It will not tolerate a 5V rail, so if your legacy backplane runs at 5V, you need a level translator or a 5V-tolerant family like 74FCT. The output drive is specified at two levels — 12mA/12mA and 24mA/24mA — depending on the supply and load conditions. For a heavily loaded bus with multiple fan-outs, the 24mA option keeps signal edges clean without adding external line drivers. On a lightly loaded point-to-point link, the 12mA setting saves a few milliamps of dynamic current. ## Industrial temperature and package fit The -40°C to 85°C rating covers most factory-floor and outdoor telecom cabinets. It is not an automotive-grade part. ## Lifecycle and sourcing posture The 74ALVC162245PAG8 carries an Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant. There is no NRND flag, no last-time-buy notice, and no official successor — it remains a current-production part suitable for new designs and BOM freeze. No LTB risk to plan for.","metaTitle":"74ALVC162245PAG8 Transceiver, Non-Inverting, 3.6V, 48-TSSOP","metaDescription":"74ALVC162245PAG8 16-bit bus transceiver, 2.7V–3.6V supply, 12mA/24mA output drive, industrial temp -40°C to 85°C, 48-TSSOP.

The main difference: the 74FCT part runs at 4.5V supply versus the 74ALVC's 2.7V–3.6V range. If your design is 3.3V-only, the 74ALVC162245PAG8 is the correct fit; if you need 5V compatibility, the 74FCT16245ATPAG8 is the alternative."},{"question":"Is 74ALVC162245PAG8 compatible with 5V logic inputs?","answer":"No — the supply voltage is 2.7V to 3.6V, and the part is not specified as 5V-tolerant. Applying 5V to the inputs may exceed the absolute maximum ratings. Use a level translator or select a 5V-rated family such as 74FCT."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/renesas/74ALVC162245PAG8","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/renesas/74ALVC162245PAG8 when reusing this data.
