Product details

The 2.7V–3.6V supply range is the first thing to check: this part is strictly a low-voltage device. 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.

It is not an automotive-grade part.

No LTB risk to plan for.

Frequently asked questions

Is 74ALVC162245PAG8 obsolete or nearing end of life?

No — the product status is Active. There is no end-of-life notice or last-time-buy schedule. It remains a current-production part.

What is the equivalent or alternative for 74ALVC162245PAG8?

A close functional peer is the 74FCT16245ATPAG8, which is also a 16-bit non-inverting transceiver with 3-state outputs in a 48-TSSOP package. 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.

Is 74ALVC162245PAG8 compatible with 5V logic inputs?

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.
