Important notice
Dear Customer,
On 7 February 2017 the former NXP Standard Product business became a new company with the
tradename Nexperia. Nexperia is an industry leading supplier of Discrete, Logic and PowerMOS
semiconductors with its focus on the automotive, industrial, computing, consumer and wearable
application markets
In data sheets and application notes which still contain NXP or Philips Semiconductors references, use
the references to Nexperia, as shown below.
Instead of 74VHC245; 74VHCT245
Octal bus transceiver; 3-state
Rev. 01 25 August 2009 Product data sheet
1. General description
The 74VHC245; 74VHCT245 are high-speed Si-gate CMOS devices.
The 74VHC245; 74VHCT245 are octal transceivers featuring non-inverting 3-state bus
compatible outputs in both send and receive directions.
The 74VHC245; 74VHCT245 feature an output enable input (OE), for easy cascading,
and a send and receive direction control input (DIR).
OE controls the outputs so that the buses are effectively isolated.
