 is de sign ed for low voltage (1.65V to 3.6V)
V
CC
applications with I/O compatibility up to 3.6V.
The 74VCX245 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS
technology to achieve high-speed operation while maintaining low CMOS power dissipation.
Features
■ 1.65V-3.6V VCC supply operation
■ 3.6V tolerant inputs and outputs

Note 1: To ensure th e high impe dance state d uring power up and p ower
down, OE

value of the res istor is dete rmin ed by the curr ent sou rcing ca pabilit y o f the
driver.
