Dual 8-bit translation transceiver for mixed-voltage buses
The CAVC8T245QRHLRQ1: Each of the two 8-bit elements can be configured independently for direction and output enable, making it a flexible bus translator for mixed-voltage interfaces like SPI, I2C, or parallel memory buses.
12 mA output drive — fan-out and signal integrity
If you are running a bus with more than a few loads or a long stub, budget for signal-integrity checks — the 12 mA drive is not a high-current bus transceiver, but it is typical for a translation buffer in a mixed-voltage system. The 3-state outputs let you share the bus with other drivers without contention.
Package and footprint — 24-VFQFN with exposed pad
That pad needs a soldered connection to the PCB ground plane for heat dissipation — not optional if you are running near the temperature limit or driving all outputs simultaneously. The small footprint means hand-rework is possible with a hot-air station, but it is not a socketed part you swap in the field without a reflow setup.
