General Description
The VHCT245A is an advanced high speed CMOS octal
bus transceiver fabricated with silicon gate CMOS tech-
nology. It achieves high speed operation similar to equiv-
alent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining the CMOS
low power dissipation. The VHCT245A is intended for
bidirectional asynchronous communication between
data busses. The direction of data transmission is deter-
mined by the level of the T/R input. The enable input can
be used to disable the device so that the busses are
effectively isolated.
Protection circuits ensure that 0V to 7V can be applied to
the input and output
(1)
pins without regard to the supply
voltage. These circuits prevent device destruction due to
mismatched supply and input/output voltages. This
device can be used to interface 5V to 3V systems and
two supply systems such as battery back up.
Note:
1. Outputs in OFF-State
Ordering Information
Surface mount packages are also available on Tape and Reel. Specify by appending the suffix letter “X” to the
ordering number. Pb-Free package per JEDED J-STD-020B.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be
operable above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended.
In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability.
The absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only.
Recommended Operating Conditions
(5)
The Recommended Operating Conditions table defines the conditions for actual device operation. Recommended
operating conditions are specified to ensure optimal performance to the datasheet specifications. Fairchild does not
recommend exceeding them or designing to absolute maximum ratings.

AC Electrical Characteristics
Notes:
7. Parameter guaranteed by design. tOSLH = |tPLH max – tPLH min|; tOSHL = |tPHL max – tPHL min|
8. CPD is defined as the value of the internal equivalent capacitance which is calculated from the operating
current consumption without load. Average operating current can be obtained by the equation:
ICC (Opr.) = CPD • VCC • fIN + ICC / 8 (per F/F). The total CPD when n pcs. of the Octal D Flip-Flop operates
can be calculated by the equation: CPD (total) = 20 + 12n.
