description A Dynamic Output Control (DOC) circuit is implemented, which, during the transition, initially lowers the output impedance to effectively drive the load and, subsequently, raises the impedance to reduce noise. Figure 1 shows typical VOL vs IOL and VOH vs IOH curves to illustrate the output impedance and drive capability of the circuit. At the beginning of the signal transition, the DOC circuit provides a maximum dynamic drive that is equivalent to a high-drive standard-output device.

This octal bus transceiver is operational at 1.2-V to 3.6-V VCC, but is designed specifically for 1.65-V to 3.6-V VCC operation. The SN74AVCH245 is designed for asynchronous communication between data buses. The device transmits data from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus, depending on the logic level at the
direction-control (DIR) input. The output-enable (OE) input can be used to disable the device so the buses are IE
effectively isolated. This device can be used as two 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit transceiver. It allows data transmission from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus, depending on the logic level at the direction-control (DIR) input. The output-enable (OE) input can be used to disable the device so that the buses are effectively isolated.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the operating temperature range for this device?
The SN74AVCH245 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
How can I ensure bus isolation when turning the device off?
Use the output-enable (OE) input. If powering down, OE should be tied to V through a pullup resistor.
Does this chip support multiple transceiving functions?
Yes, it can function as two 8-bit transceivers or one single 16-bit transceiver.
What mechanism reduces noise during data transmission?
The Dynamic Output Control (DOC) circuit lowers and subsequently raises the output impedance during signal transitions to reduce noise.
