74VCX245
Low Voltage Bidirecti onal Transceiver
with 3.6V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
General Descript ion
The VCX245 contains eight non-inverting bidirectional buff-
ers with 3-STATE out puts and is intended for bus or iented
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 designed for low voltage (1.4V to 3.6V)
VCC applications with I/O compatibility up to 3.6V.
The 74VCX245 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS
technology to achieve high-speed operation while main-
taining low CMOS power dissipation.

Absolute Maximum Ratings(Note 5) Recommended Operating
Conditions (Note 7)
Note 5: The Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which
the saf ety of the device cannot be guarante ed. The device should not be
operated at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical
Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the Absolute Maximum Rat-
ings. The Recommended Operating Conditions table will define the condi-
tio ns f or actual device op eration.
Note 6: IO Absolute Maximum Rating must be observed.
Note 7: Floa t ing or unus ed inputs must be hel d HIGH or LOW.
